# Architecture
RenewCMS is a Go HTTP API and a Vue 3 SPA, shipped as a single binary.
## Backend layering
Dependencies point inward:
```
api/ ──▶ internal/infrastructure/useCases ──▶ internal/domain ◀── internal/infrastructure/{persistence,mailer}
```
| Layer | Location | Rules |
|---|---|---|
| Domain | `internal/domain/<name>/` | Entities, `Err…` sentinel errors, `Repository` interfaces. Imports only the stdlib and other domain packages, with no GORM tags. |
| Use cases | `internal/infrastructure/useCases/` | Application logic. Depends only on domain interfaces, never on persistence, mailer, GORM or `net/http`. |
| Adapters | `internal/infrastructure/persistence/{models,mappers,repositories}`, `internal/infrastructure/mailer` | Implement a domain `Repository` (assert with `var _ domain.Repository = &X{}`). GORM structs stay in `models` and are converted by `mappers`. |
| Delivery | `api/handlers/<name>/`, `api/router.go` | HTTP handlers receive use cases through `NewHandler(...)`. They never import persistence, mailer or GORM. |
| Composition root | `api/dependecyInjection.go` | The only place that opens the DB, builds repositories and use cases, and lists models for `AutoMigrate`. |
| Entry point | `cmd/server/main.go` | Env/config, HTTP server, graceful shutdown. |
Nothing under `internal/` imports `api/`.
### Delivery packages
| Package | Role |
|---|---|
| `api/handlers/user` | Authenticated user endpoints: profile update (`UpdateMe`) and the users list with invitations (`CreateInvite`, `ListUsers`). |
| `api/handlers/media` | The media library under `/v1/media` (list, upload, rename, delete, merge, usage). Images belong to the library, not to an article: deleting an article never deletes an image, and an image's "used in" is read from article bodies each time. |
| `api/handlers/image` | `POST /v1/article/{id}/image`, a temporary alias that creates a library image and attaches nothing. `PostLegacyArticleImage` goes away when the editor moves to `/v1/media`. |
| `api/pkg/upload` | Multipart `file` reading and the mapping of upload errors (415, 413, 400) shared by both upload routes. |
| `api/pkg/publicuser` | `PublicUser`, the JSON shape of a user with no password, codes or token version. `publicuser.New` converts a domain `user.User`, so handlers never serialise the domain struct directly. |
### Image metadata backfill
At boot, `BackfillImageMetadata` fills `filename`, `size`, `content_type`, `width`, `height` and `sha256` for image rows that lack them, reading the files in `UPLOAD_DIR`. It is idempotent, and a row whose file is missing or unreadable is left as it is without stopping the boot. The old `article_id` column and the `article_images` table are kept and never written.
## Frontend ↔ backend
```
web/ (Vue, Vite)
│ task build:web (vue-tsc + vite build)
▼
internal/infrastructure/assets/dist/ gitignored build output
│ //go:embed all:dist (assets_embed.go, default build)
▼
bin/renewcms ── /v1/* API
── /healthz
── /* SPA (api/handlers/frontend), index.html fallback
```
- **Production:** a single origin. The SPA calls the API with relative URLs, so the JWT cookie works without CORS. Files under `assets/` are content-hashed by Vite and cached for a year. `index.html` is never cached.
- **Development:** built with `-tags nofrontend` (`assets_stub.go`, `assets.Dist == nil`). Vite serves the SPA on :5173 and proxies `/v1` to the API on :8080. See [development.md](development.md).
