Motivation

  • Ensure the distribution engine owns the default route and group ID instead of plumbing it through the demo server configuration.
  • Simplify demo server setup by removing the CLI/config-driven raftGroupID plumbing and relying on engine-initialized routing.
  • Address an inline review concern that the group ID should come from the distribution engine rather than being passed as an argument.

Description

  • Added defaultGroupID and a new constructor NewEngineWithDefaultRoute in distribution/engine.go that registers a default route covering the full keyspace.
  • Replaced usage of distribution.NewEngine() + UpdateRoute(..., cfg.raftGroupID) with distribution.NewEngineWithDefaultRoute() in cmd/server/demo.go.
  • Removed the --raftGroupId CLI flag and corresponding raftGroupID config field and sample values from the demo server.
  • Extended setupGRPC to accept the distServer and register the distribution gRPC service with pb.RegisterDistributionServer.

Testing

  • Ran gofmt -w on modified files and formatting succeeded.
  • No go test unit or integration tests were executed for this change.
  • Verified repository status shows the two modified files staged and committed successfully.
  • Verified the demo build was updated to register the distribution server (no runtime tests were run).

Summary of Changes

Hello @bootjp, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request refactors how the default group ID and routing are managed within the elastickv system. It shifts the responsibility of defining the default route from the demo server's configuration to the distribution engine itself, leading to a more self-contained and simplified setup for the demo environment. This change improves the internal consistency of the system by ensuring the distribution engine is the authoritative source for its routing information.

Highlights

  • Distribution Engine Ownership: The distribution engine now internally manages its default route and group ID, removing the need to configure it externally via the demo server. This ensures the engine is the authoritative source for its routing information.
  • Demo Server Simplification: The demo server setup is simplified by eliminating the --raftGroupId CLI flag and associated configuration, as the distribution engine now initializes its own routing.
  • New Constructor and GRPC Registration: A new constructor NewEngineWithDefaultRoute was added to distribution/engine.go to create an engine and register a default route. The setupGRPC function in cmd/server/demo.go was updated to accept and register the DistributionServer.

Code Review

This pull request is a nice improvement that simplifies the demo server configuration by making the distribution engine responsible for its own default route. This enhances encapsulation and removes unnecessary configuration plumbing. The implementation looks correct.

My main feedback is regarding the lack of tests for the new NewEngineWithDefaultRoute function. I've added a review comment with a suggested unit test to ensure the new functionality is covered and to prevent future regressions.

This new constructor is a great addition for simplifying setup. However, new public functions should be accompanied by unit tests to ensure they behave as expected and prevent future regressions. The PR description mentions no tests were run for this change.

Please add a unit test for NewEngineWithDefaultRoute to distribution/engine_test.go. Here is a suggested test case:

func TestNewEngineWithDefaultRoute(t *testing.T) {
	e := NewEngineWithDefaultRoute()
	stats := e.Stats()

	if len(stats) != 1 {
		t.Fatalf("expected 1 route, got %d", len(stats))
	}

	r := stats[0]
	if r.GroupID != defaultGroupID {
		t.Fatalf("expected group ID %d, got %d", defaultGroupID, r.GroupID)
	}
	if !bytes.Equal(r.Start, []byte("")) {
		t.Fatalf("expected start of keyspace (empty slice), got %q", r.Start)
	}
	if r.End != nil {
		t.Fatalf("expected end of keyspace (nil), got %q", r.End)
	}

	// Also test via GetRoute
	route, ok := e.GetRoute([]byte("any-key"))
	if !ok {
		t.Fatal("GetRoute should find the default route")
	}
	if route.GroupID != defaultGroupID {
		t.Fatalf("GetRoute: expected group ID %d, got %d", defaultGroupID, route.GroupID)
	}
}
