hikkaba's Issues

Disable LazyLoadingProxies

It can degrade the performance of an application substantially

Implement a ban system

Setup CI/CD

Azure App Service

Implement moderation functions

Add integration tests

Add a setup script

Add load tests

Add Gatling load tests to the project.

Add an API

Eliminate redundant SQL queries

Read categories once per request

Implement an administration panel

Add EventIdentifiers to logs

Captcha validation error

Sometimes DNTCaptcha produces false positive validation error. Probably the time zone difference between client and server is the source of the problem.

Further investigation is needed.

Temporary workaround: options.UseSessionStorageProvider() (this will not work in a distributed system)

Add more unit tests

Implement the repository pattern

Split data access layer and service layer

Add the storage engine configuration option
