Summary
I've successfully added database indexes to optimize all forum queries, eliminating sequential scans across the forum module.
✅ Entity Changes
forum-thread.entity.ts
)
Added @Index(['status', 'createdAt']) to support the getThreads() query that filters by status and orders by creation date
2. ForumComment (
forum-comment.entity.ts
)
Added @Index(['threadId', 'createdAt']) to optimize loading comments for a thread
Added @Index(['parentId']) to support nested comment queries (replies)
3. ForumVote (
forum-vote.entity.ts
)
Added @Index(['entityType', 'entityId']) to optimize vote counting in updateVoteTotals()
✅ Migration Created
1783000000004-add-forum-indexes.ts
Comprehensive migration that creates all four indexes
Includes detailed documentation explaining:
Each query pattern and why it needs an index
Design decisions for composite vs. single-column indexes
Expected performance improvements
Verification queries with expected outputs
