COLLABORATION FEATURE FIXES:
1. Database Layer
- Created migration 010_create_collaboration_tables.ts
- Tables: collaboration_sessions, collaboration_participants
- Indexes for performance on session_id, user_id, status, is_active
- Foreign keys to users and labs with CASCADE delete
- Session status ENUM: active, ended, scheduled
- Participant role ENUM: host, participant, viewer
- Screen sharing fields for WebRTC support
2. Data Models (NEW)
- CollaborationSession model with full validation
- CollaborationParticipant model with tracking
- Associations: belongsTo User (host), belongsTo Lab, hasMany Participants
- TypeScript interfaces and creation types exported
- Registered models in index.ts
3. Controller Implementation (NEW - 550+ lines)
- CollaborationController with 6 endpoints:
* getSessions(): Get user sessions with filters
* getActiveSessions(): Browse active public sessions
* getSession(): Get specific session with access control
* createSession(): Create session with host auto-join
* joinSession(): Join with capacity and status validation
* leaveSession(): Leave with auto-end on host exit
* endSession(): Host-only session termination
- Full error handling and logging
- Role-based access control (host, participant, admin)
- Participant capacity limits (2-50 users)
- Auto-cleanup when session empties
4. Routes Update
- Replaced ALL stub implementations (were returning 501 errors)
- Added Joi validation schemas for session creation
- GET /api/collaboration/sessions (user sessions)
- GET /api/collaboration/sessions/active (public browse)
- GET /api/collaboration/sessions/:sessionId (single session)
- POST /api/collaboration/create (with validation)
- POST /api/collaboration/:sessionId/join
- POST /api/collaboration/:sessionId/leave
- DELETE /api/collaboration/:sessionId (end session)
5. Database Configuration
- Added CollaborationSession and CollaborationParticipant to Sequelize models array
- Tables will auto-create on server start (development mode)
- Full model associations initialized
WEBSOCKET INTEGRATION:
- Backend WebSocket already has full collaboration support
- Frontend can now create sessions via REST API and use WebSocket for real-time features
WHAT WAS BROKEN:
- All collaboration REST endpoints returned 501 not yet implemented
- No database tables or models existed
- Frontend could not create, join, or manage sessions
WHAT NOW WORKS:
- Full CRUD operations for collaboration sessions
- Database persistence with proper relationships
- User sessions with host/participant roles
- Public session browsing
- Capacity management and access control
- Auto-cleanup on disconnect
FILES CREATED:
- backend/src/database/migrations/010_create_collaboration_tables.ts
- backend/src/models/CollaborationSession.ts
- backend/src/models/CollaborationParticipant.ts
- backend/src/controllers/CollaborationController.ts
FILES MODIFIED:
- backend/src/routes/collaboration.routes.ts (complete rewrite)
- backend/src/models/index.ts (added exports)
- backend/src/config/database.ts (added models to Sequelize)
