# Migrate API Version

Orchestrate comprehensive API version migrations with automated compatibility layers, breaking change detection, and zero-downtime deployment strategies. This command manages the complete lifecycle of API evolution from initial analysis through deployment and deprecation.

## Design Decisions

**Architecture Approach:**
- Version routing at API gateway level for clean separation
- Adapter pattern for backward compatibility transformations
- Feature flags for gradual rollout control
- Automated test generation across all supported versions

**Alternatives Considered:**
- Hard cutover migration (rejected: high risk, no rollback)
- Separate API endpoints per version (rejected: operational complexity)
- GraphQL federation (chosen for microservices architectures)
- BFF pattern for client-specific migrations

## When to Use

**USE when:**
- Introducing breaking changes to API contracts
- Deprecating legacy endpoints with controlled timelines
- Migrating between API paradigms (REST to GraphQL)
- Evolving data models with backward incompatible changes
- Implementing new authentication mechanisms
- Consolidating multiple API versions

**DON'T USE when:**
- Adding backward-compatible endpoints (use versioned routes)
- Making internal refactoring without contract changes
- Deploying hotfixes or security patches
- Changes affect only implementation, not interface

## Prerequisites

**Required:**
- Complete OpenAPI/GraphQL schema for both versions
- Comprehensive API test suite with >80% coverage
- Version control with tagged releases
- Deployment pipeline with rollback capability
- API gateway with routing rules support
- Monitoring and alerting infrastructure

**Recommended:**
- Consumer registry with contact information
- Deprecation policy documented and communicated
- Traffic analysis showing endpoint usage patterns
- Backward compatibility test matrix
- Canary deployment environment

## Migration Process

**Step 1: Analysis and Impact Assessment**
- Scan API schemas to detect breaking changes
- Analyze usage patterns from API logs
- Identify affected consumers and endpoints
- Calculate complexity score for migration effort
- Generate compatibility matrix between versions

**Step 2: Compatibility Layer Generation**
- Create adapter functions for data transformation
- Generate request/response mappers automatically
- Build version-specific validation schemas
- Implement fallback logic for missing fields
- Create deprecation warning middleware

**Step 3: Migration Script Creation**
- Generate database migration scripts for schema changes
- Create data backfill scripts for new required fields
- Build rollback procedures for each migration step
- Generate test fixtures for both API versions
- Create automated smoke tests for critical paths

**Step 4: Routing and Deployment Configuration**
- Configure API gateway version routing rules
- Set up feature flags for gradual rollout
- Implement traffic splitting for canary deployment
- Configure monitoring dashboards for version metrics
- Set up deprecation warning headers and logs

**Step 5: Validation and Monitoring**
- Execute automated test suite across all versions
- Verify backward compatibility with consumer tests
- Monitor error rates and performance metrics
- Track adoption rates for new version
- Schedule deprecation timeline communications

## Code Examples

### Example 1: REST API v1 to v2 Migration with Breaking Changes

```javascript
// API v1 → v2 Migration: User endpoint restructure
// BREAKING: Flattened user object to nested structure

// Source: /api/v1/users/{id}
{
  "id": 123,
  "name": "John Doe",
  "email": "john@example.com",
  "street": "123 Main St",
  "city": "San Francisco",
  "state": "CA",
  "zip": "94105"
}

// Target: /api/v2/users/{id}
{
  "id": 123,
  "name": "John Doe",
  "email": "john@example.com",
  "address": {
    "street": "123 Main St",
    "city": "San Francisco",
    "state": "CA",
    "postalCode": "94105"
  },
  "metadata": {
    "createdAt": "2024-01-15T10:30:00Z",
    "version": "v2"
  }
}

// Generated Compatibility Adapter
class UserV1ToV2Adapter {
  transform(v1Response) {
    return {
      id: v1Response.id,
      name: v1Response.name,
      email: v1Response.email,
      address: {
        street: v1Response.street,
        city: v1Response.city,
        state: v1Response.state,
        postalCode: v1Response.zip // Field renamed
      },
      metadata: {
        createdAt: v1Response.created_at || new Date().toISOString(),
        version: "v2"
      }
    };
  }

  reverseTransform(v2Response) {
    // For backward compatibility when v1 clients hit v2
    return {
      id: v2Response.id,
      name: v2Response.name,
      email: v2Response.email,
      street: v2Response.address?.street || "",
      city: v2Response.address?.city || "",
      state: v2Response.address?.state || "",
      zip: v2Response.address?.postalCode || ""
    };
  }
}

// API Gateway Routing Configuration
const routingRules = {
  "/api/v1/users/:id": {
    target: "/api/v2/users/:id",
    adapter: "UserV1ToV2Adapter",
    deprecationWarning: {
      header: "Deprecation",
      value: "API v1 will be sunset on 2024-12-31. Migrate to v2.",
      link: "https://docs.example.com/api-migration"
    }
  }
};

// Migration Script: Database Schema Evolution
// 001_restructure_user_addresses.sql
BEGIN;

-- Create new address table for normalized structure
CREATE TABLE user_addresses (
  id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
  user_id INTEGER REFERENCES users(id),
  street VARCHAR(255),
  city VARCHAR(100),
  state VARCHAR(2),
  postal_code VARCHAR(10),
  created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT NOW()
);

-- Migrate existing flat data to nested structure

-- Deprecate old columns (don't drop yet for rollback safety)
ALTER TABLE users
  ALTER COLUMN street DROP NOT NULL,
  ALTER COLUMN city DROP NOT NULL,

```

### Example 2: GraphQL Schema Evolution

```graphql
# Schema v1 (Deprecated)
type User {
  id: ID!
  username: String!  # DEPRECATED: Replaced by email
  email: String
  fullName: String
}

type Query {
  user(id: ID!): User
  users: [User!]!
}

# Schema v2 (Current)
type Address {
  street: String!
  city: String!
  state: String!
  postalCode: String!
  country: String!
}

type User {
  id: ID!
  email: String!  # Now required, primary identifier
  username: String @deprecated(reason: "Use email instead. Removed in v3.")
  profile: UserProfile!
  address: Address
}

type UserProfile {
  firstName: String!
  lastName: String!
  displayName: String!
  avatar: String
}

type Query {
  user(id: ID, email: String): User  # Multiple lookup options
  users(filter: UserFilter): [User!]!
}

input UserFilter {
  email: String
  city: String
  state: String
}

# Schema v3 (Planned)
type User {
  id: ID!
  email: String!
  profile: UserProfile!
  addresses: [Address!]!  # Now supports multiple addresses
}

# Migration Resolver Implementation
const resolvers = {
  Query: {
    user: async (_, args, context) => {
      const version = context.apiVersion;

      if (version === 'v1') {
        // Legacy lookup by username

          fullName: `${user.firstName} ${user.lastName}`
        };
      } else {
        // Modern lookup by email or ID
        const user = await db.users.findOne({
          where: args.email ? { email: args.email } : { id: args.id }
        });
        return user;
      }
    }
  },

  User: {
    // Compatibility field resolver for deprecated username
    username: (user, args, context) => {
      if (context.apiVersion === 'v1') {
        return user.username;
      }
      // Add deprecation warning to response headers
      context.res.set('Deprecation', 'username field is deprecated. Use email.');
      return user.username || user.email.split('@')[0];
    },

    // Transform flat structure to nested for v2+
    profile: (user) => ({
      firstName: user.firstName || user.fullName?.split(' ')[0],
      lastName: user.lastName || user.fullName?.split(' ')[1],
      displayName: user.fullName,
      avatar: user.avatar
    })
  }
};

// Automated Schema Compatibility Tests
describe('GraphQL Schema Migration Tests', () => {
  test('v1 clients can still query with username', async () => {
    const query = `query { user(id: "johndoe") { username email } }`;
    const result = await executeQuery(query, { apiVersion: 'v1' });
    expect(result.data.user.username).toBe('johndoe');
  });

    const result = await executeQuery(query, { apiVersion: 'v2' });
    expect(result.data.user.profile.firstName).toBe('John');
  });

  test('deprecated fields trigger warning headers', async () => {
    const query = `query { user(id: "123") { username } }`;
    const { response } = await executeQueryWithHeaders(query, { apiVersion: 'v2' });
    expect(response.headers.get('Deprecation')).toContain('username field is deprecated');
  });
});
```

## Configuration Options

**Basic Usage:**
```bash
/migrate-api \
  --source=v1 \
  --target=v2 \
  --api-spec=openapi.yaml \
  --consumers=consumer-registry.json
```

**Available Options:**

`--strategy <type>` - Migration deployment strategy
- `canary` - Gradual traffic shifting (default, safest)
- `blue-green` - Instant switchover with rollback capability
- `rolling` - Progressive deployment across instances
- `feature-flag` - Application-controlled version selection
- `parallel-run` - Run both versions, compare results

`--compatibility-mode <mode>` - Backward compatibility approach
- `adapter` - Transform requests/responses between versions (default)
- `proxy` - Route old endpoints to new implementation
- `shim` - Minimal compatibility layer, consumers must adapt
- `none` - No compatibility, hard cutover (dangerous)

`--deprecation-period <duration>` - Support window for old version
- `3months` - Short deprecation (minor changes)
- `6months` - Standard deprecation (default)
- `12months` - Extended support (major changes)
- `custom:YYYY-MM-DD` - Specific sunset date

`--breaking-changes-policy <policy>` - How to handle breaking changes
- `require-adapters` - Force compatibility layer generation
- `warn-consumers` - Send notifications, allow migration time
- `block-deployment` - Prevent deploy until consumers updated
- `document-only` - Just update documentation

`--traffic-split <percentage>` - Initial new version traffic
- Default: `0` (dark launch)
- Range: 0-100
- Example: `10` for 10% canary deployment

`--rollback-threshold <percentage>` - Error rate trigger for auto-rollback
- Default: `5` (5% error rate)
- Range: 1-50
- Example: `2` for strict quality requirements

`--test-coverage-required <percentage>` - Minimum test coverage before deploy
- Default: `80`
- Range: 0-100
- Blocks deployment if coverage below threshold

`--generate-migration-guide` - Create consumer migration documentation
- Generates markdown guide with code examples
- Includes breaking change summaries
- Provides timeline and support contacts

`--dry-run` - Simulate migration without making changes
- Analyze breaking changes
- Generate compatibility report
- Estimate migration effort
- No actual deployment

## Error Handling

**Common Errors and Solutions:**

**Error: Breaking changes detected without compatibility layer**
```
ERROR: 15 breaking changes detected in target API version
- Removed field: User.username (affects 12 endpoints)
- Changed type: Order.total (string → number)
- Renamed endpoint: /users/search → /users/find

Solution: Either:
1. Add --compatibility-mode=adapter to generate transformers
2. Create manual adapters in adapters/ directory
3. Use --breaking-changes-policy=warn-consumers for grace period
```

**Error: Consumer test failures in compatibility mode**
```
ERROR: 3 consumer integration tests failed with v2 adapter
- AcmeApp: Expected username field, received null
- BetaCorp: Response schema validation failed
- GammaInc: Authentication token format mismatch

Solution:
1. Review consumer test failures: npm run test:consumers
2. Update adapters to handle edge cases
3. Contact affected consumers for migration coordination
4. Use --traffic-split=0 for dark launch until resolved
```

**Error: Database migration rollback required**
```
ERROR: Migration script 003_add_foreign_keys.sql failed
Constraint violation: user_addresses.user_id references missing users

Solution:
1. Execute rollback: psql -f 003_rollback.sql
2. Fix data inconsistencies: npm run data:cleanup
3. Re-run migration with --validate-data flag
4. Check migration logs: tail -f logs/migration.log
```

**Error: Traffic spike indicating rollback needed**
```
WARNING: v1 traffic increased from 10% to 45% in 5 minutes
Possible rollback from consumers due to v2 issues

Solution:
1. Check v2 error rates: /metrics/api/v2/errors
2. Review recent v2 deployment logs
3. Pause traffic shift: kubectl patch deployment api-gateway --type=json -p='[{"op":"replace","path":"/spec/template/spec/containers/0/env/1/value","value":"10"}]'
4. Investigate root cause before continuing rollout
```

**Error: Incompatible schema versions in distributed system**
```
ERROR: Service A running v2 schema, Service B still on v1
Message deserialization failed: unknown field 'profile'

Solution:
1. Implement schema registry: npm install @kafkajs/schema-registry
2. Use forward-compatible schemas with optional fields
3. Deploy with version negotiation: --enable-version-negotiation
4. Coordinate deployment order across services
```

## Best Practices

**DO:**
- Start with comprehensive API usage analysis before planning migration
- Generate automated compatibility tests for all breaking changes
- Implement feature flags for granular control over version activation
- Use semantic versioning and clearly communicate breaking changes
- Monitor error rates and latency separately for each API version
- Maintain detailed migration documentation with timelines
- Create rollback procedures and test them before deployment
- Send deprecation warnings months before sunset dates
- Provide sandbox environments for consumers to test migrations
- Use API gateways for centralized version routing and monitoring

**DON'T:**
- Deploy breaking changes without backward compatibility period
- Remove deprecated endpoints immediately after new version launch
- Skip comprehensive testing of compatibility layers under load
- Assume all consumers will migrate quickly (expect stragglers)
- Make multiple major version jumps simultaneously
- Ignore consumer feedback during migration planning
- Deploy migrations during peak traffic periods
- Use hard deadlines without grace period extensions
- Forget to version your database schema along with API
- Mix multiple unrelated breaking changes in single version

**TIPS:**
- Use OpenAPI diff tools to automatically detect breaking changes
- Implement consumer registry to track who uses which endpoints
- Add X-API-Version header to all responses for debugging
- Create automated alerts for unexpected version usage patterns
- Use GraphQL deprecation directives for gradual field removal

## Performance Considerations

**Migration Performance Impact:**
- Compatibility adapters add 5-20ms latency per request
- Dual-write patterns during migration can double database load
- Traffic splitting requires load balancer state management
- Monitoring overhead increases with multiple active versions

**Optimization Strategies:**
- Cache adapter transformation results for identical requests
- Use asynchronous migration for non-critical data changes
- Implement read-through caches for backward compatibility lookups
- Batch database migrations during low-traffic windows
- Pre-warm caches before traffic switch to new version
- Use connection pooling to handle parallel version load
- Consider edge caching for frequently accessed compatibility transformations

**Capacity Planning:**
- Expect 20-30% overhead during dual-version support period
- Plan for 2x database capacity during migration window
- Allocate extra API gateway resources for routing logic
- Monitor memory usage in compatibility layer services
- Scale horizontally rather than vertically for version isolation

## Security Considerations

**Version Transition Security:**
- Audit authentication mechanisms for compatibility breaks
- Verify authorization rules apply consistently across versions
- Scan for security vulnerabilities in compatibility adapters
- Review CORS policies for new version endpoints
- Update API keys and tokens if authentication changes
- Test rate limiting separately per API version
- Ensure TLS/SSL certificates cover new version domains
- Validate input sanitization in transformation layers
- Check for data leakage in error messages across versions
- Review audit logging captures version information

**Security Checklist:**
- [ ] Authentication backward compatible or migration path clear
- [ ] Authorization policies tested with both version payloads
- [ ] Sensitive data transformations don't expose information
- [ ] Rate limiting prevents abuse of compatibility layers
- [ ] API keys revocation works across all versions
- [ ] Security headers consistent across versions
- [ ] OWASP Top 10 validated for new endpoints
- [ ] Penetration testing completed for v2 before public launch

## Troubleshooting Guide

**Issue: Consumers report intermittent failures after migration**
- Check load balancer health checks for version endpoints
- Verify DNS propagation completed for new version domains
- Review session affinity settings (sticky sessions may cause issues)
- Confirm database connection pools sized for dual version load
- Check for race conditions in data migration scripts

**Issue: Adapter performance degrading over time**
- Monitor adapter service memory for leaks
- Check for unbounded cache growth in transformation layer
- Review database query performance for compatibility lookups
- Consider pre-computing common transformations
- Profile adapter code for inefficient object mapping

**Issue: Version metrics not appearing in dashboard**
- Verify X-API-Version header added to all responses
- Check logging configuration captures version metadata
- Confirm monitoring agents updated to track new version
- Review metric aggregation rules in monitoring system
- Ensure API gateway properly tags requests by version

**Issue: Rollback triggered unexpectedly**
- Review error rate thresholds (may be too sensitive)
- Check if external service outages affected v2 only
- Verify rollback threshold uses appropriate time windows
- Investigate false positives in health checks
- Review deployment timing vs. traffic pattern changes
