Backend Patterns (NestJS)

Architecture

• Thin Controller — business logic in Service layer
• DTO Validation — class-validator + class-transformer
• RBAC — CASL for authorization
• Error Handling — Logger + HttpException

UUID Resolution Pattern

// Controller - accept UUID in DTO
@Post()
async create(@Body() dto: CreateCorrespondenceDto) {
  // Resolve UUID to internal ID
  const contract = await this.contractService.findOneByUuid(dto.contractUuid);
  const contractId = contract.id; // Internal INT for DB queries
  
  return this.service.create(dto, contractId);
}

// Service - use internal ID for DB operations
async create(dto: CreateCorrespondenceDto, contractId: number) {
  // Use contractId (INT) for database queries
  const correspondence = this.repo.create({
    contractId,  // FK is INT
    // ... other fields
  });
  return this.repo.save(correspondence);
}

API Response Pattern

// Entity
@Entity()
class Contract extends UuidBaseEntity {
  @Column({ type: 'uuid' })
  publicId: string;
  
  @PrimaryKey()
  @Exclude()
  id: number;
}

// Response automatically includes publicId as 'id'
// { id: "019505a1-7c3e-7000-8000-abc123def456", ... }
