Add MetadataStore abstract base class and RedisMetadataStore implementation to decouple metadata operations from the Redis client directly. Changes: - Add store.py with MetadataStore ABC defining get/set/exists/delete/ping/close - Add RedisMetadataStore wrapping redis.asyncio.Redis with backward compat .client property - Update app.py lifespan to create RedisMetadataStore, expose both metadata_store and redis_client - Update users.py to use MetadataStore interface instead of raw redis.Redis - Update tests to use MockMetadataStore (in-memory dict-backed implementation) This enables future backend flexibility (e.g., etcd, in-memory) and simplifies testing without Redis mocking. Closes vllm-project#1642

Pull request overview
This PR introduces a MetadataStore abstraction to decouple the metadata service from direct Redis client usage, improving testability and enabling future backend flexibility (per #1642).
Changes:
- Added
MetadataStoreABC andRedisMetadataStoreimplementation. - Updated metadata app startup/shutdown and readiness checks to use
metadata_store(withredis_clientkept for backward compatibility). - Updated Users CRUD API and its tests to use the
MetadataStoreinterface and an in-memory mock store.

lifespan() unconditionally creates and assigns a new RedisMetadataStore to app.state.metadata_store (and resets app.state.redis_client). This makes it hard to inject a mock/in-memory store for tests or alternative bootstrapping code, because any pre-set metadata_store will be overwritten when lifespan runs. Consider initializing the store only if it isn't already present (or allowing an override via args/env), so callers/tests can provide their own store instance.

RedisMetadataStore.ping() swallows all exceptions and returns False without logging. This makes failures harder to diagnose and (combined with callers that don't check the return value) can silently mask outages. Consider either (a) logging the exception and returning False, with callers explicitly checking the result, or (b) letting exceptions propagate and treating failures via exception handling.

The module docstring claims "MetadataStore abstraction unit tests", but this file only defines a MockMetadataStore helper and exercises the Users API. Consider updating the stated test coverage to match what’s actually covered here (or add dedicated unit tests for MetadataStore implementations elsewhere).

app_with_store sets app.state.metadata_store = mock_store, but build_app() attaches the lifespan handler which currently overwrites app.state.metadata_store on startup. If the test client triggers lifespan events, the real RedisMetadataStore will replace this mock and the tests may unexpectedly hit a real Redis instance. Consider adjusting lifespan() to respect a pre-configured metadata_store, or disabling lifespan/startup in these tests so the injected mock is actually used.

readiness_check awaits metadata_store.ping() but ignores its boolean result. With the current RedisMetadataStore.ping() implementation returning False on failure (instead of raising), /readyz can incorrectly report "ready" even when the backend is unhealthy. Consider checking the returned value and returning 503 when it is falsy (or change ping() to raise on failure and keep this handler exception-based).

Code Review
This pull request introduces a MetadataStore abstraction layer, successfully decoupling the metadata service from direct Redis client usage. While this architectural improvement is well-implemented across users.py and app.py, and significantly enhances the test suite in test_users_api.py with a robust MockMetadataStore, a critical security vulnerability has been identified. The newly introduced or modified User CRUD API endpoints in users.py lack essential access control checks. This oversight allows for unauthorized viewing and modification of user metadata, which could be exploited to bypass rate limits or disrupt service for other users. It is strongly recommended to implement authentication and authorization before deploying these changes to a production environment.
Summary
