Eddy Slidefactory Client Setup - Status Report

Date: 2025-11-20 Author: Claude Code Status: Blocked - Incomplete slidefactory-core package

Executive Summary

Attempted to set up the eddy-slidefactory client repository as a standalone Docker/Coolify deployment. The setup process revealed that the slidefactory-core package (reported as "complete" in Phase 1) is incomplete and missing critical application modules. The eddy-slidefactory Docker infrastructure is correctly configured, but the application cannot start due to missing Python packages in slidefactory-core.

Objectives

  1. ✅ Create eddy-slidefactory repository structure
  2. ✅ Configure Docker Compose for local development
  3. ✅ Set up Dockerfile to install slidefactory-core
  4. ❌ Successfully start web and worker services
  5. ❌ Verify application functionality

Current Status:

NAME                           STATUS
eddy-slidefactory-postgres-1   Up (healthy)
eddy-slidefactory-redis-1      Up (healthy)
eddy-slidefactory-minio-1      Up (healthy)
eddy-slidefactory-web-1        Exited (1) - ModuleNotFoundError
eddy-slidefactory-worker-1     Exited (2) - ModuleNotFoundError

4. Slidefactory-Core Wheel Build Process

Initial Attempt:

# Built wheel from slidefactory-core
cd /home/cgast/Github/slidefactory/slidefactory-core
python -m build --wheel

Result: 14KB wheel (too small - only contained alembic and CLI)

Root Cause: Missing __init__.py files in package directories, preventing setuptools from discovering subpackages.

Fixes Applied to slidefactory-core:

  1. Updated pyproject.toml (pyproject.toml:104-110):

    [tool.setuptools]
    package-dir = {"" = "src"}
    
    [tool.setuptools.packages.find]
    where = ["src"]
    include = ["slidefactory*"]
    namespaces = false
    

  2. Created Missing __init__.py Files:

    # Created in slidefactory-core/src/slidefactory/app/
    app/__init__.py           # Main app package
    util/__init__.py          # Utility modules
    auth/__init__.py          # Authentication
    auth/users/__init__.py    # User management
    ai/__init__.py            # AI providers
    chat/__init__.py          # Chat functionality
    tags/__init__.py          # Tag system
    office365/__init__.py     # Office365 integration
    taskmanager/__init__.py   # Task management
    

  3. Copied Missing Modules:

    # app/util was completely missing from slidefactory-core
    cp -r s5-slidefactory/app/util slidefactory-core/src/slidefactory/app/
    

Final Wheel: 151KB (includes app code)

Issues Encountered

Issue 1: GitHub Repository Access

Problem: Initial Dockerfile tried to install via git+https://github.com/... Error: fatal: could not read Username for 'https://github.com' Solution: - Built local wheel file - Updated requirements.txt to use local wheel - Added git to Dockerfile dependencies

Issue 2: Incomplete Package Discovery

Problem: setuptools not discovering app subpackages Error: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'slidefactory.app' Solution: - Changed from packages = ["slidefactory"] to packages.find - Enabled automatic package discovery

Issue 3: Missing __init__.py Files

Problem: Python doesn't recognize directories without __init__.py as packages Errors (sequential): 1. ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'slidefactory.app' 2. ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'slidefactory.app.util' 3. ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'slidefactory.app.auth'

Solution: - Created __init__.py in app/ - Created __init__.py in app/util/ - Created __init__.py in app/auth/, app/ai/, app/chat/, etc.

Issue 4: Missing Utility Modules

Problem: app/util directory completely absent from slidefactory-core Error: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'slidefactory.app.util' Solution: - Copied entire app/util directory from s5-slidefactory - Created app/util/init.py

Current Blocker: Incomplete slidefactory-core Package

Problem Statement

The slidefactory-core package was reported as "complete" in the Phase 1 migration report, but testing reveals it's missing critical modules. The application fails to start with import errors.

Latest Error

File "/usr/local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/slidefactory/app/main.py", line 38
    from slidefactory.app.auth.auth import verifier, cookie, SessionData
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'slidefactory.app.auth'

Despite creating app/auth/__init__.py, the module still fails to import, indicating deeper structural issues.

Missing/Incomplete Modules

Based on errors encountered:

  1. app/__init__.py - Was missing (now created)
  2. app/util/* - Entire directory was missing (now copied)
  3. app/auth/__init__.py - Was missing (now created)
  4. app/ai/__init__.py - Was missing (now created)
  5. app/chat/__init__.py - Was missing (now created)
  6. app/tags/__init__.py - Was missing (now created)
  7. app/office365/__init__.py - Was missing (now created)
  8. app/taskmanager/__init__.py - Was missing (now created)
  9. ⚠️ Additional modules likely missing

Comparison: s5-slidefactory vs slidefactory-core

s5-slidefactory structure:

Recommendations

Immediate Actions Required

  1. Complete slidefactory-core Migration
  2. Audit all directories in s5-slidefactory/app
  3. Ensure all subdirectories have __init__.py files
  4. Verify all Python files are present in slidefactory-core
  5. Test import of all modules independently

  6. Add Package Validation Tests

    # tests/test_package_structure.py
    def test_all_modules_importable():
        """Verify all app modules can be imported"""
        from slidefactory.app import (
            ai, api, auth, chat, context,
            filemanager, n8nmanager, office365,
            resources, results, scraping, tags,
            taskmanager, util, workflowengine
        )
    

  7. Create Build Verification Script

    #!/bin/bash
    # scripts/verify-package.sh
    
    # Build wheel
    python -m build --wheel
    
    # Install in clean venv
    python -m venv test_env
    source test_env/bin/activate
    pip install dist/*.whl
    
    # Test imports
    python -c "from slidefactory.app import main"
    python -c "from slidefactory.app.util import logger"
    python -c "from slidefactory.app.auth import auth"
    
    deactivate
    rm -rf test_env
    

  8. Update Phase 1 Report

  9. Mark Phase 1 as "Incomplete"
  10. Document missing modules
  11. Add completion criteria

Medium-Term Actions

  1. Standardize Package Structure
  2. Ensure every directory has __init__.py
  3. Add docstrings to all __init__.py files
  4. Document module responsibilities

  5. Automated CI Checks

    # .github/workflows/package-integrity.yml
    name: Package Integrity
    on: [push, pull_request]
    jobs:
      verify:
        runs-on: ubuntu-latest
        steps:
          - uses: actions/checkout@v3
          - name: Build package
            run: python -m build
          - name: Test imports
            run: |
              pip install dist/*.whl
              python -c "from slidefactory import app"
    

  6. Documentation Updates

  7. Document package structure requirements
