Replace sequential event IDs in URLs with unique alphanumeric slugs to prevent enumeration attacks. Event URLs now use format /events/{slug}/chat instead of /events/{id}/chat.
Backend changes:
- Add slug field (VARCHAR 50, unique) to Event model
- Create migration with auto-generated 12-char MD5-based slugs for existing events
- Update GET /api/events/:slug endpoint (changed from :id)
- Update GET /api/events/:slug/messages endpoint (changed from :eventId)
- Modify Socket.IO join_event_room to accept slug parameter
- Update send_event_message to use stored event context instead of passing eventId
Frontend changes:
- Update eventsAPI.getBySlug() method (changed from getById)
- Update eventsAPI.getMessages() to use slug parameter
- Change route from /events/:eventId/chat to /events/:slug/chat
- Update EventsPage to navigate using event.slug
- Update EventChatPage to fetch event data via slug and use slug in socket events
Security impact: Prevents attackers from discovering all events by iterating sequential IDs.
Backend:
- Add EventParticipant model to track user-event participation
- Create database migration for event_participants table
- Record participation when user joins event chat via Socket.IO
- Update GET /api/events to include isJoined flag for current user
- Sort events: joined events first, then by start date
- Add authenticate middleware to GET /api/events
Frontend:
- Replace mock events with real API data from backend
- Add loading and error states to EventsPage
- Display "Joined" badge on events user has joined
- Highlight joined events with colored border
- Show "Open chat" vs "Join chat" button text
- Auto-refresh events list when navigating back
When users join an event chat, this is now recorded in the database.
Joined events appear at the top of the list with visual indicators.
- Add country and city fields to User model
- Create database migration for location fields
- Add validation for country and city (max 100 characters)
- Create countries.js with complete list of 195 countries
- Add country dropdown select and city text input to profile page
- Include country and city in GET /api/users/me response
- Update profile form to support location data
Users can now select their country from a dropdown list of all
countries and enter their city name.
- Add YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok URL fields to User model
- Create database migration for social media link columns
- Add custom validators to ensure URLs contain correct domains
- Update profile page with social media input fields
- Include social media URLs in GET /api/users/me response
- Add icons for each social platform in the UI
Users can now add links to their social media profiles. Each field
validates that the URL contains the appropriate domain (e.g.,
instagram.com for Instagram, youtube.com/youtu.be for YouTube).

Phase 1 - Step 2: PostgreSQL Setup
**Infrastructure:**
- Add PostgreSQL 15 Alpine container to docker-compose.yml
- Configure persistent volume for database data
- Update backend Dockerfile with OpenSSL for Prisma compatibility
**Database Schema (Prisma):**
- 6 tables: users, events, chat_rooms, messages, matches, ratings
- Foreign key relationships and cascading deletes
- Performance indexes on frequently queried columns
- Unique constraints for data integrity
**Prisma Setup:**
- Prisma Client for database queries
- Migration system with initial migration
- Seed script with 4 test events and chat rooms
- Database connection utility with singleton pattern
**API Implementation:**
- GET /api/events - List all events (with filtering and sorting)
- GET /api/events/:id - Get single event with relations
- Database connection test on server startup
- Graceful database disconnect on shutdown
**Seed Data:**
- Warsaw Dance Festival 2025
- Swing Camp Barcelona 2025
- Blues Week Herräng 2025
- Krakow Swing Connection 2025
**Testing:**
- Database connection verified ✅
- API endpoints returning data from PostgreSQL ✅
- Migrations applied successfully ✅
All systems operational 🚀
