Example:

```js
{
    "port": "$env", // Equals value of process.env.PORT
    "db": {
        "mongo": {
            "host": "localhost",
            "name": "test-db"
        }
    },
    "plugins": ["dc-api-mongo"],
    "session": {
        "secret": "super secret string",
        "store": "mongo"
    },
    "ssl": {
        "cert": "/etc/letsencrypt/live/awesome.site/cert.pem",
        "key": "/etc/letsencrypt/live/awesome.site/privkey.pem"
    },
    "dev": {
        "port": 8081,
        "db": {
            "mongo": { "name": "test-dev-db" }
        }
    }
}
```

---

## MongoDB (recommended)

Example:

```js
// JS
const db = require('dc-api-mongo').connect();

// TS
import db from 'dc-api-mongo/mongo';

async function main() {
 const result = await db.Model.findOne();
 console.log(result);
}

main();
```

Where `Model` is your model name.

## MySQL

If you're using MySQL, use `mysql` as database driver (don't forget to apply plugin first).

```js
const db = require('dc-api-mysql').connect();

async function main() {
 const result = await db.Model.findOne();
 console.log(result);
}

main();
```

Where `Model` is your model name.

## Plugins

For first, install plugin package via `npm` or `yarn`.
After this add name of plugin package to `plugins` array in `config.json`.

Example `config.json`:

```js
{
    // ...
    "plugins": ["dc-api-mongo"]
}
```

If you want create your own plugin, read
[plugin development documentation](https://dimacrafter.github.io/dc-api-core/en/plugins/basics.html)

## Sessions

### Functions

| Function                 | Example                        | Description            |
|--------------------------|--------------------------------|------------------------|
| `this.session.<name>`    | `this.session.name = 'User'`   | Set session data       |
| `this.session.save()`    | `await this.session.save()`    | Save session data      |
| `this.session.destroy()` | `await this.session.destroy()` | Clear all session data |

#### Example

```js
module.exports = class Controller {
    async test () {
        this.session.name = 'test';
        await this.session.save();
        this.send('saved');
    }
}
```

## Request hooks

### onLoad

Will be executed before calling action method in controller.

If the `onLoad` function returns false, the request will be rejected.

#### Example

```js
module.exports = class Test {
    onLoad () {
        if (!this.session.user) return false;
    }
}
```

## Data Validation

Validator is available via `this.validator` in HTTP controller context.

### Main `check` function

Validates data against field schema and returns validation result.

```js
module.exports = class Test {
    async createUser () {
        const result = this.validator.check(this.data, [
            {
                name: 'email',
                type: 'string',
                use: this.validator.email
            },
            {
                name: 'password',
                type: 'string',
                use: this.validator.password
            },
            {
                name: 'age',
                type: 'number',
                min: 18,
                max: 100
            }
        ]);

if (!result.success) {
            this.send({ errors: result.errors }, 400);
            return;
        }

const validatedData = result.filtered;
        
        this.send(validatedData);
    }
}
```

### Field Schema

| Parameter | Type            | Description                                                                   |
|-----------|-----------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `name`    | `string`        | Field name (required)                                                         |
| `type`    | `string`        | Data type: `'string'`, `'number'`, `'boolean'`, `'object'`, `'array'`         |

| `fields`  | `FieldSchema[]` | Nested fields for `'object'` type                                             |
| `of`      | `FieldSchema`   | Element schema for `'array'` type                                             |
| `min`     | `number`        | Minimum length for string/array                                               |

### Usage Examples

#### Object Validation

```js
module.exports = class Test {
    async createProfile () {
        const result = this.validator.check(this.data, [
            {
                name: 'user',
                type: 'object',
                fields: [
                    { name: 'name', type: 'string', min: 2, max: 50 },
                    { name: 'email', type: 'string', use: this.validator.email }
                ]
            }
        ]);

if (!result.success) {
            this.send({ errors: result.errors }, 400);
            return;
        }

this.send(result.filtered);
    }
}
```

#### Array Validation

```js
module.exports = class Test {
    async createItems () {
        const result = this.validator.check(this.data, [
            {
                name: 'items',
                type: 'array',
                min: 1,
                max: 10,
                of: {
                    type: 'string',
                    min: 3
                }
            }
        ]);

if (!result.success) {
            this.send({ errors: result.errors }, 400);
            return;
        }

this.send(result.filtered);
    }
}
```

#### Enum Validation

```js
module.exports = class Test {
    async updateStatus () {
        const result = this.validator.check(this.data, [
            {
                name: 'status',
                type: 'string',
                enum: ['pending', 'approved', 'rejected']
            }
        ]);

if (!result.success) {
            this.send({ errors: result.errors }, 400);
            return;
        }

this.send(result.filtered);
    }
}
```

## NATS

NATS support is optional. Install the package and configure the connection in `config.json`.

### Installation

```bash
npm install nats
```

### Configuration

```js
// config.json
{
    "port": 8081,
    "nats": {
        "url": "nats://localhost:4222",
        "prefix": "myapp"  // optional, prepended to all subjects
    }
}
```

Set `"port": false` to disable the HTTP server entirely (NATS-only service):

```js
{
    "port": false,
    "nats": { "url": "nats://localhost:4222" }
}
```

### Subject mapping

Controller and method names are converted to kebab-case and joined with `.`:

| Controller     | Method    | Subject                                      |
|----------------|-----------|----------------------------------------------|
| `OrderService` | `create`  | `order-service.create`                       |
| `OrderService` | `getById` | `order-service.get-by-id`                    |
| `OrderService` | `create`  | `myapp.order-service.create` _(with prefix)_ |

Private methods (prefixed with `_`) and `onLoad` are not subscribed.

### NatsController — request-reply

Handles NATS requests and sends a reply. Uses **queue subscription** — in a multi-instance deployment, only one instance
receives each message.

```js
const { NatsController } = require('dc-api-core');

module.exports = class OrderService extends NatsController {
    // subject: order-service.create
    create() {
        const { name, amount } = this.data;  // parsed JSON payload
        
        return { id: 123, name, amount };     // auto-serialized reply
    }
}
```

**Context:**

| Property          | Description                                   |
|-------------------|-----------------------------------------------|
| `this.data`       | Parsed JSON payload from the request          |
| `this.subject`    | The NATS subject this message was received on |
| `this.controller` | Proxy to call other methods of the controller |

**Calling from a client:**

```js
const { connect } = require('nats');
const nc = await connect({ servers: 'nats://localhost:4222' });

const reply = await nc.request(
    'order-service.create',
    Buffer.from(JSON.stringify({ name: 'Widget', amount: 5 }))
);

console.log(JSON.parse(reply.data.toString())); // { id: 123, name: 'Widget', amount: 5 }
```

### NatsSubscription — pub-sub

Listens to published messages without replying. Uses a **regular subscription** — all instances receive every message.
Can publish to other subjects via `this.publish()`.

```js
const { NatsSubscription } = require('dc-api-core');

module.exports = class OrderEvents extends NatsSubscription {
    // subject: order-events.created
    created() {
        const order = this.data;

// Push to another subject
        this.publish('notifications.send', {
            userId: order.userId,
            text: `Order #${order.id} has been created`
        });
    }
}
```

**Context:**

| Property / Method             | Description                                   |
|-------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------|
| `this.data`                   | Parsed JSON payload                           |
| `this.subject`                | The NATS subject this message was received on |
| `this.publish(subject, data)` | Publish a message to the given subject        |
| `this.controller`             | Proxy to call other methods of the controller |

### Accessing the NATS connection

The active connection is exposed after startup for use in your own code (e.g. in `startup.js` or controllers):

```js
const core = require('dc-api-core');

// Publish a message manually
core.nats.publish('some.subject', Buffer.from(JSON.stringify({ foo: 'bar' })));
```

### Comparison

|              | `NatsController`            | `NatsSubscription`                |
|--------------|-----------------------------|-----------------------------------|

## Working with config.json

### Require

Require config module:

```js
// JS
const config = require('dc-api-core/config');

// TS
import config from 'dc-api-core/config';
```

Get data:

```js
config.<your_param>
```

#### Example

```js
const config = require('dc-api-core/config');

module.exports = class Test {
    index() {
     this.send(config.myParam);
    }
}
```

## Routing

```js
// startup.js
const Router = require('dc-api-core/router');
Router.register('/testing/files/${id}/${file}.jpg', 'Test.getFile');
```

Now requests like `/testing/files/some-id/secret_file.jpg` will call `getFile` method of `Test` controller.

```js
// controllers/Test.js
class Test {
    async getFile () {
        this.send(this.params);
        // Will send { "id": "some-id", "file": "secret_file" }
    }
}

module.exports = Test;
```

## My TODOs

* [ ] Document new `config.cors.headers`

* [ ] Support for glibc < 2.18
* [ ] Typing (`.d.ts`) files
* [ ] Automatic package publication when all tests are passed
* [ ] More functionality tests
* [ ] Clusterization/multi-threading support
* [ ] Edit pages "API" > "Database driver" and "Plugins" > "Basics" of docs
