Session Resume - Dutchie Menus Project

Current State (2025-11-17)

Services Running

• Frontend: http://localhost:5174 (Vite + React)
• Backend: http://localhost:3012 (Express + TypeScript)
• Database: PostgreSQL in Docker (port 54320)
  • DB Name: dutchie_menus
  • User: dutchie
  • Password: dutchie_local_pass

Files Modified This Session

1. /home/kelly/dutchie-menus/backend/.env

   • Fixed DATABASE_URL to use correct Docker database

2. /home/kelly/dutchie-menus/frontend/src/lib/api.ts

   • Updated API_URL to port 3012

3. /home/kelly/dutchie-menus/frontend/src/pages/StoreDetail.tsx

   • Fixed navigation buttons (Brands/Specials) to use setViewMode() instead of routing
   • Added "Discover Categories" and "Scrape Store" buttons in navbar
   • Navigation bar is sticky at top

4. /home/kelly/dutchie-menus/backend/create-brands-table.ts

   • Fixed database connection string to use Docker database
   • ALREADY RAN: Created brands and specials tables successfully

Database Tables Created

• ✅ brands (with indexes on store_id and unique constraint on store_id+name)
• ✅ specials (with indexes on store_id+valid_date and product_id)

Current Issue

Category Discovery Failing - When clicking "Scrape Store", the scraper finds 0 categories:

• The scraper cannot find navigation links on the Curaleaf website
• Without categories, no products can be scraped
• Without products, no brands can be extracted

What Works

• ✅ Frontend loads correctly
• ✅ Backend connects to database
• ✅ Login works
• ✅ Navigation buttons switch between Products/Brands/Specials views
• ✅ Database tables exist

What Doesn't Work

• ❌ Category discovery returns 0 categories
• ❌ Product scraping cannot proceed without categories
• ❌ Brands don't populate (because no products are scraped)

To Restart This Session

Say to Claude:

Continue the dutchie-menus session. The category discovery is failing (finding 0 categories) when scraping the Curaleaf store. We need to fix the scraper so it can find categories on https://curaleaf.com/stores/curaleaf-az-48th-street and then scrape products/brands.

Current URLs:
- Frontend: http://localhost:5174/stores/az/curaleaf/curaleaf-az-48th-street
- Backend: http://localhost:3012

The scraper logs show:
- "Found 0 navigation links"
- "Custom menu detected - extracting from navigation"
- "Created 0 custom categories"

Need to investigate why category discovery is failing and fix it.

Quick Start Commands

# Terminal 1 - Frontend
cd /home/kelly/dutchie-menus/frontend && npm run dev

# Terminal 2 - Backend
cd /home/kelly/dutchie-menus/backend && PORT=3012 DATABASE_URL="postgresql://dutchie:dutchie_local_pass@localhost:54320/dutchie_menus" npm run dev

# Check backend logs
tail -f <backend_output>

Next Steps

1. Investigate category discovery code in backend scraper
2. Debug why navigation links aren't being found
3. Either fix the scraper or manually add categories
4. Test scraping to populate products and brands
