Environment Variables (Docker/container environments) + ↓ +2. config.ini file (traditional deployments) + ↓ +3. Validation layer (startup checks) + ↓ +4. Runtime constants +``` + +**Validation Checks:** +- Required sections and keys present +- API key prefix validation (`ptlc_` and `ptla_`) +- Guild ID format (valid integer) +- URL format (includes protocol) +- Raises `ConfigValidationError` on failure + +### Persistent Storage + +#### Embed Locations (`embed/embed_locations.json`) +```json +{ + "server_abc123": { + "channel_id": "123456789", + "message_id": "987654321" + } +} +``` + +**Operations:** +- **Load**: On bot startup +- **Save**: After each embed create/delete +- **Cleanup**: Automatic on missing messages + +#### Server State Tracking (in-memory) +```python +{ + "server_abc123": ( + "running", # Current state + 45.5, # Last CPU usage + 1699123456.0 # Last force update timestamp + ) +} +``` + +**Purpose:** +- Change detection for smart updates +- Reduces unnecessary Discord API calls +- Tracks force update intervals + +### Async Architecture + +The bot is built on asyncio for concurrent operations: + +```python +# Concurrent API requests +async with asyncio.gather(*[ + api.get_server_resources(id1), + api.get_server_resources(id2), + api.get_server_resources(id3) +]): + # Process results +``` + +**Benefits:** +- Non-blocking I/O operations +- Concurrent server status checks +- Responsive to Discord interactions +- Efficient resource utilization + +**Synchronization:** +- `asyncio.Lock()` for API rate limiting +- `asyncio.Lock()` for embed update cycles +- No blocking operations in event loop + +### Error Handling Strategy + +**Levels:** +1. **Graceful Degradation**: Continue operating with reduced functionality +2. **Automatic Retry**: Retry failed operations with backoff +3. **User Notification**: Inform users of transient errors +4. **Logging**: Comprehensive error logging for debugging +5. **Crash Prevention**: Catch and handle all exceptions + +**Example:** +```python +try: + resources = await api.get_server_resources(server_id) +except Exception as e: + logger.error(f"Failed to fetch resources: {e}") + # Use cached data or display offline state + return {'attributes': {'current_state': 'offline'}} +``` + +### Performance Optimizations + +#### 1. Smart Update Logic +Only updates embeds when necessary: +- Power state changes (always) +- Significant CPU changes (>50% delta) +- Force update interval (every 10 minutes) +- Initial server checks + +**Impact**: ~90% reduction in Discord API calls + +#### 2. FIFO Metric Queues +`collections.deque(maxlen=6)` automatically rotates old data: +- O(1) append operations +- Automatic memory management +- No manual cleanup needed + +#### 3. Request Locking +Prevents concurrent API access: +```python +async with self.lock: + # Only one request at a time + response = await self.session.request(...) +``` + +**Benefits**: +- Avoids rate limits +- Prevents race conditions +- Ensures ordered operations + +#### 4. Caching Strategy +- Server list cached between updates +- State tracking prevents redundant checks +- Embed locations loaded once at startup \ No newline at end of file
