🎯 What Was Built

API Endpoint: `GET /api/clusters/[id]/folders`

Two Operation Modes:

Mode 1: Virtual Root (No Path Parameter)

Returns list of all libraries in the cluster with statistics.

Request Example:

GET /api/clusters/1/folders

Response:

{
  "isVirtualRoot": true,
  "libraries": [
    {
      "id": 1,
      "path": "/mnt/movies/action",
      "itemCount": 245,
      "totalSize": 16434124800,
      "videoCount": 245,
      "photoCount": 0,
      "textCount": 0
    }
  ],
  "total": 1,
  "limit": 50,
  "offset": 0,
  "hasMore": false
}

Use Case: Initial "Folders" tab view showing all cluster libraries as folder cards.

Mode 2: Folder Contents (With Path Parameter)

Returns directory contents (folders + files) for a specific path within cluster libraries.

Request Example:

GET /api/clusters/1/folders?path=/mnt/movies/action/2023

Response:

{
  "isVirtualRoot": false,
  "currentPath": "/mnt/movies/action/2023",
  "libraryRoot": "/mnt/movies/action",
  "libraryId": 1,
  "items": [
    {
      "name": "January",
      "path": "/mnt/movies/action/2023/January",
      "isDirectory": true,
      "size": 0,
      "itemCount": 15
    },
    {
      "name": "movie.mp4",
      "path": "/mnt/movies/action/2023/movie.mp4",
      "isDirectory": false,
      "id": 123,
      "type": "video",
      "size": 1258291200,
      "thumbnail": "/api/videos/123/thumbnail",
      "avg_rating": 4.5,
      "star_count": 8,
      "bookmark_count": 2,
      "title": "Movie Title"
    }
  ],
  "total": 2,
  "limit": 50,
  "offset": 0,
  "hasMore": false
}

Use Case: Browsing folder hierarchy within a cluster library.

🔒 Security Features

Path Validation

✅ Prevents access outside cluster scope

Validates requested path belongs to one of the cluster's libraries
Returns 403 Forbidden if path is outside cluster
Checks cluster existence before processing

File System Validation

✅ Ensures safe file access

Verifies path exists on file system
Confirms path is a directory (not a file)
Returns appropriate HTTP status codes (404, 400)
Gracefully handles permission errors

Error Handling

✅ Comprehensive error responses

400 Bad Request - Invalid cluster ID or path is not a directory
403 Forbidden - Path does not belong to cluster
404 Not Found - Cluster or path not found
500 Internal Server Error - Unexpected errors

📊 Key Features

Virtual Root Mode

✅ Lists all libraries in cluster
✅ Calculates statistics per library:
- Total item count
- Total storage size
- Video count
- Photo count
- Text count
✅ Pagination support
✅ Fast response (database queries only)

✅ Reads actual file system directory structure
✅ Mixed display: folders + media files
✅ Folder item counts (from database)
✅ Media file metadata:
- Ratings (avg_rating, star_count)
- Bookmarks (bookmark_count)
- Thumbnails
- File size
- Media type
✅ Sorting: Folders first, then files (alphabetical)
✅ Pagination for large directories
✅ Unknown file types handled gracefully

Database Integration

✅ Queries cluster-library mappings
✅ Retrieves media metadata for files
✅ Calculates directory item counts
✅ Efficient SQL queries with JOINs
✅ Left joins for ratings and bookmarks

🧪 Testing Coverage

Created comprehensive testing guide with:

7 Test Scenarios

✅ Virtual Root (No Path)
✅ Library Root Folder
✅ Subfolder Navigation
✅ Invalid Cluster (404)
✅ Path Outside Cluster (403)
✅ Non-existent Path (404)
✅ Pagination

Testing Tools Provided

📈 Technical Highlights

Code Quality

✅ TypeScript: Fully typed, no compilation errors
✅ Modularity: Separate handlers for virtual root vs folder contents
✅ Error Handling: Try-catch blocks, detailed error messages
✅ Comments: JSDoc comments for key functions
✅ Logging: Console warnings for access issues

Performance

✅ Database Queries: Optimized with proper indexes
✅ Pagination: Prevents loading huge directories at once
✅ File System: Skips inaccessible files gracefully
✅ Statistics: Efficient aggregation with SQL

Design Patterns

✅ Separation of Concerns: Virtual root vs folder logic separated
✅ Validation Layer: Path security before file system access
✅ Response Consistency: Standard format across modes
✅ Error First: Validates inputs before processing

🔄 Integration Points

Frontend Will Consume

Virtual Root Response → Render library cards
Folder Contents Response → Render folder/file grid
Error Responses → Display user-friendly error messages

Component Integration (Phase 2)

The API is designed to work seamlessly with:

ClusterFolderView component (to be created)
VirtualizedFolderGrid component (existing, will reuse)
Media viewer components (existing)

📋 Next Phase Preview

Phase 2: Frontend Component (Next)

Estimated Time: 3-4 hours

Tasks:

Create ClusterFolderView component
Implement virtual root library card rendering
Integrate VirtualizedFolderGrid for folder navigation
Build breadcrumb system (Cluster → Library → Folders)
Handle navigation state management
Connect to /api/clusters/[id]/folders endpoint

Files to Create:

/src/components/cluster-folder-view.tsx

Files to Modify:

/src/app/clusters/[id]/page.tsx (add Folders tab)
/src/components/virtualized-media-grid.tsx (cluster breadcrumb support)
