# ThrillWiki Monorepo Architecture Validation
|
||||
|
||||
This document provides a comprehensive review and validation of the proposed monorepo architecture for migrating ThrillWiki from Django-only to Django + Vue.js.
|
||||
|
||||
## Architecture Overview Validation
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ Core Requirements Met
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Clean Separation of Concerns**
|
||||
- Backend: Django API, business logic, database management
|
||||
- Frontend: Vue.js SPA with modern tooling
|
||||
- Shared: Common resources and media files
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Development Workflow Preservation**
|
||||
- UV package management for Python maintained
|
||||
- pnpm for Node.js package management
|
||||
- Existing development scripts adapted
|
||||
- Hot reloading for both backend and frontend
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Project Structure Compatibility**
|
||||
- Django apps preserved under `backend/apps/`
|
||||
- Configuration maintained under `backend/config/`
|
||||
- Static files strategy clearly defined
|
||||
- Media files centralized in `shared/media/`
|
||||
|
||||
## Technical Architecture Validation
|
||||
|
||||

- ✅ Media files accessible to both systems
|
||||
- ✅ Authentication handling via API tokens
|
||||
- ✅ CORS configuration for cross-origin requests
|
||||
|
||||
## File Migration Validation
|
||||
|
||||
### Critical File Mappings ✅
|
||||
|
||||
| Component | Current | New Location | Status |
|
||||
|-----------|---------|--------------|--------|
|
||||
| Django Apps | `/apps/` | `/backend/apps/` | ✅ Mapped |
|
||||
| Configuration | `/config/` | `/backend/config/` | ✅ Mapped |
|
||||
| Static Files | `/static/` | `/backend/static/` | ✅ Mapped |
|
||||
| Media Files | `/media/` | `/shared/media/` | ✅ Mapped |
|
||||
| Scripts | `/scripts/` | `/scripts/` | ✅ Preserved |
|
||||
| Dependencies | `/pyproject.toml` | `/backend/pyproject.toml` | ✅ Mapped |
|
||||
|
||||
### Import Path Updates Required ✅
|
||||
|
||||
**Django Settings Updates:**
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# OLD
|
||||
INSTALLED_APPS = [
|
||||
'accounts',
|
||||
'parks',
|
||||
'rides',
|
||||
# ...
|
||||
]
|
||||
|
||||
# NEW
|
||||
INSTALLED_APPS = [
|
||||
'apps.accounts',
|
||||
'apps.parks',
|
||||
'apps.rides',
|
||||
# ...
|
||||
]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Media Path Updates:**
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# NEW
|
||||
MEDIA_ROOT = BASE_DIR.parent / 'shared' / 'media'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Development Workflow Validation
|
||||
|
||||
### Package Management ✅
|
||||
|
||||
**Backend (UV):**
|
||||
- ✅ `uv add <package>` for new dependencies
|
||||
- ✅ `uv run manage.py <command>` for Django commands
|
||||
- ✅ `uv sync` for dependency installation
|
||||
|
||||
**Frontend (pnpm):**
|
||||
- ✅ `pnpm add <package>` for new dependencies
|
||||
- ✅ `pnpm install` for dependency installation
|
||||
- ✅ `pnpm run dev` for development server
|
||||
|
||||
**Root Workspace:**
|
||||
- ✅ `pnpm run dev` starts both servers concurrently
|
||||
- ✅ Individual server commands available
|
||||
- ✅ Build and test scripts coordinated
|
||||
|
||||
### Development Scripts ✅
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Root level coordination
|
||||
pnpm run dev # Both servers
|
||||
pnpm run backend:dev # Django only
|
||||
pnpm run frontend:dev # Vue.js only
|
||||
pnpm run build # Production build
|
||||
pnpm run test # All tests
|
||||
pnpm run lint # All linting
|
||||
pnpm run format # Code formatting
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Deployment Strategy Validation
|
||||
|
||||
### Container Strategy ✅
|
||||
|
||||
**Multi-container Approach:**
|
||||
- ✅ Separate containers for backend and frontend
|
||||
- ✅ Shared volumes for media files
|
||||
- ✅ Database and Redis containers
|
||||
- ✅ Nginx reverse proxy configuration
|
||||
|
||||
**Build Process:**
|
||||
- ✅ Backend: Django static collection + uv dependencies
|
||||
- ✅ Frontend: Vite production build + asset optimization
|
||||
- ✅ Shared: Media file persistence across deployments
|
||||
|
||||
### Platform Compatibility ✅
|
||||
|
||||
**Supported Deployment Platforms:**
|
||||
- ✅ Docker Compose (local and production)

|
||||
- ✅ Railway (container deployment)
|
||||
- ✅ DigitalOcean App Platform
|
||||
- ✅ AWS ECS/Fargate

||||
- ✅ Google Cloud Run
|
||||
|
||||
## Performance Considerations ✅
|
||||
|
||||
### Backend Optimization

||||
- ✅ Modern build targets
|
||||
|
||||
### Development Performance

|
||||
- ✅ Django auto-reload for backend changes
|
||||
- ✅ Fast dependency installation with UV and pnpm
|
||||
- ✅ Concurrent development servers
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Validation ✅
|
||||
|
||||
### Backend Security
|
||||
- ✅ Django security middleware maintained
|
||||
- ✅ CORS configuration for API access
|
||||
- ✅ Authentication token management
|
||||
- ✅ Input validation and sanitization
|
||||
|
||||
### Frontend Security
|
||||

|
||||
- ✅ XSS protection mechanisms
|
||||
- ✅ Secure API communication (HTTPS)
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Risk Assessment and Mitigation
|
||||
|
||||
### Low Risk Items ✅
|
||||
- **File organization**: Clear mapping and systematic approach
|
||||
- **Package management**: Both UV and pnpm are stable and well-supported
|
||||
- **Development workflow**: Incremental changes to existing process
|
||||
|
||||
### Medium Risk Items ⚠️
|
||||
- **Import path updates**: Requires careful testing of all Django apps
|
||||
- **Static file handling**: Need to verify Django admin continues working
|
||||
- **API integration**: New frontend-backend communication layer
|
||||
|
||||
**Mitigation Strategies:**
|
||||
- Comprehensive testing suite for Django apps after migration
|
||||
- Static file serving verification in development and production
|
||||
- API endpoint testing and documentation
|
||||
- Gradual migration approach with rollback capabilities
|
||||
|
||||
### High Risk Items 🔴
|
||||
- **Data migration**: Database changes during restructuring
|
||||
- **Production deployment**: New deployment process requires validation
|
||||
|
||||
**Mitigation Strategies:**
|
||||
- Database backup before any structural changes
|
||||
- Staging environment testing before production deployment
|
||||
- Blue-green deployment strategy for zero-downtime migration
|
||||
- Monitoring and alerting for post-migration issues
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing Strategy Validation
|
||||
|
||||
### Backend Testing ✅
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Django tests
|
||||
cd backend
|
||||

||||
# Code quality
|
||||
uv run flake8 .
|
||||
uv run black --check .
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Frontend Testing ✅
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Vue.js tests
|
||||
cd frontend
|
||||
pnpm run test
|
||||
pnpm run test:unit
|
||||
pnpm run test:e2e
|
||||
|
||||
# Code quality
|
||||
pnpm run lint
|
||||
pnpm run type-check
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Integration Testing ✅
|
||||
- API endpoint testing
|
||||
- Frontend-backend communication testing
|
||||
- Media file access testing
