### Repository Pattern Implementation
... (remaining content omitted for brevity) ...
```typescript
// src/repositories/userRepository.ts
import { db } from '../config/database';
import { User } from '../models/user';
import { CreateUserDto, UpdateUserDto } from '../dtos/userDtos';
import { hashPassword } from '../utils/auth';
### Bolt Design System
export class UserRepository {
async findAll(): Promise<User[]> {
return db.users.findMany({
select: {
id: true,
name: true,
email: true,
role: true,
createdAt: true,
updatedAt: true,
},
});
}
```plaintext
# Bolt Design System
async findById(id: number): Promise<User | null> {
return db.users.findUnique({
where: { id },
select: {
id: true,
name: true,
email: true,
role: true,
createdAt: true,
updatedAt: true,
},
});
}
This document contains comprehensive design guidelines for creating beautiful, consistent, and production-ready user interfaces.
async findByEmail(email: string): Promise<User | null> {
return db.users.findUnique({
where: { email },
select: {
id: true,
name: true,
email: true,
role: true,
createdAt: true,
updatedAt: true,
},
});
}
## Design Philosophy
async create(userData: CreateUserDto): Promise<User> {
const hashedPassword = await hashPassword(userData.password);
return db.users.create({
data: {
name: userData.name,
email: userData.email,
password: hashedPassword,
role: userData.role || 'USER',
},
select: {
id: true,
name: true,
email: true,
role: true,
createdAt: true,
updatedAt: true,
},
});
}
Create interfaces that are:
async update(id: number, userData: UpdateUserDto): Promise<User | null> {
const data: any = {
name: userData.name,
email: userData.email,
role: userData.role,
};
// Only hash password if it's included in the update
if (userData.password) {
data.password = await hashPassword(userData.password);
}
// Remove undefined values
Object.keys(data).forEach(key => data[key] === undefined && delete data[key]);
return db.users.update({
where: { id },
data,
select: {
id: true,
name: true,
email: true,
role: true,
createdAt: true,
updatedAt: true,
},
});
}
- **Professional and Beautiful** - Clean, modern aesthetics with attention to detail
- **Production-Ready** - Fully featured and implementation-ready for real-world use
- **Unique** - Distinctive visual style that avoids generic or cookie-cutter designs
- **Consistent** - Cohesive visual language across all components and screens
- **Accessible** - Usable by everyone, regardless of abilities or circumstances
async delete(id: number): Promise<boolean> {
try {
await db.users.delete({
where: { id },
});
return true;
} catch (error) {
// If no rows were affected, user didn't exist
if (error.code === 'P2025') {
return false;
}
throw error;
}
}
}

### Error Handling Middleware
```typescript
// src/middleware/errorHandler.ts
import { Request, Response, NextFunction } from 'express';
import { ValidationError, NotFoundError, AuthorizationError } from '../utils/errors';
import logger from '../utils/logger';
export function errorHandler(
err: Error,
req: Request,
res: Response,
next: NextFunction
) {
// Log all errors
logger.error({
message: err.message,
stack: err.stack,
method: req.method,
path: req.path,
ip: req.ip,
userId: req.user?.id,
});
// Handle specific error types
if (err instanceof ValidationError) {
return res.status(400).json({
status: 'error',
message: err.message,
code: 'VALIDATION_ERROR',
});
}
if (err instanceof NotFoundError) {
return res.status(404).json({
status: 'error',
message: err.message,
code: 'NOT_FOUND',
});
}
if (err instanceof AuthorizationError) {
return res.status(403).json({
status: 'error',
message: err.message,
code: 'FORBIDDEN',
});
}
// Handle unexpected errors
const isDevelopment = process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development';
return res.status(500).json({
status: 'error',
message: 'Internal server error',
code: 'SERVER_ERROR',
...(isDevelopment && {
detail: err.message,
stack: err.stack,
}),
});
}
```
### Authentication Implementation
```typescript
// src/middleware/authenticate.ts
import { Request, Response, NextFunction } from 'express';
import jwt from 'jsonwebtoken';
import { UserService } from '../services/userService';
import { AuthorizationError } from '../utils/errors';
interface TokenPayload {
userId: number;
role: string;
iat: number;
exp: number;
}
export function authenticate(
requiredRoles: string[] = []
) {
return async (req: Request, res: Response, next: NextFunction) => {
try {
// Get token from authorization header
const authHeader = req.headers.authorization;
if (!authHeader || !authHeader.startsWith('Bearer ')) {
throw new AuthorizationError('Authentication required');
}
const token = authHeader.split(' ')[1];
// Verify token
let payload: TokenPayload;
try {
payload = jwt.verify(
token,
process.env.JWT_SECRET!
) as TokenPayload;
} catch (err) {
throw new AuthorizationError('Invalid token');
}
// Check token expiration
const now = Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000);
if (payload.exp < now) {
throw new AuthorizationError('Token expired');
}
// Check role if required
if (requiredRoles.length > 0 && !requiredRoles.includes(payload.role)) {
throw new AuthorizationError('Insufficient permissions');
}
// Get user and attach to request
const userService = new UserService();
const user = await userService.findById(payload.userId);
if (!user) {
throw new AuthorizationError('User not found');
}
// Attach user to request object
req.user = user;
next();
} catch (error) {
next(error);
}
};
}
```
### Custom Error Classes
```typescript
// src/utils/errors.ts
export class ValidationError extends Error {
constructor(message: string) {
super(message);
this.name = 'ValidationError';
Object.setPrototypeOf(this, ValidationError.prototype);
}
}
export class NotFoundError extends Error {
constructor(message: string) {
super(message);
this.name = 'NotFoundError';
Object.setPrototypeOf(this, NotFoundError.prototype);
}
}
export class AuthorizationError extends Error {
constructor(message: string) {
super(message);
this.name = 'AuthorizationError';
Object.setPrototypeOf(this, AuthorizationError.prototype);
}
}
export class DatabaseError extends Error {
constructor(message: string) {
super(message);
this.name = 'DatabaseError';
Object.setPrototypeOf(this, DatabaseError.prototype);
}
}
export class ServiceError extends Error {
constructor(message: string) {
super(message);
this.name = 'ServiceError';
Object.setPrototypeOf(this, ServiceError.prototype);
}
}
```

import rateLimit from 'express-rate-limit';
import { errorHandler } from './middleware/errorHandler';
import { notFoundHandler } from './middleware/notFoundHandler';
import { requestLogger } from './middleware/requestLogger';
import routes from './routes';
const app = express();
// Middleware
app.use(helmet()); // Security headers
app.use(cors()); // CORS handling
app.use(compression()); // Response compression
app.use(express.json()); // Parse JSON bodies
app.use(express.urlencoded({ extended: true })); // Parse URL-encoded bodies

// Rate limiting
const limiter = rateLimit({
windowMs: 15 * 60 * 1000, // 15 minutes
max: 100, // 100 requests per IP
standardHeaders: true,
legacyHeaders: false,
message: 'Too many requests from this IP, please try again later',
});
app.use(limiter);
// Routes
app.use('/api', routes);
// Error handling
app.use(notFoundHandler);
app.use(errorHandler);
export default app;
```
### API Route Definition
```typescript
// src/routes/userRoutes.ts
import { Router } from 'express';
import { UserController } from '../controllers/userController';
import { UserService } from '../services/userService';
import { UserRepository } from '../repositories/userRepository';
import { authenticate } from '../middleware/authenticate';

import { createUserSchema, updateUserSchema } from '../validation/userSchemas';
const router = Router();
const userRepository = new UserRepository();
const userService = new UserService(userRepository);
const userController = new UserController(userService);
router.get('/',
authenticate(['ADMIN']),
(req, res, next) => userController.getUsers(req, res, next)
);
router.get('/:id',
authenticate(),
(req, res, next) => userController.getUserById(req, res, next)
);
router.post('/',
validateRequest(createUserSchema),
(req, res, next) => userController.createUser(req, res, next)
);
router.put('/:id',
authenticate(),
validateRequest(updateUserSchema),
(req, res, next) => userController.updateUser(req, res, next)
);
router.delete('/:id',
authenticate(['ADMIN']),
(req, res, next) => userController.deleteUser(req, res, next)
);
export default router;
```
### Dependency Injection Setup
```typescript
// src/config/container.ts
import { Container } from 'inversify';
import { TYPES } from './types';
import { UserController } from '../controllers/userController';
import { UserService } from '../services/userService';
import { UserRepository } from '../repositories/userRepository';
import { DatabaseConnection } from '../config/database';
import { Logger } from '../utils/logger';
const container = new Container();
// Infrastructure
container.bind<DatabaseConnection>(TYPES.DatabaseConnection).to(DatabaseConnection).inSingletonScope();
container.bind<Logger>(TYPES.Logger).to(Logger).inSingletonScope();
// Repositories
container.bind<UserRepository>(TYPES.UserRepository).to(UserRepository).inSingletonScope();
// Services
container.bind<UserService>(TYPES.UserService).to(UserService).inSingletonScope();
// Controllers
container.bind<UserController>(TYPES.UserController).to(UserController).inSingletonScope();
export { container };
