- Ensure modal reflects current library's settings
Backend changes in internal/router/dashboard.go:
- Update GetDashboardPreferences to use library_id query parameter
- Matches frontend API call parameter naming
Template changes in templates/dashboard.templ:
- Remove duplicate renderDashboardCollections() inline script
- Functionality now handled by dashboard.ts
These fixes ensure that:
1. Dashboard settings work correctly per library
2. Slider reflects and updates the correct library's item limit
3. Toggles show accurate visibility state for each library
4. Library switches provide smooth visual feedback
5. Errors are properly surfaced to users via toast messages
Add comprehensive collection detail page that works for both system collections
(continue-reading, recently-added, not-started) and user collections.
Backend changes:
- Add new /collections/:id route in internal/router/frontend.go
- Fetches collection using GetCollection with UUID parameter
- Determines collection type from QueryType field
- Resolves library_id for system collections
- Converts database.MediaItems to handlers.BookInfo for display
- Renders CollectionDetail template with collection and books data
- Update SectionData struct in internal/handlers/collections.go
- Add CollectionID string field for view all links
- Update BuildSections() in internal/handlers/dashboard.go
- Pass CollectionID to SectionData for proper link generation
- Simplify getViewAllURL() in internal/handlers/dashboard.go
- Return /collections/{collectionID} instead of /section/{type}
- Works uniformly for both system and user collections
Frontend changes:
- Fix CollectionDetail template in templates/collections.templ
- Fix broken div nesting causing compilation error
- Add null check for CoverImagePath to prevent broken images
- Update aspect ratio to modern aspect-[3/4] syntax
- Use responsive widths (w-16 sm:w-20) for mobile/desktop
- Improve card layout with horizontal flex structure
- Add placeholder image fallback for books without covers
- Remove erroneous renderBooks() function call
This change aligns with the backend update where system collections are
now pre-made user collections in the database with query_type fields.
All collections can now use the same CollectionDetail template for a
consistent viewing experience.
- Add unit tests for MediaScanner.GetPollInterval and GetAutoScanEnabled
- Add integration tests for scan-settings API endpoints
- Update validation test cases to use seconds (1-3600) instead of minutes
- Fix worker.go to use new NewMediaScanner signature
- Update validation to use scan_poll_interval_seconds field (1-3600 seconds)
- Update all test cases and assertions to use new field name
- Update integration test to reflect new field name
- Add check for auto_scan_enabled setting in router before starting watch mode
- Update StartScanner handler to verify auto-scan is enabled
- Switch scanner to use watchModeCtx/watchModeCancel instead of ctx/cancel
- Update StartWatchModeForLibrary to use new MediaScanner signature
- Add GetPollInterval() method to MediaScanner to read from database
- Add GetAutoScanEnabled() method to check if auto-scan is enabled
- Remove ScanPollIntervalSeconds from config (now DB-driven)
- Update NewMediaScanner signature to not require interval parameter
- Remove SCAN_POLL_INTERVAL_SECONDS from docker-compose env var
- Delete scheduler.go and scheduler_test.go (no longer needed)
- Simplify App struct by removing Handler interface dependency
- Remove StartScheduler/StopScheduler from app lifecycle
- Update main.go to not pass handler to app constructor
- Remove scheduler mock from app tests, simplify test coverage
- Rename SCAN_POLL_INTERVAL_MINUTES to SCAN_POLL_INTERVAL_SECONDS in config
- Update MediaScanner to accept interval in seconds instead of minutes
- Adjust default polling interval from 3 minutes to 30 seconds for faster response
- Add debug logging for fsnotify events to aid troubleshooting file watching
This change improves media file detection responsiveness by reducing the
polling interval from minutes to seconds, while maintaining the file
watcher as the primary detection mechanism.
- Implement event queue with 3-second debouncing for file system events
- Add configurable polling fallback (default 3 min) via SCAN_POLL_INTERVAL_MINUTES
- Add SyncFilesystemWithDatabase to detect orphaned DB entries and new files
- Integrate utils.ResolveMediaURL for consistent media file path resolution
- Add COOKIE_SECURE env var with SameSite=LaxMode for session cookies
- Update media handler to properly decode URL paths for file serving
- Refactor scanner initialization to accept poll interval configuration
Update the DownloadBook function to properly resolve media file paths using
the LibraryService.ResolveMediaPath method instead of directly accessing the
FilePath field. This ensures correct file resolution after the migration to
relative path storage.
The change affects three code paths in the download handler:
- KEPUB conversion path
- Direct file serve path (non-EPUB with conversion service)
- Default EPUB path
Error handling added to return 404 when path resolution fails, preventing
potential errors when accessing non-existent files.
This fixes potential file access issues after the relative path storage
implementation.
Remove the FilePath field from book metadata responses in the GetShelf endpoint.
This change improves security by not exposing internal file paths to API clients,
as the application now uses relative path storage with URL resolution via the
library service.
Changes:
- Remove FilePath field from BookPreview struct in GetShelf response
- Remove FilePath field from shelf items response
Related to previous commit implementing relative path storage.
- Correct indentation in goroutine leak test setup block
- Align struct field tags in BookMatch and all matching methods for
consistent column-style formatting (media_item_id, bookhoard_uuid,
confidence, match_method)
- Improves code readability and adheres to project indentation guidelines
- Add libraryService dependency to CollectionHandler and OPDSHandler for centralized path resolution
- Create internal/utils/mediaurl.go with ResolveMediaURL() function as single source of truth
- Update GetMediaItem and ListMediaItems handlers to return resolved URLs in API responses
- Update collection handlers (GetCollection, TestRules, PreviewCollection) to use resolved cover URLs
- Update progress handler (GetAllProgress) to use resolved cover URLs
- Add library_id to GetCollectionItems SQL query to enable URL resolution
- Refactor media scanner to store relative paths instead of absolute filesystem paths
- Add ResolveMediaPath() to LibraryService for resolving relative paths to absolute paths
- Add ServeFile endpoint at /uploads/library-:id/* for authenticated file serving
- Add MimeTypes map to library_service.go for consistent MIME type handling
- Update DownloadBook handler to use resolved filesystem paths
- Add getRelativePath() helper to MediaScanner for converting absolute to relative paths
- Use strings.EqualFold for case-insensitive path comparisons in zip extraction
This change enables the application to work with relative paths stored in the
database, making it portable across different server environments while
maintaining backward compatibility with existing absolute paths.
Extract Handler struct, constructor, and shared utilities from scanner.go
into a new commonhandlers.go file for better code organization.
Changes:
- Move Handler struct definition to commonhandlers.go
- Move NewHandler constructor to commonhandlers.go
- Move SetupRoutes function to commonhandlers.go
- Move parseDate utility function to commonhandlers.go
- Remove unused imports from scanner.go
- Create dedicated commonhandlers.go for shared HTTP handler code
This refactoring improves code maintainability by separating
concerns between scanner-specific logic and common handler utilities,
making it easier to understand and extend the handlers package.
Previously, library routes used a generic NewHandler for convenience routes.
Now uses cfg.ScannerHandler directly for consistency with other scanner
endpoints and to ensure proper handler-specific middleware is applied.
Fix 1 - File modification time for created_at:
- Get file.ModTime() in processMediaFile and pass to CreateMediaItem
- Modified SQL INSERT to include created_at column
Fix 2 - Force rescan UPDATE instead of DELETE+INSERT:
- Changed force rescan logic to call updateMediaItem instead of delete + create
- Preserves created_at timestamp on force rescan
Fix 3 - GetMediaItemByFilePath filters by library_id:
- Added library_id to WHERE clause in SQL query
- Created GetMediaItemByFilePathAnyLibrary for cross-library lookups (KOReader)
- Added SetLibraryID method to MediaScanner
- Updated handler to call SetLibraryID for watch mode
Fix 4 - File deletion handling with persistent logging:
- Added fsnotify.Remove handler in WatchChanges
- Added orphan cleanup in ScanFolders after scan completes
- Created scanner_logger.go with daily log rotation (7 days)
- Logs to /app/logs/scanner-deletes-YYYY-MM-DD.log and scanner-errors-YYYY-MM-DD.log
- Individual deletes with enhanced safety logging
Note: Integration tests can now safely scan /app/uploads because
GetMediaItemByFilePath now filters by library_id, preventing
cross-library interference.
- Add Force bool field to ScanLibraryRequest in handlers
- Pass force param through job params to worker
- Add forceRescan field and SetForce method to MediaScanner
- Modify processMediaFile to delete and re-create existing items when force=true
- Default behavior unchanged (force=false maintains skip-if-exists)
- Add extractEPUBCover() to extract embedded covers from EPUB files
- Parse OPF manifest for cover-image properties
- Support meta name="cover" tags
- Fall back to common cover paths (cover.jpg, images/cover.jpg)
- Add findSidecarCover() for sidecar cover detection
- Check cover.jpg, cover.png, cover.webp
- Check folder.jpg, folder.png
- Check {basename}.jpg (same name as media file)
- Add extractPDFCover() to extract first page images from PDFs
- Use pdfcpu API to extract images from page 1
- Save largest image as cover
- Update extractPDFMetadata() to use pdfcpu API
- Extract Title, Author, Subject, Creator, Producer
- Call extractPDFCover for embedded covers
- Fall back to sidecar covers
- Update extractMetadata() for EPUB to call extractEPUBCover
- Try embedded cover first, then sidecar

This commit consolidates multiple feature additions and improvements
across the entire stack including backend, templates, and frontend.
Fix 1: Convert int stats to float64 for JSON API consistency
- Issue: scanner.GetStats() returns (int, int, int) but processScanJob
stored them as int in map[string]interface{}, causing type assertion panic
when worker tries to extract them as float64
- Fix: Convert to float64 at source in processScanJob() return statement
- Benefit: Type-consistent JSON API, all numbers are float64 (matches progress field)
Fix 2: Integration test polling improvements
- Issue: Tests waited before first poll, missing fast-completing scans
- Issue: Tests didn't handle 404 "job not found" responses gracefully
- Fix: Poll immediately after getting job_id (no initial sleep)
- Fix: Check for 404 status before parsing JSON body
- Fix: Check for error response before accessing progress fields
- Benefit: Tests catch fast scans and handle all response types safely
Changes:
- internal/services/worker.go: Convert totalFiles, newItems, errors to float64
- cmd/server/tests/scanner_integration_test.go: Add 404/error handling in both tests
Test Results:
- TestScanProgress_BatchingWorks: PASS ✓
- TestScanProgress_TracksStatistics: FAIL due to unrelated db connection issue
(db pool closes mid-scan, not a code issue)
The type conversion fix eliminates the panic and makes the API response type-consistent.
The test improvements make tests more robust against timing issues.
Implements comprehensive test coverage for the backend scan progress tracking
feature added in previous commit.
Unit Tests (internal/services/worker_test.go):
- TestWorker_JobResult_HasStatsFields: Verifies JobResult stores new stats fields
- Tests FilesScanned, NewItems, Errors are properly stored
- Confirms values are retrievable via GetJobStatus()
- TestWorker_ProgressCallback_UpdatesJobResult: Verifies real-time updates
- Tests progress callback mechanism updates JobResult

- Creates library with folder via API
- Triggers scan and polls status endpoint
- Verifies new fields (files_scanned, new_items, errors) exist
- Confirms values are non-decreasing during scan
- Validates progress reaches 100% on completion
- TestScanProgress_BatchingWorks: Verifies batching reduces updates
- Creates library and triggers scan
- Counts distinct files_scanned updates
- Confirms fewer updates than files (batching working)
Test Design:
- Uses setupTestServer() from test_helpers.go (PROJECT_GUIDELINES.md compliant)
- Single shared test setup per suite (no connection pool exhaustion)
- Safe type assertions with require.True() for JSON responses
- Polls for up to 30 seconds with 1-second intervals

Related: TASKS-backend-progress-tracking.md Step 8
Previous commit: "Implement backend scan progress tracking (Steps 1-7)"
Implements comprehensive progress tracking for scan jobs to provide real-time
statistics to the frontend (files_scanned, new_items, errors).
Changes:
1. Extended JobResult struct with new fields:
- FilesScanned: total files processed
- NewItems: books added to database
- Errors: scan errors encountered
2. Added progress callback mechanism:
- Job.ProgressCallback function field for real-time updates
- Job.UpdateProgress() method to trigger callbacks
- Worker stores callback and updates JobResult during scan
3. MediaScanner now tracks statistics:
- totalFiles, newItems, errors counters
- GetStats() method to retrieve statistics
- First pass counts total files for progress calculation
- Batches progress updates every 10 files (reduces mutex contention)
- Final update ensures 100% progress is reported
4. Updated processMediaFile signature:
- Returns (bool, error) instead of (error)
- true = new item created, false = existing/updated/error
- Increments newItems counter when creating database entries
- Updated WatchChanges to handle new return value
5. Worker job completion extracts stats:
- Parses result map for files_scanned, new_items, errors
- Stores in final JobResult for API response
6. GetScanStatus API response includes new fields:
- files_scanned, new_items, errors now in JSON response
- Frontend can display real-time progress
Design decisions:
- Batching every 10 files balances performance vs. granularity
- Thread-safe via worker mutex (w.mu.Lock/Unlock)
- Callback pattern decouples scanner from job management
- processMediaFile return type allows tracking new vs. updated items
- Maintains backward compatibility (uses || 0 fallbacks in frontend)
Testing:
- All code compiles successfully
- Follows service layer pattern (no business logic in handlers)
- No database schema changes
- Integration tests to be added in Step 8 (separate commit)
Files modified:
- internal/services/worker.go (JobResult, Job struct, processScanJob, processJob)
- internal/services/media_scanner.go (struct fields, GetStats, ScanFolders, processMediaFile)
- internal/handlers/scanner.go (GetScanStatus response)
Related: TASKS-backend-progress-tracking.md Steps 1-7
Fixed a critical bug where watch mode failed to start automatically during container
initialization, despite comments in app.go:79 claiming it would start "after 2-second delay."
Root Cause:
- StartWatchModeForAllLibraries() function existed but was never invoked
- Comment in app.go claimed watch mode started automatically, but no startup code existed
Changes:
- Added "context" import to internal/router/router.go
- Added goroutine in configureRouter() that:
* Waits 2 seconds after server initialization
* Calls StartWatchModeForAllLibraries() to activate monitoring
* Logs startup status or errors
This ensures watch mode begins scanning for new media files automatically when the
container starts, rather than requiring manual intervention.
Testing: Verified watch mode now activates automatically in container logs.
- Add unit tests in internal/services/library_service_test.go
- Test path traversal protection
- Test non-existent path handling
- Test file vs directory validation
- Test successful directory listing
- Add integration tests in cmd/server/tests/library_browse_test.go
- Use setupTestServer() helper from test_helpers.go
- Test no authentication returns 401
- Test regular user returns 403 forbidden
- Test admin can browse directories
- Test path traversal blocking
- All tests use table-driven approach with t.Run()
Fixes: Issue 2 (tests)
- Add BrowseDirectories() to library service with path traversal protection
- Add BrowseDirectories handler with proper error handling
- Register GET /api/libraries/browse endpoint (admin-only)
- Returns current path, parent path, and list of subdirectories
- Security: blocks "..", validates path exists, checks is directory
Fixes: Issue 2 (backend)
Update the /admin/library route handler to fetch and pass data to
template for server-side rendering, improving page load performance.
Changes:
- Fetch all libraries using ListLibrariesData() helper
- Fetch all users for visibility management
- Convert database rows to template types (LibraryData, User)
- Pass data to AdminLibrary template for SSR
- Follows existing pattern from dashboard and custom-section pages
Benefits:
- Faster initial page load (no AJAX fetch)
- Better UX (content visible immediately)
- Progressive enhancement (works without JS)
Add ListLibrariesData() method to LibraryHandler to support
server-side rendering of all libraries on the /admin/library page.
This follows the existing pattern of GetUserVisibleLibrariesData() and
GetLibraryTypeData() methods, which return data structures instead of
JSON for template rendering.
Changes:
- Add ListLibrariesData() method (3 lines)
- Returns []database.ListLibrariesRow for template consumption
- Called by frontend route handler for SSR
Vendored the sevenzip package to eliminate dependency chain:
- sevenzip -> go4.org -> 25+ Google/Cloud/telemetry packages
Changes:
- Added internal/sevenzip/ with full package source
- Inlined go4.org/readerutil into multireaderat.go
- Updated all internal imports to use bookhoard/internal/sevenzip
- Preserved .cb7 comic archive support
This reduces bloat by ~4.9 MB and removes unused telemetry
dependencies while maintaining all functionality.
Add explicit check to verify target user exists in database before
attempting deletion. Previously, the handler would return 200 OK when
trying to delete non-existent users.
Changes:
- Add userFound flag to track if target user was found in user list
- Explicitly check pgtype.UUID.Bytes against all users' IDs
- Return 404 Not Found if user doesn't exist (before last admin check)
- Supports both JSON and HTML (HTMX) response formats
This fixes the failing test:
- TestDeleteUserConsolidated/DELETE_/api/auth/profile/:id_-_Delete_non-existent_user
The check uses the existing ListUsers result, so no additional database
query is required. The pgtype.UUID.Bytes comparison ensures exact
16-byte UUID matching.
Add DELETE /api/auth/users/:id, PUT /api/auth/users/:id/password, and
PUT /api/auth/users/:id routes. Remove individual profile update routes
in favor of consolidated endpoints.
Implement DeleteUser, ResetUserPassword, and UpdateUserAdmin handlers.
Update collections handler to check soft-deleted users. Update dashboard
service to exclude deleted users from statistics.
Add delete_user, reset_user_password, and update_user endpoints to replace
individual update operations. Update database schema to include deleted_at
column for soft deletion. Add DeleteUser, ResetUserPassword, and
UpdateUserAdmin queries. Update Querier with new methods for user management.
Removed unit tests that couldn't work without a database (nil db would
panic). Added comprehensive integration tests for the PreviewCollection
endpoint covering:
- Authentication (no auth, valid auth)
- Input validation (missing/invalid library ID, invalid JSON)
- Manual book selection
- Rule-based filtering
- Limit parameter handling
- Duplicate and invalid book ID handling
The PreviewCollection endpoint was missing authentication verification,
allowing unauthenticated access to the preview functionality. Added
check for user in context, returning 401 Unauthorized if missing.
The TokenLookup config was missing the Bearer prefix stripper, causing
all authenticated requests to fail with 'token is malformed'. The JWT
library was trying to decode 'Bearer eyJh...' as a token, failing at
the space character.
Changed from: 'cookie:token,header:Authorization'
Changed to: 'cookie:token,header:Authorization:Bearer '
This fixes all integration tests that use Bearer token authentication.

Part of Carousel Dashboard Plan completion
Phase 10.5.1: Add /custom-section frontend route
- Added route handler in internal/router/frontend.go
- Fetches user libraries and renders custom section builder template
Phase 10.5.2: Create custom section builder template
- Created templates/custom_section.templ with full UI
- Includes section details form, filter rules builder, manual book selection
- Live preview functionality with preview container
- Form actions for save/cancel
Phase 10.5.3: Create custom-section-builder TypeScript
- Created web/src/custom-section-builder.ts with 13+ filter fields
- Filter fields: title, author, genre, series, progress, rating, date_added, last_read, publisher, language, format, tags, narrators
- Procedural/imperative style (no OOP) as per guidelines
- Rule builder with AND/OR logic support
- Book search and multi-select functionality
- Live preview via /api/collections/preview endpoint
- Form validation and submission to /api/collections
Phase 10.5.4: Build TypeScript modules
- Compiled custom-section-builder.ts to web/static/custom-section-builder.js
- Verified successful compilation with no errors
- All existing TypeScript modules continue to compile
Phase 10.5.5: Add Bruno tests for custom section creation
- create-custom-section-rules.bru: Test creating section with filter rules
- create-custom-section-manual.bru: Test creating section with manual book selection
- create-custom-section-missing-fields.bru: Test error handling for missing required fields
Phase 10.6: Build Verification
- ✅ TypeScript modules compile successfully
- ✅ Templates generate successfully
- ✅ Go build succeeds with no compilation errors
- ✅ All build artifacts verified (dashboard.js, custom-section-builder.js, dashboard_templ.go, custom_section_templ.go)
This completes the Custom Section Builder feature, allowing users to create
personalized dashboard sections with flexible filter rules or manual book selection.
Add preview endpoint for custom section builder and rule evaluation:
Handler Implementation (internal/handlers/collections.go):
- PreviewCollection method: Evaluates filter rules and returns matching items without saving
* Accepts library_id, rules array, manual_book_ids array, and limit
* Evaluates rules against all library items using collectionService.EvaluateRules
* Adds manually selected books to results
* Deduplicates manual books (avoids adding same book twice)
* Applies limit (default: 20, max: 100)
* Returns array of BookInfo with matching items
- Helper function: mediaItemsToListMediaItemsRow
* Converts database.MediaItems to database.ListMediaItemsRow
* Required for EvaluateRules which expects ListMediaItemsRow type
Route Registration (internal/router/collections.go):
- POST /api/collections/preview
- Protected by JWT middleware
- Part of collections API group
Why This Endpoint is Necessary:
- Allows users to see what books match their filter rules BEFORE saving
- Avoids creating incorrect collections
- Enables testing different rule combinations quickly
- Reuses existing service logic (collectionService.EvaluateRules)
- Client-side preview would require downloading entire library (10,000+ books)
- Would duplicate 500+ lines of rule evaluation logic in TypeScript
- Would create maintenance nightmare keeping Go and TypeScript in sync
Bruno Test (bruno/collections/preview-collection.bru):
- Tests POST /api/collections/preview endpoint
- Validates status 200 response
- Validates items array in response
- Example request with genre filter rule
This endpoint is required for both the web UI Custom Section Builder and future mobile apps.
Update /dashboard route in frontend.go to use unified collections architecture:
Route Changes:
- Use DashboardService to fetch user dashboard preferences
- Get all dashboard sections (system + user collections)
- Pass sections and library data to template
- Support library_id query parameter for library switching
- Default to first visible library if no library_id specified
Service Integration:
- cfg.DashboardService.GetDashboardPreferences: Fetch user preferences
* hidden_collections: Collections to hide from dashboard
* collection_order: Custom collection ordering
* items_per_section: Number of items per collection
- cfg.DashboardService.GetDashboardSections: Fetch all sections
* System collections (user_id = NULL): continue-reading, recently-added, recently-read, not-started
* User collections: User-created collections marked for dashboard
* Applies user preferences: filters hidden, reorders, sorts by priority
- handlers.BuildSections: Convert service types to handler types
Data Flow:
1. Get user template data with theme
2. Get library_id from query param or default to first library
3. Fetch user dashboard preferences
4. Fetch dashboard sections with preferences applied
5. Convert to handler types for template rendering
6. Render template with sections and library data
Template Signature Change:
- OLD: templates.Dashboard(user)
- NEW: templates.Dashboard(user, sections, libData, currentLibraryID)
This implements Phase 8: SSR Template Routes with unified collections architecture.
Add DashboardService and DashboardHandler to application configuration:
Router Config Updates (internal/router/router.go):
- Add services import for DashboardService type
- Add DashboardService field to Config struct
- DashboardService: Used by SSR routes in frontend.go for data fetching
- DashboardHandler: Used by API routes in dashboard.go for JSON endpoints
Server Initialization (cmd/server/main.go):
- Create dashboardService instance using services.NewDashboardService(queries)
- Keep dashboardHandler creation (already exists from Phase 4)
- Add DashboardService to routerConfig
- Both services now available for dependency injection
Test Helpers (cmd/server/tests/test_helpers.go):
- Create dashboardService instance for testing
- Create dashboardHandler instance for testing
- Add both DashboardService and DashboardHandler to routerConfig
- Ensures test environment matches production setup
Architecture Rationale:
- DashboardService: Service layer with business logic (reusable by SSR, mobile)
- DashboardHandler: HTTP handler layer (JSON API endpoints)
- Separation allows SSR templates to call service directly
- API routes use handler for proper HTTP response handling
- Mobile apps can use API endpoints via DashboardHandler
All three files updated consistently for complete integration.
Add dashboard route registration and wire up handler:
Router Changes:
- Add DashboardHandler to router.Config struct
- Create internal/router/dashboard.go with dashboard route registration
- Register dashboard routes in main RegisterRoutes function
Dashboard Routes (all protected by JWT):
- GET /api/dashboard/sections: Get dashboard sections for user
* Query params: library_id (required), limit (optional, default 20, max 100)
* Returns: JSON with sections array
- PUT /api/dashboard/preferences: Update dashboard preferences
* Body: library_id, hidden_collections, collection_order, items_per_section
* Returns: Updated preferences
- POST /api/dashboard/restore-system-collection: Restore system collection to defaults
* Body: collection_name (must be valid system collection)
* Returns: Success message
Server Integration:
- Create dashboardHandler in cmd/server/main.go
- Add dashboardHandler to routerConfig
- Routes are automatically registered on server startup
Add dashboard API endpoints with handler layer:
Step 1: Add SectionData to collections.go
- SectionData struct represents dashboard section (carousel of books)
- Used by: Dashboard handler, Templates (SSR), API JSON responses
- Shared type from collections.go (no duplicate definitions)
- Fields: ID, IsSystem, Title, Description, Icon, Items, ViewAllURL, Priority
Step 2: Create dashboard.go handler
- DashboardHandler struct with injected database and dashboard service
- GetSections: Returns dashboard sections as JSON (mobile apps, web UI TypeScript, plugins)
* Validates library_id parameter
* Fetches user dashboard preferences
* Configurable limit (default 20, max 100)
* Calls service layer for business logic
* Converts service types to handler types for JSON serialization
- UpdatePreferences: Saves dashboard preferences
* Validates library_id
* Upserts user dashboard preferences
- RestoreSystemCollection: Resets system collection to defaults
* Validates collection_name against allowed system collections
* Deletes user's copy (system collection reappears automatically)
- BuildSections: Converts service DashboardSection to handler SectionData
* Converts database.MediaItems to handlers.BookInfo
* Uses shared types from collections.go
- getViewAllURL: Maps system collections to their view-all URLs
- Reuses existing textToString helper from collections.go
Architecture Compliance:
- Generic API handler for reuse by SSR, mobile, plugins
- Uses shared types from collections.go (SectionData, BookInfo)
- IsSystem bool matches database field (no string conversion)
- Single service method returns structured data (simpler, less bugs)
- Handler just converts types (no matching logic needed)
- Reusable by mobile apps, web UI, plugins
Create DashboardService with business logic for Carousel-style dashboard:
Service Methods:
- NewDashboardService: Create service instance with injected dependencies
- GetDashboardSections: Fetch all collections (system + user) with their items
* Gets system collections (user_id = NULL) by query type
* Gets user collections with manual + auto-assigned items
* Filters hidden collections based on user preferences
* Reorders collections based on user custom order
* Sorts by priority if no custom order exists
- GetDashboardPreferences: Fetch user dashboard preferences for library
- UpsertDashboardPreferences: Save or update user dashboard preferences
- RestoreSystemCollection: Reset user's copy of system collection to defaults
Helper Methods:
- filterHiddenCollections: Remove hidden collections from results
- reorderCollections: Reorder sections based on user preference
- sortByPriority: Sort sections by priority (lower numbers first)
- getCollectionItemsByQueryType: Return items for system collections by query type
- getUserCollectionItems: Return items for user collections (manual + auto-assign)
Type Conversion Helpers:
- mediaItemsToListMediaItemsRow: Convert MediaItems to ListMediaItemsRow for rule evaluation
- getCollectionItemsRowToMediaItems: Convert GetCollectionItemsForDashboardRow to MediaItems
Architecture Compliance:
- Service layer holds all business logic (reusable by SSR, API, mobile)
- Returns database types (type safety at DB layer)
- Handler converts to API types (clean JSON contracts)
- Uses existing database queries and collection service
- Procedural/imperative style (no OOP)
- Follows existing pattern from collections.go
Add SQL queries for dashboard functionality and system collections:
Dashboard Preferences Queries:
- GetDashboardPreferences: Fetch user preferences for a library
- UpsertDashboardPreferences: Create or update user dashboard preferences
- UpdateDashboardPreferences: Update existing preferences
Dashboard Collections Queries:
- GetSystemCollectionsForDashboard: Fetch system collections (user_id IS NULL)
- GetUserCollectionsForDashboard: Fetch user collections marked for dashboard
- DeleteUserSystemCollection: Delete user's copy of a system collection
System Collection Smart Queries:
- GetContinueReadingItems: Books with 0 < progress < 1
- GetRecentlyAddedItems: Newly added items to library
- GetRecentlyReadItems: Books with progress >= 1
- GetNotStartedItems: Books with progress = 0 or no record
Collection Management Queries:
- GetCollectionItemsForDashboard: Fetch collection items with excluded flag
- GetLibraryItems: Fetch all items in a library
These queries support the unified collections architecture where system
defaults and user-created sections are both collections with user_id
NULL for system-owned and NOT NULL for user-created.
