Why

Replaying the Oct 16–18 production P0s (entities fetched from api.rocketpy.org, pushed into a local instance) showed every one of them was an opaque 500 "Unexpected error" for what was really a client-side design problem, plus a non-standard 422 body that the jarvis client could not read. Companion jarvis PR: RocketPy-Team/jarvis-ts#75. Deploy this first.

Changes

Opaque 500s → descriptive 422/404

  • MotorService.from_motor_model, GENERIC branch: burn_time, chamber_radius, chamber_height, chamber_position, propellant_initial_mass are all required by rocketpy.GenericMotor; a None did not fail at construction but crashed later as Function(None) inside center_of_propellant_mass ('NoneType' object has no attribute 'shape') on every drawing / simulate call. Now 422 "Generic motor requires: a, b" naming every missing field, same requires: shape as the tank-kind guard.
  • controller_exception_handler: RocketPy ValueError (overfilled tank, bad trigger, …) → 422 with the message instead of 500.
  • repository_exception_handler + find_by_id / update_by_id / delete_by_id: malformed ObjectIds (/rockets/undefined) → 404 instead of 500.
  • validation_exception_handler: FastAPI's standard {"detail": [{loc, msg, type}]} instead of a bare "RequestValidationError: [...]" string.

Rockets without a motor

  • RocketModel.motor is Optional. jarvis saves the airframe before any motor exists; the old placeholder GENERIC motor with null fields was the source of most of the 500s above. A null motor keeps the EmptyMotor rocketpy constructs every Rocket with (drawing already handled it); RocketService.require_motor() answers 422 "Rocket has no motor yet. Save a motor before simulating." on rocket/flight simulate.

Verification

  • make test lint format VENV_BIN=.venv/bin: 199 passed (18 new: GENERIC guard, ValueError→422, malformed ids, structured 422, motorless rocket); pylint 10.00/10 on src and tests; Black/Ruff clean.
  • Incident replays (placeholder rocket, placeholder motor, COTS motor without chamber position, overfilled tank, /rockets/undefined, motorless rocket) all answer a descriptive 4xx on this branch.

The three RocketPy-fidelity relaxations found by the example corpus (zero dry_inertia, float flight time fields, list drag curves with duplicate Mach rows) are split out into a stacked follow-up PR so they can be judged on their own.

📝 Walkthrough

The changes standardize API and repository error responses, validate GenericMotor fields, and allow fractional flight timing and zero dry inertia. Rocket construction now supports optional motors and normalized drag curves. Simulation and flight construction reject rockets without a motor.

Changes: Runtime error handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
API, controller, and repository responses
src/api.py, src/controllers/interface.py, src/repositories/interface.py, tests/unit/test_controllers/test_controller_interface.py, tests/unit/test_repositories/test_repository_interface.py, tests/unit/test_routes/test_rockets_route.py, docs/solutions/runtime-errors/...2026-10-18.md
Validation errors now return FastAPI-style detail entries containing loc, msg, and type. Controller ValueErrors return 422 responses. Repository handlers preserve HTTPException; malformed IDs return 404 for update and delete, and None for lookup. Tests and the incident document cover these behaviors.

RocketPy input and rocket behavior

GenericMotor construction reports missing required fields in a 422 response. Zero dry inertia is accepted. Flight model time fields accept fractional values. Tests cover the input and construction behavior.
Drag curves and optional rocket motors

Rocket drag points are sorted, duplicate Mach values keep the first row, and the resulting function uses linear interpolation with constant extrapolation. Rockets can be constructed without a motor. Simulation and flight construction return 422 when no motor is present.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 601a6

Most of the error-handling and motorless-rocket changes behave as intended. However, the lint check currently fails, so CI cannot pass. Inline drag tables with repeated Mach values also use the smallest coefficient rather than the first one, which can silently change simulation results. Fix both before merging.

⚠️ Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.

Restrict the 422 mapping to client-input errors.

except ValueError also catches Pydantic ValidationError, which subclasses ValueError. If model.RETRIEVED(...) rejects a persisted value, this branch returns 422 and exposes the internal validation message instead of reporting a server failure. Translate known RocketPy input errors at their call sites, or distinguish them before returning client-facing details. (github.com)

Based on learnings, “For unhandled or internal exceptions, do not return raw details to clients; log the details server-side and return a generic, non-sensitive message with an appropriate status code.”

Keep the first input row for each Mach value.

sorted() orders equal Mach values by coefficient. For [[0.5, 0.9], [0.5, 0.55]], this code keeps 0.55, although the helper and its test specify the first row, 0.9. The resulting drag function supplies the wrong coefficient to the simulation. Preserve input order when selecting duplicates, then sort the selected rows by Mach. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Move the new imports to the module import block.

The Pylint pipeline fails on the fastapi and rocketpy imports at Lines 235 and 238. It also fails because Line 298 reimports MotorTank, TankFluids, and TankKinds.

… ValueErrors, malformed ids; accept motorless rockets

Replaying the Oct 2026 production P0s against a local instance showed four
opaque 500s and a non-standard 422 body:

- GENERIC motors with chamber_radius/height/position or
  propellant_initial_mass = None constructed fine and crashed on first use
  (Function(None) in center_of_propellant_mass). MotorService now raises
  422 "Generic motor requires: a, b" naming every missing field.
- RocketPy ValueErrors (overfilled tank, etc.) were wrapped as 500; the
  controller handler now maps them to 422 with the message.
- ObjectId("undefined") raised InvalidId -> 500; find_by_id returns None
  (404 upstream), update/delete raise 404.
- The RequestValidationError handler returned a bare string; it now returns
  FastAPI's standard {"detail": [{loc, msg, type}]}.

RocketModel.motor is now Optional: a rocket saved before its motor exists
keeps rocketpy's EmptyMotor (draws fine); rocket/flight simulate answer 422
"Rocket has no motor yet" via RocketService.require_motor().

Tests: 199 passing (18 new).

Addressed the review. Note the review ran against the pre-split branch; the fidelity relaxations (zero dry_inertia, float flight fields, list drag curves) now live in #77, stacked on this PR.

  • except ValueError also catching pydantic ValidationError — agreed, pydantic's error subclasses ValueError. Added an explicit except ValidationError branch ahead of it that keeps the generic 500 path (log server-side, "Unexpected error" to the client), with a test that a model failing validation inside a controller does not take the 422 branch. RocketPy's own ValueErrors (overfilled tank, etc.) still map to 422 with their message, which is the point of the change.
  • services/rocket.py import order / duplicate-Mach "keep first" — both real; both fixed in ENH: run the official RocketPy example designs unchanged #77 where that code now lives. Function joined the existing rocketpy import group; the drag-curve builder now dedupes in input order and only then sorts by Mach, and the test's duplicate row carries the larger coefficient first so sorting-before-dedup would fail it.
  • Mid-file test imports — hoisted to the module import block; the duplicate tank imports are gone.
  • Machine-specific path in the solution doc — the document was dropped from this PR altogether; the regression harness is now versioned in jarvis-ts (scripts/rocketpy-regression, npm run rocketpy:regression).

CI's exact pylint invocation passes locally at 10.00/10; make test 200 passed.
