# GET /api/saved-filters/:id Endpoint Implementation Plan
**Status:** Planning Phase
**Created:** March 21, 2026
**Priority:** Medium
**Complexity:** Low
---
## Overview
Add a **GET /api/saved-filters/:id** endpoint to retrieve a single saved filter by ID. This enables future mobile/SPA clients to fetch filter details on-demand without relying on server-side rendering.
### Key Decision Points
-**Reuse existing service method** - `GetSavedFilterByID` query already exists
-**Follow established patterns** - Match existing handler structure
-**Minimal code changes** - Only add one new handler method
-**Backward compatible** - Doesn't affect existing endpoints
-**Future-proof** - Enables mobile/SPA clients
-**Follows PROJECT_GUIDELINES.md** - Service layer, test helpers, docs
---
## Current State Analysis
### Existing Saved Filters API
**Endpoints Implemented:**
-`GET /api/saved-filters?resource_type=X` - List all filters (Line 54 in filters.go)
-`POST /api/saved-filters` - Create filter (Line 91 in filters.go)
-`PUT /api/saved-filters/:id` - Update filter (Line 160 in filters.go)
-`DELETE /api/saved-filters/:id` - Delete filter (Line 138 in filters.go)
**Database Query Already Exists:**
```go
// internal/database/queries.sql.go - Line 4480+
func (q *Queries) GetSavedFilterByID(ctx context.Context, db database.GetSavedFilterByIDParams) (database.SavedFilters, error)
```
**Service Layer Already Uses It:**
```go
// internal/services/filters.go:71-77
existing, err := s.db.GetSavedFilterByID(ctx, database.GetSavedFilterByIDParams{
ID: pgtype.UUID{Bytes: filterID, Valid: true},
UserID: pgtype.UUID{Bytes: userID, Valid: true},
})
```
### Why This Endpoint Is Needed
**Current Limitation:**
- SSR approach stores filter data in HTML (data attributes)
- Mobile apps can't access HTML data attributes
- SPA clients need direct API access to filter details
- Future clients need RESTful CRUD operations
**Solution:**
- Add GET /:id endpoint following REST conventions
- Reuse existing service/database code
- Follow established handler patterns
- Complete CRUD API for saved filters
---
## Implementation Plan
### Phase 1: Add Handler Method
#### File: `internal/handlers/filters.go`
**Location:** After `GetSavedFilters` method (around line 88)
**Change Type:** Add new handler method
**Implementation:**
```go
// GetSavedFilterByID - GET /api/saved-filters/:id
// Retrieve a single saved filter by ID
func (h *FiltersHandler) GetSavedFilterByID(c *echo.Context) error {
user := c.Get("user").(database.Users)
userUUID := uuid.UUID(user.ID.Bytes)
// Parse filter ID from URL parameter
filterID, err := uuid.Parse(c.Param("id"))
if err != nil {
return c.JSON(http.StatusBadRequest, map[string]string{
"error": "invalid filter ID",
})
}
// Use service layer (includes business logic + ownership verification)
filter, err := h.filtersService.GetSavedFilterByID(c.Request().Context(), userUUID, filterID)
if err != nil {
if err.Error() == "filter not found or access denied" {
return c.JSON(http.StatusNotFound, map[string]string{
"error": "filter not found",
})
}
return c.JSON(http.StatusInternalServerError, map[string]string{
"error": "failed to fetch filter",
})
}
// Return JSON response (JSONB handled automatically)
response := SavedFilterResponse{
ID: filterID,
Name: filter.Name,
ResourceType: filter.ResourceType,
Filters: json.RawMessage(filter.Filters), // Return JSONB as-is
CreatedAt: filter.CreatedAt.Time.Format(time.RFC3339),
UpdatedAt: filter.UpdatedAt.Time.Format(time.RFC3339),
}
return c.JSON(http.StatusOK, response)
}
```
**Notes:**
- ✅ Follows existing handler pattern (same as `GetSavedFilters`)
- ✅ Uses service layer (no direct database access)
- ✅ Returns `SavedFilterResponse` struct (already defined)
- ✅ Proper error handling (400, 404, 500)
- ✅ Ownership verification via service layer
- ✅ Matches existing authentication pattern
---
### Phase 2: Add Service Layer Method
#### File: `internal/services/filters.go`
**Location:** After `GetSavedFilters` method (around line 32)
**Change Type:** Add new service method
**Implementation:**
```go
// GetSavedFilterByID - Retrieve a single saved filter by ID
func (s *FiltersService) GetSavedFilterByID(ctx context.Context, userID uuid.UUID, filterID uuid.UUID) (database.SavedFilters, error) {
filter, err := s.db.GetSavedFilterByID(ctx, database.GetSavedFilterByIDParams{
ID: pgtype.UUID{Bytes: filterID, Valid: true},
UserID: pgtype.UUID{Bytes: userID, Valid: true},
})
if err != nil {
return database.SavedFilters{}, fmt.Errorf("filter not found or access denied: %w", err)
}
return filter, nil
}
```
**Notes:**
- ✅ Business logic: Verify filter exists and belongs to user
- ✅ Returns descriptive error for "not found or access denied"
- ✅ Reuses existing database query
- ✅ Follows existing service pattern (similar to UpdateSavedFilter:71-77)
- ✅ No new database code needed
---
### Phase 3: Register Route
#### File: `internal/router/filters.go`
**Location:** Line 12 (after existing routes)
**Change Type:** Add route registration
**Current Code:**
```go
filters.GET("", cfg.FiltersHandler.GetSavedFilters)
filters.POST("", cfg.FiltersHandler.CreateSavedFilter)
filters.PUT("/:id", cfg.FiltersHandler.UpdateSavedFilter)
filters.DELETE("/:id", cfg.FiltersHandler.DeleteSavedFilter)
```
**Updated Code:**
```go
filters.GET("", cfg.FiltersHandler.GetSavedFilters)
filters.GET("/:id", cfg.FiltersHandler.GetSavedFilterByID) // NEW
filters.POST("", cfg.FiltersHandler.CreateSavedFilter)
filters.PUT("/:id", cfg.FiltersHandler.UpdateSavedFilter)
filters.DELETE("/:id", cfg.FiltersHandler.DeleteSavedFilter)
```
**Notes:**
- ✅ Follows RESTful routing conventions
-`/:id` route must come BEFORE `""` route (already correct order)
- ✅ Matches existing route patterns
---
### Phase 4: Integration Tests
#### File: `cmd/server/tests/filters_test.go`
**Location:** After existing tests (around line 216)
**Change Type:** Add test cases
**Implementation:**
```go
t.Run("GET /api/saved-filters/:id retrieves single filter", func(t *testing.T) {
// First create a filter
reqBody := map[string]interface{}{
"name": "Test Filter",
"resource_type": "media-items",
"filters": map[string]string{"search": "test"},
}
body, _ := json.Marshal(reqBody)
createReq, _ := http.NewRequest("POST", setup.Server.URL+"/api/saved-filters", bytes.NewBuffer(body))
createReq.Header.Set("Content-Type", "application/json")
createReq.Header.Set("Authorization", "Bearer "+setup.Token)
createResp, err := client.Do(createReq)
require.NoError(t, err)
defer createResp.Body.Close()
assert.Equal(t, http.StatusCreated, createResp.StatusCode)
var createdFilter map[string]interface{}
json.NewDecoder(createResp.Body).Decode(&createdFilter)
filterID := createdFilter["id"].(string)
// Now retrieve the filter by ID
getReq, _ := http.NewRequest("GET", setup.Server.URL+"/api/saved-filters/"+filterID, nil)
getReq.Header.Set("Authorization", "Bearer "+setup.Token)
getResp, err := client.Do(getReq)
require.NoError(t, err)
defer getResp.Body.Close()
assert.Equal(t, http.StatusOK, getResp.StatusCode)
var retrievedFilter map[string]interface{}
json.NewDecoder(getResp.Body).Decode(&retrievedFilter)
assert.Equal(t, "Test Filter", retrievedFilter["name"])
assert.Equal(t, "media-items", retrievedFilter["resource_type"])
assert.Equal(t, filterID, retrievedFilter["id"])
assert.NotEmpty(t, retrievedFilter["filters"])
})
t.Run("GET /api/saved-filters/:id without auth returns 401", func(t *testing.T) {
httpReq, _ := http.NewRequest("GET", setup.Server.URL+"/api/saved-filters/550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000", nil)
resp, err := client.Do(httpReq)
require.NoError(t, err)
defer resp.Body.Close()
assert.Equal(t, http.StatusUnauthorized, resp.StatusCode)
})
t.Run("GET /api/saved-filters/:id with invalid UUID returns 400", func(t *testing.T) {
httpReq, _ := http.NewRequest("GET", setup.Server.URL+"/api/saved-filters/invalid-uuid", nil)
httpReq.Header.Set("Authorization", "Bearer "+setup.Token)
resp, err := client.Do(httpReq)
require.NoError(t, err)
defer resp.Body.Close()
assert.Equal(t, http.StatusBadRequest, resp.StatusCode)
})
t.Run("GET /api/saved-filters/:id with non-existent filter returns 404", func(t *testing.T) {
fakeID := uuid.New().String()
httpReq, _ := http.NewRequest("GET", setup.Server.URL+"/api/saved-filters/"+fakeID, nil)
httpReq.Header.Set("Authorization", "Bearer "+setup.Token)
resp, err := client.Do(httpReq)
require.NoError(t, err)
defer resp.Body.Close()
assert.Equal(t, http.StatusNotFound, resp.StatusCode)
})
t.Run("GET /api/saved-filters/:id from different user returns 404", func(t *testing.T) {
// Create filter with user 1
reqBody := map[string]interface{}{
"name": "User1 Filter",
"resource_type": "media-items",
"filters": map[string]string{"search": "test"},
}
body, _ := json.Marshal(reqBody)
createReq, _ := http.NewRequest("POST", setup.Server.URL+"/api/saved-filters", bytes.NewBuffer(body))
createReq.Header.Set("Content-Type", "application/json")
createReq.Header.Set("Authorization", "Bearer "+setup.Token)
createResp, err := client.Do(createReq)
require.NoError(t, err)
defer createResp.Body.Close()
var createdFilter map[string]interface{}
json.NewDecoder(createResp.Body).Decode(&createdFilter)
filterID := createdFilter["id"].(string)
// Try to access with user 2 (different token)
// Note: This requires setup.AdminToken or creating a second user
// For now, we'll test with a non-existent filter to verify 404 logic
httpReq, _ := http.NewRequest("GET", setup.Server.URL+"/api/saved-filters/"+filterID, nil)
httpReq.Header.Set("Authorization", "Bearer "+setup.AdminToken) // Different user
getResp, err := client.Do(httpReq)
require.NoError(t, err)
defer getResp.Body.Close()
// Should return 404 (not found or access denied)
assert.Equal(t, http.StatusNotFound, getResp.StatusCode)
})
```
**Notes:**
- ✅ Uses `setupTestServer(t)` helper (PROJECT_GUIDELINES.md compliant)
- ✅ Tests all contexts: no auth, user, different user
- ✅ Tests error cases: 400, 401, 404
- ✅ Tests success case: 200
- ✅ Follows existing test pattern in filters_test.go
- ✅ Single setup shared across subtests
---
### Phase 5: Bruno API Collection
#### File: `bruno/saved-filters/Get Saved Filter By ID.yml`
**Location:** `/home/nymusicman/Code/bookhoard/bruno/saved-filters/`
**Change Type:** Create new file
**Implementation:**
```yaml
info:
name: Get Saved Filter By ID
type: http
seq: 4
http:
method: GET
url: '{{base_url}}/api/saved-filters/{{filter_id}}'
auth: inherit
docs: |-
## Get Saved Filter By ID
Retrieves a single saved filter by its ID.
**Method:** GET
**Endpoint:** /api/saved-filters/:id
**Authentication:** Required (Bearer token)
**URL Parameters:**
- `id` (UUID, required): The unique identifier of the saved filter
- Example: "550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000"
- Must be a valid UUID format
**Response:**
Single saved filter object:
```json
{
"id": "550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000",
"name": "My Sci-Fi Books",
"resource_type": "media-items",
"filters": {
"genre_filter": "Science Fiction",
"sort": "title ASC"
},
"created_at": "2024-03-20T12:00:00Z",
"updated_at": "2024-03-20T12:00:00Z"
}
```
**Status Codes:**
- 200: Success - Returns the saved filter
- 400: Bad Request - Invalid filter ID format
- 401: Unauthorized - Invalid or missing authentication token
- 404: Not Found - Filter doesn't exist or doesn't belong to user
**Example Usage:**
```bash
# Get a specific saved filter
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
"{{base_url}}/api/saved-filters/550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000"
```
**Notes:**
- Filters are user-specific (ownership verified via JWT)
- Returns 404 if filter doesn't exist OR doesn't belong to authenticated user
- Use `GET /api/saved-filters?resource_type=X` to list all filters first
**Scenarios:**
- Get filter by ID from list response
- Load filter details for editing
- Verify filter exists before updating
- Mobile app on-demand filter loading
```
**Notes:**
- ✅ Follows existing Bruno YAML pattern
- ✅ Includes comprehensive documentation
- ✅ Uses variable placeholders (`{{filter_id}}`)
- ✅ Documents all status codes
- ✅ Includes example usage
- ✅ Placed in correct directory structure
---
### Phase 6: API Documentation
#### File: `docs/developer/api/saved-filters/index.md`
**Location:** After DELETE section (around line 106)
**Change Type:** Add new endpoint documentation
**Implementation:**
```markdown
### GET /api/saved-filters/:id
Retrieve a single saved filter by ID.
**URL Parameters:**
- `id` (UUID, required) - Filter ID to retrieve
**Response:** Single saved filter object (HTTP 200)
**Example Request:**
```bash
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \\
"http://localhost:8765/api/saved-filters/550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000"

}
```
**Error Responses:**
- 400 Bad Request - Invalid filter ID format
- 401 Unauthorized - Invalid or missing authentication token
- 404 Not Found - Filter doesn't exist or doesn't belong to user
**Use Cases:**
- Mobile apps: Fetch filter details on-demand
- SPAs: Load filter data without page reload

- Verification: Check filter exists before operations
---
**Notes:**
- ✅ Follows existing documentation pattern
- ✅ Includes example requests/responses
- ✅ Documents all error codes
- ✅ Added to existing index.md file
- ✅ Provides use cases for new endpoint
---
### Phase 7: User Documentation Update
#### File: `docs/user/library-browsing.md`
**Location:** Lines 13-15 (Loading Saved Filters section)
**Change Type:** Update documentation to reflect implemented functionality
**Current Content:**
```markdown
### Loading Saved Filters
After saving filters, you can quickly load them from the saved filters dropdown (feature coming soon). For now, saved filters persist across page refreshes.
```
**Updated Content:**
```markdown
### Loading Saved Filters
After saving filters, you can quickly load them from the saved filters dropdown:
1. Click the **📋 Saved Filters** button (next to the Save Filter button)
2. Select a filter from the dropdown list
3. The filter values are automatically applied to the form
4. Your books are instantly filtered to show matching results
**Tips:**
- Saved filters appear in the dropdown with their names
- Hover over a filter to see a delete button (🗑️)
- Click a filter name to apply it instantly
- Filters are applied without page reload (instant feedback)
### Managing Saved Filters
**Delete a Filter:**
1. Click the **📋 Saved Filters** button
2. Hover over the filter you want to delete
3. Click the **🗑️** delete button
4. Confirm deletion
5. The filter is removed from your list
```
**Additional Sections Added:**
- Managing Saved Filters (viewing, deleting)
- Common Use Cases (reading by genre, author collections, series tracking)
**Notes:**
- ✅ Removes "coming soon" language
- ✅ Provides step-by-step instructions
- ✅ Includes visual indicators (📋, 🗑️, 💾)
- ✅ Explains instant feedback (no page reload)
- ✅ Adds practical use case examples
- ✅ Maintains consistency with existing documentation style
---
### Phase 8: Frontend Integration
#### File: `web/src/bookshelf.ts`
**Location:** Lines 44-57 (loadFilter method)
**Change Type:** Update method to fetch and apply filter data
**Implementation:**
```typescript
// Load a saved filter into the form
async loadFilter(event: Event) {
const button = event.target as HTMLElement;
const filterRow = button.closest("[data-filter-id]");
if (!filterRow) return;
const filterId = filterRow?.getAttribute("data-filter-id");
if (!filterId) return;
const filterName = button.textContent?.trim() || "";
// Show loading indicator
showToast(`Loading filter: ${filterName}...`, "info");
const token = localStorage.getItem("token");
if (!token) {
showToast("Not authenticated", "error");
return;
}
try {
// Fetch filter details from API
const response = await fetch(`/api/saved-filters/${filterId}`, {
headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${token}` },
});
if (!response.ok) {
if (response.status === 404) {
showToast("Filter not found", "error");
} else {
showToast("Failed to load filter", "error");
}
return;
}
const filter = await response.json();
// Parse filters JSON (string → object)
const filterData: Record<string, string> = typeof filter.filters === 'string'
? JSON.parse(filter.filters)
: filter.filters;
// Get the hidden filter form
const filterForm = document.getElementById("filter-form") as HTMLFormElement;
if (!filterForm) {
showToast("Filter form not found", "error");
return;
}
// Clear existing filter values
filterForm.innerHTML = `
<input type="hidden" name="limit" value="50"/>
<input type="hidden" name="offset" value="0"/>
`;
// Populate form fields from filter data
Object.entries(filterData).forEach(([key, value]) => {
if (value) { // Only set non-empty values
const input = document.createElement("input");
input.type = "hidden";
input.name = key;
input.value = value;
filterForm.appendChild(input);
// Also update visible form fields if they exist
const visibleField = document.querySelector(`[name="${key}"]`) as HTMLInputElement;
if (visibleField) {
visibleField.value = value;
}
}
});
// Trigger HTMX to apply the filter
// Use the first input to trigger the change event
const firstInput = filterForm.querySelector("input");
if (firstInput) {
window.htmx.trigger(firstInput, "change");
}
showToast(`Filter applied: ${filterName}`, "success");
// Close the dropdown after applying
this.showFiltersDropdown = false;
} catch (error) {
console.error("Failed to load filter:", error);
showToast("Error loading filter", "error");
}
}
```
**Notes:**
- ✅ Maintains SSR-first: Only fetches on user interaction (click)
- ✅ Uses async/await for API call
- ✅ Handles JSON parsing (filters field may be string or object)
- ✅ Populates both hidden form and visible fields
- ✅ Triggers HTMX to apply filter (no page reload)
- ✅ Proper error handling (404, network errors)
- ✅ User feedback with toast messages
- ✅ Closes dropdown after applying filter
**How it works:**
1. User clicks saved filter button (in dropdown)
2. Alpine calls `GET /api/saved-filters/:id` to get filter JSON
3. Response format: `{"id": "...", "name": "...", "filters": {"search": "...", "author_filter": "...", ...}}`
4. Parse `filters` object and populate hidden `#filter-form` fields
5. Also update visible form fields (author, genre, etc.) for user feedback
6. Trigger HTMX `change` event on form to submit filter
7. HTMX sends request to `/api/media-items/filtered` with all form data
8. Books grid updates with filtered results
**SSR-First Compliance:**
- ✅ Initial page load: Server renders everything (no API calls)
- ✅ User interaction only: API called when user clicks filter
- ✅ No async x-init data fetching
- ✅ Progressive enhancement: Works without saved filters
- ✅ Hybrid approach: Alpine for data fetching, HTMX for form submission
---
## Testing Plan
### Test Cases
#### 1. Success Case - Retrieve Existing Filter
**Steps:**
1. Create a saved filter via POST
2. GET /api/saved-filters/:id with returned ID
3. Verify response matches created filter
**Expected:**
- ✅ HTTP 200 status
- ✅ Filter object returned
- ✅ All fields present (id, name, resource_type, filters, timestamps)
- ✅ Filters field is valid JSON
#### 2. Error Case - Invalid UUID Format
**Steps:**
1. GET /api/saved-filters/invalid-uuid
2. Check response
**Expected:**
- ✅ HTTP 400 status
- ✅ Error message: "invalid filter ID"
#### 3. Error Case - Filter Not Found
**Steps:**
1. Generate random UUID
2. GET /api/saved-filters/:random-uuid
3. Check response
**Expected:**
- ✅ HTTP 404 status
- ✅ Error message: "filter not found"
#### 4. Error Case - No Authentication
**Steps:**
1. GET /api/saved-filters/:id without Authorization header
2. Check response
**Expected:**
- ✅ HTTP 401 status
- ✅ Standard auth error response
#### 5. Security Case - Cross-User Access
**Steps:**
1. User A creates filter
2. User B tries to GET User A's filter
3. Check response
**Expected:**
- ✅ HTTP 404 status (not 403 - hide existence)
- ✅ Error message: "filter not found"
- ✅ No information leakage about other users' filters
#### 6. Integration Case - From List to Detail
**Steps:**
1. GET /api/saved-filters?resource_type=media-items
2. Pick first filter ID from list
3. GET /api/saved-filters/:id
4. Verify data consistency
**Expected:**
- ✅ IDs match
- ✅ Names match
- ✅ Filters data matches
- ✅ Timestamps match

### Step 1: Revert Handler Changes
```bash
git checkout HEAD~1 internal/handlers/filters.go
```
### Step 2: Revert Service Changes
```bash
git checkout HEAD~1 internal/services/filters.go
```
### Step 3: Revert Router Changes
```bash
git checkout HEAD~1 internal/router/filters.go
```
### Step 4: Revert Test Changes
```bash
git checkout HEAD~1 cmd/server/tests/filters_test.go
```
### Step 5: Remove New Files
```bash
rm bruno/saved-filters/Get\ Saved\ Filter\ By\ ID.yml
git checkout HEAD~1 docs/developer/api/saved-filters/index.md
```
### Step 6: Rebuild
```bash
podman compose down
podman compose build
podman compose up -d
```
---
## Potential Issues & Mitigations
### Issue 1: Route Order Conflict
**Problem:** `/:id` route must come before `""` route
**Mitigation:**
- Already correct - existing routes are in proper order
- Verified: `filters.PUT("/:id")` is after `filters.GET("")`
### Issue 2: UUID Parsing Errors
**Problem:** Malformed UUIDs cause panic
**Mitigation:**
- Handler uses `uuid.Parse()` with error checking
- Returns 400 for invalid UUID format
- Follows existing pattern in UpdateSavedFilter
### Issue 3: Service Layer Error Messages
**Problem:** Database errors leak implementation details
**Mitigation:**
- Service layer wraps errors in descriptive messages
- Returns "filter not found or access denied" (hides which)
- Handler maps service errors to HTTP status codes
### Issue 4: Test Database Cleanup
**Problem:** Tests create filters that persist
**Mitigation:**
- Uses `setupTestServer(t)` which handles cleanup
- Test server is isolated from development database
- Tests follow existing pattern (no special cleanup needed)
---
## Future Enhancements
### Phase 3 Improvements (Optional)
1. **Caching Headers**
- Add `Cache-Control: private, max-age=300` for 5-minute client caching
- Add `ETag` header for conditional requests
- Reduces unnecessary API calls
2. **Filter Validation Endpoint**
- Add `POST /api/saved-filters/:id/validate` to test filters
- Returns count of matching items without applying filter
- Useful for preview before loading
3. **Batch Filter Load**
- Add `POST /api/saved-filters/batch` with `ids: []` array
- Reduces round-trips for mobile apps
- Returns array of filter objects

## Questions & Decisions Log
### Q1: Should we add pagination to GET /api/saved-filters?
**Decision:** Not in this implementation. Current endpoint returns all filters for a resource type, which is reasonable given user-specific data and likely small counts (< 100). Can add pagination later if needed.
### Q2: Should we add filtering/sorting to GET /api/saved-filters?
**Decision:** Not in this implementation. Current implementation filters by `resource_type` query parameter which is sufficient. Can add more sophisticated filtering later if needed.
### Q3: Should we return 403 or 404 for cross-user access attempts?
**Decision:** Return 404 to hide existence of other users' filters (security best practice). Don't reveal whether a filter exists - just "not found or access denied".
### Q4: Should we add ETag/If-None-Match support?
**Decision:** Not in Phase 1. Can add in Phase 2 as a caching enhancement. For now, simple GET /:id is sufficient.
### Q5: Do we need to validate that the filter ID belongs to the resource type?
**Decision:** Not necessary. The `resource_type` is part of the filter object returned. Clients can verify it matches their expectations. Ownership verification is already handled by the service layer.
