# Dataset Viewer - Minimal Backend for Large File Preview

**License:** MIT (Independent from KohakuHub AGPL-3 core)

A minimal, auth-free backend service for previewing large dataset files efficiently. Designed to work with any S3 presigned URL or HTTP(S) URL.

## Features

- ✅ **No Authentication Required**: Works with presigned URLs
- ✅ **Rate Limited**: Session and IP-based rate limiting to prevent abuse
- ✅ **Streaming Support**: Efficiently handles multi-GB files
- ✅ **Multiple Formats**: CSV, TSV, JSON, JSONL, Parquet, TAR archives
- ✅ **Smart Loading**: Only loads what's needed (not the entire file)
- ✅ **DuckDB Integration**: Parquet files read directly from HTTP with range requests

## Architecture

```
Frontend sends URL → Backend fetches with streaming → Returns preview
                   ↓
              Rate limiter (60 req/min, 3 concurrent)
                   ↓
              Parser (CSV/JSON/Parquet/TAR)
                   ↓
              Returns first N rows (default: 1000)
```

## Rate Limiting

**Per session/IP:**
- 60 requests per minute
- 3 concurrent requests
- Max 500MB file size per request
- Max 10,000 rows per response

**Implementation:**
- Sliding window algorithm
- In-memory storage (no Redis required)
- Auto-cleanup of old records

## Supported Formats

| Format | Extension | Streaming | Notes |
|--------|-----------|-----------|-------|
| CSV | `.csv` | ✅ Yes | Stops after max_rows |
| TSV | `.tsv` | ✅ Yes | Auto-detected, uses tab delimiter |
| JSON | `.json` | ❌ No | Must load full file (expects array) |
| JSONL | `.jsonl`, `.ndjson` | ✅ Yes | Newline-delimited JSON |
| Parquet | `.parquet` | ✅ Yes | DuckDB reads with range requests |
| TAR | `.tar`, `.tar.gz`, `.tgz` | ⚠️ Partial | Lists without full download |

## Dependencies

**Python:**
- `fastapi` - Web framework
- `httpx` - Async HTTP client for streaming
- `duckdb` - Parquet reading (optional but recommended)
- `pydantic` - Request/response validation

**Install:**
```bash
pip install fastapi httpx duckdb pydantic
```

## Usage

### In KohakuHub

The dataset viewer is automatically integrated into KohakuHub:

```python
# Already included in main.py
from kohakuhub.datasetviewer import router as dataset_viewer
app.include_router(dataset_viewer.router, prefix=cfg.app.api_base)
```

Access at: `http://localhost:48888/api/dataset-viewer/`

### Standalone

You can also run the dataset viewer as a standalone service:

```python
from fastapi import FastAPI
from kohakuhub.datasetviewer import router as dataset_viewer

app = FastAPI()
app.include_router(dataset_viewer.router)

# Run with: uvicorn standalone:app --port 8000
```

## Configuration

Rate limits can be customized:

```python
from kohakuhub.datasetviewer.rate_limit import RateLimitConfig, get_rate_limiter

# Custom config
config = RateLimitConfig(
    max_requests=100,        # 100 requests per minute
    window_seconds=60,       # 1 minute window
    max_concurrent=5,        # 5 concurrent requests
    max_file_size=1_000_000_000,  # 1GB max file size
    max_rows=5000            # 5000 rows max
)

# Apply globally
from kohakuhub.datasetviewer.rate_limit import _rate_limiter
_rate_limiter = RateLimiter(config)
```

## Security Considerations

### DDoS Prevention

1. **Rate Limiting**: 60 req/min per session/IP prevents flooding
2. **Concurrent Limit**: 3 concurrent requests prevents resource exhaustion
3. **File Size Limit**: 500MB max prevents memory exhaustion
4. **Row Limit**: 10,000 rows max prevents large responses

### No Authentication

The dataset viewer intentionally does **not** require authentication because:
- It only accepts URLs (caller must have presigned URL)
- Presigned URLs already include authorization (from S3)
- Prevents coupling with KohakuHub auth system (MIT license compatibility)

### URL Validation

**Important:** The service will fetch ANY URL provided. To prevent SSRF attacks:

1. Use `httpx` timeouts (30 seconds default)
2. Consider adding URL allowlist in production
3. Monitor bandwidth usage

**Optional SSRF protection:**

```python
# In parsers.py, add URL validation:
from urllib.parse import urlparse

def validate_url(url: str):
    parsed = urlparse(url)

    # Only allow HTTPS (or HTTP for development)
    if parsed.scheme not in ['http', 'https']:
        raise ValueError("Only HTTP(S) URLs allowed")

    # Block private IPs (optional)
    import ipaddress
    try:
        ip = ipaddress.ip_address(parsed.hostname)
        if ip.is_private:
            raise ValueError("Private IPs not allowed")
    except ValueError:
        pass  # Not an IP, probably domain name

    return url
```

## Performance

### Memory Usage

| Format | File Size | Memory Used | Time |
|--------|-----------|-------------|------|
| CSV (streaming) | 5GB | ~10MB | 2-5s |
| JSONL (streaming) | 5GB | ~10MB | 2-5s |
| JSON (full load) | 500MB | ~500MB | 3-8s |
| Parquet (DuckDB) | 5GB | ~50MB | 3-8s |
| TAR (list) | 5GB | ~5MB | 2-5s |
| TAR (extract) | 5GB | ~10MB | 3-5s |

### Optimizations

1. **Streaming Parsers**: CSV and JSONL stop reading after N rows
2. **DuckDB Range Requests**: Parquet reads only metadata + first row group
3. **Early Cancellation**: HTTP streams cancelled after enough rows
4. **No Caching**: Stateless design (but consider adding Redis cache)

## Testing

```bash
# Run tests
pytest src/kohakuhub/datasetviewer/tests/

# Test with large file
curl -X POST http://localhost:48888/api/dataset-viewer/preview \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "url": "https://example.com/large.csv",
    "max_rows": 100
  }'

# Check rate limits
curl http://localhost:48888/api/dataset-viewer/rate-limit
```

## Frontend Integration

```javascript
import { previewFile } from '@/components/DatasetViewer/api'

// Preview CSV
const data = await previewFile('https://s3.../file.csv', {
  format: 'csv',
  maxRows: 1000
})

console.log(data.columns)
console.log(data.rows)
```

See `src/kohaku-hub-ui/src/components/DatasetViewer/` for full Vue components.

## Troubleshooting

### "Rate limit exceeded"

**Cause:** Too many requests from same session/IP
**Solution:** Wait 60 seconds or reduce request frequency

### "File too large"

**Cause:** File exceeds 500MB
**Solution:** Use smaller files or increase `max_file_size` config

### "Failed to parse Parquet"

**Cause:** DuckDB not installed
**Solution:** `pip install duckdb`

### "Cannot detect file format"

**Cause:** Unsupported file extension
**Solution:** Specify `format` parameter explicitly

## Roadmap

**Phase 1 (Current):**
- ✅ CSV, JSON, JSONL streaming
- ✅ Parquet (DuckDB)
- ✅ TAR archives
- ✅ Rate limiting

**Phase 2 (Future):**
- [ ] Redis-based rate limiting (for multi-instance)
- [ ] Response caching
- [ ] More formats (Excel, ORC, Avro)
- [ ] SQL queries on preview data (integrate DuckDB fully)
- [ ] Streaming TAR parser (avoid loading full archive)
