Description of the change

Learning Record now runs as its own service (unlocked-learning-record), so core no longer has the module:

  • Removed: backend/src/modules/learningrecord (routes, store, models, its migration and README), its entry in registry.All() (the registry is now empty, since Programs left in feat: move Programs to its own service (EN-207) #1290), and its depguard rules and registry_test.go expectations. TestFeatureFlags_MiddlewareEnforcesClaims is removed from the integration tests: it used /api/learning-record/entries as its feature-gated route and core has no feature-gated route left. The same middleware check is still covered by TestModuleRouter* in handlers/modules_test.go. Its route tests and 19 golden files moved to the new repo, where they pass unchanged (unlocked-learning-record feat: add nextui and unlocked branding #2).
  • Nothing else in core changes beyond the dev setup below. No other module asked Learning Record anything (its api package was empty), it has no jobs or worker, and core needs no URL or token for it. The frontend is unchanged too: the new service answers at the same /api/learning-record/... paths.
  • What stays in core: the learning_record feature flag (core still says whether it's on at a facility) and the GET /api/users/{id}/account-history route that shows the service's learning_record_deleted rows.
  • The migration and its ledger (00001_move_into_learning_record_schema.sql, public.goose_db_version_learningrecord) now belong to the new repo. Its copy is byte-identical, so it does nothing on a database where core already ran it.

Dev: make dev builds Learning Record's main straight from GitHub, so you need no checkout. To build your own changes, set LEARNING_RECORD_DIR in .env to your checkout; to try a branch, set LEARNING_RECORD_REF. It runs as learning-record (port 8085, since Programs uses 8084) and learning-record-migrate, and the dev nginx sends /api/learning-record there. make migrate and make migrate-fresh run its migrate and migrate-reset. It has no seed data. Based on main after #1290 (EN-207, Programs moved out of core): docker-compose.yml, Makefile, .env.example, README.md, config/dev.nginx.conf and backend/.golangci.yml keep Programs exactly as on main and add Learning Record beside it, set up the same way (LEARNING_RECORD_DIR/LEARNING_RECORD_REF left commented in .env.example).

Screenshot(s)

No UI changes.

Additional context

Merge order: unlocked-learning-record #2, then the unlocked-platform PR (which deploys the service and routes /api/learning-record to it), then this one. A core merge restarts staging on latest, and this core no longer serves /api/learning-record, so the ingress has to send those paths to the new service first.

Tests (2026-11-06, on main at fa45ccf after #1290)

  • go build on backend, migrations and seeder with GOWORK=off (as CI does): pass. go vet ./... and go test -count=1 ./... on the backend (including tests/integration): all pass. docker compose config: valid.
  • golangci-lint could not run locally: it panics with "file requires newer Go version go1.27 (application built with go1.26)". CI runs it.
  • make dev under project en208, Learning Record built from feat/move-learning-record (LEARNING_RECORD_DIR), Programs built from GitHub main: every container up, learning-record-migrate and programs-migrate exit 0, the server starts, and /api/learning-record/entries through the proxy gives 401 when signed out.
  • make migrate-fresh: Learning Record's migrate-reset runs before core's --fresh, and the migrates and restarts after it work. It only passed after I emptied open_content_favorites and libraries in my dev database, because core's old down migrations 00031 and 00012 fail on seeded Open Content data. That is not caused by this PR.
  • Browser, as a seeded resident: the Learning Record page loads, GET /api/learning-record/entries, /draft and /facilities give 200, and adding an achievement gives POST /entries 201. With the learning_record flag turned off for the facility, entries and draft give 401 "Feature not enabled".
  • Earlier browser run (before the rebase): create, edit and delete through the UI, the learning_record_deleted account-history row, signed-out 401 and pending-reset 403; see test_results.md.

Areas to focus on: docker-compose.yml, config/dev.nginx.conf, Makefile.

Known issues: make migrate-fresh fails on a database with seeded Open Content data (see Tests); it also deletes Kratos identities.

Removed: the Learning Record module from core (now unlocked-learning-record).

Learning Record runs as its own service (unlocked-learning-record), so core
drops the module: modules/learningrecord, its registry entry, its depguard
rules, and its route tests and 19 golden files, which moved to the new repo
unchanged. The feature-flag integration test that used its route goes too;
the module router tests still cover the feature gate. No other module asked
it anything, so nothing else in core changes.

Dev: make dev builds it from GitHub (LEARNING_RECORD_REF, or your checkout in
LEARNING_RECORD_DIR) as learning-record (port 8085; Programs has 8084) and
learning-record-migrate. The dev proxy sends /api/learning-record there, and
make migrate and migrate-fresh run its migrate and migrate-reset.

Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • The development stack now builds and runs Learning Record as a standalone service and routes /api/learning-record requests to it.
    • You can configure the service to use a local checkout or select a branch.
  • Documentation
    • Added setup guidance for the Learning Record service, including its port and routing.
  • Changes
    • Learning Record is no longer hosted as a module within the core backend.

Learning Record is configured to run as a separate development service, with migration ordering and an Nginx route. The backend registry no longer includes the Learning Record module. Its in-process implementation, migration, tests, and response fixtures are removed.

Changes: Learning Record service separation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Configure and run the separate service
.env.example, docker-compose.yml, config/dev.nginx.conf, Makefile, README.md
Development configuration supports a GitHub source or local checkout, runs the Learning Record migration after core migrations, starts the API service on host port 8085, and proxies /api/learning-record requests to the service. The Makefile and README document the build and migration configuration.
Remove the in-process Learning Record module
backend/src/modules/learningrecord/*, backend/src/modules/registry/registry.go, backend/.golangci.yml
The Learning Record module, its handlers, storage, models, and schema migration are removed. The registry returns no core modules, and Learning Record-specific depguard configuration is removed.
Remove in-process module tests and fixtures
backend/src/modules/registry/registry_test.go, backend/src/modules/learningrecord/http_test.go, backend/tests/integration/facility_feature_flags_test.go, backend/tests/integration/learning_record_routes_test.go, backend/tests/integration/testdata/learning_record/*
Tests and golden fixtures for the removed Learning Record module and routes are deleted. The registry test expects no registered core modules.
Merge Risk: Moderate · up to f31ba

With default settings, the development stack's Learning Record migration step can fail, so the new service cannot start and make migrate fails. Pin or set the default source to a revision that implements the migration command before merging, or confirm the external main branch will provide it.

@corypride , nice work. This is a clean removal. Nothing in core still reaches the old module. The migration in unlocked-learning-record is byte-identical to the one core had, and the ledger name matches, so staging won't run it twice. Compose, the Makefile and nginx match how Programs is set up. I built it, ran vet and go mod tidy -diff, and ran the full test suite (integration tests included) at f31ba9e, and it all passes.

On the CodeRabbit point: I agree with your reply. That problem is gone now anyway, since unlocked-learning-record #2 is merged and v0.1.0 is out, so main has migrate and migrate-reset. Nobody needs LEARNING_RECORD_REF anymore.

Just one thing about the merge order: please don't merge this until unlocked-platform #23 is merged and staging's ingress is sending /api/learning-record to the new service. Once this merges, staging restarts on the new core, and that core no longer serves those paths.

EN-208 can close once platform #23 and this PR are merged and we've checked Learning Record on staging (load the page, add/edit/delete an entry, and confirm the account-history row shows up).
