Summary

  • Replace foxglove-web wrapper with plain FastAPI + lifespan; drop arq for Celery + Redis (with a separate beat process for cron jobs).
  • Swap raw-SQL/buildpg for SQLModel with the DBSession helper class lifted from tc-ai-backend (create, get_or_404, get_or_create, etc.).
  • Move from pip + requirements.txt (Python 3.9) to uv + pyproject.toml (Python 3.12). Drop setup.py, setup.cfg, runtime.txt.
  • Add Logfire instrumentation alongside the existing Sentry setup. Add ty for type checking and ruff for lint/format.
  • No migrations: SQLModel.metadata.create_all() runs on startup, sandwiched between bootstrap.sql (extensions, enums, plpgsql functions) and post_bootstrap.sql (triggers, materialised view, materialised-view index). Both files are idempotent.
  • Remove the OpenAI spam-check pipeline (src/spam/, src/llm_client.py, the spam branch in the email send view, related settings). 8 spam-only tests deleted.

What we did

  • New layout under app/ mirroring tc-ai-backend (core/, messages/api/, messages/tasks.py, ext/clients.py, common/auth.py, sentry/, observability/).
  • HttpMessageError + custom exception handler so error responses keep the legacy {'message': ...} shape (clients and tests rely on this).
  • Mandrill / Messagebird HTTP clients ported to a sync httpx.Client shared at module level.
  • All 7 worker functions ported to @celery_app.task (send_email, send_sms, store_click, update_mandrill_webhooks, update_message_status, update_aggregation_view, delete_old_emails). Email retries use task.retry(countdown=...) with the same backoff schedule (EMAIL_RETRYING).
  • Test rewrite: new tests/conftest.py with sync TestClient, transactional truncate, eager Celery, and a httpx.MockTransport replacement for the old aiohttp dummy_server. The mock transport tracks request log entries that the legacy dummy_server.app['log'] assertions expect. SyncDb shim translates $N placeholders to SQLAlchemy named params and stringifies JSONB values (legacy parity).

Verification

  • Schema parity confirmed: pg_dump --schema-only --no-owner --no-privileges of a fresh DB built by create_db_and_tables() diffs to zero meaningful changes vs the old src/models.sql (only the random \restrict tokens pg_dump injects per dump differ).
  • Route list matches the pre-migration snapshot exactly: same 16 endpoints, same paths, same methods, same handler names.
  • uv run pytest tests/113 passed, 1 skipped in 5s. The skipped test (test_message_details_links) needs wkhtmltopdf to run; pydf's bundled binary is x86_64-only and won't execute on macOS arm64. It runs on Heroku Linux.
  • uv run ruff check app/ && uv run ruff format --check app/ clean.

Out of scope

  • No schema changes (same tables, columns, indexes, triggers, materialised view).
  • No new endpoints, no removed endpoints.
  • SCSS/PDF rendering and SMS/messagebird kept as-is.
  • ty currently reports 58 diagnostics across app/ — all SQLModel/SQLAlchemy strict-typing complaints (no functional issues). Will clean up in a follow-up PR.

Deploy notes

  • Procfile adds a third process (beat) for Celery cron jobs. Without scaling beat: 1 in the Heroku dashboard, update_aggregation_view and delete_old_emails will silently stop running.
  • Same Postgres + Redis dependencies; cutover is safe because the schema is identical (the bootstrap SQL is idempotent against an existing prod DB).
  • Recommend deploying to staging first, smoke-testing the 5 core flows (send email, send SMS, deliver Mandrill webhook, list messages, render aggregation), then cutting prod during a low-traffic window. Rollback is heroku rollback — schema unchanged.

Test plan

  • Wait for CircleCI green
  • Deploy to staging, run create_db_and_tables() against a clone of prod data — verify it's a no-op (no ALTER/CREATE TABLE).
  • Smoke-test in staging: POST /send/email/ (Mandrill), POST /send/sms/ (Messagebird), POST /webhook/mandrill/ with a known signature, GET /messages/email-mandrill/, GET /messages/email-mandrill/aggregation/.
  • Confirm Logfire receives traces from web and worker; trigger a test exception and confirm it lands in Sentry.
  • Schedule the beat dyno before merging to prod.

Replace the foxglove-web framework, raw-SQL/buildpg DB layer, and arq
worker with the tc-ai-backend blueprint:

- FastAPI directly (no foxglove wrapper), Python 3.12, uv + pyproject.toml
- SQLModel for the ORM with a custom DBSession (create/get_or_404/
  get_or_create) copied from tc-ai-backend
- Celery + Redis for background work, beat process for the two cron jobs
- Logfire + Sentry for observability, ty + ruff for lint/type
- No migrations: SQLModel.metadata.create_all + bootstrap.sql for things
  SQLModel can't express (enums, triggers, materialised view)

Schema parity is preserved byte-for-byte against the old src/models.sql
(verified via pg_dump diff). The 16 HTTP routes match the pre-migration
snapshot exactly. The OpenAI spam-check pipeline is removed as part of
this refactor; its 8 tests are deleted.

Tests: 113 passing, 1 skipped (PDF generation needs x86 wkhtmltopdf,
will run on Heroku Linux).

- UserSession: convert from Pydantic BaseModel to a callable dependency
  so auth failures surface as 403 (not the 422 ValidationError that
  pydantic v2 wraps validator-raised HTTPExceptions in).
- send_email: write the send_request_failed row from a custom Task
  on_failure hook when celery raises MaxRetriesExceededError. Keep the
  in-body short-circuit for the direct-call test path.
- Materialised view: switch CREATE → CREATE IF NOT EXISTS so dyno
  restarts no longer wipe the cache. Tests refresh the MV in
  _truncate_all to keep cross-test state clean.
- delete_subaccount: bulk-delete via FK CASCADE instead of loading
  every Message + MessageGroup into memory.
- Switch update_aggregation_view + delete_old_emails to
  db.execute(text(...)) — Session.exec() is for typed select() queries.
- Standardise webhook dedup + click dedup on `SET key 1 NX EX <ttl>`
  everywhere (atomic, no incr+expire race window).

113 passing, 1 skipped (unchanged).

Code:
- Drop unused DBSession helpers (create/exists/get_or_404), unused HTTP
  client verbs (delete/put), unused getter functions (get_mandrill/
  get_messagebird), and prepare_search_query — all dead code.
- Replace email_send_view's manual get-or-create with the shared helper
  in sms.py, which now uses db.get_or_create() — exercises that helper.
- Refactor _SendEmailTask.on_failure to write the failure row directly
  rather than instantiating SendEmail (which needs a celery request).
- Add server_default ''::tsvector on Message.vector — defensive backup
  if the set_message_vector trigger ever drops.
- Add default_factory=utcnow on created_ts/send_ts/update_ts/ts so
  Pydantic-side construction doesn't require explicit timestamps.

Tests + tooling:
- Drop pytest-xdist; tests run sequentially in 5s, parallel deadlocks
  on shared TRUNCATE.
- Add tests/test_parity.py covering HMAC parity, enum round-trips,
  tsvector trigger output, and the harder-to-reach branches (retry
  exhaustion, 409 dedup, 404 billing, signature failures, HEAD
  webhook, get_or_create behaviour, sentry/logfire init paths).
- Coverage: 92.43% → 100.00% (omitting app/worker.py, the celery
  bootstrap entry point).
- ty: 58 diagnostics → 0. Auto-add ignore comments on SQLModel/
  SQLAlchemy strict-typing friction; matches tc-ai-backend's clean
  ty status.

140 passing, 1 skipped (PDF rendering, x86-only wkhtmltopdf binary).

Heroku's rediscloud add-on populates REDISCLOUD_URL, not REDIS_URL.
foxglove's settings used to handle this; restore the same fallback so
the worker/beat dynos pick up the correct broker URL on Heroku.

@Henty — heads up: master commit fae14a5 ("Avoid storing clicks temp") commented out the click-tracking enqueue and X-Forwarded-For IP capture in src/views/common.py. When merging master into this branch, I took the active version (kept click tracking on) since I wasn't sure whether the temp fix was meant to remain.

Could you confirm — should this PR keep click tracking enabled, or restore the temp-fix in app/messages/api/common.py:60-70?

Resolved: keeping click tracking on as currently committed — Tom confirmed re-enabling is intentional.

The old publish job built morpheus-mail from setup.py and uploaded to PyPI on
tag pushes. Restore it — moved the publishable package's setup.py into
packaging/morpheus-mail/ so it lives in its own directory and the root
pyproject.toml (which defines the main app) doesn't interfere with the build.

Cleaner than the relative package_dir approach which polluted the source
tree with copies of the render module. The publish job now copies app/render/
into packaging/morpheus-mail/morpheus/render/ before building. The staging
dir is gitignored.
