• Add full multi-table schema for collections with normalized design (collections, collection_templates, collection_items, collection_item_versions)
• Implement collection detection and processing in enhancement pipeline for .insertr-add elements
• Add template extraction and storage from existing HTML children with multi-variant support
• Enable collection reconstruction from database on server restart with proper DOM rebuilding
• Extend ContentClient interface with collection operations and full database integration
• Update enhance command to use engine.DatabaseClient for collection persistence support
Major architectural simplification removing content type complexity:
Database Schema:
- Remove 'type' field from content and content_versions tables
- Simplify to pure HTML storage with html_content + original_template
- Regenerate all sqlc models for SQLite and PostgreSQL
API Simplification:
- Remove content type routing and validation
- Eliminate type-specific handlers (text/markdown/structured)
- Unified HTML-first approach for all content operations
- Simplify CreateContent and UpdateContent to HTML-only
Backend Enhancements:
- Update enhancer to only generate data-content-id (no data-content-type)
- Improve container expansion utilities with comprehensive block/inline rules
- Add Phase 3 preparation with boundary-respecting traversal logic
- Strengthen element classification for viable children detection
Documentation:
- Update TODO.md to reflect Phase 1-3 completion status
- Add WORKING_ON.md documenting the architectural transformation
- Mark container expansion and HTML-first architecture as complete
This completes the transition to a unified HTML-first content management system
with automatic style detection and element-based behavior, eliminating the
complex multi-type system in favor of semantic HTML-driven editing.
- Replace value field with html_content for direct HTML storage
- Add original_template field for style detection preservation
- Remove all markdown processing from injector (delete markdown.go)
- Fix critical content extraction/injection bugs in engine
- Add missing UpdateContent PUT handler for content persistence
- Fix API client field names and add updateContent() method
- Resolve content type validation (only allow text/link types)
- Add UUID-based ID generation to prevent collisions
- Complete first-pass processing workflow for unprocessed elements
- Verify end-to-end: Enhancement → Database → API → Editor → Persistence
All 37 files updated for HTML-first content management system.
Phase 3a implementation complete and production ready.
- Move all ContentItem, ContentClient, ContentResponse types to engine/types.go as single source of truth
- Remove duplicate type definitions from content/types.go
- Update all imports across codebase to use engine types
- Enhance engine to extract existing data-content-id from HTML markup
- Simplify frontend to always send html_markup, let server handle ID extraction/generation
- Fix contentId reference errors in frontend error handling
- Add getAttribute helper method to engine for ID extraction
- Add GetAllContent method to engine.DatabaseClient
- Update enhancer to use engine.ContentClient interface
- All builds and API endpoints verified working
This resolves the 400 Bad Request errors and creates a unified architecture where the server is the single source of truth for all ID generation and content type management.
- Remove mock_content setting (working database loop makes it unnecessary)
- Change server.dev_mode to global dev_mode setting for consistency
- Update CLI to use cli.site_id and cli.output for scoped configuration
- Implement database client for CLI enhance command (complete static site loop)
- Update justfile to use INSERTR_DATABASE_PATH environment variable
- Enable multi-site architecture: server is site-agnostic, CLI is site-specific
- Unified insertr.yaml now supports both server and CLI with minimal config
