MaintainX Upgrade & Migration

Current State

!npm list 2>/dev/null | head -20

Overview

Handle MaintainX API version upgrades, deprecations, and breaking changes with a safe, incremental migration strategy.

Prerequisites

• Existing MaintainX integration
• Test environment with separate API key
• Version control (git) for all integration code

Instructions

Step 1: Audit Current API Usage

// scripts/audit-api-usage.ts
// Scan your codebase for all MaintainX API calls

import { readFileSync, readdirSync, statSync } from 'fs';
import { join } from 'path';

function findApiCalls(dir: string): Array<{ file: string; line: number; endpoint: string }> {
  const results: Array<{ file: string; line: number; endpoint: string }> = [];

  function scan(d: string) {
    for (const entry of readdirSync(d)) {
      const full = join(d, entry);
      if (statSync(full).isDirectory()) {
        if (!entry.startsWith('.') && entry !== 'node_modules') scan(full);
      } else if (full.endsWith('.ts') || full.endsWith('.js')) {
        const content = readFileSync(full, 'utf-8');
        const lines = content.split('\n');
        for (let i = 0; i < lines.length; i++) {
          // Match API endpoint patterns
          const match = lines[i].match(/'"`[^'"`]*)/);
          if (match) {
            results.push({ file: full, line: i + 1, endpoint: match[1] });
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }

  scan(dir);
  return results;
}

const calls = findApiCalls('./src');
console.log('=== MaintainX API Usage Audit ===');
console.log(`Found ${calls.length} API calls:\n`);

// Group by endpoint
const grouped = new Map<string, typeof calls>();
for (const call of calls) {
  const base = call.endpoint.split('?')[0].replace(/\/\d+/, '/:id');
  const existing = grouped.get(base) || [];
  existing.push(call);
  grouped.set(base, existing);
}

for (const [endpoint, usages] of grouped) {
  console.log(`${endpoint} (${usages.length} calls):`);
  for (const u of usages) {
    console.log(`  ${u.file}:${u.line}`);
  }
}

Step 2: Version Compatibility Layer

// src/migration/compat.ts

type ApiVersion = 'v1' | 'v2';

interface VersionAdapter {
  baseUrl: string;
  transformRequest(endpoint: string, data: any): { endpoint: string; data: any };
  transformResponse(endpoint: string, data: any): any;
}

const adapters: Record<ApiVersion, VersionAdapter> = {
  v1: {
    baseUrl: 'https://api.getmaintainx.com/v1',
    transformRequest: (endpoint, data) => ({ endpoint, data }),
    transformResponse: (endpoint, data) => data,
  },
  v2: {
    baseUrl: 'https://api.getmaintainx.com/v2',
    transformRequest: (endpoint, data) => {
      // Handle breaking changes in v2
      if (endpoint.startsWith('/workorders') && data) {
        // Example: v2 renamed 'assignees' to 'assignedTo'
        if (data.assignees) {
          data.assignedTo = data.assignees;
          delete data.assignees;
        }
      }
      return { endpoint, data };
    },
    transformResponse: (endpoint, data) => {
      // Normalize v2 response to v1 shape
      if (data.assignedTo) {
        data.assignees = data.assignedTo;
      }
      return data;
    },
  },
};

class VersionedClient {
  private adapter: VersionAdapter;

  constructor(version: ApiVersion = 'v1') {
    this.adapter = adapters[version];
  }

  async request(method: string, endpoint: string, data?: any) {
    const { endpoint: ep, data: d } = this.adapter.transformRequest(endpoint, data);
    const response = await fetch(`${this.adapter.baseUrl}${ep}`, {
      method,
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.MAINTAINX_API_KEY}`,
        'Content-Type': 'application/json',
      },
      body: d ? JSON.stringify(d) : undefined,
    });
    const result = await response.json();
    return this.adapter.transformResponse(ep, result);
  }
}

Step 3: Feature Flag Migration

// src/migration/feature-flags.ts

const MIGRATION_FLAGS: Record<string, boolean> = {
  USE_V2_WORKORDERS: false,   // Set to true when ready to switch
  USE_V2_ASSETS: false,
  USE_V2_PAGINATION: false,   // v2 might use offset instead of cursor
};

function getApiVersion(endpoint: string): ApiVersion {
  if (endpoint.startsWith('/workorders') && MIGRATION_FLAGS.USE_V2_WORKORDERS) return 'v2';
  if (endpoint.startsWith('/assets') && MIGRATION_FLAGS.USE_V2_ASSETS) return 'v2';
  return 'v1';
}

// Gradually roll out v2 per-endpoint
async function migratedRequest(method: string, endpoint: string, data?: any) {
  const version = getApiVersion(endpoint);
  const client = new VersionedClient(version);
  return client.request(method, endpoint, data);
}

Step 4: Migration Tests

// tests/migration.test.ts
import { describe, it, expect } from 'vitest';

describe('API Version Migration', () => {
  it('v1 and v2 return equivalent work order data', async () => {
    const v1Client = new VersionedClient('v1');
    const v2Client = new VersionedClient('v2');

    const v1Result = await v1Client.request('GET', '/workorders?limit=5');
    const v2Result = await v2Client.request('GET', '/workorders?limit=5');

    // After adapter normalization, shapes should match
    expect(v1Result.workOrders.length).toBe(v2Result.workOrders.length);
    expect(v1Result.workOrders[0]).toHaveProperty('id');
    expect(v1Result.workOrders[0]).toHaveProperty('title');
    expect(v1Result.workOrders[0]).toHaveProperty('status');
  });

  it('compatibility adapter transforms assignees correctly', () => {
    const adapter = adapters.v2;
    const { data } = adapter.transformRequest('/workorders', {
      title: 'Test',
      assignees: [{ type: 'USER', id: 1 }],
    });
    expect(data.assignedTo).toBeDefined();
    expect(data.assignees).toBeUndefined();
  });
});

Step 5: Rollback Procedure

#!/bin/bash
# rollback-api-version.sh
# Revert to v1 API if v2 migration causes issues

echo "=== MaintainX API Version Rollback ==="
echo "1. Set all feature flags to false:"
echo '   MIGRATION_FLAGS.USE_V2_WORKORDERS = false'
echo '   MIGRATION_FLAGS.USE_V2_ASSETS = false'
echo ""
echo "2. Redeploy with v1 configuration:"
echo "   git revert HEAD --no-edit && git push"
echo ""
echo "3. Verify v1 endpoints are working:"
echo '   curl -s https://api.getmaintainx.com/v1/workorders?limit=1 \'
echo '     -H "Authorization: Bearer $MAINTAINX_API_KEY" | jq .status'
echo ""
echo "4. Monitor error rates for 30 minutes"
echo "5. Document issues for v2 retry"

Output

• API usage audit report listing all endpoints and call sites
• Version compatibility layer with request/response adapters
• Feature flag system for incremental per-endpoint migration
• Migration tests verifying v1/v2 equivalence
• Rollback procedure for safe revert

Error Handling

Issue	Cause	Solution
404 on v2 endpoint	Endpoint path changed	Update adapter mappings
Field missing in v2 response	Breaking schema change	Add field mapping in transformResponse
Mixed v1/v2 data in DB	Partial migration state	Run reconciliation to normalize
Feature flag stuck	Config not reloaded	Restart service or use dynamic config

Examples

Dual-write during migration (write to both v1 and v2):

async function dualWrite(endpoint: string, data: any) {
  const v1 = new VersionedClient('v1');
  const v2 = new VersionedClient('v2');

  const v1Result = await v1.request('POST', endpoint, data);

  try {
    await v2.request('POST', endpoint, data);
  } catch (err) {
    console.warn('v2 write failed (non-blocking):', err);
    // Log for investigation, don't fail the operation
  }

  return v1Result; // v1 is source of truth during migration
}
