# Subdirectory Discovery Bug Fix ## Issue Summary The ETag optimization feature was failing to discover subdirectories during first-time scans, causing it to report "No known subdirectories" and miss thousands of files. ### Root Cause In `src/services/webdav_service.rs:933-936`, the `check_subdirectories_for_changes` function was returning empty results when no subdirectories were previously tracked in the database: ```rust // BUGGY CODE (before fix) if subdirectories.is_empty() { info!("📁 No known subdirectories for {}, no changes to process", parent_path); return Ok(Vec::new()); // ❌ This was the bug! } ``` This logic assumed that if a directory's ETag was unchanged, we only needed to check previously-known subdirectories. However, this failed for directories that hadn't been fully scanned before. ### The Fix Changed the function to fall back to a full recursive scan when no subdirectories are known: ```rust // FIXED CODE (after fix) if subdirectories.is_empty() { info!("📁 No known subdirectories for {}, performing initial scan to discover structure", parent_path); return self.discover_files_in_folder_impl(parent_path).await; // ✅ Fixed! } ``` ### Files Changed 1. **`src/services/webdav_service.rs:933-936`** - Fixed the core logic 2. **`tests/integration_webdav_first_time_scan_tests.rs`** - New integration tests 3. **`tests/unit_webdav_subdirectory_edge_cases_tests.rs`** - New unit tests ### Test Coverage Added #### Integration Tests (`integration_webdav_first_time_scan_tests.rs`) - `test_first_time_directory_scan_with_subdirectories()` - Tests the exact bug scenario - `test_subdirectory_tracking_after_full_scan()` - Verifies proper tracking after discovery - `test_direct_child_identification_edge_cases()` - Tests path logic with realistic paths - `test_file_count_accuracy_per_directory()` - Verifies correct file counting - `test_size_calculation_accuracy()` - Verifies size calculations #### Unit Tests (`unit_webdav_subdirectory_edge_cases_tests.rs`) - `test_comprehensive_directory_extraction()` - Tests directory structure extraction - `test_first_time_scan_scenario_logic()` - Tests the exact bug logic - `test_directory_etag_mapping_accuracy()` - Tests ETag handling - `test_direct_file_counting_precision()` - Tests file counting logic - `test_total_size_calculation_per_directory()` - Tests size calculations - `test_path_edge_cases_and_normalization()` - Tests path handling edge cases - `test_bug_scenario_file_count_verification()` - Specifically tests the 7046 files scenario ### Expected Behavior Now **Before Fix:** ``` 📁 No known subdirectories for /FullerDocuments/JonDocuments, no changes to process Found 0 files in folder /FullerDocuments/JonDocuments ``` **After Fix:** ``` 📁 No known subdirectories for /FullerDocuments/JonDocuments, performing initial scan to discover structure [Performs full recursive scan] Found 7046 files in folder /FullerDocuments/JonDocuments ``` ### Why This Fix is Safe 1. **Performance**: Only affects first-time scans or completely empty directories 2. **Correctness**: Ensures all files are discovered even when ETag optimization is enabled 3. **Backward Compatibility**: Doesn't change behavior for directories with known subdirectories 4. **Robustness**: Falls back to the tried-and-tested full scan method ### Test Verification The fix has been verified with comprehensive test coverage that includes: - Real-world directory structures similar to the user's environment - Edge cases for path handling and file counting - Integration scenarios that test the full optimization workflow - Unit tests that isolate the specific logic that was failing ### Summary This fix ensures that the ETag optimization feature works correctly for first-time directory scans while maintaining all the performance benefits for subsequent scans where subdirectories are already known.
