Previously all validation failures in CreateHabitHandler returned a
generic {"error":"invalid input"}, making it impossible to tell
whether type, frequency, specific_days or specific_dates was the
problem. Errors are now wrapped with field + i18n key and the HTTP
layer replies via respondValidationErrorI18n, matching the pattern
already used by auth endpoints.
COUNTER type:
- Only accepts integer values (rejects decimals)
- Auto-increment behavior: each mark adds to existing value
- Supports decrement via negative values (e.g., -2)
- Enforces minimum value of 0 (never negative)
- Default increment is 1 if no value provided
VALUE type:
- Accepts decimal values
- Replaces value (no auto-increment)
IsNegative field:
- New boolean field on Habit entity
- Persisted in database (is_negative column)
- Available in all DTOs and HTTP responses
- Marks habits as "negative" (e.g., candy consumption)
Examples:
- COUNTER: 5 + (-2) = 3, 2 + (-3) = 0, 0 + (-1) = 0
- VALUE: 5000 → 12000 = 12000 (replacement)
Replace generic string types with strongly-typed value objects throughout
the application layer. This change ensures compile-time type checking and
automatic validation during JSON deserialization.
Changes:
- Add JSON marshaling/unmarshaling to HabitType and Frequency value objects
- Update all DTOs to use typed fields instead of strings
- Update commands and queries to use proper types
- Remove unnecessary string conversions
- Add comprehensive JSON serialization tests
- Fix existing tests to work with typed fields
Benefits:
- Type safety: compiler catches invalid usage
- Automatic validation: invalid values rejected during JSON parsing
- Better code documentation and self-explanatory APIs
- Reduced runtime errors
Update module name and all imports from habit-tracker-api to apocapoc-api.
This reflects the project's new branding as part of the apocapoc ecosystem
(apocapoc-api, apocapoc-web, apocapoc-android).
- Add date utilities for habit scheduling logic
- Implement CreateHabitHandler with full validation
- Implement GetTodaysHabitsHandler with carry-over support
- Implement MarkHabitHandler for completing habits
- All components developed following TDD methodology
- Complete test coverage for commands and queries
