refactor: move cache refresh logic into a helper method #160
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughAdded a per-datatype cache update handler and refactored update_cache to delegate create/update/delete operations to it; preserved full-context build when no cache exists and added logging and cleanup/persistence steps. Minor formatting fix in profile route EOF/newline. Changes

- Around line 320-326: The debug print exposes sensitive PII by logging full
context_data from _build_context; remove or replace the detailed print("✅ Full
context built", context_data) with a non-sensitive confirmation (e.g., a success
message or sanitized summary) and ensure any logging before calling
self.memory_cache[user_id] or self._save_cache(user_id, context_data) never
includes raw context_data; if needed implement a redaction/summarize helper that
strips PHI/PII and call that helper for logs instead.
- Around line 59-76: The function _cache_update_handler has a code path where
_get_specific_data(datatype) returns falsy and the function falls through
without returning a bool; update _cache_update_handler to explicitly return
False when data is falsy (e.g., after calling self._get_specific_data(datatype)
check if not data and return False), preserving existing behavior for profile vs
tracking_data updates and keeping the method signature -> bool.

117-117: LGTM!The formatting change is acceptable. This is a minor whitespace adjustment with no functional impact.
104-107: Pre-existing bug: SQL parameter mismatch will cause runtime error.This is not introduced by the current PR, but the UPDATE statement specifies only 2 columns (
due_date,user_location) while providing 6 parameters. This will raise asqlite3.ProgrammingErrorat runtime.Consider fixing this in a follow-up or as part of this PR if updating profile functionality is being tested:
🔎 Suggested fix
db.execute( - 'UPDATE profile SET due_date = ?, user_location = ?', - (lmp, cycle_length, period_length, age, weight, location) + 'UPDATE profile SET lmp = ?, cycleLength = ?, periodLength = ?, age = ?, weight = ?, user_location = ?, dueDate = ?', + (lmp, cycle_length, period_length, age, weight, location, calculate_due_date(lmp, cycle_length)) )Backend/agent/cache.py (1)

that the context was built for user_id, the number of items, or a list of
top-level keys), or mask sensitive fields before any logging; keep memory_cache,
_save_cache, _build_context, user_id and context_data usage unchanged otherwise.

298-300: Expand docstring to explain design rationale.The note states that the
operationparameter is "purely informational," but doesn't explain why operation-specific incremental updates (as requested in issue #132) aren't implemented. Consider adding a brief explanation of the design decision to help future maintainers understand the trade-offs.🔎 Suggested enhancement

The cache update logic performs a full refresh + of the affected datatype regardless of operation. This design trades incremental update complexity + for simpler, more reliable cache consistency with bounded data sizes (max_tracking_entries).
329-339: Cache update logic successfully centralized.The refactored code effectively extracts the repeated cache update logic into
_cache_update_handler, improving maintainability. The flow correctly updates the timestamp, persists to memory and disk, and triggers cleanup.💡 Optional simplification
Since all three operations (
create,update,delete) execute identical logic, consider simplifying the condition:- if operation in ["update", "create", "delete"] : + if operation and data_type:This makes it clear that any operation with a valid data_type will trigger the cache update, and removes the need to maintain an explicit list of operation types.

59-77: Verify that the full refresh behavior aligns with issue #132 requirements.The
_cache_update_handlermethod fetches all data from the database for the given datatype, regardless of the operation (create/update/delete). Theoperationparameter is explicitly documented as "purely informational" and the cache update logic is identical for all operation types.However, issue #132 could not be located in the repository to verify whether its requirements have been met by this approach. Confirm whether issue #132 originally required incremental updates (appending/updating/deleting specific records) or if full refreshes are the intended solution.

Fix type annotation spacing to comply with PEP 8.

In @Backend/agent/cache.py:
- Around line 298-300: The docstring incorrectly states the operation parameter
is purely informational; update the cache update function that accepts the
operation parameter (e.g., update_cache / cache_update_handler) to implement
operation-specific behavior per issue #132: when operation == "create" append
new records to the existing cache, when operation == "update" merge/replace
matching records by key/ID in the cache, when operation == "delete" remove
matching records from the cache, and only fall back to a full refresh if the
incremental action cannot be performed; also remove or correct the misleading
note in the docstring that claimed all operations are treated the same.
- Around line 328-338: The code currently only runs updates when operation is in
["update","create","delete"] and otherwise silently skips; add an else branch
after that condition to log/warn (e.g., via print or logger) that an unexpected
or empty operation was received for user_id and data_type so skips are visible;
additionally refactor the logic so _cache_update_handler (or create three
specific helpers like _cache_create_handler, _cache_modify_handler,
_cache_delete_handler) implements operation-specific behavior instead of always
doing a full refresh via _get_specific_data — for "create" append new records
returned by _get_specific_data, for "update" find and modify matching records in
current_cache, and for "delete" remove matching records from current_cache, then
update last_updated, memory_cache[user_id], call _save_cache(user_id,
current_cache) and _check_and_cleanup_cache(user_id) only when changes were
actually applied.

319-327: Verify early return behavior when no cache exists.The added
returnstatement on line 326 causes the function to exit after building full context for users without existing cache, preventing the operation-based update logic (lines 328-338) from executing. While this may be intentional (full context build makes incremental updates unnecessary), it's a behavioral change that should be confirmed.Previously, the code would fall through to the operation handling below, but now it short-circuits. Ensure this aligns with the intended cache update flow.
59-77: Cache update handler logic is correct but doesn't implement incremental updates.The
_cache_update_handlermethod successfully centralizes cache update logic and properly returnsFalsewhen data fetch fails (addressing a past review comment). The implementation correctly differentiates between profile updates (root-level) and tracking data updates (nested).However, this refactor maintains the existing full-refresh behavior via
_get_specific_data, rather than implementing the incremental update logic (create = append, update = modify specific, delete = remove) requested in issue #132. If the full-refresh approach is intentional, consider updating or closing issue #132 to reflect this architectural decision.

Closes #132
📝 Description
This PR does a small refactor around the cache update flow.
Initially, I misunderstood the purpose of the
operationparameter and thought different logic was missing for create / update / delete. After studying the cache system more thoroughly, I realized the current behavior is intentional and there was no underlying issue.Based on that, this PR does not change how the cache works. It only centralizes the repeated cache refresh logic into a separate helper method and improves logging/doc clarity so it’s clearer that
operationis informational and does not affect behavior.🔧 Changes Made
