IMPORTANT: Please read through this before providing feedback / comments. These are recognized areas that need to be iterated upon. The first iteration was written in one day between my classes, so THIS IS A VERY ROUGH SKELETON.

OVERVIEW: This is meant to be a sample API. Currently, it only has one resource: events. The database sets up an events, speaker, and organization table along with pertinent pivot tables (speaker_event, organization_event, organization_speaker). For available endpoints, see routes package.

NOTES:

• The handlers accept a service interface so that DB access is abstracted
• Routers accept service interfaces configured to an DB
• Handlers are typecasted HandlerFunc to avoid defining a Handler struct type with a DB field.

NEXT STEPS:

• Combine routes + handlers packages into a http package. Think more about packages and what functions are exportable. Maybe just put everything into the shetalks package?
• Abstract out handler logic (Ex: encode / decode -> just attach whatever encoder / decoder you want as well as header format)
• API Versioning
• Docker compose out the server
• Revisit whether I actually want a pointer or a value passed along as either the receiver or in parameters
• Issue during Create, where if speaker doesn't exist, you can still assign the uncreated speaker to the event. Need to look at atomic transactions.
• Address everything below

RECOGNIZED AREAS OF IMPROVEMENT:

• Error Handling - many of the errors are redundant / don't handle the issue at the source

• Responses - many of the header error responses aren't correct/convention currently just defaulting to StatusUnprocessableEntity until I figure out which codes I actually want to use

• Logging - should create/incorporate a logging pkg (need to research what deserves to be logged)

• Queries - many redundant/inefficient queries. Many terrible cases, where if one query succeeds & another fails, the first query is not rolled back. Need to look into atomic transactions

• Testing - need to create mocks & more tests.
