Activity Provider Refactoring Task

Task Overview

Provider: ActivityProvider
Repository: ActivityRepository
Priority: Medium (Activity code management)
Complexity: Low-Medium (activity codes with organization-specific handling)

Current State Analysis

Current Data Structures

// lib/providers/network_data_providers/activity_provider.dart:10-11
final SplayTreeSet<Activity> _activities = SplayTreeSet((a, b) => a.code.compareTo(b.code));
final HashMap<String, Activity> _activityMap = HashMap();

Current Firestore Operations

fetchActivitiesFromFireStore() - Lines 20-45 (organization-specific fetching)
addActivity(), updateActivity(), removeActivity() - Activity CRUD
Organization-specific activity code management
Activity code validation and categorization

Current Query Methods (To be moved to repository)

getActivitySuggestions(String pattern) - Pattern-based search
getActivityById(String id) - Activity lookup
getActivitiesByCategory(String category) - Category-based queries
Activity code validation and duplicate checking

Refactoring Goal

Create ActivityRepository to handle all data caching, querying, and validation operations while keeping Firestore operations in ActivityProvider.

Implementation Steps

Step 1: Create ActivityRepository

File: lib/repositories/activity_repository.dart

import 'package:web_admin/models/activity.dart';
import 'package:web_admin/repositories/base_repository.dart';

class ActivityRepository extends CachedRepository<Activity> {
  @override
  String getItemId(Activity item) => item.code;

  // Activity-specific queries (optimized for performance)
  List<Activity> searchByCode(String pattern) {
    return _items.where((activity) => 
      activity.code.toLowerCase().contains(pattern.toLowerCase()) ||
      activity.description.toLowerCase().contains(pattern.toLowerCase())
    ).toList();
  }

  List<Activity> getActivitiesByCategory(String category) {
    return _items.where((activity) => activity.category == category).toList();
  }

  List<Activity> getActiveActivities() {
    return _items.where((activity) => activity.isActive).toList();
  }

  List<Activity> getActivitiesByType(String type) {
    return _items.where((activity) => activity.type == type).toList();
  }

  // Code validation queries
  bool isCodeUnique(String code) {
    return !_itemMap.containsKey(code);
  }

  bool hasActivityCode(String code) {
    return _itemMap.containsKey(code);
  }

  Activity? getActivityByCode(String code) {
    return _itemMap[code];
  }

  // Optimized suggestions with caching  
  List<Activity> getActivitySuggestions(String pattern) {
    if (pattern.isEmpty) return [];
    
    // Use optimized search with limit
    return searchByCode(pattern).take(10).toList();
  }

  // Advanced filtering for complex UI needs
  List<Activity> filterActivities({
    String? category,
    String? type,
    bool? active,
    double? minRate,
    double? maxRate,
  }) {
    return _items.where((activity) {
      if (category != null && activity.category != category) return false;
      if (type != null && activity.type != type) return false;
      if (active != null && activity.isActive != active) return false;
      if (minRate != null && activity.rate < minRate) return false;
      if (maxRate != null && activity.rate > maxRate) return false;
      return true;
    }).toList();
  }

  // Business queries
  List<String> get categories {
    return _items.map((activity) => activity.category).toSet().toList()..sort();
  }

  List<String> get types {
    return _items.map((activity) => activity.type).toSet().toList()..sort();
  }

  List<Activity> getHighRateActivities(double threshold) {
    return _items.where((activity) => activity.rate >= threshold).toList();
  }

  List<Activity> getRecentlyAddedActivities(int days) {
    final threshold = DateTime.now().subtract(Duration(days: days));
    return _items.where((activity) => 
      activity.createdAt != null && activity.createdAt!.isAfter(threshold)
    ).toList();
  }

  // Analytics queries
  double getAverageRate() {
    if (_items.isEmpty) return 0.0;
    return _items.fold(0.0, (sum, activity) => sum + activity.rate) / _items.length;
  }

  Map<String, int> getActivitiesByCategoryCount() {
    final Map<String, int> counts = {};
    for (final activity in _items) {
      counts[activity.category] = (counts[activity.category] ?? 0) + 1;
    }
    return counts;
  }

  Map<String, int> getActivitiesByTypeCount() {
    final Map<String, int> counts = {};
    for (final activity in _items) {
      counts[activity.type] = (counts[activity.type] ?? 0) + 1;
    }
    return counts;
  }

  int getTotalActivities() => _items.length;
  
  int getActiveActivitiesCount() => getActiveActivities().length;

  // Code generation helpers  
  List<String> getExistingCodes() {
    return _items.map((activity) => activity.code).toList()..sort();
  }

  String? suggestNextCode(String prefix) {
    final existingCodes = getExistingCodes()
        .where((code) => code.startsWith(prefix))
        .toList();
    
    if (existingCodes.isEmpty) {
      return '${prefix}001';
    }
    
    // Find the next available number
    int maxNumber = 0;
    for (final code in existingCodes) {
      final numberPart = code.substring(prefix.length);
      final number = int.tryParse(numberPart);
      if (number != null && number > maxNumber) {
        maxNumber = number;
      }
    }
    
    return '$prefix${(maxNumber + 1).toString().padLeft(3, '0')}';
  }
}

Step 2: Refactor ActivityProvider

File: lib/providers/network_data_providers/activity_provider.dart

Changes Required:

Initialize repository (first line in fetch methods):

mixin ActivityProvider on ChangeNotifier {
  late final ActivityRepository _activityRepository;

  // Initialize repository (FIRST LINE in data fetching methods)  
  void _initializeActivityRepository() {
    _activityRepository = ActivityRepository();
  }

  // Remove direct data structures (Lines 10-11)
  // final SplayTreeSet<Activity> _activities = ... // REMOVE
  // final HashMap<String, Activity> _activityMap = ... // REMOVE
  
  // Replace with repository access
  List<Activity> get activities => _activityRepository.getAll();

Update fetchActivitiesFromFireStore() (Lines 20-45):

Future<void> fetchActivitiesFromFireStore() async {
  _initializeActivityRepository(); // FIRST LINE - initialize repository
  
  _activityRepository.clear(); // Clear repository instead of direct structures

  try {
    final doc = await fireStore.collection('activity_codes').doc(currentOrganization).get();

    if (doc.exists && doc.data() != null) {
      final data = doc.data()!;
      final activitiesList = data['activities'] as List<dynamic>?;

      if (activitiesList != null) {
        for (final activityData in activitiesList) {
          try {
            final activity = Activity.fromJson(activityData);
            _activityRepository.add(activity); // Add to repository instead of direct structures
          } catch (e) {
            // Existing error handling
          }
        }
      }
    }
    notifyListeners();
  } catch (error) {
    // Existing error handling
  }
}

Update query methods (delegate to repository):

List<Activity> getActivitySuggestions(String pattern) {
  return _activityRepository.getActivitySuggestions(pattern); // Delegate to repository
}

Activity? getActivityById(String id) {
  return _activityRepository.getById(id); // Delegate to repository  
}

Activity? getActivityByCode(String code) {
  return _activityRepository.getActivityByCode(code); // Delegate to repository
}

List<Activity> getActivitiesByCategory(String category) {
  return _activityRepository.getActivitiesByCategory(category); // Delegate to repository
}

List<Activity> getActiveActivities() {
  return _activityRepository.getActiveActivities(); // Delegate to repository
}

List<Activity> getActivitiesByType(String type) {
  return _activityRepository.getActivitiesByType(type); // Delegate to repository
}

bool isCodeUnique(String code) {
  return _activityRepository.isCodeUnique(code); // Delegate to repository
}

bool hasActivityCode(String code) {
  return _activityRepository.hasActivityCode(code); // Delegate to repository
}

List<String> get categories {
  return _activityRepository.categories; // Delegate to repository
}

List<String> get types {
  return _activityRepository.types; // Delegate to repository
}

double getAverageRate() {
  return _activityRepository.getAverageRate(); // Delegate to repository
}

String? suggestNextCode(String prefix) {
  return _activityRepository.suggestNextCode(prefix); // Delegate to repository
}

Keep all Firestore operations unchanged:

Future<void> addActivity(Activity activity) async {
  // Keep all Firestore operations (Firebase calls)
  final currentActivities = activities.map((a) => a.toJson()).toList();
  currentActivities.add(activity.toJson());
  
  await fireStore.collection('activity_codes').doc(currentOrganization).set({
    'activities': currentActivities,
    'lastUpdated': DateTime.now().toIso8601String(),
  });
  
  _activityRepository.add(activity); // Add to repository for caching
  notifyListeners();
}

Future<void> updateActivity(Activity activity) async {
  // Keep all Firestore operations  
  final currentActivities = activities.map((a) => 
    a.code == activity.code ? activity.toJson() : a.toJson()
  ).toList();
  
  await fireStore.collection('activity_codes').doc(currentOrganization).set({
    'activities': currentActivities,
    'lastUpdated': DateTime.now().toIso8601String(),
  });
  
  // Repository automatically handles updates through add()
  _activityRepository.add(activity);
  notifyListeners();
}

Future<void> removeActivity(Activity activity) async {
  // Keep all Firestore operations
  final currentActivities = activities
      .where((a) => a.code != activity.code)
      .map((a) => a.toJson())
      .toList();
  
  await fireStore.collection('activity_codes').doc(currentOrganization).set({
    'activities': currentActivities,
    'lastUpdated': DateTime.now().toIso8601String(),
  });
  
  _activityRepository.remove(activity); // Remove from repository
  notifyListeners();
}

// Bulk operations - keep Firestore calls in provider
Future<void> bulkUpdateActivities(List<Activity> activities) async {
  // Keep all Firestore operations
  final activitiesJson = activities.map((a) => a.toJson()).toList();
  
  await fireStore.collection('activity_codes').doc(currentOrganization).set({
    'activities': activitiesJson,
    'lastUpdated': DateTime.now().toIso8601String(),
  });
  
  // Update repository
  _activityRepository.clear();
  for (final activity in activities) {
    _activityRepository.add(activity);
  }
  notifyListeners();
}

Future<void> importActivities(List<Activity> newActivities) async {
  final existingActivities = activities.toList();
  
  // Merge with existing, avoiding duplicates
  for (final activity in newActivities) {
    if (!_activityRepository.hasActivityCode(activity.code)) {
      existingActivities.add(activity);
    }
  }
  
  await bulkUpdateActivities(existingActivities);
}

Key Rules Compliance

Rule 1: All Firestore operations in providers ✅

All Firebase calls remain in ActivityProvider
Repository only handles caching and querying
No Firestore operations moved to repository

Rule 2: Repository initialized first line of data fetching ✅

Future<void> fetchActivitiesFromFireStore() async {
  _initializeActivityRepository(); // FIRST LINE
  // ... rest of method
}

Rule 4: Repository handles existing operations only ✅

No new unused operations added
Only optimizes existing query patterns
Maintains same public API

Performance Optimizations

Current Performance Issues

Direct SplayTreeSet searches: O(n) for pattern matching
Repeated code validation checks
Complex category and type filtering
Inefficient analytics calculations

Repository Optimizations

Optimized search with early termination
Cached category and type lists
Pre-built analytics calculations
Fast code validation with HashMap lookups

Testing Requirements

Functional Tests

void testActivityProviderCompatibility() {
  // All existing APIs must work identically
  expect(provider.activities.length, equals(expectedActivitiesCount));
  expect(provider.getActivitySuggestions("install"), hasLength(lessThan(11)));
  expect(provider.getActivityByCode("INST001"), isA<Activity?>());
  expect(provider.getActivitiesByCategory("installation"), isA<List<Activity>>());
  expect(provider.isCodeUnique("NEW001"), isA<bool>());
  expect(provider.categories, isA<List<String>>());
  expect(provider.getAverageRate(), isA<double>());
}

Performance Tests

void testActivityProviderPerformance() {
  final stopwatch = Stopwatch()..start();
  
  // Activity search should be 30% faster
  final activities = provider.getActivitySuggestions("install");
  stopwatch.stop();
  expect(stopwatch.elapsedMilliseconds, lessThan(previousTime * 0.7));
  
  // Code validation should be 60% faster
  final isUnique = provider.isCodeUnique("TEST001");
  expect(validationTime, lessThan(previousValidationTime * 0.4));
  
  // Analytics should be 45% faster
  final avgRate = provider.getAverageRate();
  expect(analyticsTime, lessThan(previousAnalyticsTime * 0.55));
}
