# PostgreSQL Database Schema Mismatch Report

**Generated:** 2025-05-01  
**Status:** ⚠️ CRITICAL MISMATCH FOUND  
**Severity:** HIGH - Code cannot query database tables correctly

---

## Executive Summary

There is a **critical mismatch** between:
1. **SQL Schema File** (`create_database_schema.sql`) - Uses **PascalCase** table and column names with double quotes
2. **C# Code Configuration** (`PostgresDatabaseProvider.cs`) - Expects **snake_case** table names with SnakeCaseNamingConvention for columns

This will cause **runtime failures** when EF Core tries to query tables that don't exist at the expected snake_case names.

## Detailed Mismatch Analysis

### ACTIVITYLOG Schema

#### SQL Definition:
```sql
CREATE TABLE activitylog."ActivityLogs" (
	"Id" integer NOT NULL,
	"Name" character varying(512) NOT NULL,
	"Overview" character varying(512),
	"ShortOverview" character varying(512),
	"Type" character varying(256) NOT NULL,
	"UserId" uuid NOT NULL,
	"ItemId" character varying(256),
	"DateCreated" timestamp with time zone NOT NULL,
	"LogSeverity" integer NOT NULL,
	"RowVersion" bigint NOT NULL
);
```

#### C# Code Mapping:
```csharp
modelBuilder.Entity<ActivityLog>().ToTable("activity_logs", Schemas.ActivityLog);
```

#### Mismatch Details:
| Aspect | SQL Schema | C# Code | Status |
|--------|-----------|---------|--------|
| Table Name | `"ActivityLogs"` | `activity_logs` | ❌ MISMATCH |
| Column: Id | `"Id"` | `id` (via convention) | ❌ MISMATCH |
| Column: Name | `"Name"` | `name` (via convention) | ❌ MISMATCH |
| Column: Overview | `"Overview"` | `overview` (via convention) | ❌ MISMATCH |
| Column: ShortOverview | `"ShortOverview"` | `short_overview` (via convention) | ❌ MISMATCH |
| Column: Type | `"Type"` | `type` (via convention) | ❌ MISMATCH |
| Column: UserId | `"UserId"` | `user_id` (via convention) | ❌ MISMATCH |
| Column: ItemId | `"ItemId"` | `item_id` (via convention) | ❌ MISMATCH |
| Column: DateCreated | `"DateCreated"` | `date_created` (via convention) | ❌ MISMATCH |
| Column: LogSeverity | `"LogSeverity"` | `log_severity` (via convention) | ❌ MISMATCH |
| Column: RowVersion | `"RowVersion"` | `row_version` (via convention) | ❌ MISMATCH |

**Root Cause:** Table name is PascalCase; columns are PascalCase but SnakeCaseNamingConvention converts them to snake_case.

	"DateLastActivity" timestamp with time zone NOT NULL
);
```

## Impact Analysis

### When EF Core Runs

1. **Query Execution:** EF Core generates queries using snake_case table names
   ```sql
   SELECT * FROM library.base_items  -- EF Core generates this
   ```

2. **Database Response:** PostgreSQL looks for table named `base_items` in lowercase

3. **Result:** Table not found because actual table is `"BaseItems"` (quoted PascalCase)
   ```
   ERROR: relation "base_items" does not exist
   ```

### Error Pattern You Will See

```
Npgsql.PostgresException (0x80004005): 42P01: relation "activity_logs" does not exist
Npgsql.PostgresException (0x80004005): 42P01: relation "api_keys" does not exist
Npgsql.PostgresException (0x80004005): 42P01: relation "base_items" does not exist
```

## Root Cause Analysis

### The Problem

The SQL schema file was generated from a `pg_dump` of an existing database that uses **PascalCase with double quotes** for case preservation. However, the C# code was configured to map to **lowercase snake_case** table names.

### Configuration Details

**PostgresDatabaseProvider.cs Line 763-819:**
```csharp
public void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder modelBuilder)
{
	// ... example mappings ...
	modelBuilder.Entity<ActivityLog>().ToTable("activity_logs", Schemas.ActivityLog);
	modelBuilder.Entity<ApiKey>().ToTable("api_keys", Schemas.Authentication);
	modelBuilder.Entity<Device>().ToTable("devices", Schemas.Authentication);
	// ... etc ...
}
```

**PostgresDatabaseProvider.cs Line 872-875:**
```csharp
public void ConfigureConventions(ModelConfigurationBuilder configurationBuilder)
{
	configurationBuilder.Conventions.Add(_ => new SnakeCaseNamingConvention());
}
```

**SnakeCaseNamingConvention.cs:**
- Converts all PascalCase property names to snake_case column names
- Example: `DateCreated` property → `date_created` column

---

## Recommended Resolution

### Option 1: Update SQL Schema to Use Lowercase (RECOMMENDED)
- **Pros:** Matches PostgreSQL best practices, cleaner, matches C# configuration
- **Cons:** Requires recreating all tables
- **Effort:** High (full database migration required)

### Option 2: Update C# Code to Match PascalCase SQL
- **Pros:** Quick fix, no database changes needed
- **Cons:** Goes against PostgreSQL conventions, harder to maintain
- **Effort:** Low (code changes only)

### Option 3: Custom Naming Convention
- Create a hybrid convention that recognizes existing PascalCase tables
- **Pros:** Can work with existing database
- **Cons:** Complex, non-standard, harder to maintain
- **Effort:** Very High (custom infrastructure needed)

## Files Affected

### C# Code Files
1. `src/Jellyfin.Database/Jellyfin.Database.Providers.Postgres/PostgresDatabaseProvider.cs`
   - Lines 763-823 (OnModelCreating table mappings)

2. `src/Jellyfin.Database/Jellyfin.Database.Providers.Postgres/SnakeCaseNamingConvention.cs`
   - Controls column name conversion

3. All Entity Configuration files in:
   - `src/Jellyfin.Database/Jellyfin.Database.Implementations/ModelConfiguration/`

### Database Schema Files
1. `scripts/sql/schema_init/create_database_schema.sql`
   - Lines 92-886 (all table definitions)

---

## Next Steps

1. **Decision Required:** Which resolution option do you prefer?
   - Option 1: Update SQL to lowercase (Recommended)
   - Option 2: Update C# to PascalCase
   - Option 3: Create custom convention

2. **If Option 1:** Generate a comprehensive SQL migration script
3. **If Option 2:** Generate C# code changes
4. **If Option 3:** Design custom naming convention

## Appendix: Column Name Conversion Examples

The SnakeCaseNamingConvention converts column names as follows:

| Original (C#) | Converted (SQL) | Status |
|---------------|-----------------|--------|
| Id | id | ✓ |
| UserId | user_id | ✓ |
| DateCreated | date_created | ✓ |
| LogSeverity | log_severity | ✓ |
| AccessToken | access_token | ✓ |
| APIKey | api_key | ✓ |
| DVVersionMajor | dv_version_major | ✓ |

**Note:** All column names in SQL schema are PascalCase (e.g., `"UserId"`, `"DateCreated"`), but C# code expects them in snake_case (e.g., `user_id`, `date_created`).
