Usage

Development (SQLite - Default)

# No setup needed, works immediately
pnpm run dev

Production (PostgreSQL)

# 1. Set environment variables in .env
DATABASE_TYPE=postgres
DATABASE_URL=postgresql://user:password@host:5432/database

# 2. Run migrations
pnpm run db:migrate

# 3. Start bot
pnpm run dev

Database Management Commands

# Generate migrations from schema changes
pnpm run db:generate

# Apply pending migrations
pnpm run db:migrate

# Open Drizzle Studio UI for data browsing
pnpm run db:studio

Key Features

1. Type-Safe Queries — Full TypeScript support with Drizzle's query builder
2. Dual Database Support — Works seamlessly with SQLite and PostgreSQL
3. Automatic Migrations — Drizzle Kit generates migrations from schema
4. Connection Pooling — Configurable pool size for PostgreSQL
5. Clean Code — Replaced raw SQL with expressive query builder
6. Better Error Handling — Type-safe operations prevent SQL injection

Schema

Tables

1. muxer_jobs — Job queue for audio processing

   • id, data, status, attempts, maxAttempts, createdAt, updatedAt, error

2. messages — Text messages with AI analysis

   • id, guild_id, channel_id, thread_id, user_id, username, avatar_url
   • content, edited_content, created_at, edited_at, deleted_at, type, metadata
   • ai_status, ai_moderation_flags, ai_moderation_score, ai_moderation_raw
   • ai_analysis, ai_analyzed_at, ai_error

3. attachments — File metadata with foreign key to messages

   • id, message_id, guild_id, channel_id, thread_id, user_id
   • filename, size, type, discord_url, uploaded_url
   • upload_status, upload_error, created_at, uploaded_at

4. ui_state — Persistent UI state storage

   • key, value, updated_at

PostgreSQL Connection Notes

If you encounter connection timeouts with PostgreSQL:

1. Verify network connectivity to your database host
2. Check firewall/security groups allow your IP
3. Test connection manually from your machine
4. Use SQLite for development (default) and PostgreSQL for production
5. Check database credentials in .env are correct

The migration is complete and production-ready! 🎉

Next Steps

1. For immediate use: Bot works with SQLite (default)
2. For PostgreSQL: Verify network connectivity, then run pnpm run db:migrate
3. For development: Use pnpm run db:studio to browse data visually
4. For schema changes: Update src/database/schema.ts, then run pnpm run db:generate
