Closes #650. Part of #648.

Adds Storage::enqueue_debounced to the Diesel backends: while a job carrying the same debounce_key is still pending and unclaimed, the call slides its scheduled_at forward instead of inserting a second job, so a burst of enqueues collapses into one run.

deadline = min(now + window_ms, first_seen + max_wait_ms)

first_seen is the pending row's existing created_at — no new column. The read, the status guard, and the write are one transaction.

Layers

Layer Where
Params struct storage/records.rsDebounceOptions
Trait storage/traits.rs
Validation + scan bound storage/mod.rs
Shared body diesel_common/jobs.rsfind_debounce_target, enqueue_debounced
SQLite scan sqlite/jobs.rs
Postgres scan postgres/jobs.rs
Redis redis_backend/jobs/enqueue.rs — rejects until #651
Delegate storage/mod.rsimpl_storage! + StorageBackend

Only the candidate scan is per-backend, matching how scan_dequeue_candidates already splits: the locking clause is the one thing SQLite and Postgres cannot share.

Three decisions worth review

The status guard is not sufficient on its own. claim_execution inserts its row without touching status, and the result path only logs a failed complete_execution — so a Pending row can carry a live claim. Sliding it would pull a job a worker already holds back to a later deadline. The scan drops claimed rows through a second query rather than a join, because jobs and execution_claims are deliberately not declared joinable (the same reason reap_orphaned_jobs splits its lookup).

Postgres takes a transaction-scoped advisory lock, which the issue did not call for. SELECT … FOR UPDATE can only lock rows that already exist, so two first-of-a-burst enqueues for one key both find nothing and both insert — precisely the case debounce exists to collapse, and it would leave m0010_debounce's "the one-pending-job-per-key invariant belongs to the write transaction" false on Postgres while true on SQLite. pg_advisory_xact_lock over a hand-rolled FNV-1a of namespace \x1f debounce_key closes it. Transaction-scoped rather than session-scoped, so it releases on commit or rollback and is safe behind the connection pool — the standing objection to advisory locks in this codebase is about session-scoped ones. The hash is hand-rolled because DefaultHasher is explicitly not stable across Rust releases, and a rolling upgrade that derived two different ids from one key would silently split the lock in two; a pinned test vector guards against a future "just use DefaultHasher" refactor. SKIP LOCKED is deliberately absent, unlike the dequeue scan: skipping a contended row would insert a duplicate instead of coalescing onto it.

created_at is pinned to the same instant as scheduled_at. NewJob::into_job() reads the clock itself, so created_at — which doubles as first_seen for the ceiling — and the scheduling base could land a millisecond apart. That is enough to make a slide move a deadline backwards when max_wait_ms == window_ms.

Options are grouped into DebounceOptions rather than passed as four positionals: window_ms and max_wait_ms are adjacent same-typed durations, and transposing them silently inverts the semantics. Same reasoning WorkerRegistration already records.

Redis

Redis has no transaction to hang the read-modify-write on, so it needs the Lua script tracked in #651. Until then the call is rejected rather than falling back to a plain enqueue, which would turn a burst into one job per call. Its contract tests therefore live in a new run_diesel_storage_tests() wired into the SQLite and Postgres legs only; #651 folds them back into run_storage_tests and deletes the split.

Tests

Eight unit tests in sqlite/tests.rs and six in the contract suite: a burst collapses to one row, max_wait caps the slide and then stops deferring entirely, a claimed job is never slid, a running job opens a fresh window, distinct keys and distinct namespaces stay independent, replace_payload decides which payload survives, and unusable options are rejected without writing anything. Plus a pinned vector for the advisory-lock id.

cargo test --workspace is green (32 suites); clippy is clean on default, postgres, and redis with --all-targets; rustdoc is warning-free. The Postgres leg was not run locally — that is what the Postgres CI job is for.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added debounced job enqueueing for SQL-backed storage.
    • Matching pending jobs can be coalesced, with deadlines extended up to a configured maximum.
    • Optionally replace the existing job payload during debouncing.
    • Added isolation by namespace and key; claimed or running jobs remain unaffected.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Invalid debounce settings are rejected before any data is written.
  • Compatibility

    • Redis storage does not currently support debounced enqueueing and returns an unsupported-operation error.

Postgres also takes a transaction-scoped advisory lock: FOR UPDATE
cannot lock a row that does not exist yet, so without it two
first-of-a-burst enqueues for one key would both insert.

734-772: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Add coverage for the fields a coalescing call discards.

The trait contract states that a coalescing call changes only the deadline, plus the payload when replace_payload is set, and that priority, metadata, notes, depends_on, and expires_at from the new call are discarded. No test asserts this today. A future change that widens the coalescing UPDATE would pass the whole suite.

This test already builds a second NewJob with a different payload, so it is the natural place to also vary one non-payload field and assert the pending row keeps the original.

💚 Proposed additional test
/// A coalescing call is a vote to run again soon, not a redefinition of the
/// run: everything except the deadline (and the payload under
/// `replace_payload`) belongs to the job that opened the window.
#[test]
fn coalescing_discards_the_new_call_s_other_fields() {
    let storage = test_storage();

    let mut opening = debounced_job("report:user-7");
    opening.priority = 1;
    opening.metadata = Some(r#"{"round":1}"#.to_string());
    let first = storage
        .enqueue_debounced(opening, debounce_opts(5_000, 60_000))
        .unwrap();

    let mut louder = debounced_job("report:user-7");
    louder.priority = 9;
    louder.metadata = Some(r#"{"round":2}"#.to_string());
    let coalesced = storage
        .enqueue_debounced(louder, debounce_opts(5_000, 60_000))
        .unwrap();

    assert_eq!(coalesced.id, first.id);
    assert_eq!(coalesced.priority, 1, "priority belongs to the window opener");
    assert_eq!(coalesced.metadata, first.metadata);
}

474-514: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Consider extracting the shared job-insert block.

This NewJobRow construction plus the dependency-row loop is now the fifth copy in this macro: enqueue, enqueue_batch, enqueue_unique, enqueue_unique_batch, and enqueue_debounced. Every new jobs column must be added in five places. The debounce_key column added by this PR already demonstrates the cost.

Extract a private helper, for example insert_job_with_deps(conn, &job, &depends_on), that builds the row from a &Job, runs the pub/sub attribution, inserts the job, and inserts the dependency rows. Each caller then keeps only its own pre-insert logic.

This is deferrable and does not block the PR.

Document the database-wide scope of pg_advisory_xact_lock. The lock key excludes PostgresStorage::schema, so instances using different schemas in one PostgreSQL database serialize identical (namespace, debounce_key) pairs. This adds contention only and does not affect correctness.

On the three nitpicks from the review body:

Coverage for the fields a coalescing call discards — accepted, added in f83856a. Worth having: the contract is asserted in the trait doc but nothing enforced it, so widening the coalescing UPDATE would have broken it silently. Written as its own test rather than folded into the payload one, and it also covers expires_at.

Database-wide scope of pg_advisory_xact_lock — accurate, and documented in a35c380. Left the behaviour as-is: threading PostgresStorage::schema into the lock id would mean changing a scan signature the SQLite twin has no use for, to remove contention between instances that already cannot see each other's rows.

Extracting the shared job-insert block — real, but declining it here. It would touch enqueue, enqueue_batch, enqueue_unique and enqueue_unique_batch, turning a reviewable feature diff into a refactor of four existing write paths. The five-copy cost is genuine and worth its own change; happy to file a follow-up if wanted.
