Summary

  • WebServer now always decompresses Brotli content server-side rather than ever passing compressed bytes through to the client (sidesteps needing WebView-side dictionary/Compression-Dictionary-Transport support entirely, since the client never sees compressed bytes).
  • Loads the shared CompressionDictionary (see the companion OfflineDocumentationTools PR) once at startup and again on the debug-DB swap, attaching it via brotli4j's attachDictionary before decoding. Falls back to plain decode if the table doesn't exist (a database predating the dictionary migration).
  • Confirmed cross-tool compatibility empirically: content compressed by OfflineDocumentationTools' brotli-CLI pipeline decodes byte-for-byte correctly via brotli4j's attachDictionary, and the same in-memory dictionary buffer is safe to reuse across many decode calls.
  • Adds testImplementation(libs.brotli4j.linux.x64) — JVM unit tests exercising brotli4j's real native decoder had no native lib to load at all before this (pre-existing gap, not introduced here).
  • docs/documentation-database.md updated for CompressionDictionary and WebServer's always-decompress behavior.
  • Verified on a real device: built + installed a debug APK against the real, migrated documentation.db (299.0MB → 255.3MB after the companion PR's migration); tooltips and documentation pages render correctly.

Companion PR: appdevforall/OfflineDocumentationTools#26 (dictionary training + compression pipeline + whole-DB migration + docdb-studio fix).

Test plan

  • :app:compileV8DebugKotlin — clean
  • :app:testV8DebugUnitTestBrotliDictionaryDecodeTest (3 cases) + WebServerTest (2 cases), all pass
  • Real on-device verification: debug build installed on a physical arm64 device against the migrated documentation.db; tooltips and docs viewed and confirmed correct
  • Architecture self-review (raw-SQLite exception already covers WebServer.kt; new test dependency reuses an existing, previously-unused catalog entry)

WebServer now always decompresses brotli content server-side rather than
ever passing compressed bytes through to the client -- sidesteps needing
WebView-side dictionary support entirely, since the client never sees
compressed bytes. It loads CompressionDictionary once at startup, and again
on the debug-DB swap, and attaches it via brotli4j's attachDictionary before
decoding -- falling back to plain decode if the table doesn't exist (a
database that predates the dictionary migration).

Confirmed cross-tool compatibility empirically: content compressed by
OfflineDocumentationTools' brotli-CLI pipeline decodes byte-for-byte
correctly via brotli4j's attachDictionary, and the same in-memory dictionary
buffer is safe to reuse across many decode calls (WebServer holds one for
its whole lifetime). BrotliDictionaryDecodeTest embeds those real
cross-tool-produced fixtures as permanent regression coverage.

Also adds testImplementation(libs.brotli4j.linux.x64): JVM unit tests
exercising brotli4j's real native decoder had no native lib to load at all
before this and would fail with UnsatisfiedLinkError -- a pre-existing gap,
not introduced by this change, just never hit until now.

docs/documentation-database.md updated for CompressionDictionary and
WebServer's always-decompress behavior.

CodeRabbit flagged this test as asserting an unsupported invariant,
citing docs/documentation-database.md's claim that "wrong dictionary,
or none" doesn't reliably fail loudly. Verified empirically that the
two cases are actually distinct: a wrong dictionary decodes silently
to incorrect bytes (its distances resolve into real, just wrong,
bytes), but no dictionary at all reliably throws IOException, since
distances into the dictionary region are out of bounds for any
spec-compliant decoder. Narrowed the assertion from Exception to
IOException and corrected the doc to describe both failure modes
instead of conflating them.

Fixes 13 findings from a max-effort /code-review pass, most significant
first:

- Plugin-contributed Tier 3 docs (PluginDocumentationManager/BrotliCompressor)
  are plain brotli with no dictionary, but WebServer unconditionally attached
  the shared dictionary before decoding any brotli row -- every such page
  500'd. Extracted decompressBrotli(): tries the dictionary first, falls back
  to a plain decode on IOException. Verified empirically that a dictionary
  attached to a stream compressed without one reliably throws rather than
  silently decoding wrong bytes, so this fallback never lets a real
  dictionary-compressed row slip through unnoticed.
- loadCompressionDictionary() now wraps its whole body in one catch-all,
  matching DatabaseVersionResolver's existing pattern, instead of
  hand-anticipating individual failure cases. Fixes three related bugs this
  gap caused: a failed dictionary reload during the debug-DB swap left stale
  state with no retry; a dictionary-load failure at server startup aborted
  the entire server with no retry; a NULL dictionary blob threw an uncaught
  NPE.
- Extracted switchToDatabase() so database/databaseTimestamp/
  compressionDictionary/templateCache/bookshelfTemplateId are all
  swapped atomically in one place instead of duplicated across start() and
  the debug-swap block -- also fixes templateCache never being invalidated
  on a debug-DB swap, and a reopen-after-close ordering bug where a failed
  reopen left `database` referencing an already-closed handle.
- Added test coverage for the previously-untested no-dictionary/plugin-content
  decode path.
- Corrected docs/documentation-database.md's false "no dictionary-free
  content left" claim (contradicted by its own PluginDocumentationManager
  section) and the build.gradle.kts comment falsely claiming linux-x64 is
  the only platform this project's dev machines run JVM tests on.
- Minor: deduped the byte[]->direct-ByteBuffer idiom, removed a stale
  Accept-Encoding comment on a header no longer read.

Separately discovered (not caused by this PR, filed as ADFA-5168 instead of
fixed here): :app:testV8DebugUnitTest is flaky (~50% of full-suite runs)
due to Brotli4jLoader static state shared across one JVM test process
between AssetsInstallationHelperTest's mockkStatic and
BrotliDictionaryDecodeTest's real native load -- confirmed present on
bfb3baa already, independent of any change in this commit.

CodeRabbit caught a self-contradiction: line 34 already says non-Brotli
content uses format-specific compression, but the prior wording said
'every row' is dictionary-compressed. Scoped to migrated Content rows
with ContentTypes.compression = 'brotli'.

Per ticket comment: verifies WebServer fetches CompressionDictionary
only at startup and reuses the cached instance across every request,
never re-querying it per-request. Drives 3 real HTTP requests over a
socket against a mocked SQLiteDatabase and asserts the dictionary
query fired exactly once while the Content query fired 3 times.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Moved loadCompressionDictionary() out of switchToDatabase() (called
at startup and on the debug-DB swap) to right before the content
fetch in handleClient(). A database swap can bring in a database
with a different dictionary or none at all, so loading it right
where it's consumed -- rather than caching it at swap time -- keeps
it directly tied to whichever database is actually active when a
request needs it.

Updated the WebServerTest coverage added for the prior (now-reversed)
"load once, cache for app lifetime" behavior: it now asserts zero
dictionary queries before any request and one dictionary query per
content fetch (3 requests -> 3 queries). Updated docs/comments to
match.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Corrects the prior commit, which reloaded the dictionary on every
single request instead of only when the database actually changes.

Added compressionDictionaryStale, set by switchToDatabase() (startup
and the debug-DB swap) instead of eagerly loading the dictionary
there. The content-fetch site in handleClient() -- the one place the
dictionary is actually consumed -- checks the flag and only loads
when stale, clearing it once loaded. Net effect: loaded lazily (not
merely from starting the server), but cached across every request
against the same database, and reloaded exactly once when a swap
brings in a database with a different dictionary (or none).

Replaced the WebServerTest coverage accordingly: one test proves the
dictionary loads on first use and stays cached across repeated
requests against the same database; a second drives an actual
debug-DB swap and proves it reloads exactly once for the new
database, not on every subsequent request.

Review of PR #1677 found three things worth fixing.

The test native was pinned to linux-x64, so :app:testV8DebugUnitTest failed
with UnsatisfiedLinkError in @BeforeClass for anyone on macOS, Windows, or
linux-arm64 - a comment documented the breakage rather than fixing it.
Dispatch on the host's OS/arch instead, reusing the pattern already proven
in build-logic/plugins' build.gradle.kts. All six natives are already in
the version catalog.

BrotliDictionaryDecodeTest allocated its own direct buffer, a byte-for-byte
copy of production's toDirectByteBuffer, leaving the only code that builds
the runtime dictionary buffer untested. The two agree today, so this is a
regression risk rather than a live bug: attachDictionary reads the buffer's
capacity and ignores position/limit, so a later over-allocation there
(pooling, rounding, padding) would break every doc page on device while the
suite stayed green. The test now calls the production helper, and that
helper's KDoc records the exact-capacity requirement.

loadCompressionDictionary validated a missing table, an empty table, and a
NULL data column, but not a zero-length blob. That yields a 0-capacity
buffer, which attachDictionary rejects, so every row would fail its
dictionary decode, fall through to a plain decode that also fails, and
return HTTP 500 - with nothing above DEBUG to explain it. Added to the same
ladder so it gets the same one-line warning.

Left alone: peak heap on the chunked PDFs (always-decompress holds the
accumulator, its copy, and the output live at once) and the debug-DB swap
retrying every request after a failure. Both are pre-existing design
questions rather than regressions from this PR.

…ug DB

Two findings from the PR #1677 review that were deferred as design questions.

Peak heap on the largest bundled PDFs. Serving a >1 MB row concatenated its
chunks into a ByteArrayOutputStream and then called toByteArray(), so the
doubling buffer and its full copy were both live alongside the decompressed
output - roughly 35 MB transient for AndroidNotesForProfessionals.pdf (8.8 MB
over 9 chunks), a plausible OOM on a low-heap device. The chunks now stay a
list: brotli rows decode from a SequenceInputStream over them, and non-brotli
rows are joined once into an exactly-sized array. That drops the two largest
transients, leaving the compressed chunks and the decompressed output. Fully
streaming the response would remove the last one too, but that means giving up
Content-Length, so it is left alone.

A failed debug-database swap left databaseTimestamp unadvanced, and the swap
is checked per request - so a corrupt or unreadable debug DB newer than the
primary was reopened on every single request, logging an ERROR each time. The
failing timestamp is now remembered and skipped; a newer copy has a different
timestamp and is retried, which is the case that matters, since replacing the
file is how a developer fixes it.

joinChunks and chunksAsStream are internal top-level functions next to
toDirectByteBuffer so the tests exercise the real code, with three new cases:
a compressed stream decodes identically when split at uneven chunk
boundaries, joinChunks concatenates in order at an exact size, and a lone
chunk comes back without a copy.

- Assert the sqlite_master existence-check query count alongside the
  data query in both dictionary tests, not just the data query -- a
  regression that re-ran only the existence check every request would
  otherwise pass unnoticed.
- Set socket.soTimeout before reading the response in
  sendRawGetRequestAndAwaitClose, so a server that fails to close the
  connection fails the test instead of hanging the JVM indefinitely.

Code review of the dictionary-decode change. One high-severity correctness issue (the dictionary-first/plain-fallback discrimination is not sound), one medium (stale-flag clearing on a failed load), and three low findings, inline below.

Checked and clean: dropping Content-Encoding is safe (the shipped ContentTypes.compression domain is only brotli and none); no data race on the shared dictionary fields since handleClient runs inline in the accept loop; the long-lived direct ByteBuffer outliving each decoder is correct for brotli's non-copying raw-dictionary attach; attachDictionary is called while the decoder is still fresh, so catching only IOException is adequate; chunksAsStream/joinChunks preserve the previous concatenation semantics; and switchToDatabase opens before closing and now clears templateCache/bookshelfTemplateId, fixing a stale-cache bug the old inline swap had.

- loadCompressionDictionary no longer swallows exceptions into "no
  dictionary." It only returns null for a definitive absence (missing
  table, empty table, null/empty blob); an unexpected SQLiteException
  now propagates to the call site, which leaves
  compressionDictionaryStale set so the next request retries instead
  of permanently caching a transient failure as "no dictionary" for
  the rest of the database's lifetime.
- brotli4jNativeForHost() in app/build.gradle.kts no longer throws on
  an unrecognized host. That ran at configuration time, so throwing
  failed every task in the build -- including :app:assembleV8Debug,
  which needs no desktop native at all -- not just the JVM unit-test
  tasks that consume it. Degrades to a logged warning and no test
  native instead.
- Softened the chunked-content comment's memory-savings claim: the
  decompressed output still goes through a comparable
  accumulate-then-copy in decompressBrotli's own readBytes() call, so
  the saving from keeping compressed chunks as a list is real but
  doesn't eliminate that separate transient the way the prior wording
  implied.

The two remaining findings (dictionary-first decode's theoretical
silent-wrong-bytes risk, and the resulting double-decode cost for
dictionary-free rows) need a design discussion, not a quick fix --
see the PR thread reply.

  • brotli4jNativeForHost() no longer throws on an unrecognized host. That ran at configuration time, so it failed every task — including :app:assembleV8Debug, which needs no desktop native at all. Now a logged warning and no test native.
  • Softened the chunked-content comment's memory claim, since decompressBrotli's own readBytes() does a comparable accumulate-then-copy.

Deferred, with reasoning in the threads: the dictionary-first decode's theoretical silent-wrong-bytes risk and the double-decode cost for dictionary-free rows. Both need a design decision rather than a quick patch — the reply on #3804501206 has the stress-test results.

CI is green and stage is merged in.

One reason this one is worth your time before the others: ADFA-5176 stacks on it. That change serves documentation to the WebViews in-process via shouldInterceptRequest, and its shared content source has to carry this PR's dictionary decode — including the fix above, which I've already ported into the extracted code. It can't open as a mergeable PR until this lands. Its base PRs are up in the meantime: #1688 (accept-loop instrumentation, where your nesting comment is addressed — the loop is eight lines now) and #1689 (worker pool).
