# EasyStream Conflict Resolution - Implementation Checklist

## Overview

This document provides a step-by-step checklist for implementing all conflict resolutions and ensuring EasyStream is fully updated to modern standards.

**Status:** ✅ Critical Infrastructure Complete - Ready for Final Updates

---

## ✅ COMPLETED - Critical Infrastructure

### 1. Session Helper Functions ✅
- **File Created:** `f_core/f_functions/functions.session.php`
- **Purpose:** Standardizes session variable access across application
- **Key Functions:**
  - `getCurrentUserId()` - Get user ID from session
  - `setCurrentUserId($id)` - Set user ID in session
  - `isUserLoggedIn()` - Check if authenticated
  - `clearUserSession()` - Clear all session data
  - `validateUserSession()` - Check for hijacking attempts

### 2. API Helper Functions ✅
- **File Created:** `f_core/f_functions/functions.api.php`
- **Purpose:** Standardizes API responses and handling
- **Key Functions:**
  - `sendApiSuccess($data)` - Send success response
  - `sendApiError($message, $code)` - Send error response
  - `requireAuth()` - Require authentication
  - `validateApiMethod($methods)` - Validate HTTP method
  - `getPaginationParams()` - Get pagination data

### 3. Config Core Updated ✅
- **File Updated:** `f_core/config.core.php`
- **Change:** Added includes for new helper functions
- **Lines Added:**
  ```php
  require_once 'f_core/f_functions/functions.session.php';
  require_once 'f_core/f_functions/functions.api.php';
  ```

### 4. Account.php Fixed ✅
- **File Updated:** `f_modules/m_frontend/m_acct/account.php`
- **Issue:** Was calling non-existent `VLogin` class
- **Fix:** Now uses `VAuth::getInstance()` and `getCurrentUserId()`

## 🔄 PENDING - API Endpoint Updates

### Update Pattern for All API Endpoints

**Files to Update:**
- ✅ `api/videos.php`
- ✅ `api/user.php`
- ✅ `api/comments.php`
- ✅ `api/subscriptions.php`
- ⏸️ `api/privacy.php`
- ⏸️ `api/upload/progress.php`

**Find and Replace:**

**OLD:**
```php
if (!$userId && isset($_SESSION['USER_ID'])) {
    $userId = $_SESSION['USER_ID'];
} elseif (!$userId && isset($_SESSION['usr_id'])) {
    $userId = $_SESSION['usr_id'];
}
```

**NEW:**
```php
if (!$userId) {
    $userId = getCurrentUserId();
}
```

```

**Replace With:**
```php
$user_id = getCurrentUserId();
// OR
if (isUserLoggedIn())
```

## Performance Testing

### Before/After Metrics

**Measure These:**

1. **Page Load Time**
```bash
# Test browse page
curl -o /dev/null -s -w 'Total: %{time_total}s\n' http://localhost/browse.php
```

2. **API Response Time**
```bash
# Test videos API
curl -o /dev/null -s -w 'Total: %{time_total}s\n' http://localhost/api/videos.php
```

3. **JavaScript Bundle Size**
```bash
# Check total JS size
du -sh f_scripts/fe/js/*.js
```

4. **Database Queries**
```sql
-- Enable slow query log
SET GLOBAL slow_query_log = 'ON';
SET GLOBAL long_query_time = 0.5;

-- Check log after page load
SELECT * FROM mysql.slow_log ORDER BY start_time DESC LIMIT 10;
```

### Target Metrics

- Page load time: < 2 seconds
- API response time: < 300ms
- JavaScript size: < 200KB (after jQuery removal)
- Database queries per page: < 10

---

## Rollback Plan

### If Issues Occur

1. **Immediate Rollback**
```bash
git stash
git checkout HEAD~1
```

2. **Partial Rollback (specific file)**
```bash
git checkout HEAD -- path/to/file.php
```

3. **Check Git Status**
```bash
git status
git log --oneline -10
```

### Backup Strategy

**Before Each Major Change:**
```bash
# Create backup branch
git checkout -b backup-before-migration
git commit -am "Backup before migration"
git checkout main

# Or create manual backup
cp -r /path/to/easystream /path/to/easystream-backup-$(date +%Y%m%d)
```
