This is really only for check if a particular channel exists for /messages/recent's backend
* Flattening db-lib::Message::last_n
SHould make code more readable as it now has a more linear flow
* api::Messages::recent_messages now 404's when a channel that doesn't exist is request
Better matching against return types so we're not throwing away errors
This just entails swapping the if let for a match statement
* db-lib::Message::send has more updated docs on what variants of Response it returns
* api::messages::send_message has better error logging now and more relevant comments
This is more heavily used in Message::send as a way of discerning "real" server errors
from those that are caused by user input. The name itself might not be super fitting either
* Moving code for inserting textual messages into its own function
This splits up the logic a bit for Message::send but this segment of logic is also
much simpler than that of file upload
* Flattening Message::send overall
Keeping this function as flat as can be is crucial as it is one of the heavier+most
important funcs in the whole JSON API codebase
Files are now also generated correctly and asynchronously
This api method is made for clients to easily say "give me the n[1,100] latest
messages in some channel
This commit contains code that is largely untested but contains some base code
such that I can correct issues in the next _tested_ commit
* Renamed db helper function to be (debatably) more clear in its intentions
That function and everything in that module is quickly become awful however
+ Adding some notes for later db-lib development
! Initial id size will stay as u64 but u128 are easily the next major change
This change shouldn't break clients written in high level languages since most already use 128's under the hood anyway
- This commit also removes the auto_increment flag from basically everything that uses RNG id's
! Requirements for variable message fetching not yet met
! /message/get?id=<id> needs a way of passing back file contents
! The file upload is sketchy at best and not necessarily guaranteed to sync the
database with the file system
Removig chrono from api code as well
Removing chrono as dep in api code
+ Using Content-Type for /message/send content type
Updating cargo lists for removal of fluff deps
Removal of more fluff
Addking makefile to avoid compiling debug builds by accident while developing
➕ Moving Messages struct in db-lib to root for less namespacing uglyness
➖ Removing an whole unused trait
✨ Message::get_time_range now returns a special 'UserMessage' struct that includes the name of the author
❗ More code must be removed from db-lib since a ton of the trait methods aren't used anymore
