Today's Development Updates: API Improvements & New Features

What developments have taken place today?

Several commits have been made focusing on API improvements, testing, backend feature development, and dependency updates.

1. Date Range Handling Enhancement: The ApiHandlerWebsiteUrlPingHistory struct’s date range parsing logic has been refined. It now uses RFC3339 formatting for input dates, with error handling in case of invalid formats. Unit tests have been added to verify the bucket generator’s functionality across various date ranges and edge cases. Logging statements have also been introduced for debugging database query construction. This improves data accuracy and testability.

2. ApiResponseWebsiteUrlPingHistory Structure Update: The structure of ApiResponseWebsiteUrlPingHistory has been modified to include integer representations (int) for fields like ID, Duration, StatusCode, and Created, simplifying the data model. Corresponding changes have been made in encoding and decoding functions with added validation to ensure required fields are present during decoding. This enhances data clarity and simplifies data handling.

3. Website URL Metric Controller & Routes: A new WebsiteUrlMetricController has been implemented alongside associated routes (/api/v1/website-url-metric/:id) for retrieving detailed metrics for individual URLs. The controller utilizes repositories to access the database, and a template (website_url_metric_detail.go.tmpl) is used to render data into a table format with pagination support via an offset parameter in the repository search function. This introduces new functionality for viewing URL metric information.

4. ApiResponseWebsiteUrlPingHistory Field Expansion: The ApiResponseWebsiteUrlPingHistory struct has been extended by adding duration, status_code, and created fields as OptInt. These additions have been reflected in the JSON schema definition, decoding logic, and field names, enhancing data representation.

5. Remote Daemon Client TypeScript Dependency Update: The dependency on remote-daemon-client-typescript has been upgraded from version 797c0b29eff88eeb011e3c5af0a0cede2f2c9e5f to 92691529e4634d2b2c6b7c746621093bdd3a0046. No code changes were implemented during this update.

6. Website URL Ping History Repository Enhancements: The WebsiteURLPingHistoryRepository now supports pagination through an offset parameter and includes filtering by website URL ID when provided. Chart.js versions have been updated to 4.4.9 and 2.2.0 respectively, along with the addition of a zoom plugin for interactive exploration. Duration and HTTP status code graphs are rendered using Chart.js, displaying data in an accessible visual format. The HTML structure has also been adjusted to accommodate these visualizations. This significantly improves data presentation and allows users to analyze website URL ping history more effectively.

These changes represent improvements in data handling, API functionality, test coverage, and user experience through enhanced visualization capabilities. The combination of structural refinements, new features, and dependency updates contributes to a more robust, efficient, and informative system for managing website URL metrics and ping history.
