Struct AppState 

pub struct AppState {
    pub watches: RwLock<HashMap<String, WatchContext>>,
}

AppState

Description

The AppState structure represents the in-memory runtime state of the orchestrator.
It manages all active WatchContext instances in a concurrent-safe way using an RwLock<HashMap<String, WatchContext>>.

This state is central to the daemon’s operation: it allows concurrent tasks (e.g., socket requests, watchers) to safely read and modify the currently tracked projects.

---

Fields

• watches: RwLock<HashMap<String, WatchContext>>
  A thread-safe map of project identifiers (id) to their associated WatchContext.

---

Associated Methods

load_from_disk() -> Result<Self>

Loads the state from the persisted watches.json file.

• Reconstructs all WatchContext objects from disk.
• Re-initializes their loggers.
• Returns a fully built AppState.

Example:

let state = AppState::load_from_disk().await?;

---

save_to_disk(&self) -> Result<()>

Serializes the current state into the watches.json file.
Ensures that all current contexts (WatchContext) are persisted.

Example:

state.save_to_disk().await?;

---

init_watch_file() -> Result<()>

Initializes the watches.json file if it does not exist.

• Ensures the parent directory exists.
• Creates an empty WatchRegistry if no registry file is found.

Example:

AppState::init_watch_file().await?;

---

load_watches() -> Result<WatchRegistry>

Loads the contents of watches.json and deserializes it into a WatchRegistry.
This is a low-level helper used internally by other methods.

Example:

let registry = AppState::load_watches().await?;

---

add_watch(ctx: &WatchContext) -> Result<()>

Adds or updates a WatchContext inside the watches.json file.

• If a project with the same project_dir already exists, it is updated.
• Otherwise, the new watch is appended.

Example:

let ctx = WatchContextBuilder::new(...).build().await?;
AppState::add_watch(&ctx).await?;

---

remove_watch_by_id(id: &str) -> Result<()>

Removes a WatchContext from watches.json by its identifier.

Example:

AppState::remove_watch_by_id("project-123").await?;

---

Usage Example

AppState is typically wrapped in an Arc and shared across async tasks.
For instance, in a socket listener:

pub async fn start_socket_listener(state: Arc<AppState>) -> anyhow::Result<()> {
    // state is cloned into each request handler
    let state = Arc::clone(&state);
    // requests are processed concurrently
}

This makes AppState the central shared runtime state for the orchestrator daemon.

---

Notes

• AppState bridges persistent storage (watches.json) with in-memory runtime state.
• It guarantees safe concurrent access to watches via RwLock.
• It is designed to be long-lived and shared across tasks via Arc<AppState>.

Fields

watches: RwLock<HashMap<String, WatchContext>>
