The per-request SELECT users WHERE uuid=? in require_role was the
hidden tax behind every authed endpoint — it kept _execute at ~60%
across the profile even after the page caches landed. Even /health
(with its DB and Docker probes cached) was still 52% _execute from
this one query.
- dependencies.py: 10s TTL cache on get_user_by_uuid, well below JWT
expiry. invalidate_user_cache(uuid) is called on password change,
role change, and user delete.
- api_get_config.py: 5s TTL cache on the admin branch's list_users()
(previously fetched every /config call). Invalidated on user
create/update/delete.
- api_change_pass.py + api_manage_users.py: invalidation hooks on
all user-mutating endpoints.
require_role._check previously chained from get_current_user, which
already loaded the user — then looked it up again. Inline the decode +
single user fetch + must_change_password + role check so every
authenticated request costs one SELECT users WHERE uuid=? instead of
two.
- Add `get_repository()` factory function to select DB implementation at runtime via DECNET_DB_TYPE env var
- Extract BaseRepository abstract interface from SQLiteRepository
- Update dependencies to use factory-based repository injection
- Add DECNET_DB_TYPE env var support (defaults to sqlite)
- Refactor models and repository base class for cross-dialect compatibility
