refactor: Implement Lispy improvements - templates, strings, and error handling

This commit implements three major refactorings to make the codebase more idiomatic and maintainable: 1. Template Path Centralization - Add *template-directory* parameter and helper functions - Replace 11+ instances of repetitive template loading boilerplate - New functions: template-path, load-template in template-utils.lisp 2. String Construction with FORMAT - Replace concatenate with format for external URLs (Icecast, static files) - Maintain Radiance URI handling for internal routes - Applied to stream URLs, status endpoints, and API responses 3. Error Handling with Custom Conditions - NEW FILE: conditions.lisp with comprehensive error hierarchy - Custom conditions: not-found-error, authentication-error, authorization-error, validation-error, database-error, asteroid-stream-error - Helper macros: with-error-handling, with-db-error-handling - Helper functions: signal-not-found, signal-validation-error, etc. - Refactored 19 API endpoints and page routes - Proper HTTP status codes: 404, 401, 403, 400, 500 Changes: - conditions.lisp: NEW (180+ lines of error handling infrastructure) - asteroid.asd: Add conditions.lisp to system components - asteroid.lisp: Refactor 30+ endpoints, eliminate 200+ lines of boilerplate - template-utils.lisp: Add centralized template loading helpers - frontend-partials.lisp: Update template loading and string construction Net result: -97 lines of code, significantly improved error handling, more maintainable and idiomatic Common Lisp. All changes tested and verified: - Clean build - All endpoints functional - Error handling returns proper HTTP codes - No regressions
Update template paths in calling code.

-#+TITLE: Session Notes - Page Flow Feature Implementation
-#+DATE: 2025-10-12
-#+AUTHOR: Glenn
-
-* Session Objective
-Implement role-based page flow for Asteroid Radio application where:
- Admin users are redirected to ~/asteroid/admin~ upon login
- Regular users (listener, dj) are redirected to ~/asteroid/profile~ upon login
- User registration redirects to ~/asteroid/profile~ page
- Navigation links display conditionally based on authentication status and user role
-
-* What Was Accomplished
-
-** Core Feature: Role-Based Page Flow ✅
- Implemented login redirect logic based on user role
- Admin users → ~/asteroid/admin~ dashboard
- Regular users → ~/asteroid/profile~ page
- Registration flow → ~/asteroid/profile~ for new users
- Session persistence across page navigation
-
-** User Management API Endpoints ✅
-Converted user management endpoints to use Radiance's ~define-api~ standard:
- ~/api/asteroid/users~ - Get all users (admin only)
- ~/api/asteroid/user-stats~ - Get user statistics (admin only)
- ~/api/asteroid/users/create~ - Create new user (admin only)
-
-** Profile Page API Endpoints ✅
-Added new API endpoints for user profile functionality:
- ~/api/asteroid/user/profile~ - Get current user profile information
- ~/api/asteroid/user/listening-stats~ - Get user listening statistics (placeholder)
- ~/api/asteroid/user/recent-tracks~ - Get recently played tracks (placeholder)
- ~/api/asteroid/user/top-artists~ - Get top artists (placeholder)
-
-** Authentication & Authorization Improvements ✅
- Fixed ~require-role~ function to properly handle API requests
- Added proper JSON error responses for authorization failures
- Improved password verification with debug logging
- Added ~reset-user-password~ function for admin use
-
-** JavaScript API Response Handling ✅
-Fixed all JavaScript files to properly handle Radiance's ~api-output~ wrapper format:
- Response structure: ~{status: 200, message: "Ok.", data: {...}}~
- Updated all fetch calls to extract ~result.data~ before processing
- Added fallback handling: ~const data = result.data || result~
-
-* Files Modified
-
-** Backend (Common Lisp)
-*** ~asteroid.lisp~
- Added profile page API endpoints (~user/profile~, ~user/listening-stats~, ~user/recent-tracks~, ~user/top-artists~)
- All endpoints use ~define-api~ and ~api-output~ for proper JSON responses
- Added ~require-authentication~ checks for protected endpoints
-
-*** ~auth-routes.lisp~
- Fixed user management API endpoints to properly use ~api-output~
- Updated ~/api/asteroid/users~ endpoint for proper JSON responses
- Updated ~/api/asteroid/user-stats~ endpoint for proper JSON responses
- Updated ~/api/asteroid/users/create~ endpoint for proper JSON responses
- Added proper error handling with HTTP status codes (400, 404, 500)
-
-*** ~user-management.lisp~
- Modified ~require-role~ function to return ~nil~ for failed API authorization
- Removed problematic ~radiance:api-output~ calls
- Responsibility for JSON error responses moved to calling endpoints
- Added debug logging for authentication flow
-
-** Frontend (JavaScript)
-*** ~static/js/users.js~
- Fixed ~loadUserStats()~ to handle ~api-output~ wrapper
- Fixed ~loadUsers()~ to handle ~api-output~ wrapper
- Fixed ~createNewUser()~ to handle ~api-output~ wrapper
- Updated to properly extract ~result.data~ before processing
-
-*** ~static/js/auth-ui.js~
- Fixed ~checkAuthStatus()~ to handle ~api-output~ wrapper
- Session persistence now working correctly across navigation
- Conditional nav links display properly based on auth status
-
-*** ~static/js/profile.js~
- Fixed ~loadProfileData()~ to handle ~api-output~ wrapper
- Fixed ~loadListeningStats()~ to handle ~api-output~ wrapper
- Fixed ~loadRecentTracks()~ to handle ~api-output~ wrapper
- Fixed ~loadTopArtists()~ to handle ~api-output~ wrapper
- Added safe handling for empty arrays (no errors when no data)
- Used optional chaining (~?.~) for safer DOM queries
-
-** Documentation
-*** ~TODO.org~
- Marked "Page Flow" section as complete [2/2] ✅
- Updated notes to reflect working implementation
-
-* Technical Details
-
-** API Response Format
-All API endpoints now return responses in this format:
-#+BEGIN_SRC json
-{
-  "status": 200,
-  "message": "Ok.",
-  "data": {
-    "status": "success",
-    "users": [...]
-  }
-}
-#+END_SRC
-
-JavaScript must extract the ~data~ property before processing.
-
-** Authentication Flow
-1. User submits login form
-2. ~authenticate-user~ validates credentials
-3. Session field "user-id" is set
-4. User role is checked
-5. Redirect based on role:
-   - ~:admin~ → ~/asteroid/admin~
-   - ~:listener~ or ~:dj~ → ~/asteroid/profile~
-
-** Authorization Pattern
-#+BEGIN_SRC lisp
-(define-api asteroid/endpoint () ()
-  "API endpoint description"
-  (require-role :admin)  ; or (require-authentication)
-  (handler-case
-      (let ((data (get-some-data)))
-        (api-output `(("status" . "success")
-                      ("data" . ,data))))
-    (error (e)
-      (api-output `(("status" . "error")
-                    ("message" . ,(format nil "Error: ~a" e)))
-                  :status 500))))
-#+END_SRC
-
-* Testing Results
-
-** Successful Tests
- ✅ Admin login redirects to ~/asteroid/admin~
- ✅ Regular user login redirects to ~/asteroid/profile~
- ✅ User registration redirects to ~/asteroid/profile~
- ✅ Session persists across page navigation
- ✅ Nav links display correctly based on role (Profile/Admin/Logout vs Login/Register)
- ✅ User statistics display correctly (3 users, 1 admin, 0 DJs)
- ✅ "View All Users" table displays all users
- ✅ "Create New User" functionality working
- ✅ Profile page loads without errors
- ✅ All API endpoints return proper JSON responses
-
-** Test User Created
- Username: ~testuser~
- Email: ~test@asteroid123~
- Role: ~listener~
- Status: Active
-
-* Git Commits
-
-Three clean commits on ~feature/user-page-flow~ branch:
-
-1. ~c6ac876~ - feat: Implement role-based page flow and user management APIs
-2. ~0b5bde8~ - fix: Complete UI fixes for page flow feature
-3. ~10bd8b4~ - docs: Mark Page Flow feature as complete in TODO
-
-* Known Limitations
-
-** Profile Page Data
- Listening statistics return placeholder data (all zeros)
- Recent tracks return empty array
- Top artists return empty array
- These are ready for future implementation when listening history tracking is added
-
-** Future Enhancements
- Implement actual listening history tracking
- Add user profile editing functionality
- Add user avatar/photo support
- Implement password reset via email
-
-* Notes for Integration
-
-** For Fade (PostgreSQL Migration)
- User management API endpoints are now standardized with ~define-api~
- All endpoints use ~api-output~ for consistent JSON responses
- Session handling is working correctly
- Ready for database migration - just need to update ~find-user-by-id~, ~get-all-users~, etc.
-
-** For easilokkx (UI Work)
- All JavaScript files now properly handle ~api-output~ wrapper format
- Pattern: ~const data = result.data || result;~
- Profile page has placeholder API endpoints ready for real data
- Auth UI system working correctly for conditional display
-
-* Branch Status
- Branch: ~feature/user-page-flow~
- Status: Complete and tested
- Ready for: Pull Request to upstream/main
- Conflicts: None expected (isolated feature work)

Author	SHA1	Message	Date
glenneth	90bb9a1650	refactor: Implement Lispy improvements - templates, strings, and error handling This commit implements three major refactorings to make the codebase more idiomatic and maintainable: 1. Template Path Centralization - Add template-directory parameter and helper functions - Replace 11+ instances of repetitive template loading boilerplate - New functions: template-path, load-template in template-utils.lisp 2. String Construction with FORMAT - Replace concatenate with format for external URLs (Icecast, static files) - Maintain Radiance URI handling for internal routes - Applied to stream URLs, status endpoints, and API responses 3. Error Handling with Custom Conditions - NEW FILE: conditions.lisp with comprehensive error hierarchy - Custom conditions: not-found-error, authentication-error, authorization-error, validation-error, database-error, asteroid-stream-error - Helper macros: with-error-handling, with-db-error-handling - Helper functions: signal-not-found, signal-validation-error, etc. - Refactored 19 API endpoints and page routes - Proper HTTP status codes: 404, 401, 403, 400, 500 Changes: - conditions.lisp: NEW (180+ lines of error handling infrastructure) - asteroid.asd: Add conditions.lisp to system components - asteroid.lisp: Refactor 30+ endpoints, eliminate 200+ lines of boilerplate - template-utils.lisp: Add centralized template loading helpers - frontend-partials.lisp: Update template loading and string construction Net result: -97 lines of code, significantly improved error handling, more maintainable and idiomatic Common Lisp. All changes tested and verified: - Clean build - All endpoints functional - Error handling returns proper HTTP codes - No regressions	2025-11-02 12:05:23 -05:00
