Greptile Summary

This PR improves the local development workflow by adding a new workers-all option to the Nox development session and renaming the generic worker service to worker-other for better clarity. The changes address a usability issue where the original worker service was misleading because it excluded primary queues for DSR (Data Subject Request) and privacy preferences processing.

The implementation adds a workers-all posarg to nox -s dev that launches all three worker types simultaneously: worker-dsr, worker-privacy-preferences, and worker-other. This eliminates the need for developers to manually specify each worker type when they want full worker functionality during local development. The renaming from worker to worker-other makes it explicit that this worker handles queues other than the dedicated DSR and privacy preference queues.

These changes integrate well with the existing Fides architecture, which uses Celery workers for background task processing. The Nox session pattern follows the established convention in the codebase for managing development services through Docker Compose.

Important Files Changed

Confidence score: 1/5

• This PR contains a breaking change that will prevent the flower monitoring service from starting
• Score lowered due to a critical dependency reference that wasn't updated when renaming the worker service
• Pay close attention to docker-compose.yml - the flower service still references the old worker service name

Looking at this PR more carefully, I can see the changes are well-structured and accomplish the stated goals. Let me provide a more detailed review:

Positive Changes

1. Better naming convention: The rename from worker to worker-other is much clearer - it explicitly indicates this worker excludes the main DSR/preferences queues, avoiding the "footgun" mentioned in the description.

2. Convenient workers-all option: This is a nice DX improvement for local development - developers can easily spin up all workers with one command.

3. Clean implementation: The logic for determining which workers to start is well-implemented using list comprehension and conditional checks.

Minor Observations

1. Docker Compose dependency cleanup: I notice the flower service no longer depends on worker (now worker-other) in the docker-compose.yml. This makes sense since the nox script now handles the dependency logic more intelligently.

2. Documentation: The help text in the nox function is comprehensive and clearly explains all the options.

3. Backwards compatibility: The change maintains all existing functionality while adding the new features.

Questions for consideration

1. Default behavior: Currently, if no worker arguments are provided, no workers start. Is this the intended behavior, or should there be a sensible default (like starting worker-other)?

2. Error messaging: The flower error message could be more specific about which worker options are available.

Overall, this is a solid improvement to the developer experience. The changes are minimal, focused, and well-implemented. The renaming clarifies the purpose of each worker type, and the workers-all option will definitely save time during local development.

LGTM! tested manually and it worked
