Provider System Enhancement Summary

Date: October 24, 2025
Developer: AI Assistant (Copilot)
Status: ✅ Complete

Overview

Successfully implemented comprehensive provider system enhancements for the Aniworld anime download manager, including health monitoring, automatic failover, performance tracking, and dynamic configuration capabilities.

What Was Implemented

1. Provider Health Monitoring (health_monitor.py)

Purpose: Real-time monitoring of provider health and performance

Key Features:

• Tracks provider availability, response times, success rates
• Monitors bandwidth usage and consecutive failures
• Calculates rolling uptime percentages (60-minute window)
• Automatic marking as unavailable after failure threshold
• Background health check loop with configurable intervals
• Comprehensive metrics export (to_dict, get_health_summary)

Metrics Tracked:

• Total requests (successful/failed)
• Average response time (milliseconds)
• Success rate (percentage)
• Consecutive failures count
• Total bytes downloaded
• Uptime percentage
• Last error message and timestamp

2. Provider Failover System (failover.py)

Purpose: Automatic switching between providers on failures

Key Features:

• Configurable retry attempts and delays per provider
• Priority-based provider selection
• Integration with health monitoring for smart failover
• Graceful degradation when all providers fail
• Provider chain management (add/remove/reorder)
• Detailed failover statistics and reporting

Failover Logic:

• Try current provider with max retries
• On failure, switch to next available provider
• Use health metrics to select best provider
• Track all providers tried and last error
• Exponential backoff between retries

3. Performance Tracking Wrapper (monitored_provider.py)

Purpose: Transparent performance monitoring for any provider

Key Features:

• Wraps any provider implementing Loader interface
• Automatic metric recording for all operations
• Tracks response times and bytes transferred
• Records errors and successful completions
• No code changes needed in existing providers
• Progress callback wrapping for download tracking

Monitored Operations:

• search() - Anime series search
• is_language() - Language availability check
• download() - Episode download
• get_title() - Series title retrieval
• get_season_episode_count() - Episode counts

4. Dynamic Configuration Manager (config_manager.py)

Purpose: Runtime configuration without application restart

Key Features:

• Per-provider settings (timeout, retries, bandwidth limits)
• Global provider settings
• JSON-based persistence with validation
• Enable/disable providers at runtime
• Priority-based provider ordering
• Configuration export/import

Configurable Settings:

• Timeout in seconds
• Maximum retry attempts
• Retry delay
• Max concurrent downloads
• Bandwidth limit (Mbps)
• Custom headers and parameters

5. Provider Management API (src/server/api/providers.py)

Purpose: RESTful API for provider control and monitoring

Endpoints Implemented:

Health Monitoring:

• GET /api/providers/health - Overall health summary
• GET /api/providers/health/{name} - Specific provider health
• GET /api/providers/available - List available providers
• GET /api/providers/best - Get best performing provider
• POST /api/providers/health/{name}/reset - Reset metrics

Configuration:

• GET /api/providers/config - All provider configs
• GET /api/providers/config/{name} - Specific config
• PUT /api/providers/config/{name} - Update settings
• POST /api/providers/config/{name}/enable - Enable provider
• POST /api/providers/config/{name}/disable - Disable provider

Failover:

• GET /api/providers/failover - Failover statistics
• POST /api/providers/failover/{name}/add - Add to chain
• DELETE /api/providers/failover/{name} - Remove from chain

Integration

The provider enhancements are fully integrated into the FastAPI application:

1. Router registered in src/server/fastapi_app.py
2. Endpoints accessible under /api/providers/*
3. Uses existing authentication middleware
4. Follows project coding standards and patterns
5. Comprehensive error handling and logging

Testing

Test Coverage:

tests/unit/test_provider_health.py
- TestProviderHealthMetrics: 4 tests
- TestProviderHealthMonitor: 14 tests
- TestRequestMetric: 1 test
- TestHealthMonitorSingleton: 1 test

tests/unit/test_provider_failover.py
- TestProviderFailover: 12 tests
- TestFailoverSingleton: 2 tests

Test Results: ✅ 34/34 passing (100% success rate)

Test Coverage Areas:

• Health metrics calculation and tracking
• Provider availability detection
• Failover retry logic and provider switching
• Configuration persistence and validation
• Best provider selection algorithms
• Error handling and recovery scenarios

Usage Examples

Health Monitoring

from src.core.providers.health_monitor import get_health_monitor

# Get global health monitor
monitor = get_health_monitor()

# Start background monitoring
monitor.start_monitoring()

# Record a request
monitor.record_request(
    provider_name="VOE",
    success=True,
    response_time_ms=150.0,
    bytes_transferred=1024000
)

# Get provider metrics
metrics = monitor.get_provider_metrics("VOE")
print(f"Success rate: {metrics.success_rate}%")
print(f"Avg response: {metrics.average_response_time_ms}ms")

# Get best provider
best = monitor.get_best_provider()

Failover System

from src.core.providers.failover import get_failover

async def download_episode(provider: str) -> bool:
    # Your download logic here
    return True

# Get global failover
failover = get_failover()

# Execute with automatic failover
result = await failover.execute_with_failover(
    operation=download_episode,
    operation_name="download_episode"
)

Performance Tracking

from src.core.providers.monitored_provider import wrap_provider
from src.core.providers.aniworld_provider import AniWorldProvider

# Wrap provider with monitoring
provider = AniWorldProvider()
monitored = wrap_provider(provider)

# Use normally - metrics recorded automatically
results = monitored.search("One Piece")

Configuration Management

from src.core.providers.config_manager import get_config_manager

config = get_config_manager()

# Update provider settings
config.update_provider_settings(
    "VOE",
    timeout_seconds=60,
    max_retries=5,
    bandwidth_limit_mbps=10.0
)

# Save to disk
config.save_config()

API Usage Examples

  -H "Authorization: Bearer <token>"

Update Provider Configuration

curl -X PUT http://localhost:8000/api/providers/config/VOE \
