Dan Mestas 71b52f6c5e feat(api): implement OpenAPI/REST API for file conversions 
- Add comprehensive REST API at /api/v1 with modular structure
- Implement authentication endpoints (register, login, logout, me)
- Add converter listing and format discovery endpoints
- Create job management and file download endpoints
- Add health check endpoint for monitoring
- Set up CORS support for browser-based API clients
- Create API middleware for JWT authentication
- Add environment variables for API configuration
- Include comprehensive API documentation and test script

Infrastructure:
- Enhanced CI/CD workflow for custom Docker registries
- Docker Compose setup with dev, prod, and monitoring profiles
- Claude.ai integration files for development workflow
- Environment-based configuration with .env.development

Known limitations:
- JWT authentication context needs fixing (using ALLOW_UNAUTHENTICATED=true)
- Swagger UI temporarily disabled due to composition error
- File upload endpoint needs multipart/form-data support

The API code is isolated in src/api/ directory to maintain separation
from the existing codebase, making it easy to maintain or contribute back.

ConvertX OpenAPI Implementation Summary

✅ Completed Features

1. Project Setup

  • CLAUDE.md: Complete codebase documentation
  • Slash Commands: /commit, /pr, /test, /build helpers
  • Environment Configuration: .env.development with API settings

2. CI/CD Enhancements

  • docker-publish-custom.yml: Supports custom Docker registries
  • docker-compose.yml: Multi-profile setup (dev, prod, monitoring)
  • Registry Configuration: Environment variable based registry selection

3. API Implementation

  • Base Structure: /api/v1 endpoints with modular organization
  • Health Check: /api/v1/health - System status monitoring
  • Authentication:
    • POST /api/v1/auth/register - User registration
    • POST /api/v1/auth/login - JWT token generation
    • GET /api/v1/auth/me - Current user info
    • POST /api/v1/auth/logout - Session cleanup
  • Converters:
    • GET /api/v1/converters - List all converters
    • GET /api/v1/converters/:name - Converter details
    • GET /api/v1/converters/formats/:format - Find converters by format
  • Jobs:
    • GET /api/v1/jobs - List user jobs
    • GET /api/v1/jobs/:id - Job details
    • DELETE /api/v1/jobs/:id - Delete job
  • Files:
    • GET /api/v1/files/:jobId - List job files
    • GET /api/v1/files/:jobId/:fileName - Download file
  • Conversions:
    • POST /api/v1/conversions - Start conversion (partial implementation)

4. Documentation & Testing

  • API.md: Complete API documentation
  • test-api.sh: Automated API testing script
  • CORS: Full CORS support for browser-based clients

🚧 Known Issues & Limitations

1. Authentication Context

  • JWT verification in middleware needs fixing
  • Currently requires ALLOW_UNAUTHENTICATED=true for testing
  • User context not properly passed to route handlers

2. File Upload

  • Conversion endpoint expects pre-uploaded files
  • Multipart file upload not yet implemented
  • Need to integrate with existing upload logic

3. Swagger/OpenAPI

  • Swagger UI disabled due to Elysia composition error
  • OpenAPI spec generation needs debugging
  • Alternative: Manual API documentation provided

🔮 Next Steps

Phase 2: Core Functionality

  1. Fix JWT authentication middleware
  2. Implement multipart file upload
  3. Complete conversion endpoint with actual file processing
  4. Add progress tracking via SSE or WebSockets

Phase 3: Enhanced Features

  1. API key authentication
  2. Rate limiting implementation
  3. Webhook notifications
  4. Batch conversion support

Phase 4: Production Ready

  1. Re-enable Swagger UI
  2. Add comprehensive error handling
  3. Implement request/response logging
  4. Performance optimization
  5. API versioning strategy

📝 Usage

Development

# Install dependencies
bun install

# Start with API enabled
export $(cat .env.development | xargs) && bun run dev

# Test API
./test-api.sh

Docker

# Development with hot reload
docker compose --profile dev up

# Production
docker compose up convertx

🔧 Configuration

Key environment variables:

  • API_ENABLED=true - Enable API endpoints
  • ALLOW_UNAUTHENTICATED=true - Allow anonymous access (dev only)
  • JWT_SECRET - Secret for JWT signing
  • API_RATE_LIMIT - Requests per window
  • API_RATE_WINDOW - Rate limit time window

🏗️ Architecture Notes

  • API code isolated in src/api/ directory
  • Minimal changes to existing codebase
  • Reuses existing converter logic
  • Compatible with current database schema
  • Can be disabled via environment variable

The foundation is solid and ready for the remaining features to be implemented in subsequent phases.
