This approach was overengineered because: + +1. **ETags already provide deduplication** - Each unique data snapshot has a unique ETag +2. **Historical year/month structure was redundant** - The publication date (year/month) is metadata, not data identity +3. **No R2 support** - Files could only be stored locally, not in production R2 bucket +4. **Unnecessary complexity** - Downloading 220+ URLs hoping to find unique ETags when we only need the latest + +## Architecture Analysis + +### Key Insight + +**What does each file represent?** + +USDA publishes monthly snapshots, but most months they re-publish the same data. The ETag tells you when the *actual data* has changed, not when USDA published it. The year/month structure is publication metadata, not data identity. + +### The Data-Oriented Question + +**What do we actually need?** + +We need to capture every unique data snapshot. The ETag already identifies unique snapshots. The current approach downloads 220+ URLs to find unique ETags. The direct approach: check 1 URL (current month), download if new ETag, done. + +## Proposed Solution + +### 1. Simplify to Current-Month-Only Extraction + +**Old approach:** +```python +for year in range(2006, today.year+1): + for month in range(1, 13): + download(year, month) # 220+ downloads +``` + +**New approach:** +```python +# Try current month, fallback 3 months (handles publication lag) +for months_back in range(4): + if download_if_exists(today.year, today.month - months_back): + break +``` + +**Why this works:** +- ETags naturally deduplicate +- Historical snapshots already captured from previous runs +- Only need to check for latest data +- Same result, 220x less work + +### 2. Flatten Storage Structure + +**Old:** `data/{year}/{month}/{etag}.zip` +**New:** `data/{etag}.zip` (local) or `landing/psd/{etag}.zip` (R2) + +**Benefits:** +- ETag is the natural identifier +- Simpler to manage +- No nested directory traversal +- Works identically for local and R2 + +### 3. Dual Storage Modes + +**Local Mode (Development):** +- No R2 credentials → downloads to local directory +- ETag-based deduplication via file existence check +- Use case: Local development and testing + +**R2 Mode (Production):** +- R2 credentials present → uploads to R2 only (no local storage) +- ETag-based deduplication via S3 HEAD request +- Use case: Production pipelines on ephemeral workers + +**Mode Detection:** +```python +use_r2 = all([R2_ENDPOINT, R2_BUCKET, R2_ACCESS_KEY, R2_SECRET_KEY]) +``` + +### 4. R2 Integration + +**Configuration:** +- Bucket: `beanflows-data-prod` +- Path: `landing/psd/{etag}.zip` +- Credentials: Via Pulumi ESC (`beanflows/prod`) +- Library: boto3 with S3-compatible API + +**Pulumi ESC Environment Variables:** +- `R2_ENDPOINT`: Account URL (without bucket path) +- `R2_BUCKET`: `beanflows-data-prod` +- `R2_ADMIN_ACCESS_KEY_ID`: Access key (fallback from R2_ACCESS_KEY) +- `R2_ADMIN_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`: Secret key (fallback from R2_SECRET_KEY) + +## Implementation Summary + +### Phase 1: Simplify Extraction ✅ +- Changed loop from 220+ historical downloads to current month check +- Added fallback logic (tries 4 months back for publication lag) +- Flattened storage to `{etag}.zip` +- Updated raw SQLMesh model pattern to `*.zip` + +### Phase 2: Add R2 Support ✅ +- Added boto3 dependency +- Implemented R2 upload with ETag deduplication +- Added support for ESC variable names +- Updated Pulumi ESC environment with R2_BUCKET and fixed R2_ENDPOINT + +### Phase 3: Historical Migration ✅ +- Created temporary script to upload 227 existing files to R2 +- All files now in `landing/psd/*.zip` +- Verified deduplication works on both local and R2 + +### Phase 4: Documentation ✅ +- Updated CLAUDE.md with Pulumi ESC usage guide +- Fixed supervisor bootstrap documentation (automatic in CI/CD) +- Added examples for running commands with ESC secrets + +## Benefits Achieved + +1. **Simplicity:** Single file check instead of 220+ URL attempts +2. **Efficiency:** ETag-based deduplication works naturally +3. **Flexibility:** Supports both local dev and production R2 storage +4. **Maintainability:** Removed unnecessary complexity +5. **Cost Optimization:** Ephemeral workers don't need local storage +6. **Data Consistency:** All historical data now in R2 landing bucket + +## Testing Results + +✅ Local extraction works and respects ETags +✅ R2 upload works (tested with Sept 2025 data) +✅ R2 deduplication works (skips existing files) +✅ Fallback logic works (tries current month, falls back to Sept) +✅ Historical migration completed (227 files uploaded) +✅ All linting passes + +## Metrics + +- **Code reduction:** ~40 lines removed, ~80 lines added (net +40 for R2 support) +- **Download efficiency:** 220+ requests → 1-4 requests +- **Storage structure:** Nested 3-level → Flat 1-level +- **Files migrated:** 227 historical files to R2 +- **Time to migrate:** ~2 minutes for 227 files (~2.3 GB) + +## Next Steps + +1. Update SQLMesh raw model to support reading from R2 (future work) +2. Merge branch to master +3. Deploy to production +4.
