BackgroundTaskManagerclass - OCR processing runs asynchronously via FastAPI BackgroundTasks
- Router updated: backend/app/routers/ocr.py:240
10.3 Progress Updates
- Batch progress tracking already implemented in Task 8
- Properties:
batch.completed_files,batch.failed_files,batch.progress_percentage - Endpoint:
GET /api/v1/batch/{batch_id}/status
10.4 Error Handling with Retry Logic
- File: backend/app/services/background_tasks.py:63
- Implemented
execute_with_retry()method for generic retry logic - Implemented
process_single_file_with_retry()for OCR processing with 3 retry attempts - Added
retry_countfield toOCRFilemodel - Migration: backend/alembic/versions/271dc036ea80_add_retry_count_to_files.py
- Configurable retry delay (default: 5 seconds)
- Error messages include retry attempt information
10.5 Cleanup Scheduler for Expired Files
- File: backend/app/services/background_tasks.py:189
- Implemented
cleanup_expired_files()method - Automatic cleanup of files older than 24 hours
- Runs every 1 hour (configurable via
cleanup_interval) - Deletes:

📝 Known Issues & Workarounds
1. Shared Database Environment
- Issue: Database contains tables from other projects
- Solution: All tables use
paddle_ocr_prefix for namespace isolation - Important: NEVER drop tables in migrations (only create)
2. PaddleOCR 3.x Compatibility
- Issue: Parameters
show_loganduse_gpuremoved in PaddleOCR 3.x - Solution: Updated service to remove obsolete parameters
- Issue:
PPStructurerenamed toPPStructureV3 - Solution: Updated imports
3. Bcrypt Version
- Issue: Latest bcrypt incompatible with passlib
- Solution: Pinned to
bcrypt==4.2.1
4. WeasyPrint on macOS
- Issue: Missing shared libraries
- Solution: Install via Homebrew and set
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
5. First OCR Run
- Issue: First OCR test may fail as PaddleOCR downloads models (~900MB)
- Solution: Wait for download to complete, then retry
- Model Location:
~/.paddlex/

🌐 Phase 2: Frontend API Schema Alignment (2025-11-12)
Issue Summary
During frontend development, identified 6 critical API mismatches between frontend expectations and backend implementation that blocked upload, processing, and results preview functionality.
🐛 API Mismatches Fixed
1. Upload Response Structure ⬅️ FIXED
- Problem: Backend returned
OCRBatchResponsewithidfield, frontend expected{ batch_id, files } - Solution: Created
UploadBatchResponseschema in backend/app/schemas/ocr.py:91-115 - Impact: Upload now returns correct structure, fixes "no response after upload" issue
- Files Modified:
backend/app/schemas/ocr.py- Added UploadBatchResponse schemabackend/app/routers/ocr.py:38,72-75- Updated response_model and return format
2. Error Field Naming ⬅️ FIXED
- Problem: Frontend read
file.error, backend haderror_messagefield - Solution: Added Pydantic validation_alias in backend/app/schemas/ocr.py:21
- Code:
error: Optional[str] = Field(None, validation_alias='error_message') - Impact: Error messages now display correctly in ProcessingPage
3. Markdown Content Missing ⬅️ FIXED
- Problem: Frontend needed
markdown_contentfor preview, only path was provided - Solution: Added field to OCRResultResponse in backend/app/schemas/ocr.py:35
- Code:
markdown_content: Optional[str] = None # Added for frontend preview - Impact: Markdown preview now works in ResultsPage
4. Export Options Schema Missing ⬅️ FIXED
- Problem: Frontend sent
optionsobject, backend didn't accept it - Solution: Created ExportOptions schema in backend/app/schemas/export.py:10-15
- Fields:
confidence_threshold,include_metadata,filename_pattern,css_template - Impact: Advanced export options now supported
5. CSS Template Filename Field ⬅️ FIXED
- Problem: Frontend needed
filename, backend only hadnameanddescription - Solution: Added filename field to CSSTemplateResponse in backend/app/schemas/export.py:82
- Code:
filename: str = Field(..., description="Template filename") - Impact: CSS template selector now works correctly
6. OCR Result Detail Structure ⬅️ FIXED (Critical)
- Problem: ResultsPage showed "檢視 Markdown - undefined" because:
- Backend returned nested
{ file: {...}, result: {...} }structure - Frontend expected flat structure with
filename,confidence,markdown_contentat root
- Backend returned nested
- Solution: Created OCRResultDetailResponse schema in backend/app/schemas/ocr.py:77-89
- Solution: Updated endpoint in backend/app/routers/ocr.py:181-240 to:
- Read markdown content from filesystem
- Build flattened JSON data structure
- Return all fields frontend expects at root level
- Impact:
- MarkdownPreview now shows correct filename in title
- Confidence and processing time display correctly
- Markdown content loads and displays properly
✅ Frontend Functionality Restored
Upload Flow:
- ✅ Files upload with progress indication
- ✅ Toast notification on success
- ✅ Automatic redirect to Processing page
- ✅ Batch ID and files stored in Zustand state
Processing Flow:
- ✅ Batch status polling works
- ✅ Progress percentage updates in real-time
- ✅ File status badges display correctly (pending/processing/completed/failed)
- ✅ Error messages show when files fail
- ✅ Automatic redirect to Results when complete
Results Flow:
- ✅ Batch summary displays (batch ID, completed count)
- ✅ Results table shows all files with actions
- ✅ Click file to view markdown preview
- ✅ Markdown title shows correct filename (not "undefined")
- ✅ Confidence and processing time display correctly
- ✅ PDF download works
- ✅ Export button navigates to export page
📝 Additional Frontend Fixes
1. ResultsPage.tsx (frontend/src/pages/ResultsPage.tsx:134-143)
- Added null checks for undefined values:
(ocrResult.confidence || 0)- Prevents .toFixed() on undefined(ocrResult.processing_time || 0)- Prevents .toFixed() on undefinedocrResult.json_data?.total_text_regions || 0- Safe optional chaining
2. ProcessingPage.tsx (Already functional)
- Batch ID validation working
- Status polling implemented correctly
- Error handling complete
🔧 API Endpoints Updated
Upload Endpoint:
POST /api/v1/upload
Response: { batch_id: number, files: OCRFileResponse[] }
Batch Status Endpoint:
GET /api/v1/batch/{batch_id}/status
Response: { batch: OCRBatchResponse, files: OCRFileResponse[] }
OCR Result Endpoint (New flattened structure):
GET /api/v1/ocr/result/{file_id}
Response: {
file_id: number
filename: string
status: string
markdown_content: string
json_data: {...}
confidence: number
processing_time: number
}
