## 🔧 Implementation Details

### File Storage Service Features

#### Core Operations
```typescript
// Upload files to GCS
await fileStorageService.storeFile(file, userId);

// Download files from GCS
const fileBuffer = await fileStorageService.getFile(gcsPath);

// Delete files from GCS
await fileStorageService.deleteFile(gcsPath);

// Check file existence
const exists = await fileStorageService.fileExists(gcsPath);

// Get file information
const fileInfo = await fileStorageService.getFileInfo(gcsPath);
```

#### Advanced Operations
```typescript
// List files with prefix filtering
const files = await fileStorageService.listFiles('uploads/user-id/', 100);

// Generate signed URLs for temporary access
const signedUrl = await fileStorageService.generateSignedUrl(gcsPath, 60);

// Copy files within GCS
await fileStorageService.copyFile(sourcePath, destinationPath);

// Move files within GCS
await fileStorageService.moveFile(sourcePath, destinationPath);

// Get storage statistics
const stats = await fileStorageService.getStorageStats('uploads/user-id/');

// Clean up old files
await fileStorageService.cleanupOldFiles('uploads/', 7);
```

### Error Handling & Retry Logic
- **Exponential backoff**: 1s, 2s, 4s delays
- **Configurable retries**: Default 3 attempts
- **Graceful failures**: Return null/false instead of throwing
- **Comprehensive logging**: All operations logged with context

### File Organization
```
bucket-name/
├── uploads/
│   ├── user-id-1/
│   │   ├── timestamp-filename1.pdf
│   │   └── timestamp-filename2.pdf
│   └── user-id-2/
│       └── timestamp-filename3.pdf
└── processed/
    ├── user-id-1/
    │   └── processed-files/
    └── user-id-2/
        └── processed-files/
```

### File Metadata
Each uploaded file includes comprehensive metadata:
```json
{
  "originalName": "document.pdf",
  "userId": "user-123",
  "uploadedAt": "2024-01-15T10:30:00Z",
  "size": "1048576"
}
```

## ✅ Permissions Setup - COMPLETED

### Status
The service account `cim-document-processor@cim-summarizer.iam.gserviceaccount.com` now has full access to the GCS bucket `cim-summarizer-uploads`.

### Verification Results
- ✅ Bucket exists and is accessible
- ✅ Can list files in bucket
- ✅ Can create files in bucket  
- ✅ Can delete files in bucket
- ✅ All GCS operations working correctly

## 🔧 Required Setup Steps

### Step 1: Verify Bucket Exists
Check if the bucket `cim-summarizer-uploads` exists in your Google Cloud project.

**Using gcloud CLI:**
```bash
gcloud storage ls gs://cim-summarizer-uploads
```

**Using Google Cloud Console:**
1. Go to https://console.cloud.google.com/storage/browser
2. Look for bucket `cim-summarizer-uploads`

### Step 2: Create Bucket (if needed)
If the bucket doesn't exist, create it:

**Using gcloud CLI:**
```bash
gcloud storage buckets create gs://cim-summarizer-uploads \
  --project=cim-summarizer \
  --location=us-central1 \
  --uniform-bucket-level-access
```

**Using Google Cloud Console:**
1. Go to https://console.cloud.google.com/storage/browser
2. Click "Create Bucket"
3. Enter bucket name: `cim-summarizer-uploads`
4. Choose location: `us-central1` (or your preferred region)
5. Choose storage class: `Standard`
6. Choose access control: `Uniform bucket-level access`
7. Click "Create"

### Step 3: Grant Service Account Permissions

**Method 1: Using Google Cloud Console**
1. Go to https://console.cloud.google.com/iam-admin/iam
2. Find the service account: `cim-document-processor@cim-summarizer.iam.gserviceaccount.com`
3. Click the edit (pencil) icon
4. Add the following roles:
   - `Storage Object Admin` (for full access)
   - `Storage Object Viewer` (for read-only access)
   - `Storage Admin` (for bucket management)
5. Click "Save"

**Method 2: Using gcloud CLI**
```bash
# Grant project-level permissions
gcloud projects add-iam-policy-binding cim-summarizer \
  --member="serviceAccount:cim-document-processor@cim-summarizer.iam.gserviceaccount.com" \
  --role="roles/storage.objectAdmin"

# Grant bucket-level permissions
gcloud storage buckets add-iam-policy-binding gs://cim-summarizer-uploads \
  --member="serviceAccount:cim-document-processor@cim-summarizer.iam.gserviceaccount.com" \
  --role="roles/storage.objectAdmin"
```

### Step 4: Verify Setup
Run the setup verification script:
```bash
npm run setup:gcs
```

### Step 5: Test Integration
Run the full integration test:
```bash
npm run test:gcs
```

## ✅ Testing Checklist - COMPLETED

All tests have been successfully completed:

- [x] **Connection Test**: GCS bucket access verification ✅
- [x] **Upload Test**: File upload to GCS ✅
- [x] **Existence Check**: File existence verification ✅
- [x] **Metadata Retrieval**: File information retrieval ✅
- [x] **Download Test**: File download and content verification ✅
- [x] **Signed URL**: Temporary access URL generation ✅
- [x] **Copy/Move**: File operations within GCS ✅
- [x] **Listing**: File listing with prefix filtering ✅
- [x] **Statistics**: Storage statistics calculation ✅
- [x] **Cleanup**: Test file removal ✅

## 🚀 Next Steps After Setup

### 1. Update Database Schema
If your database stores file paths, update them to use GCS paths instead of local paths.

### 2. Update Application Code
Ensure all file operations use the new GCS service instead of local file system.

### 3. Migration Script
Create a migration script to move existing local files to GCS (if any).

### 4. Monitoring Setup
Set up monitoring for:
- Upload/download success rates
- Storage usage
- Error rates
- Performance metrics

### 5. Backup Strategy
Implement backup strategy for GCS files if needed.
