## Overview
This document describes the clean database schema for BREEDR. **NO migrations** - fresh installs create the correct schema automatically.
This document describes the database schema for BREEDR. The application uses SQLite via `better-sqlite3`.
**Safe Migrations:** The schema is maintained in `server/db/init.js`. On startup, the application automatically ensures all tables exist and all necessary columns are present using safe `ALTER TABLE` guards.
## Schema Design
### Core Principle: Parents Table Approach
The `dogs` table **does NOT have sire/dam columns**. Parent relationships are stored in the separate `parents` table. This design:
- Keeps the schema clean and normalized
- Allows flexible parent relationships
- Supports future extensions (multiple sires, surrogates, etc.)
The `dogs` table **does NOT have sire/dam columns**. Parent relationships are stored in a separate `parents` table. This design:
- Keeps the core dog data normalized.
- Allows for flexible parent relationships.
- Supports historical mapping where ancestors might not have full profiles initially.

## Tables
### dogs
Core registry for all dogs (both in-kennel and external).

### traits
## Migration Policy
Genetic trait tracking and inheritance.
BREEDR uses a **Migration-Free** sync approach:
1. `init.js` defines the latest `CREATE TABLE` statements.
2. An `ADD COLUMN` loop checks for existing columns.
3. If a column is missing, it is injected via `ALTER TABLE`.
4. This ensures users can pull latest code and restart without losing data.
```sql
CREATE TABLE traits (
id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
dog_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
trait_category TEXT NOT NULL,
trait_name TEXT NOT NULL,
trait_value TEXT NOT NULL,
inherited_from INTEGER, -- Parent dog ID
notes TEXT,
FOREIGN KEY (dog_id) REFERENCES dogs(id) ON DELETE CASCADE,
FOREIGN KEY (inherited_from) REFERENCES dogs(id) ON DELETE SET NULL
);
```
## API Usage
### Creating a Dog with Parents
```javascript
POST /api/dogs
{
"name": "Puppy Name",
"breed": "Breed Name",
"sex": "male",
"sire_id": 5, // Parent male dog ID
"dam_id": 8, // Parent female dog ID
"litter_id": 2 // Optional: link to litter
}
```
The API route automatically:
1. Inserts the dog into `dogs` table (without sire/dam columns)
2. Creates entries in `parents` table linking to sire and dam
### Querying Parents
```sql
-- Get a dog's parents
SELECT p.parent_type, d.*
FROM parents p
JOIN dogs d ON p.parent_id = d.id
WHERE p.dog_id = ?;
-- Get a dog's offspring
SELECT d.*
FROM dogs d
JOIN parents p ON d.id = p.dog_id
WHERE p.parent_id = ?;
```
## Fresh Install
For a fresh install:
1. **Delete the old database** (if upgrading):
```bash
rm data/breedr.db
```
2. **Start the server** - it will create the correct schema automatically:
```bash
npm run dev
```
3. **Verify the schema**:
```bash
sqlite3 data/breedr.db ".schema dogs"
```
You should see `litter_id` but **NO** `sire_id` or `dam_id` columns.
## Troubleshooting
### "no such column: weight" or "no such column: sire_id"
**Solution:** Your database has an old schema. Delete it and let the app recreate it:
```bash
rm data/breedr.db
npm run dev
```
### Parent relationships not saving
Check server logs. You should see:
```
✓ Dog inserted with ID: 123
Adding sire relationship: dog 123 -> sire 5
✓ Sire relationship added
Adding dam relationship: dog 123 -> dam 8
✓ Dam relationship added
```
If relationships aren't being created, check that `sire_id` and `dam_id` are being sent in the API request.
## Database Files
- `server/db/init.js` - Creates clean schema, no migrations
- `server/routes/dogs.js` - Handles parent relationships via `parents` table
- `server/index.js` - Initializes database on startup
**NO MIGRATIONS!** The init file is the source of truth.
