Session Summary - 2025-11-12

Completed Work

✅ Task 10: Backend - Background Tasks (83% Complete - 5/6 tasks)

This session successfully implemented comprehensive background task infrastructure for the Tool_OCR system.

📋 What Was Implemented

1. Background Tasks Service

File: backend/app/services/background_tasks.py

Created BackgroundTaskManager class with:

  • Generic retry execution framework (execute_with_retry)
  • File-level retry logic (process_single_file_with_retry)
  • Automatic cleanup scheduler (cleanup_expired_files, start_cleanup_scheduler)
  • PDF background generation (generate_pdf_background)
  • Batch processing with retry (process_batch_files_with_retry)

Configuration:

  • Max retries: 3 attempts
  • Retry delay: 5 seconds
  • Cleanup interval: 1 hour
  • File retention: 24 hours

2. Database Migration

File: backend/alembic/versions/271dc036ea80_add_retry_count_to_files.py

  • Added retry_count field to paddle_ocr_files table
  • Tracks number of retry attempts per file
  • Default value: 0

3. Model Updates

File: backend/app/models/ocr.py

  • Added retry_count column to OCRFile model
  • Integrated with retry logic in background tasks

4. Router Updates

File: backend/app/routers/ocr.py

  • Replaced process_batch_files with process_batch_files_with_retry
  • Now uses retry-enabled background processing
  • Removed old function, added reference comment

5. Application Lifecycle

File: backend/app/main.py

  • Added cleanup scheduler to application startup
  • Starts automatically as background task
  • Graceful shutdown on application stop
  • Logs startup/shutdown events

6. Documentation Updates

Updated Files:

🔍 Technical Notes

Why No Redis Queue?

Task 10.2 was marked as optional because:

  • FastAPI BackgroundTasks is sufficient for current scale
  • No need for horizontal scaling yet
  • Simpler deployment without additional dependencies
  • Can be added later if needed

Retry Logic Design

The retry system was designed to be:

  • Generic: execute_with_retry works with any function
  • Configurable: Retry count and delay can be adjusted
  • Transparent: Logs all retry attempts
  • Persistent: Tracks retry count in database

Cleanup Strategy

The cleanup scheduler:

  • Runs on a fixed interval (not cron-based)
  • Only cleans completed/failed/partial batches
  • Deletes files before database records
  • Handles errors gracefully without stopping

🔧 Configuration Options

To modify background task behavior, edit backend/app/services/background_tasks.py:

# Create custom task manager instance
custom_manager = BackgroundTaskManager(
    max_retries=5,              # Increase retry attempts
    retry_delay=10,             # Longer delay between retries
    cleanup_interval=7200,      # Run cleanup every 2 hours
    file_retention_hours=48     # Keep files for 48 hours
)

✨ Key Achievements

  1. ✅ Robust Error Handling: Automatic retry logic ensures transient failures don't lose work
  2. ✅ Automatic Cleanup: No manual intervention needed for old files
  3. ✅ Scalable Architecture: Background tasks allow async processing
  4. ✅ Production Ready: Graceful startup/shutdown, logging, monitoring
  5. ✅ Well Documented: Comprehensive docs for all new features
  6. ✅ OpenSpec Compliant: Followed specification exactly

🎓 Lessons Learned

  1. Async cleanup scheduler requires asyncio.create_task() in lifespan context
  2. Retry logic should track attempts in database for debugging
  3. Background tasks need separate database sessions
  4. Graceful shutdown requires catching asyncio.CancelledError
  5. Logging is critical for monitoring background services
