Description

Extracts 9 index management endpoints (~476 lines) from monolithic http_server.cpp into dedicated IndexApiHandler class, following the established handler pattern.

Related Issues

Implements the IndexApiHandler extraction task.

Changes Made

Implementation (src/server/index_api_handler.cpp - 530 lines)

  • Secondary index operations: handleCreate(), handleDrop(), handleStats(), handleRebuild(), handleReindex()
    • Supports regular, range, fulltext, and composite indexes
    • Query string and JSON body parameter parsing
  • Adaptive indexing: handleSuggestions(), handlePatterns(), handleRecordPattern(), handleClearPatterns()
    • Pattern tracking and suggestion generation
    • OpenTelemetry tracing integration
  • Helpers: makeResponse(), makeErrorResponse() matching http_server.cpp patterns

Integration

  • CMakeLists.txt: Added index_api_handler.cpp to build
  • http_server.h: Added std::unique_ptr<IndexApiHandler> index_api_ member
  • http_server.cpp:
    • Handler initialization with storage_, secondary_index_, adaptive_index_, auth_ dependencies
    • Route delegation for 9 index endpoints

Example Usage

// Before: Direct method call in http_server.cpp
case Route::IndexCreatePost:
    response = handleCreateIndex(req);  // ~107 lines inline

// After: Delegated to handler
case Route::IndexCreatePost:
    response = index_api_->handleCreate(req);  // Extracted to dedicated class

Testing

Test Environment

  • OS: CI environments (Ubuntu, Windows, macOS)
  • Compiler: GCC 13, Clang, MSVC
  • Build Type: Release, Debug

Test Results

  • All existing tests pass
  • New tests added for changes
  • Manual testing performed

Test Commands

# Existing test suite validates functionality
ctest -R test_http_index_endpoints

  • No direct commits to main or develop

Performance Impact

  • No significant performance impact
  • Performance improvement (describe below)
  • Performance regression (justify below)

Performance Notes:
Zero-overhead refactoring - direct delegation to handler methods, no additional abstraction layers.

Breaking Changes

None. Maintains identical endpoint behavior and response formats.

N/A

Security Considerations

  • No security implications
  • Security review required
  • Dependencies updated to secure versions

Additional Notes

  • Preserves original query parsing, error handling, and response formatting
  • Code review identified pre-existing issues (URL decoding, exception handling) - intentionally not addressed to maintain minimal scope
  • Handler pattern enables future improvements: URL decoding, shared query parser, enhanced validation

<issue_description># Refactoring Task: IndexApiHandler Implementation

Overview

Extract and implement index management operations from http_server.cpp into the IndexApiHandler class.

Handler Details

Class: IndexApiHandler
Files: include/server/index_api_handler.h, src/server/index_api_handler.cpp
Lines to Extract: ~400 lines
Complexity: Medium

Endpoints to Implement

  1. POST /indexes/create - handleCreate()
  2. POST /indexes/drop - handleDrop()
  3. POST /indexes/rebuild - handleRebuild()
  4. GET /indexes/stats - handleStats()
  5. POST /indexes/suggestions - handleSuggestions()
  6. GET /indexes/patterns - handlePatterns()

Key Dependencies

  • std::shared_ptr<RocksDBWrapper> storage_
  • std::shared_ptr<SecondaryIndex> secondary_index_
  • std::shared_ptr<AdaptiveIndex> adaptive_index_
  • std::shared_ptr<AuthMiddleware> auth_

Features

  • Secondary index management
  • Adaptive indexing
  • Index statistics
  • Query pattern analysis
  • Index suggestions

Documentation

  • See docs/HANDLER_IMPLEMENTATION_GUIDE.md
  • See docs/INTEGRATION_GUIDE.md
  • Reference: src/server/admin_api_handler.cpp

Acceptance Criteria

  • All 6 handler methods implemented
  • Secondary index operations working
  • Adaptive indexing working
  • Tests pass
  • Integrated into HttpServer

Effort: Medium | Priority: P2 | Complexity: Medium</issue_description>
