Fix dangling status stops in references.stops in trips-for-route

Closes #1338

Problem

trips-for-route builds references.stops exclusively from the stop IDs collected out of each entry's schedule. That collection runs only inside the includeSchedule branch — in both the normal entry loop and the loop that appends DUPLICATED (extra-run) entries from the real-time feed — so when a request asks for includeSchedule=false&includeStatus=true, no stop IDs are collected at all, while every entry's status still names a closestStop and nextStop. Those IDs end up having no corresponding value in references.stops

Fix

After both entry loops finish and before the reference is built, the handler now makes a single pass over the finished entries and records each non-nil status's closestStop and nextStop into the same stop-ID accumulator the schedule collection feeds.

Testing

TestTripsForRouteHandler_StatusStopsAreReferenced drives the handler with includeSchedule=false&includeStatus=true and asserts that every non-empty status.closestStop/nextStop across all returned entries resolves in references.stops, while also asserting that no schedule information is returned. It fails on the pre-fix code and passes post-fix.

Note

Previously, if GetStopsByIDs returned an error, the handler logged a warning and degraded references.Stops to an empty slice; the response then continued and returned 200 OK with references.Stops totally empty. This behavior contradicts CONTRIBUTING.md, on handling query failures. Now, if GetStopsByIDs returns an error the handler sends a 500 server error response instead.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Trip results now include stops referenced by real-time status information, even when schedules are excluded.
    • Closest and next status stops are handled independently from scheduled stops.
    • Missing status data and malformed stop identifiers continue to be handled safely.
    • Requests now report an error when referenced stop information cannot be resolved.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage confirming that status stops appear in trip results without schedules.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The handlers now derive referenced stops from schedule and status data separately. The route handler propagates stop lookup errors. An integration test verifies that closest and next status stops resolve when schedules are excluded.

Changes

Status stop references

Layer / File(s) Summary
Separate schedule and status stop collection
internal/restapi/reference_utils.go, internal/restapi/trips_for_location_handler.go
The location handler passes schedules and statuses separately. The collector deduplicates IDs, preserves combined IDs, skips malformed status IDs, and performs batched stop queries.
Route reference construction and validation
internal/restapi/trips_for_route_handler.go, internal/restapi/trips_for_route_handler_test.go
The route handler derives references from completed result entries, removes schedule-only stop accumulation, and returns lookup errors. The integration test verifies that status stop IDs resolve when schedules are excluded.

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

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 3b465

Trip reference responses can remain incomplete for cross-agency interlined trips, and the current package may not compile due to an unused local variable. Both issues must be resolved before merge.

Found 1 issue:

  1. stopsReferencedByEntries is now shared by two handlers but still lives in trips_for_location_handler.go, and its doc comment no longer describes what it does. CONTRIBUTING.md says reference-building helpers belong in internal/restapi/reference_utils.go ("Reference building (internal/restapi/reference_utils.go) — building the Agency/Route/Situation reference blocks used in list/entry responses"), and c00a305 ("Build every stop reference through one helper") already moved the sibling stopReferences there for exactly this reason. The comment still says "those on each entry's schedule, plus the closest and next stops on its status" and "the in-bounds stop set is deliberately not included" — the function no longer takes entries, and trips-for-route has no in-bounds stop set. The signature change is also why both call sites now repeat the same 7-line entry → (schedules, statuses) split; a shared helper in reference_utils.go taking the two entry types (or a small shared accessor) would keep that in one place.

// stopsReferencedByEntries fetches the stops the response actually refers to:
// those on each entry's schedule, plus the closest and next stops on its status.
// The in-bounds stop set is deliberately not included — it is a candidate-trip
// selection detail, and stops on it that no returned trip serves have nothing in
// the response pointing at them.
func (api *RestAPI) stopsReferencedByEntries(ctx context.Context, schedules []*models.TripsSchedule, statuses []*models.TripStatus) ([]gtfsdb.Stop, map[string]string, error) {
stopIDsByBareID := make(map[string]string)

The diagnosis is right and the fix works — I confirmed the new test fails
against main and passes with the change. With includeSchedule=false there
are no schedule stop IDs at all, so status.closestStop/nextStop are the only
thing references.stops has to resolve from, and building the stops block
purely from schedule IDs left them dangling. Reusing trips-for-location's
existing helper instead of writing a second one is the right instinct.

What I'd like changed before this lands:

1. The now-shared helper is still in a handler-specific file, and its doc
comment no longer describes it.

stopsReferencedByEntries is called from both trips_for_route_handler.go and
trips_for_location_handler.go, but lives in the latter. CONTRIBUTING.md puts
reference-building helpers in internal/restapi/reference_utils.go, and commit
c00a305 moved the sibling stopReferences there for exactly this reason.

The comment is the bigger problem, because it now misleads:

stopsReferencedByEntries fetches the stops the response actually refers to:
those on each entry's schedule, plus the closest and next stops on its status.
The in-bounds stop set is deliberately not included — it is a candidate-trip
selection detail...

There are no entries in the signature any more, and "the in-bounds stop set" is
a trips-for-location concept that means nothing to a trips-for-route reader.
Please move the function to reference_utils.go, rewrite the comment for the
shared contract, and rename it — it takes schedules and statuses now, so
something like stopsReferencedBySchedulesAndStatuses says what it does.

2. The parallel-slice signature pushes duplication into both call sites.
Both handlers now repeat the same seven lines splitting entries into
schedules/statuses (trips_for_route_handler.go ~505, and
trips_for_location_handler.go ~118). That's the duplication @soumajitgh
flagged, and it's a consequence of the signature choice rather than an oversight
— two parallel slices that must stay index-aligned is a shape worth avoiding on
its own. Consider having the helper take the pairs directly (a small
{Schedule, Status} struct, or a variadic of them) so neither caller has to
build two lists in lockstep.

3. Please note the error-handling change in the description.
A GetStopsByIDs failure used to log a warning and degrade to an empty stops
block; it now returns a 500. I think that's the right change — CONTRIBUTING.md
is explicit that a failed query shouldn't be collapsed into a
looks-like-success response — but it's a behavior change beyond the stated scope
and a reviewer shouldn't have to discover it from the diff.

Small one: typo in the new test's comment — "the whole of whatreferences.stops".

One logistics note: I just merged #1360, which restructures buildTripReferences
in the same handler, so you'll need to merge main in and resolve. The two
changes are complementary — #1360 seeds routes from the stop references, this
one changes where the stops themselves come from — but the resolution isn't
purely mechanical, so give it a careful read. Happy to re-review promptly.

Thanks — the requested changes have been addressed:

  • Renamed stopsReferencedByEntries to prestopsReferencedBySchedulesAndStatuses and moved it to internal/restapi/reference_utils.go. The doc comment has been updated to accurately describe its purpose.
  • Refactored the helper to accept a slice of {Schedule, Status} structs, avoiding the need to build and maintain index-aligned slices in lockstep.
  • Also noted the error-handling change in the PR description.

592-595: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Preserve all agency-qualified stop IDs for one bare stop ID.

An interlined entry can emit tfr-agency_tfr-stop1 from its schedule and tfr-agency-b_tfr-stop1 from its status. The collector keeps only the first combined ID for bare ID tfr-stop1, and StopIDsByBareID also stores one value. One emitted stop ID then has no entry in references.stops.

Store every combined ID per bare ID and publish one stop reference for each combined ID. The crossAgencyInterlineFiles fixture has this exact two-agency, shared-stop shape.

@burma-shave per the comment noted by coderabbit, it describes a situation where for an interlined block entry spanning multiple agencies, the queried-route trip's schedule.stopTimes.stopID prefixed by its agencyID, and then the same stop is referenced by the status.closestStop.StopID by a different agencyID (both agencies refer to the same stop, only the agencyID prefix differs), the current PR's implementation would mean that the queried-route trip's combined stop id is the only one which would resolve in references. The combined stopID in status.closestStop.StopID will not resolve in references because the current implementation assumes that stops are prefixed by the same one agency.

However, after reflecting more on this, I realized that this scenario is not scoped to just a single entry alone. It is guaranteed that the schedule.stopTimes.stopID across all entries are prefixed by the same agencyID. However, each entry could possibly have a status.closestStop.StopID with a different agencyID prefix referencing the same stop in another entirely different entry. This means that we can have an arbitrary number of combined stopIDs with different agency_ID prefix which all reference the same bare stopID.

A possible fix is to resolve every combined stopID in references, regardless of if multiple combined stopIDs reference the same bare stopID.

I decided to confirm if this is a suitable direction to go with this and to gain some more clarification on this.

Thanks for digging into the CodeRabbit note. Yes, your proposed direction sounds right to me and is aligned with the OneBusAway response model: references.stops should include the exact combined stop IDs that the response entries emit.

The important contract is that IDs such as schedule.stopTimes[*].stopId, status.closestStop, and status.nextStop should resolve by exact string match in references.stops. So if an interlined/cross-agency response can emit both agencyA_stop1 and agencyB_stop1 for the same underlying bare GTFS stop ID, the reference builder should retain and publish both combined IDs rather than collapsing them to one entry keyed only by bare stop1.

Concretely, I’d suggest changing the collection from “one combined ID per bare stop ID” to “all combined IDs per bare stop ID”, then emitting one stop reference for each combined ID using the same underlying stop row.

Also, please merge/rebase against current main; the PR is currently marked dirty and conflicts in internal/restapi/trips_for_route_handler.go. Once that’s resolved and this reference preservation case is handled, we can re-review.
