Requires ocean.js v9.xx (oceanprotocol/ocean.js#2133 or later)

Remove serviceEndpoints from the root announcement; fix :job route param

Context

ocean.js PR #2133 ("Hardcode http
paths") removes the SDK's dynamic endpoint-discovery step: previously every HttpProvider
call did a GET / on the node first to read a serviceEndpoints map and look up the right
method/path, before making the real request. That PR hardcodes every path directly in the
SDK instead — partly for performance, partly because discovery was silently routing two
calls to the wrong path (serviceGetStreamableLogs, Aquarius querySearch).

Since ocean.js (the primary consumer) no longer reads serviceEndpoints, ocean-node has no
reason to keep computing and exposing it: GET / was running a full introspection pass over
the Express router stack on every hit just to build a map nothing external reads anymore.
Separately, while touching this area, the job-status route parameter was named :job while
every other reference to a job id in this codebase — getJobsPool(jobId), the compute/escrow
query params, the Postman collection's {{jobId}} — uses jobId. Fixed for consistency.
Express route param names are internal only, so this is a no-op on the wire for any caller.

Changes

Remove serviceEndpoints from GET /

  • src/components/httpRoutes/rootEndpoint.ts — dropped the serviceEndpoints: getAllServiceEndpoints() field from the response and its now-unused import. This also
    removes a latent circular import (rootEndpoint.tsindex.tsrootEndpoint.ts).
  • src/components/httpRoutes/index.ts — deleted getAllServiceEndpoints() and the
    routeUtils.js import; router setup and all httpRoutes.use(...) mounting untouched.
  • src/components/httpRoutes/routeUtils.ts — deleted entirely (routesNames,
    allRoutesMapping, findPathName, addMapping, the regex-based split() helper). It had
    no other consumers, and had already drifted from the real routes (e.g. it still mapped a
    /getOceanPeers route that doesn't exist).
  • docs/Ocean Node.postman_collection.json — "Get Node Info" request description no longer
    lists serviceEndpoints as a response field.

Keep the k6 perf scripts working

  • src/test/performance/util.jsstepRootEndpoint() used to build its target list from
    data.serviceEndpoints on the root response. Replaced with a hardcoded SERVICE_ENDPOINTS
    list (56 entries) built directly from the routes actually mounted in
    httpRoutes/index.ts, keeping a plain GET / 200 health check before looping instead of
    using it for discovery.

Fix the :job route param

  • src/components/httpRoutes/jobs.ts — renamed ${SERVICES_API_BASE_PATH}/jobs/:job to
    .../jobs/:jobId, and req.params.job to req.params.jobId, matching
    indexer.getJobsPool(jobId) and the Postman collection's existing {{jobId}} convention.

Remove the now-dead RouteOptions type

  • src/@types/express.ts — deleted. Its only export, RouteOptions, existed solely for the
    deleted routeUtils.ts; grepped src/ for @types/express/RouteOptions and confirmed
    zero remaining importers.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The root endpoint no longer returns serviceEndpoints. Route discovery utilities were removed, the jobs parameter was renamed to jobId, and performance tests now use a static endpoint catalog after validating the root health check.

Node endpoint contract

Layer / File(s) Summary
Remove root endpoint discovery
src/components/httpRoutes/index.ts, src/components/httpRoutes/rootEndpoint.ts, src/components/httpRoutes/routeUtils.ts, src/@types/express.ts, docs/Ocean Node.postman_collection.json
Removed route discovery utilities, the RouteOptions interface, and the serviceEndpoints root response field. Updated the Postman description.
Rename job route parameter
src/components/httpRoutes/jobs.ts
Changed the route parameter from job to jobId and passed it to getJobsPool.
Use static performance endpoints
src/test/performance/util.js
The root request now acts as a health check. The test stops on a non-200 response and uses a static endpoint catalog for subsequent requests.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to ffc2f

The PR removes endpoint discovery and replaces it with a static performance-route catalog, but the current path handling sends most checks to / and truncates parameterized routes, producing false successful performance results. The PR is not merge-ready until the route-path handling is corrected.

AI automated code review (Gemini 3).

Overall risk: low

Summary:
This PR successfully removes the dynamic serviceEndpoints field from the root endpoint. It deletes the complex and computationally expensive route mapping logic, which improves security (by not exposing the entire API topology dynamically) and performance of the root endpoint. The performance tests were correctly updated to use a static list of endpoints. Additionally, the route parameter in jobs.ts was standardized from :job to :jobId.

Comments:
• [INFO][security] Good removal of the getAllServiceEndpoints() call. Removing dynamic API route exposure improves security by preventing automated API topology discovery, and avoids traversing the Express router stack on every request to /.
• [INFO][style] Standardizing the path parameter from :job to :jobId makes the API parameter naming more precise and consistent.
• [INFO][style] Using a static list of endpoints for performance testing is a good tradeoff here to maintain test coverage without relying on the application dynamically leaking its routes. The implementation correctly preserves the behavior of testing all known API boundaries.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

The static endpoint catalog is not being exercised as intended.

targetEndpoint() uses path.indexOf(':') >= -1, which is true for every path. Paths without parameters therefore become /, while parameterized paths are truncated to invalid prefixes such as /log/. The performance loop can consequently report success without calling the listed endpoints. Guard the parameter stripping with a check for an actual colon, and provide valid values for route parameters rather than truncating them.

test_system is failing because it's using ocean.js v8.xx, which is looking for serviceEndpoints
