Remove dead 23505 checks on single-GID primary keys (oauth2_consent, risk_assessment, risk_assessment_scenario, risk_assessment_scope). Add missing constraints to membership_profile and statement_of_applicability. Document composite-PK vs GID-PK rule in cursor rules and contrib guide. Signed-off-by: Émile Ré <emile@probo.com>

# PostgreSQL constraint error mapping
|
|
|
|
When mapping `*pgconn.PgError` to sentinel errors, always check **both** `pgErr.Code` and `pgErr.ConstraintName`. A table may have multiple unique constraints; a code-only check silently maps unrelated violations to the wrong sentinel.
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
// GOOD — checks both code and constraint name
|
|
if pgErr, ok := errors.AsType[*pgconn.PgError](err); ok {
|
|
if pgErr.Code == "23505" && pgErr.ConstraintName == "controls_framework_ref_unique" {
|
|
return ErrResourceAlreadyExists
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// GOOD — multiple constraints on the same table
|
|
if pgErr, ok := errors.AsType[*pgconn.PgError](err); ok {
|
|
if pgErr.Code == "23505" {
|
|
switch pgErr.ConstraintName {
|
|
case "document_versions_document_id_major_minor_key",
|
|
"document_one_active_version_idx":
|
|
return ErrResourceAlreadyExists
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// BAD — code-only check
|
|
if pgErr, ok := errors.AsType[*pgconn.PgError](err); ok {
|
|
if pgErr.Code == "23505" {
|
|
return ErrResourceAlreadyExists
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This applies to all PostgreSQL error codes mapped to sentinel errors:
|
|
- `"23505"` (unique violation) → `ErrResourceAlreadyExists`
|
|
- `"23503"` (foreign key violation) → `ErrResourceInUse`
|
|
|
|
# Primary key constraint handling
|
|
|
|
**Do not** add a 23505 check for a single-column GID primary key (`id TEXT PRIMARY KEY`). GIDs are generated and cannot realistically collide; such a check is dead code.
|
|
|
|
**Do** check the composite primary key on junction tables where the PK represents a business uniqueness constraint (e.g. a link between two entities).
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
// GOOD — composite PK on a junction table (real business constraint)
|
|
if pgErr, ok := errors.AsType[*pgconn.PgError](err); ok && pgErr.Code == "23505" && pgErr.ConstraintName == "risk_assessment_scenario_threats_pkey" {
|
|
return ErrResourceAlreadyExists
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// BAD — single GID PK (can never collide, dead code)
|
|
if pgErr, ok := errors.AsType[*pgconn.PgError](err); ok && pgErr.Code == "23505" && pgErr.ConstraintName == "risk_assessments_pkey" {
|
|
return ErrResourceAlreadyExists
|
|
}
|
|
```
