Hi there 👋

book-store-backend's Issues

Wishlist,Orders and Coupons

Many to Many

• Wishlist (create,list,delete)
  • userId
  • title
  • manytomany(bookId)
• Order (create,list,update)
  • userId
  • address
  • couponId
  • status ("in-progress","placed","cancelled") (enum type)
  • manytomany(bookId)
• Coupon (create,list)
  • couponId
  • code
  • expiry

NOTES

• only admin can list coupons

• user can search for a particular coupon code

• Order status should be a string when outputted from controller as JSON

• Orders once placed

  • cannot add books
  • cannot change coupon
  • cannot edit address
  • can be cancelled

DB Design

  • role (user/admin)
• Category (create,list,update,delete)
  • CategoryId auto
  • CategoryName varchar(100)
  • Description varchar(500)
  • Image
  • Status boolean
  • Position int (used to sort)
  • CreatedAt datetime
• Book (create,list,update,delete)
  • BookId auto
  • CategoryId foreign key
  • Title varchar(100)
  • ISBN (long number)
  • Year int
  • Price float

Many to Many

• Wishlist (create,list,delete)
  • userId
  • title
  • manytomany(bookId)
• Order (create,list,update)
  • userId
  • address
  • couponId
  • placed boolean (denote if order been placed)
  • manytomany(bookId)
• Coupon (create,list)
  • couponId
  • code
  • expiry

NOTES

• CodeFirst database setup

Orders: adding quantity to each item

This requires additional field in the ManyToMany autogenerated table "OrderBooks".

Find a way to implement same using code first

Authentication

Setup token based authentication with user and admin roles

• User docs

Books: Setting up authorize attributes

Assign correct Auth attributes to Book and Category API

Books: Incorporate sortBy and filtering in Books/Category

• SortBy
  • position
  • createdAt
• Filters
  • status
  • title (using LIKE case insensitive) (ideally split by space , LIKE a1 or LIKE a2 ...)
  • ISBN (full)
  • categoryId
  • Author

Auth: Deactivate/activate users

• Admin only access
• Deactivate/activate accounts of users

Books: Image Upload and serving

setting up uploading for image files corresponding to each book or category

Books and Categories

book and category webAPI setup (model and controller)

• Category (create,list,update,delete)
  • CategoryId auto
  • CategoryName varchar(100)
  • Description varchar(500)
  • Image
  • Status boolean
  • Position float (used to sort)
  • CreatedAt datetime
• Book (create,list,update,delete)
  • BookId auto
  • CategoryId foreign key
  • Title varchar(100)
  • ISBN (long number)
  • Year int
  • Price float
  • Description varchar(500)
  • Position float
  • Status boolean
  • Image
  • createdAt datetime (to show latest books)

NOTES

• Position is a float instead of int to allow easy arrangement,
  Example: say books A,B,C have positions 1,2,3 respectively and admin wants to put C in between A and B. we can set C = A+B/2 = 1+2/2 = 1.5

• Should allow sorting by position in List View

• admin only create,update and delete access (Authorize with role admin Attribute)

• Should allow filtering by categoryId in books controller list View

Auth: List of users for admin

Route to List users for admin

Auth: adding extra data into /Token route return

/Token return should contain the role names of logged in user to decide on level of access
