Radosław Gierwiało d83e4163e5 feat(activity-log): integrate logging across all endpoints (Phase 3)
Added comprehensive activity logging to 14 integration points:

Auth Controller (4 actions):
- AUTH_REGISTER: User registration
- AUTH_LOGIN: User login
- AUTH_VERIFY_EMAIL: Email verification (token & code)
- AUTH_PASSWORD_RESET: Password reset

Events Routes (2 actions):
- EVENT_CHECKIN: User checks into event
- EVENT_LEAVE: User leaves event

Socket Handlers (3 actions):
- EVENT_JOIN_CHAT: User joins event chat room
- EVENT_LEAVE_CHAT: User leaves event chat room
- CHAT_JOIN_ROOM: User joins private match chat

Matches Routes (3 actions):
- MATCH_CREATE: Match request created
- MATCH_ACCEPT: Match request accepted
- MATCH_REJECT: Match request rejected/cancelled

Admin Routes (1 action + security):
- ADMIN_MATCHING_RUN: Admin runs matching algorithm
- Added requireAdmin middleware to all admin routes

All logs include:
- User ID and username (denormalized)
- IP address (X-Forwarded-For aware)
- Action type and resource ID
- HTTP method and path (or SOCKET for WebSocket)
- Contextual metadata (event slugs, match IDs, etc.)

Fire-and-forget pattern ensures logging never blocks requests.

Testing

Tests are written using:

  • Jest - Test framework
  • Supertest - HTTP assertions

Run tests:

npm test

Current test coverage:

  • Health check endpoint
  • 404 error handling
  • CORS configuration
  • JSON body parsing

Docker

Build and run with Docker Compose (from project root):

docker compose up --build

Backend will be available at:

Next Steps

  1. Basic Express setup
  2. Health check endpoint
  3. Unit tests
  4. PostgreSQL connection
  5. Database schema and migrations
  6. Authentication (JWT + bcrypt)
  7. Socket.IO for real-time chat
  8. WebRTC signaling
