refactor(plugins): extract replacement JAR storage in JarUploadService

Add storeReplacementJar, which validates a JAR through the upload
pipeline and stores it under a unique file name without overwriting the
current JAR, and extract signature verification and non-production
auto-approve so upload and the upcoming replace flow share them.

feat(plugins): replace the JAR of an existing job definition

Add PUT /jobs/definitions/{id}/jar so operators can replace or roll back
a plugin, including one with execution history, on the same definition
id. Under the per-definition lifecycle lock it unloads the plugin
(409 on running executions), stores the validated JAR under a unique
name, updates path, checksum, version, and main class in one
transaction, resets approval to PENDING, and deletes the previous JAR
only after commit. JAR_REPLACED is audited with the final outcome.

The dynamic loading integration test now builds its plugin JAR with the
correct entry paths, so the plugin is loaded from the JAR itself.

Closes #108

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added the ability to replace a job’s JAR in place while retaining its definition ID and execution history.
    • Replacements require approval and loading before the plugin can run again. Attempts to replace a job with active executions are rejected.
    • Added guidance for replacing JARs in the developer guide, production checklist, and runbook.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Invalid replacements leave the existing JAR and job details unchanged.

📝 Walkthrough

Adds an in-place JAR replacement API for job definitions. The replacement keeps the definition ID and execution history, validates and stores a new JAR, and resets approval and load state. Tests and operator documentation cover replacement outcomes and the approval and loading steps.

Changes: Plugin JAR replacement

Layer / File(s) Summary
Replacement JAR storage and validation
fr-batch-service/src/main/java/com/fronzec/frbatchservice/batchjobs/plugins/service/JarUploadService.java, fr-batch-service/src/test/java/com/fronzec/frbatchservice/batchjobs/plugins/service/JarUploadServiceTest.java
JarUploadService stores replacement JARs under unique names, checks the declared main-class entry and signature policy, and provides configured auto-approval. Tests cover storage, validation, and auto-approval.
Locked replacement lifecycle
fr-batch-service/src/main/java/com/fronzec/frbatchservice/batchjobs/plugins/loader/DynamicJobLoaderService.java, fr-batch-service/src/main/java/com/fronzec/frbatchservice/batchjobs/plugins/audit/AuditEventType.java, fr-batch-service/src/test/java/com/fronzec/frbatchservice/batchjobs/plugins/loader/DynamicJobLoaderServiceTest.java
The loader unloads the plugin, stores the replacement, and updates JAR metadata transactionally. It resets approval and load state, then handles auto-approval, old-JAR cleanup, and audit outcomes. Tests cover success, failure, and lifecycle locking.
Management API and replacement workflow
fr-batch-service/src/main/java/com/fronzec/frbatchservice/web/JobManagementController.java, fr-batch-service/docs/job-plugins/developer-guide.md, fr-batch-service/docs/production-checklist.md, fr-batch-service/docs/runbook.md, fr-batch-service/src/test/java/com/fronzec/frbatchservice/batchjobs/plugins/loader/DynamicJobLoadingIntegrationTest.java, fr-batch-service/src/test/java/com/fronzec/frbatchservice/web/PluginManagementIntegrationTest.java
The management API exposes PUT /definitions/{id}/jar. Integration tests and documentation cover retained IDs and history, replacement validation, approval, and loading.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to f61b2

Replacement works on the covered success paths, but an interrupted upload can leave a partial JAR that requires cleanup. This is a bounded risk to address before or shortly after merge.

Explanation

Issue #108 requires replacement or rollback with execution history, preserved audit data, documentation, and tests. The PR adds PUT /jobs/definitions/{id}/jar, keeps the definition ID, updates the JAR metadata transactionally, retains execution history, and emits JAR_REPLACED audit events. The integration tests cover replacement with history and invalid replacement behavior. The production checklist and runbook document the replacement procedure and update the previous upload step. The in-place update uses existing schema fields, so no Flyway migration is required.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The changes stay within issue #108. The shared JarUploadService logic, lifecycle replacement flow, controller endpoint, audit event, documentation, and tests directly support plugin replacement and rollback. The PR does not change DELETE semantics or add distributed locking.

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 61.02% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff. Analyzed 59 functions across 8 files. (3 skipped: 3 unsupported.)

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

⚠️ Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.

Run auto-approval before you delete the previous JAR, or document the order.

The Javadoc says auto-approval runs after commit and then the previous JAR is deleted. The code deletes the previous JAR first and runs auto-approval second. Behavior is correct in both orders. The implemented order and the documented order differ. Swap the two calls or update the Javadoc.

Clean up the target when Files.copy fails.

The replacement endpoint accepts a reachable MultipartFile. Files.copy can leave an incomplete target when an input-stream I/O error occurs after some bytes are written. storeFile wraps that error before storeReplacementJar enters its cleanup block. The caller then sees storedJar == null and skips discardStoredJar. A partial, unreferenced unique JAR can remain in the storage directory and consume disk space across repeated failed replacements.

Suggested fix
         try {
             Files.copy(file.getInputStream(), target, options);
         } catch (IOException e) {
+            try {
+                Files.deleteIfExists(target);

Add storeReplacementJar, which validates a JAR through the upload
pipeline and stores it under a unique file name without overwriting the
current JAR, and extract signature verification and non-production
auto-approve so upload and the upcoming replace flow share them.
Add PUT /jobs/definitions/{id}/jar so operators can replace or roll back
a plugin, including one with execution history, on the same definition
id. Under the per-definition lifecycle lock it unloads the plugin
(409 on running executions), stores the validated JAR under a unique
name, updates path, checksum, version, and main class in one
transaction, resets approval to PENDING, and deletes the previous JAR
only after commit. JAR_REPLACED is audited with the final outcome.

The dynamic loading integration test now builds its plugin JAR with the
correct entry paths, so the plugin is loaded from the JAR itself.

Closes #108
Delete the target when Files.copy fails mid-stream so a failed replacement
does not leave an unreferenced partial JAR, but keep the file on a name
collision, which this call did not write. Align the replaceJar Javadoc
with the post-commit order.
