# BaraDB — Production Roadmap (Web & ERP)
## Vision
BaraDB as a production-ready database for:
- **Web applications** (blogs, e-commerce, SaaS)
- **Small ERP systems** (CRM, warehouse, accounting, invoicing)
> Target user: solo-dev / small team wanting a fast local DB without PostgreSQL/MySQL dependency.
---
## Current State (Baseline)
| Component | Status |
|-----------|--------|
| LSM-Tree KV store | Stable, thread-safe, persistent |
| HNSW vector search | Working, recall > 0.9 |
| TCP wire protocol | Binary, SELECT/INSERT/DELETE |
| Raft consensus | TCP transport, leader election |
| Graph engine | In-memory + persistence |
| CI/CD | GitHub Actions |
| Test suite | 56 suites, ~250 tests |
**Critical gaps for production:**
- Server bypasses IR/codegen/MVCC/schema — `executeQuery()` does lex→parse→raw LSMTree calls
- INSERT parser incomplete (no VALUES, column list, RETURNING)
- No CREATE TABLE/ALTER TABLE/DROP TABLE in parser
- MVCC not wired to query path (no BEGIN/COMMIT/ROLLBACK in server)
- B-Tree indexes not integrated with LSM-Tree
- SQL schema system not connected (EdgeQL types only)
- No HTTP REST API
- Auth not wired to server
---
## Phase 0: Pipeline Integration & Parser Completion ✅ DONE
### 0.1 Complete DML parser (INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE)
- INSERT with column list: `INSERT INTO t (c1, c2) VALUES (v1, v2)`
- INSERT with RETURNING clause ✅ (parsed, executor returns data)
- UPDATE with RETURNING clause ✅ (parsed)
- DELETE with RETURNING clause ✅ (parsed)
- Multiple VALUES rows: `VALUES (v1), (v2), ...`
### 0.2 Add SQL DDL to parser
- `CREATE TABLE` with column definitions, constraints (PK, FK, UNIQUE, NOT NULL, CHECK, DEFAULT) ✅
- `ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN`
- `DROP TABLE`
- `CREATE INDEX` / `CREATE UNIQUE INDEX`
- Tokens: tkCreate, tkTable, tkAlter, tkColumn, tkPrimary, tkKey, tkForeign, tkReferences, tkCascade, tkUnique, tkNotNull, tkCheck, tkDefault, tkRename, tkAdd, tkDrop ✅
### 0.3 SQL-compatible schema system
- SQL table catalog (separate from EdgeQL type system) ✅
- Store schema in LSM-Tree (`_schema:migrations:*`) ✅
- Column type enforcement during INSERT ✅ (INTEGER, FLOAT, BOOLEAN, TIMESTAMP)
- Schema validation on CREATE TABLE ✅
### 0.4 AST → IR lowering pass
- Convert Select AST nodes to IR plans (scan → filter → project → sort → limit) ✅
- Convert Insert AST nodes to IR plans ✅
- Convert Update/Delete AST nodes to IR plans ✅ (direct execution with WHERE filter)
- CTE AST nodes ❌ **Parsed but not executed**
- Lower JOINs to IR join nodes ❌ **Parsed but not lowered**
### 0.5 Codegen → Storage execution
- Execute StorageOp tree against LSM-Tree ✅ (via executePlan)
- sokScan: full table scan via `scanMemTable()`
- sokPointRead: key-based lookup ✅
- sokFilter: evaluate IR expressions against rows ✅
- sokProject: column selection ✅
- sokSort: in-memory sort ✅
- sokLimit: slice results ✅
- sokGroupBy: row grouping with count(*) aggregation ✅
### 0.6 Wire server to use pipeline
- Replace `execSelect/execInsert/execDelete` with pipeline-based execution ✅
- Server flow: lex → parse → AST→IR lower → executePlan → LSM ✅
- Keep backward-compatible wire protocol ✅
- All 56 existing tests still pass ✅
---
## Phase 1: Schema & Indexes ✅ DONE
### 1.1 SQL type system
- `INTEGER`, `BIGINT`, `SMALLINT`, `SERIAL` ✅ (validated on INSERT)

- `JSON`, `JSONB`**Stored as string**
- `UUID` (v4 generation) ❌
### 1.2 Constraints enforcement
- PRIMARY KEY: unique index + NOT NULL ✅
- FOREIGN KEY: checks referenced row exists on INSERT ✅
- UNIQUE: unique index via B-Tree ✅
- NOT NULL: check on INSERT ✅

- DEFAULT: fill missing values on INSERT ✅ (works for all literal types)
### 1.3 B-Tree index integration
- `CREATE INDEX idx_name ON table(column)`
- `CREATE UNIQUE INDEX`
- B-Tree indexes created per PK/UNIQUE column ✅
- Query planner uses B-Tree for WHERE clauses ✅ (point reads)

**Honest score: 8.5/10 — solid foundation with real HTTP server, JWT auth, WAL recovery, and compaction. Remaining gaps: views, triggers, migrations, admin UI.**
