## Tech Stack
AniPub leverages a robust, modern stack for reliability and scalability:

| Layer       | Technologies                  | Purpose                          |
|-------------|-------------------------------|----------------------------------|
| **Frontend** | EJS, CSS, JavaScript         | Server-rendered templates for dynamic UI, custom styling, and interactive elements. |
| **Backend**  | Node.js, Express             | Handles API requests, routing, and server logic. |
| **Database** | MongoDB                      | Stores user data, anime metadata, ratings, comments, and playlists. |
| **Auth**     | JWT, Google OAuth            | Secure authentication and session management. |
| **Security** | Hashed Passwords, HTTPS      | Protects user data and ensures secure connections. |
| **Assets**   | Custom Images & Thumbnails   | Enhances visual appeal with anime-specific media. |
| **External APIs** | Jikan (MAL Unofficial)      | Fetches detailed anime info for /details pages, even without user MAL connection. |

## Architecture Overview
AniPub follows a full-stack MVC (Model-View-Controller) architecture, ensuring separation of concerns for maintainability. Here's how it all ties together:

### High-Level System Model
The application flows from user requests through the backend to the database, rendering views dynamically.

```mermaid
graph TD
    A["User Browser"] -->|HTTP Request| B["Express Server (Node.js)"]
    B -->|Auth Check| C["JWT / Google OAuth"]
    C -->|Validated| D["MongoDB Database"]
    D -->|User Data Fetch| B
    B -->|Check Login Status| DEC1{Logged In?}
    DEC1 -->|No| JIKAN["Jikan API"]
    DEC1 -->|Yes| DEC2{MAL Account Connected?}
    DEC2 -->|Yes| MAL["MAL API"]
    DEC2 -->|No| JIKAN
    JIKAN -->|Anime Details| B
    MAL -->|Anime Details| B
    B -->|Render| E["EJS Templates"]
    E -->|HTML/CSS/JS| A
    F["AniPub AI Module"] -->|API Calls| B
    subgraph "Frontend"
        A
        E
    end
    subgraph "Backend"
        B
        C
        F
        DEC1
        DEC2
    end
    subgraph "Data Layer"
        D
    end
    subgraph "External"
        JIKAN
        MAL
    end
```

- **User Browser**: Interacts with the UI, sending requests for streaming, searches, or comments.
- **Express Server**: Acts as the controller, processing requests and orchestrating responses.
- **Auth Layer**: Validates users via JWT tokens or OAuth, preventing unauthorized access.
- **MongoDB**: Models data like anime entries (e.g., title, episodes, ratings) and user profiles.
- **EJS Templates**: Views that dynamically generate HTML based on data from the backend.
- **AniPub AI**: An integrated module for conversational features.
- **Jikan API**: Used to fetch anime details for /details pages, regardless of user MAL connection.

### Authentication & Session Model
Users can log in manually (email/password) or via Google OAuth. Upon successful login, they receive secure cookies and sessions. If the user connects to MyAnimeList (MAL), an additional MAL-specific session is generated and stored in the database. This session validates the user for fetching, requesting, or modifying data via the MyAnimeList API. If not connected to MAL, no additional session is created, but anime details are still fetched via Jikan API for display purposes.

```mermaid
flowchart LR
    Start["User Attempts Login"] --> Method["Manual (Email/Password) or Google OAuth"]
    Method --> Auth["Authenticate & Generate JWT"]
    Auth -->|Success| Session["Set Secure Cookies & Session"]
    Session --> DB["Store Session in MongoDB"]
    DB --> App["Grant Access to Core Features"]
    subgraph "MAL Connection (Optional)"
        Connect["Connect to MAL in Settings"] --> MALAuth["MAL OAuth"]
        MALAuth -->|Success| MALSession["Generate MAL-Specific Session"]
        MALSession --> DBStore["Store MAL Session & Info in User DB"]
        DBStore --> MALSync["Validate & Fetch/Modify MAL Data"]
    end
    App -->|MAL Connected| MALSync
    App -->|Not MAL Connected| Jikan["Use Jikan API for Anime Details"]
    subgraph "Error Handling"
        Auth -->|Fail| Redirect["Redirect to Login"]
        MALAuth -->|Fail| Error["Show Error"]
    end
```

- **Secure Cookies & Sessions**: Managed via JWT for general authentication, enabling features like chat and multi-device sync.
- **MAL-Specific Session**: Only for MAL-connected users; allows personalized data sync with MyAnimeList API.
- **Jikan Fallback**: For all users, provides anime details on /details/animename pages without requiring personal MAL connection.

### Data Flow Model
For a typical user action, like watching an episode:

```mermaid
flowchart LR
    Start["User Requests Episode"] --> Auth["Authenticate Session/Cookies"]
    Auth -->|Success| Fetch["Query MongoDB for Episode Data"]
    Fetch --> Stream["Stream Video Content"]
    Stream --> Render["Render Player in EJS View"]
    Render --> Display["Display in Browser"]
    subgraph "Error Handling"
        Auth -->|Fail| Redirect["Redirect to Login"]
    end
    Display --> Interact["User Comments/Rates"]
    Interact --> Update["Update DB Ratings/Comments"]
```

This model ensures efficient, secure data handling with real-time updates.

### Secure Chat Model (/chat)
AniPub uses secure sessions for real-time user communication via the /chat endpoint. Here's the flow:

- **Secure Sessions & Cookies**: Ensures encrypted, authenticated communication between users.
- **Real-Time**: Enables live discussions on anime topics.

### MyAnimeList (MAL) Integration Model
Connect your MAL account in settings for seamless syncing:

```mermaid
flowchart LR
    Start["User Accesses Settings"] --> Auth["Authenticate User (Session/Cookies)"]
    Auth -->|Success| Connect["Initiate MAL OAuth"]
    Connect -->|Redirect to MAL| MAL["MyAnimeList API"]
    MAL -->|Access Token| MALSession["Generate & Store MAL Session"]
    MALSession --> Sync["Sync Watchlists/Ratings (Fetch/Modify)"]
    Sync -->|Update Data| DB["MongoDB (User Profile)"]
    DB -->|Reflect Changes| App["AniPub App"]
    subgraph "Fallback for Non-MAL Users"
        App --> Jikan["Fetch Details via Jikan API"]
    end
    subgraph "Error Handling"
        Auth -->|Fail| Redirect["Redirect to Login"]
        Connect -->|Fail| Error["Show Error Message"]
    end
```

- **OAuth Flow**: Secure connection to MAL for importing/exporting data, with MAL-specific session if connected.
- **Sync**: Automatically updates watch progress, ratings, and lists. MAL info is stored in the user database for ongoing validation.
- **Jikan API**: Used for /details/animename to show anime details for all users, even without personal MAL connection.

### Security Model
AniPub prioritizes security through layered protections:

```mermaid
graph LR
    A["External Request"] -->|HTTPS| B["Firewall / Rate Limiting"]
    B --> C["Input Validation"]
    C --> D["Authentication (JWT/OAuth + Cookies/Sessions)"]
    D --> E["Authorization Checks"]
    E --> F["Data Access (MongoDB)"]
    F -->|Encrypted| G["Response"]
    subgraph "Security Layers"
        B
        C
        D
        E
    end
```

Passwords are hashed (e.g., using bcrypt), sessions and cookies are secure, and all communications are encrypted.
