fix(attributes): drop index lengths and orders with a deleted attribute by HarshMN2345 · Pull Request #1061 · utopia-php/database

HarshMN2345 · 2026-11-11T13:03:04Z

Deleting an attribute removed it from each index's attributes but kept that position's lengths and orders entry. An index on [a, b] with lengths [10, 20] became [b] with [10, 20], and every later updateAttribute() on the collection failed with "Invalid index lengths. Count of lengths must be equal or less than the number of attributes."

withoutIndexedAttribute() now removes the entry at the deleted attribute's position from all three arrays.

Tested with a script on the SQLite adapter: before, [b] / [10, 20] / [ASC, DESC]; after, [b] / [20] / [DESC].

Summary by CodeRabbit

Bug Fixes
- Index metadata now remains aligned when an attribute is removed. Indexes with no remaining attributes continue to be omitted.

Deleting an attribute removed it from each index's attributes but kept its length and order, so the index ended up with more lengths than attributes and every later updateAttribute() failed index validation.

Walkthrough

withoutIndexedAttribute now removes the deleted attribute’s positional entries from each affected index’s attributes, lengths, and orders metadata. It omits indexes with no remaining attributes.

Changes: Indexed attribute removal

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Update aligned index metadata `src/Database/Trait/Attributes.php`	The method removes the deleted attribute’s position from the index’s `attributes`, `lengths`, and `orders` lists. It reconstructs nonempty indexes and omits indexes with no attributes.

Attribute deletion now cleans up index lengths and orders correctly in the normal case. An edge case with duplicate index attributes can still leave stale metadata; fix this before merge or accept it as a narrow gap.

No defects were found in the changes reviewed.

Deleting an attribute now removes its corresponding entries from each surviving index’s attributes, lengths, and orders, while dropping indexes left empty. The end-to-end regression test checks the remaining metadata and confirms a subsequent attribute update succeeds.

Latest changes: The latest change now removes every matching attribute occurrence, processing positions in reverse to keep positional metadata aligned.

Add a database-level regression test.

The supplied test calls the adapter directly, so it does not exercise this method. Add a test that deletes an indexed attribute through Database, reloads the collection, checks lengths and orders, and updates a remaining attribute.

Provide a repair path for existing affected indexes.

Indexes damaged before this change can still block schema-altering updateAttribute() calls. The new deletion path does not repair them. Provide a way to restore their lengths and orders from an authoritative index definition.

fix(attributes): drop index lengths and orders with a deleted attribute

01057cd

Deleting an attribute removed it from each index's attributes but kept its length and order, so the index ended up with more lengths than attributes and every later updateAttribute() failed index validation.
