Problem

Users report missing notifications when the second part of a range order is taken (v1.3.0 reports; companion PR: #640).

When the maker sends fiat-sent/release on a range order, _prepareChildOrderIfNeeded derives the next trade key and creates a pending child session — but SessionNotifier.createChildOrderSession() kept it in memory only (_pendingChildSessions). It was persisted only when linkChildSessionToOrderId() ran, which only happens in the foreground isolate (MostroService._maybeLinkChildOrder).

Two failure modes:

  1. App backgrounded after release: the background isolate loads sessions from the sessions store (_loadSessionsFromDatabase), so events addressed to the child trade key (the child new-order, and anything after) cannot be decrypted — no notification is ever shown for the child order.
  2. App killed before the child new-order was processed in foreground: the pending session is lost entirely. Every later event for the child trade key hits No matching session found for recipient and the child order becomes invisible until a restore.

Fix

  • SessionStorage: pending child sessions (no orderId yet) are persisted under a pending-child:<tradeKeyPublic> record key, via new putPendingChildSession() / deletePendingChildSession(). getAll() (used by the background isolate) naturally includes them.
  • SessionNotifier:
    • createChildOrderSession() persists the pending session immediately.
    • init() restores pending children into memory after a restart (expired ones are deleted instead).
    • linkChildSessionToOrderId() / saveSession() drop the pending record once the session is stored under its orderId.
    • _cleanup() handles expired pending records safely (they have no orderId).
  • Background isolate (background_notification_service.dart): when the child new-order confirmation arrives while backgrounded, link the session to the child order id right there (mirrors MostroService._maybeLinkChildOrder, same pattern as the existing _maybeUpdateSessionWithPeer persistence). Later events for the child order then find the session by orderId (role-gated notifications like fiat-sent-ok, admin DMs).

The foreground link path stays idempotent: if the background already linked, the foreground re-link is a no-op overwrite and the pending delete is a no-op.

Test plan

  • New tests in test/notifiers/pending_child_session_persistence_test.dart (real SessionStorage over in-memory sembast):
    • pending child persisted on creation
    • pending child restored after an app restart
    • expired pending child dropped on init
    • link re-stores under the orderId and removes the pending record
    • link works on a pending child restored after restart
    • putPendingChildSession rejects sessions that already have an orderId
    • getAll() includes pending children (background isolate contract)
  • flutter analyze — no issues
  • flutter test — 488 tests pass

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Pending child sessions are now saved before an order ID is available.
    • Sessions are automatically linked to the confirmed child order when available.
    • Pending sessions are restored after app restarts and removed when expired or successfully linked.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Background notification processing now preserves pending child sessions even when non-critical errors occur.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for persistence, restoration, expiration cleanup, order linking, and background loading.

Walkthrough

Pending range-order child sessions can now persist without an orderId, survive restarts, expire correctly, and transition to order-backed sessions when background notifications provide the child order ID.

Changes

Pending child session lifecycle

Layer / File(s) Summary
Pending session storage contract
lib/data/repositories/session_storage.dart
SessionStorage adds prefixed trade-key storage and deletion for pending child sessions. Validation rejects sessions with an existing orderId or without a parentOrderId.
Notifier persistence lifecycle
lib/shared/notifiers/session_notifier.dart, test/notifiers/pending_child_session_persistence_test.dart, test/notifiers/session_notifier_test.dart
SessionNotifier persists new pending sessions, restores active records, removes expired records, and deletes pending records after promotion. Tests cover restart, expiration, linking, validation, and background loading.
Background order linking
lib/features/notifications/services/background_notification_service.dart, test/notifiers/pending_child_session_persistence_test.dart
Background notification handling assigns confirmed child order IDs, persists linked sessions, removes pending records, and logs failures without stopping processing.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 17c5e

This change persists pending child sessions, but failed writes can still be treated as successful and promotion to the final order record is not atomic. A storage failure or process interruption could therefore make child-order notifications unavailable or leave session records inconsistent, so the PR should not merge until these cases are handled.

Hermes Review

I reviewed the current head (569273a22661d912d591ec7773e264b26a1d6e41) and did not find a code-level blocker in the pending-child-session persistence changes. The storage/linking approach matches the failure mode: pending child sessions are durable before the child new-order, restored after restart, included in the background isolate session load, and removed once linked under the concrete child order id. The added focused tests cover the main persistence and cleanup invariants.

Blocking before merge: GitHub currently reports this PR as not mergeable (mergeable_state: dirty). Please resolve the conflicts with main, then rerun the Flutter workflow and this should be ready for another pass.

Note: I could not run local Flutter checks in this environment because flutter is not installed on PATH; I relied on code inspection plus the current GitHub Actions build, which is green for this head.

…estarts

Pending child sessions (created on fiat-sent/release of a range order,
before mostrod assigns the child order id) lived only in the
SessionNotifier's memory. Two failure modes followed:

- The background isolate loads sessions from the sessions store to
  decrypt incoming events, so anything addressed to the child trade key
  while the app was backgrounded could not be decrypted and never
  produced a notification.
- If the app was killed before the child new-order message was
  processed in foreground, the pending session (and its derived trade
  key index) was lost entirely; the child order became invisible with
  'No matching session found for recipient' on every later event.

Changes:
- SessionStorage: store pending child sessions under a
  'pending-child:<tradeKeyPublic>' record key (they have no orderId
  yet), with putPendingChildSession/deletePendingChildSession.
- SessionNotifier: persist on createChildOrderSession, restore pending
  children on init (with expiration handling), drop the pending record
  when the session is linked or saved under its orderId, and clean up
  expired pending records.
- Background isolate: link the pending child session to its order id
  when the new-order confirmation arrives while backgrounded, mirroring
  MostroService._maybeLinkChildOrder, so later events for the child
  order find the session under its orderId (role-gated notifications,
  admin DMs).
…tests

The SessionNotifier tests added with the push token registration for
range-order child trade keys mock SessionStorage; stub the pending child
persistence methods so createChildOrderSession and
linkChildSessionToOrderId no longer hit MissingStubError.

Make pending-child promotion atomic.

Use one SessionStorage operation that writes the order-keyed record and deletes the pending-keyed record in the same Sembast transaction. Apply it in saveSession, linkChildSessionToOrderId, and _maybeLinkChildOrder. A process stop between the current operations can lose the session or restore both records after restart.

Comment thread lib/shared/notifiers/session_notifier.dart
Review follow-ups on the pending child session persistence:

- Bound the lifetime of a pending child record independently of the
  session expiration setting. With expiration disabled (0 == forever)
  a child that never linked stayed on disk and kept widening the orders
  subscription filter on every launch; they now expire after
  Config.pendingChildSessionExpirationHours, and _cleanup runs that pass
  even in forever mode.
- Drop stored records that have neither orderId nor parentOrderId
  instead of resurrecting them as pending children that can never link.
- saveSession now stores the session under its orderId before deleting
  the pending record, so a crash in between cannot lose the session.
- Delete failures of the pending record are logged instead of thrown, so
  they no longer skip the state emission and push-token retry.
- Link a pending child on any message carrying an order id, not only on
  new-order: the device can be woken (FCM) by a later event for the
  child while the new-order message never reached that isolate, which
  left the session unlinked and its notifications role-gated out.
- Extract the repeated database/key-manager bootstrap in the background
  isolate into _openSessionStorage, and reset orderId when the
  background link fails so the next attempt retries it.
