Summary

  • Object > Create > pgTimeTable Chain... on a server is now enabled only when the server has a pgTimeTable Chains collection node, which the backend adds only when timetable.chain exists in the maintenance database and is usable by the current role. The menus are refreshed when that collection is added to the tree, as the server is selected before its children load.
  • The chain endpoints now return a 400 with a clear message in that case, instead of a 500 with relation "timetable.chain" does not exist. The existing check from backend_supported() is shared through has_pgt_chain_access().

Test plan

  • New test_pgt_chain_not_available.py (mocked, plus an unmocked case that runs only when pg_timetable is absent)
  • New Jest spec pgt_chain_menus_spec.js
  • Existing pg_timetable tests in CI (pg_timetable is installed there)

Closes #10694

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • The pgTimeTable Chain creation option is available only when the server is connected and the Chains collection is present in the server tree.
    • Chain creation and listing report when pgTimeTable is unavailable or access is insufficient. If an availability check encounters a server error, the error is displayed instead.
    • Menu availability updates after the server tree refreshes and the Chains collection becomes available.

…ble is not available. pgadmin-org#10694

The create menu on the server was offered even when the maintenance
database has no timetable schema, and saving then failed with a raw
"relation timetable.chain does not exist" error and HTTP 500. The menu is
now enabled only when the server has a pgTimeTable Chains collection node,
which the backend adds only when pg_timetable is usable, and the chain
endpoints now return a clear 400 error in that case instead of a 500.

Walkthrough

The change adds backend checks for pg_timetable Chain schema access and required privileges. It returns distinct errors for query failures and unavailable access. The server-level create menu now depends on connection and collection state.

Changes

Chain availability

Layer / File(s) Summary
Backend access gate
web/pgadmin/browser/server_groups/servers/pg_timetable/__init__.py, web/pgadmin/browser/server_groups/servers/pg_timetable/tests/test_pgt_chain_not_available.py
A shared check verifies the schema, relation, and required privileges. Backend support and decorated views use the check. Query errors return HTTP 500; unavailable access returns HTTP 400. Tests cover these responses.
Server create menu
web/pgadmin/browser/server_groups/servers/pg_timetable/static/js/pgt_chain.js, web/pgadmin/browser/static/js/browser.js, web/regression/javascript/browser/pgt_chain_menus_spec.js
The create menu requires a connected server with a Chains collection. Adding that collection or refreshing a tree node updates menu enablement. Tests cover the enable condition and refresh behavior.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title names the main change: the server-level pgTimeTable Chain create menu is disabled when pg_timetable is unavailable. The changeset matches this. The menu enable logic is in pgt_chain.js, the tree refresh is in browser.js, and the backend check and tests support the same behavior. The title includes an issue number, which is acceptable and does not make it misleading.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue [#10694] requires two coding outcomes. The server menu now requires a connected server and a loaded coll-pgt_chain node. The tree-added handler re-evaluates menus when that node appears. The backend uses has_pgt_chain_access() to check the timetable.chain table and the required schema and table privileges. The endpoint precondition returns HTTP 400 with a clear availability message when the check is false. Query failures remain HTTP 500 with their error. The added Python and Jest tests cover the endpoint and menu conditions.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The changed backend code, menu code, tree refresh, and tests directly support [#10694]. The shared access check prevents the raw missing-relation path. The menu guard prevents the server-level action when the collection is unavailable. No unrelated change is established by the reviewed evidence.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 71.43% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 7 functions across 5 files.

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

- Line 37: Update the access predicate containing has_schema_privilege so schema
USAGE is evaluated as a condition, not merely returned in the EXISTS subquery’s
select list. Check that the timetable schema exists before calling
has_schema_privilege, and treat a missing schema as no access; add coverage for
a role with chain table privileges but no schema USAGE.

@web/pgadmin/browser/server_groups/servers/pg_timetable/static/js/pgt_chain.js:
- Around line 90-98: Update onRefreshTreeNode to call
pgBrowser.enable_disable_menus after the tree refresh completes, so the selected
server’s menu state reflects whether its coll-pgt_chain collection is present;
preserve the existing refresh and loader flow.
