  • snapshot Arrow files across existing processing directories at startup
  • group files by event minute and output partition prefix
  • process conversion groups sequentially from oldest to newest
  • start periodic sync after snapshotting instead of waiting for recovery
  • leave recovered root Arrow files for periodic sync
  • prevent periodic sync from reusing startup-owned processing directories
  • remove all empty processing directories contributing to a completed group
  • retain the per-Parquet Arrow file limit to bound memory usage

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved startup synchronization so initial files are captured before periodic synchronization begins.
    • Prevented startup and periodic processing from overlapping or competing for the same files.
    • Ensured staged files are processed in consistent event-time order.
    • Continued processing successful file groups when another group fails.
    • Improved recovery of incomplete staged files by deferring body validation until conversion.
    • Improved cleanup of empty processing directories and added warnings when startup synchronization does not complete as expected.
  • Tests

    • Added regression coverage for conversion errors, startup isolation, processing order, reserved directories, and multi-directory cleanup.

…riodic sync

- snapshot Arrow files across existing processing directories at startup
- group files by event minute and output partition prefix
- process conversion groups sequentially from oldest to newest
- start periodic sync after snapshotting instead of waiting for recovery
- leave recovered root Arrow files for periodic sync
- prevent periodic sync from reusing startup-owned processing directories
- remove all empty processing directories contributing to a completed group
- retain the per-Parquet Arrow file limit to bound memory usage

Walkthrough

Startup synchronization captures processing-file snapshots before periodic synchronization starts. Staging groups use deterministic ordering, sequential startup conversion, parallel periodic conversion, continued processing after errors, and cleanup across contributing directories.

Changes

Synchronization ordering

Layer / File(s) Summary
Startup snapshot preparation
src/parseable/streams.rs
Startup preparation recovers orphan parts, flushes writers, snapshots processing directories, and creates executable startup plans.
Ordered staging conversion
src/parseable/streams.rs
Staging groups use deterministic ordering and execution modes. Successful groups continue after errors, preserve successful schemas, clean successful sources, and retain failed sources for retry. Tests cover ordering, cleanup, and body-corrupt orphan parts.
Synchronization coordination
src/sync.rs
Synchronization exposes sync_start_and_signal, signals after startup plans are prepared, and executes plans sequentially in blocking tasks.
Modal synchronization startup
src/handlers/http/modal/ingest_server.rs, src/handlers/http/modal/server.rs
Modal server entry points wait for the startup snapshot signal before starting periodic synchronization and warn when startup exits without signaling.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to b5fe5

Custom partition names can alter startup recovery ordering, so staged data may not be processed in the intended oldest-first sequence. This should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge.

166-166: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Protect event-minute parsing from custom partition names.

validate_custom_partition does not reject minute. filename_by_partition writes custom components after the fixed minute= component, and staging_event_minute overwrites minute while scanning the filename. A numeric custom value changes the ordering key; a nonnumeric value makes the group use fallback ordering. Reject reserved names such as minute, or parse only the fixed components. Add a regression test.
