Migration Guide¶

This comprehensive guide covers all migration scenarios for Readur, including version upgrades, storage migrations, database migrations, and platform migrations.

Version Upgrades¶

Upgrading from v2.x to v3.x¶

Pre-Upgrade Checklist¶

Review breaking changes in release notes
Backup database and files
Test upgrade in staging environment
Schedule maintenance window
Notify users of planned downtime

Upgrade Steps¶

Stop the application

docker-compose down
# or
systemctl stop readur

Backup current state: Create comprehensive backups of both database and file data before proceeding.

# Database backup
pg_dump $DATABASE_URL > backup_v2_$(date +%Y%m%d).sql

# File backup
tar -czf files_backup_v2_$(date +%Y%m%d).tar.gz /var/readur/uploads

Update configuration: Add new environment variables and configuration options required for the new version.

# New environment variables in v3
echo "OIDC_ENABLED=false" >> .env
echo "FEATURE_MULTI_LANGUAGE_OCR=true" >> .env
echo "FEATURE_LABELS=true" >> .env

Run database migrations: Apply database schema changes required for the new version.

# Pull new version
docker pull readur:v3.0.0

# Run migrations
docker run --rm \
  -e DATABASE_URL=$DATABASE_URL \
  readur:v3.0.0 \
  cargo run --bin migrate

Update and start application: Deploy the new version and restart the application services.

# Update docker-compose.yml
sed -i 's/readur:v2/readur:v3.0.0/g' docker-compose.yml

# Start application
docker-compose up -d

Verify upgrade: Confirm that the upgrade completed successfully and all systems are functioning correctly.

# Check version
curl http://localhost:8080/api/version

# Check health
curl http://localhost:8080/health

# Verify migrations
psql $DATABASE_URL -c "SELECT * FROM _sqlx_migrations ORDER BY installed_on DESC LIMIT 5;"

Rollback Procedure¶

If issues occur during upgrade:

# Stop v3
docker-compose down

# Restore database
psql $DATABASE_URL < backup_v2_$(date +%Y%m%d).sql

# Restore configuration
git checkout v2.x.x docker-compose.yml
git checkout v2.x.x .env

# Start v2
docker-compose up -d

Storage Migration¶

Local to S3 Migration¶

Prerequisites¶

S3 bucket created and accessible
IAM credentials with appropriate permissions
Sufficient network bandwidth
Migration tool installed: cargo install --path . --bin migrate_to_s3

Step 1: Prepare S3 Environment¶

# Test S3 access
aws s3 ls s3://readur-documents/

# Create bucket structure
aws s3api put-object --bucket readur-documents --key documents/
aws s3api put-object --bucket readur-documents --key thumbnails/
aws s3api put-object --bucket readur-documents --key processed/

Step 2: Configure S3 Settings¶

# Update environment variables
S3_ENABLED: true
S3_BUCKET_NAME: readur-documents
S3_REGION: us-east-1
S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID: AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE
S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY
S3_PREFIX: production/
S3_STORAGE_CLASS: STANDARD_IA

Step 3: Run Migration¶

# Dry run first
./migrate_to_s3 --dry-run

# Expected output:
# Files to migrate: 5,432
# Total size: 45.6 GB
# Estimated time: 2.5 hours

# Run actual migration with progress tracking
./migrate_to_s3 \
  --enable-rollback \
  --batch-size 100 \
  --parallel-uploads 10 \
  --verbose \
  2>&1 | tee migration_$(date +%Y%m%d).log

Step 4: Verify Migration¶

# Check file count
aws s3 ls s3://readur-documents/documents/ --recursive | wc -l

# Verify random samples
./migrate_to_s3 --verify --sample-size 100

# Check database references
psql $DATABASE_URL <<EOF
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM documents WHERE file_path LIKE 's3://%';
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM documents WHERE file_path NOT LIKE 's3://%';
EOF

Step 5: Switch to S3 Storage¶

# Update configuration
docker-compose down
vim docker-compose.yml  # Set S3_ENABLED=true
docker-compose up -d

# Test file upload
curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/documents/upload \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  -F "[email protected]"

S3 to Local Migration¶

# Reverse migration if needed
./migrate_to_s3 \
  --direction s3-to-local \
  --enable-rollback \
  --verify

Cross-Region S3 Migration¶

#!/bin/bash
# migrate-s3-regions.sh

SOURCE_BUCKET="readur-us-east-1"
DEST_BUCKET="readur-eu-west-1"
SOURCE_REGION="us-east-1"
DEST_REGION="eu-west-1"

# Set up replication
aws s3api put-bucket-replication \
  --bucket $SOURCE_BUCKET \
  --replication-configuration file://replication.json

# Wait for replication
aws s3api get-bucket-replication-status \
  --bucket $SOURCE_BUCKET

# Update application configuration
sed -i "s/$SOURCE_BUCKET/$DEST_BUCKET/g" .env
sed -i "s/$SOURCE_REGION/$DEST_REGION/g" .env

# Restart application
docker-compose restart

Database Migrations¶

PostgreSQL Version Upgrade¶

Upgrading from PostgreSQL 14 to 15¶

# 1. Dump database
pg_dumpall -h old_host -U postgres > dump.sql

# 2. Stop old PostgreSQL
systemctl stop postgresql-14

# 3. Install PostgreSQL 15
apt-get install postgresql-15

# 4. Initialize new cluster
/usr/lib/postgresql/15/bin/initdb -D /var/lib/postgresql/15/data

# 5. Restore database
psql -h new_host -U postgres < dump.sql

# 6. Update connection string
export DATABASE_URL="postgresql://readur:password@localhost:5432/readur?sslmode=require"

# 7. Test connection
psql $DATABASE_URL -c "SELECT version();"

Database Server Migration¶

#!/bin/bash
# migrate-database.sh

OLD_DB="postgresql://user:pass@old-server/readur"
NEW_DB="postgresql://user:pass@new-server/readur"

# 1. Create new database
psql $NEW_DB -c "CREATE DATABASE readur;"

# 2. Dump schema and data
pg_dump $OLD_DB --no-owner --clean --if-exists > readur_dump.sql

# 3. Restore to new server
psql $NEW_DB < readur_dump.sql

# 4. Verify data
psql $NEW_DB <<EOF
SELECT COUNT(*) as documents FROM documents;
SELECT COUNT(*) as users FROM users;
SELECT MAX(created_at) as latest FROM documents;
EOF

# 5. Update application configuration
export DATABASE_URL=$NEW_DB

# 6. Test application
curl http://localhost:8080/health

Schema Migrations¶

Running Pending Migrations¶

# Check migration status
cargo run --bin migrate status

# Run pending migrations
cargo run --bin migrate up

# Rollback last migration
cargo run --bin migrate down

Creating Custom Migrations¶

-- migrations/20250116_custom_index.up.sql
CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY idx_documents_created_month 
ON documents(date_trunc('month', created_at));

-- migrations/20250116_custom_index.down.sql
DROP INDEX IF EXISTS idx_documents_created_month;

Platform Migration¶

Docker to Kubernetes¶

Step 1: Prepare Kubernetes Manifests¶

# deployment.yaml
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: readur
spec:
  replicas: 3
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: readur
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        app: readur
    spec:
      containers:
      - name: readur
        image: readur:latest
        envFrom:
        - configMapRef:
            name: readur-config

      volumes:
      - name: uploads
        persistentVolumeClaim:
          claimName: readur-uploads

Step 2: Migrate Configuration¶

# Create ConfigMap from .env
kubectl create configmap readur-config --from-env-file=.env

# Create Secrets
kubectl create secret generic readur-secrets \
  --from-literal=DATABASE_URL=$DATABASE_URL \
  --from-literal=JWT_SECRET=$JWT_SECRET \
  --from-literal=S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=$S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY

Step 3: Migrate Storage¶

# persistent-volume.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
metadata:
  name: readur-uploads
spec:
  accessModes:
    - ReadWriteMany
  resources:
    requests:
      storage: 100Gi
  storageClassName: nfs-storage

Step 4: Deploy to Kubernetes¶

# Apply manifests
kubectl apply -f deployment.yaml
kubectl apply -f service.yaml
kubectl apply -f ingress.yaml

# Verify deployment
kubectl get pods -l app=readur
kubectl logs -l app=readur --tail=50

USER_ID="admin"
BATCH_SIZE=1000

# Import with progress tracking
find $SOURCE_DIR -type f \( -name "*.pdf" -o -name "*.docx" \) | \
  xargs -P 4 -n $BATCH_SIZE \
  cargo run --bin batch_ingest -- \
    --user-id $USER_ID \
    --ocr-enabled \
    --skip-duplicates

User Migration¶

-- Migrate users from legacy system
INSERT INTO users (id, username, email, password_hash, role, created_at)
SELECT 
  gen_random_uuid(),
  legacy_username,
  legacy_email,
  crypt(legacy_password, gen_salt('bf')),
  CASE 
    WHEN legacy_role = 'admin' THEN 'admin'
    WHEN legacy_role = 'power_user' THEN 'editor'
    ELSE 'viewer'
  END,
  legacy_created_date
FROM legacy_users;

Metadata Migration¶

# migrate_metadata.py
import psycopg2
import json

def migrate_metadata():
    # Connect to databases
    legacy_conn = psycopg2.connect("dbname=legacy")
    readur_conn = psycopg2.connect("dbname=readur")

    # Fetch legacy metadata
    legacy_cur = legacy_conn.cursor()
    legacy_cur.execute("SELECT file_id, metadata FROM legacy_documents")

    # Transform and insert
    readur_cur = readur_conn.cursor()
    for file_id, old_metadata in legacy_cur:
        new_metadata = transform_metadata(old_metadata)
        readur_cur.execute(
            "UPDATE documents SET metadata = %s WHERE legacy_id = %s",
            (json.dumps(new_metadata), file_id)
        )

    readur_conn.commit()

def transform_metadata(old):
    """Transform legacy metadata format"""
    return {
        "title": old.get("document_title"),
        "author": old.get("created_by"),
        "tags": old.get("keywords", "").split(","),
        "legacy_id": old.get("id")
    }

Migration Validation¶

Validation Checklist¶

#!/bin/bash
# validate-migration.sh

echo "=== Migration Validation ==="

# 1. Document count
echo -n "Document count match: "
OLD_COUNT=$(psql $OLD_DB -t -c "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM documents")
NEW_COUNT=$(psql $NEW_DB -t -c "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM documents")
[ "$OLD_COUNT" -eq "$NEW_COUNT" ] && echo "✓" || echo "✗"

# 2. User count
echo -n "User count match: "
OLD_USERS=$(psql $OLD_DB -t -c "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM users")
NEW_USERS=$(psql $NEW_DB -t -c "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM users")
[ "$OLD_USERS" -eq "$NEW_USERS" ] && echo "✓" || echo "✗"

# 3. File integrity
echo -n "File integrity check: "
MISSING=$(comm -23 \
  <(find /old/uploads -type f -name "*.pdf" | sort) \
  <(find /new/uploads -type f -name "*.pdf" | sort) | wc -l)
[ "$MISSING" -eq 0 ] && echo "✓" || echo "✗ ($MISSING missing)"

# 4. Search functionality
echo -n "Search working: "
RESULTS=$(curl -s "http://localhost:8080/api/search?q=test" | jq '.results | length')
[ "$RESULTS" -gt 0 ] && echo "✓" || echo "✗"

# 5. OCR queue
echo -n "OCR queue healthy: "
PENDING=$(psql $NEW_DB -t -c "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ocr_queue WHERE status='pending'")
echo "$PENDING pending jobs"

Rollback Procedures¶

Emergency Rollback¶

#!/bin/bash
# emergency-rollback.sh

BACKUP_DATE=$1
if [ -z "$BACKUP_DATE" ]; then
    echo "Usage: $0 YYYYMMDD"
    exit 1
fi

echo "⚠️  WARNING: This will rollback to backup from $BACKUP_DATE"
read -p "Continue? (y/N) " -n 1 -r
echo

if [[ ! $REPLY =~ ^[Yy]$ ]]; then
    exit 1
fi

# Stop application
docker-compose down

# Restore database
psql $DATABASE_URL < backup_${BACKUP_DATE}.sql

# Restore files
tar -xzf files_backup_${BACKUP_DATE}.tar.gz -C /

# Restore configuration
cp .env.backup_${BACKUP_DATE} .env

# Start application
docker-compose up -d

echo "✓ Rollback completed"

Partial Rollback¶

-- Rollback specific migration
BEGIN;
DELETE FROM _sqlx_migrations WHERE version = '20250115100000';
-- Run down migration SQL here
COMMIT;

Post-Migration Tasks¶

Performance Optimization¶

-- Rebuild indexes
REINDEX DATABASE readur;

-- Update statistics
ANALYZE;

-- Vacuum database
VACUUM (FULL, ANALYZE);

Security Audit¶

# Check permissions
psql $DATABASE_URL -c "\dp"

# Verify encryption
aws s3api get-bucket-encryption --bucket readur-documents

# Test authentication
curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/auth/login \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"username":"admin","password":"test"}'

Monitoring Setup¶

# Set up alerts for migrated system
- alert: HighErrorRate
  expr: rate(errors_total[5m]) > 0.05
  annotations:
    summary: "High error rate after migration"

- alert: SlowQueries
  expr: pg_stat_database_blks_hit_ratio < 0.95
  annotations:
    summary: "Database cache hit ratio low after migration"

Migration Best Practices¶

Always test in staging before production migration
Take comprehensive backups before starting
Document the process for future reference
Monitor closely after migration
Have a rollback plan ready
Communicate with users about downtime
Validate data integrity at each step
Keep migration logs for troubleshooting
Update documentation after migration
Plan for peak traffic when coming back online
