octoturge 0e6a4aaa93 Record that this client cannot run behind pgCat 1.2.0, and stop lying about it
A real pooled database became available, so the deployment assumption in
src/db/index.ts - "points at pgCat/PgBouncer, so keep prepared statements
disabled" - was finally testable. It does not hold.

Through pgCat 1.2.0 an unparameterised `select 1` succeeds, and so does
`select count(*) from organisations`, but any query carrying a bind
parameter hangs forever. That is true with prepare:false, with
prepare:true, with fetch_types:false, and inside an explicit
transaction. The same queries straight at Postgres all pass, and psql's
\bind through the same pool returns its row, so the fault is specific to
how postgres-js frames those messages rather than to extended protocol.
Every Drizzle query binds parameters, so no subset of this app works
there. drizzle-kit hung at commit for the same reason - it builds its
own client and drizzle.config.ts cannot pass prepare:false - having
executed all 14 statements of 0000, which then rolled back.

Transaction-mode pooling itself was confirmed, not assumed: in one
client session consecutive statements hopped between server backends
while statements inside BEGIN..COMMIT stayed pinned to one.

So the comment now records what was measured, names PgBouncer as the
pooler this configuration actually suits, and says migrations go
straight at Postgres. dev-env.sh's note gets the same correction.

Two real bugs found on the way there:

- e2e-authz.sh and e2e-edge.sh hardcoded `psql -h localhost -U continuum
  -d continuum` while both read DATABASE_URL for the backend under test.
  Point DATABASE_URL elsewhere and the suite seeds fixtures into one
  database while exercising another - and its own failure message says
  "no database at $DATABASE_URL", naming a URL nothing ever tried. Both
  now use `psql "$DATABASE_URL"`.

- drizzle.config.ts fell back to port 6432, where nothing listens here,
  so a bare db:migrate failed confusingly. It now matches dev-env.sh's
  DEV_DATABASE_URL.

bun test 128 pass / 0 fail; e2e-authz.sh PASS with 68 checks against
local Postgres after the psql_q change. e2e-edge.sh was not re-run
because it drives the real printers, and its change is the same line.

continuum-backend

Cloud control plane for Continuum. Bun + ElysiaJS, PostgreSQL (via pgCat/PgBouncer, with pgvector for frame embeddings), Valkey Streams, and Cloudflare R2 storage.

Run

bun install
scripts/dev-env.sh up        # Valkey + Postgres/pgvector, and print the URLs
scripts/dev-env.sh schema    # apply drizzle/ - same as bun run db:migrate
cp .env.example .env         # fill in the URLs it printed, plus R2_*, SUPABASE_JWT_SECRET
bun run dev

scripts/dev-env.sh uses docker-compose.yml when a Docker daemon is answering, and falls back to the same two services from apt when there is no usable container runtime - some sandboxes cannot run Docker at all, because dockerd needs CAP_NET_ADMIN for its bridge and user namespaces to unpack an image, and neither can be granted from inside. scripts/dev-env.sh status says which backend is in use.

Schema changes go through migrations: edit src/db/schema/, run bun run db:generate, and commit the file it writes to drizzle/ along with the schema change. scripts/dev-env.sh push reshapes a local database straight from the schema with no migration file, which is faster while a table is still moving but records nothing and will drop a column to make things match - so generate before committing. drizzle/0000_*.sql creates the vector extension itself; that line is hand-added, since drizzle-kit does not emit extension statements and the migration would otherwise only apply to a database somebody had already prepared.

Test

bun test                 # unit + protocol contract tests, no services needed
scripts/e2e-edge.sh      # the whole edge path: real database, real printers

scripts/e2e-edge.sh seeds a farm, claims its printers, mints an edge token, runs the real continuum-proxy against this backend, and asserts that live telemetry reached Postgres and that a command reached a printer. It only ever sends a fan speed, and only to a printer reporting IDLE. scripts/capture-gateway-frames.js is the smaller tool: it stands in for this backend and records what a gateway sends, for refreshing the fixtures in tests/fixtures/.

Layout

  • src/db/ - Drizzle schema (printers, farms, print_jobs, frame_embeddings) and client, pointed at pgCat. src/db/validators.ts derives Elysia/TypeBox request validators straight from the Drizzle tables via drizzle-typebox, so the Postgres schema and the API validators come from one definition instead of two hand-synced ones.
  • src/s3/ - R2 presigned URL helpers (PUT for client uploads, GET for the edge proxy).
  • src/queue/ - Valkey client (ioredis) + XADD helper pushing onto stream:camera_frames for continuum-ai-worker.

Valkey, not Redis: Redis 7.4+ is RSALv2/SSPL and 8.0+ adds AGPLv3, none of which a commercial product can ship. Valkey is BSD-3-Clause and speaks the same RESP protocol, so ioredis is unchanged - only the server differs. See continuum-common/docs/LICENSES.md. docker-compose.yml here brings up Valkey and Postgres+pgvector for local development.

  • src/routes/ - /auth, /farms, /printers, /jobs, and the edge-gateway WebSocket at /ws/edge/v1. That route's wire format is not defined here: it is schemas/continuum/v1/edge/ in continuum-schemas, validated through its TypeBox mirror in @continuum/ts-types, because both ends of it are separate programs in different languages and they had already drifted apart once. printers.gateway_printer_id is what maps a gateway's own printer ids ("p1p") onto rows here; telemetry for an unclaimed id is logged and skipped, never inserted.

frame_embeddings.embedding requires the vector extension. The first migration creates it, and scripts/dev-env.sh up also does so for the push path, which does not run migrations.

Dependency pins

elysia, @sinclair/typebox and the drizzle-* packages are pinned tightly on purpose, not out of caution. Caret ranges here resolved into a combination that could not boot: elysia: ^1.1.26 installed 1.4.30, which calls t.Module and so needs TypeBox >=0.34, while drizzle-typebox: ^0.2.1 installed a version whose peers demand drizzle-orm >=0.36 against the ^0.33.0 pinned here. Typechecking passed throughout - only starting the server failed. tests/dependency_identity.test.ts guards the part of this that can silently come back.
