2024-05-08Introduce model.Transaction()xengineering
It is a very common pattern that some function needs to access the database and wants to wrap all the actions into one transaction. The advantage of a transaction is that it is ACID: - atomic - consistent - isolated - durable In Go it is required to request a new transaction, execute functionality on it and handle rollback or commit of this transaction based on the success of the operation. All this and the error handling can be written down in the model.Transaction() function exactly once. The full signature of it is: func Transaction(f func(*sql.Tx) error) error It requires a function or closure passed as argument which takes the transaction (*sql.Tx) and returns an error which might be nil. This is very generic. It is applied to: - injecting test data - database migrations - data read requests - data write requests

2024-04-06model: Always pass *sql.Tx to CRUD methodsxengineering
When nesting objects like steps into other objects like recipes it is required to pass a *sql.Tx value to the CRUD methods of the inner object to be able to roll back the whole transaction. The top level object used to be responsible for the creation of this *sql.Tx inside its CRUD methods. This is now moved to the caller of the CRUD methods (here the HTTP handler function). The advantage is that all CRUD methods now accept a *sql.Tx as only argument which makes those methods more consistent.
2024-03-24model: Add recipe stepsxengineering
This provides the infrastructure to create views and HTTP handlers to provide recipe steps.
2024-03-24model: Crash on failed test recipe injectionxengineering
This error used to be silent. Since it is just about test recipes and thus a debugging environment it is best to directly give up and log the error.
2024-03-04model: Create test data with Go instead of SQLxengineering
This allows to formulate the test data with an object-based model which is easier than writing it down in a relational model.
2023-12-27model: Inject test data into databasexengineering
This is useful for debugging and testing.
2023-12-27model: Add initial SQL migrationxengineering
This provides the basic table structure to the database.
2023-12-27model: Implement database connectionxengineering
The already implemented storage folder should contain a sqlite database to store most parts of the Ceres user data.
