# Architecture Overview

Net Neutrality is a Java 25 Discord bot built on top of [JDA](https://github.com/discord-jda/JDA).
It is packaged as a single fat JAR (via the Maven Shade plugin) whose entry point is
`me.bobert.netneutrality.App`.

## Big picture

Discord sends **events** over the gateway. A single JDA `EventListener`
(`me.bobert.netneutrality.hooks.EventsHandler`) receives every event and turns it into a
**Context** — a high-level abstraction over that event. Each context is then routed to one of three
execution paths:

```
                              ┌──────────────────────────────┐
     Discord Gateway  ───────▶│        EventsHandler         │
        (JDA events)          │  event class → Context factory│
                              └───────────────┬──────────────┘
                                              │ builds a Context

                    ▼                          ▼                           ▼
            CommandContext              TaskContext                (no Context)
                    │                          │                    lambda /
                    ▼                          ▼                    consumer runs
            CommandProcessor            TaskManager.handle()        directly
            .dispatch()                 (lookup task by id)          (e.g. GuildJoin)
                    │                          │
                    ▼                          ▼
             Command.execute()          Task.execute()
```

1. **Command flow** — the context is a `CommandContext`; it is handed to `CommandProcessor` which
   resolves and runs a `Command`. See [commands.md](commands.md).
2. **Task flow** — the context is a `TaskContext`; it is handed to `TaskManager` which looks up a
   `Task` by its **id** and runs it. See [tasks.md](tasks.md).
3. **Lambda flow** — for simple events (e.g. `GuildJoinEvent`, `GuildLeaveEvent`) a consumer runs
   directly and no context is routed onward. See [events.md](events.md).

Around this core are the supporting subsystems: [persistence](persistence.md) (Hibernate + Flyway),
[music](music.md) (a remote Lavalink node), the [web API](web-api.md), and the [threading/scheduling](threading.md)
infrastructure.

The HTTP **server** for the internal API uses the JDK built-in
`com.sun.net.httpserver.HttpServer` (no external framework); see [web-api.md](web-api.md).

## Startup lifecycle

The entry point is `App.main()` followed by the `App()` constructor which calls
`startup()`. Bootstrap is driven by a hand-rolled
[`ApplicationContext`](utilities-and-bootstrap.md#applicationcontext--lifecycle) that owns wired
instances and starts every [`Lifecycle`](utilities-and-bootstrap.md#applicationcontext--lifecycle)
component in ascending priority order.

1. **Print banner / read env** — reads `NETNEUTRALITY_BOT_ENV` (default `dev`) via the early-bootstrap
   `Settings.getInstance()` singleton (the only remaining process-wide settings access point; it is
   also registered into the context as `SettingsProvider` for constructor injection).
2. **Sentry** — if `NETNEUTRALITY_SENTRY_DSN` is set, initialize the Sentry SDK
   (environment, release = `VERSION`, traces sample rate 1.0).
3. **Log levels** — in `dev`, raise JDA and Lavalink client logging to `DEBUG`.
4. `startup()`:
   1. Validate `NETNEUTRALITY_BOT_TOKEN` is present (throws if missing).
   2. `buildContext()` — register domain services and lifecycle adapters (see priorities below).
   3. `context.start()` — start every `Lifecycle` component in ascending priority order.
   4. Register a JVM shutdown hook calling `shutdown()` → `context.stop()`.

### Lifecycle priorities (startup order)

| Priority | Component | What `start()` does |
|---|---|---|
| 10 | `SessionManager` (`SessionProvider`) | Build Hibernate `SessionFactory` + run Flyway migrations. Binds itself into `JpaUtils`. |
| 20 | `ThreadManager` (`ExecutorProvider`) | No-op start (executors are lazy). Bound into `ChannelMessagePurger`. |
| 30 | `CommandManager` (`CommandRegistry`) | Reflectively discover/register `Command` implementations with context-aware constructor injection. |
| 30 | `TaskManagerImpl` (`TaskManager`) | Reflectively load built-in & scheduled tasks (DI) and reload persistable tasks from the DB. |
| 40 | `MusicServiceImpl` (`MusicService`) | Create the shared `LavalinkClient`, register the node and subscribe to its events. |
| 55 | `ScheduledTaskManager` | No-op start (tasks are scheduled by `TaskManager` during its own start). |
| 60 | JDA adapter | Build `JDA` with gateway intents and await ready. |
| 65 | Post-JDA adapter | Register slash commands, attach `EventsHandler` (injected providers), set presence. |
| 70 | `WebApi` | Start the internal HTTP server (`NETNEUTRALITY_API_PORT`, default 9000). |

Commands and tasks that need shared services declare them as constructor parameters
(`MusicService`, `TaskManager`, `GuildServiceProvider`, `SettingsProvider`, `CommandRegistry`, …).
`ReflectionHelper` picks the richest public constructor whose parameter types all resolve from the
context (falling back to a no-arg constructor when none match).

### Gateway intents

`initJDA()` enables: `GUILD_MEMBERS`, `GUILD_MESSAGE_REACTIONS`, `GUILD_VOICE_STATES`,
`MESSAGE_CONTENT`. It also installs `new JDAVoiceUpdateListener(music.getClient())` as the voice
dispatch interceptor, so voice server/state updates are forwarded to Lavalink instead of JDA's own
audio stack. DAVE (end-to-end encrypted voice) is handled by the node, which is why the bot no
longer ships native audio encoders.

## Shutdown lifecycle

`App.shutdown()` (invoked by the JVM shutdown hook, `ShutdownCommand`, or the HTTP
`/actions/shutdown` endpoint) calls `context.stop()`, which stops every registered `Lifecycle`
component in the **exact reverse** of start order. Failures in one component are logged and do not
block the others. Effectively this means:

1. `WebApi.stop()` — stop the HTTP server and its executor.
2. Post-JDA adapter — no-op.
3. JDA adapter — `jda.shutdown()`.
4. `ScheduledTaskManager.stop()` — cancel all scheduled tasks.
5. `MusicServiceImpl.stop()` — dispose the event subscriptions, destroy the players and close the Lavalink client.
6. `CommandManager` / `TaskManagerImpl` — no-op stop today.
7. `ThreadManager.stop()` — shut down the shared executors.
8. `SessionManager.stop()` — release the Hibernate registry / connection pool.

## Configuration & build

- **Config sources** — `Settings` loads `bot.properties` and overlays environment variables (env
  vars win). See [utilities-and-bootstrap.md](utilities-and-bootstrap.md#settings). An example file
  lives at `bot.properties.example`.
- **Build** — `./mvnw package` produces `target/netneutrality.jar` (Shade fat JAR, main class
  `me.bobert.netneutrality.App`). Checkstyle (`checkstyle.xml`) runs in the `test` phase
  and fails the build on violations.
- **Run** — the preferred method is Docker Compose (`docker compose build && docker compose up -d`),
  which also provisions the MariaDB database. See `README.md` and `docker-compose.yml`.
