# @clipwhisperer/common

Shared utility library and schema definitions for the ClipWhisperer microservices ecosystem.

## 🎯 Purpose

The `@clipwhisperer/common` library provides shared functionality, type definitions, and validation schemas used across all ClipWhisperer microservices:

- **Hub** - Content management and analytics
- **Narrator** - Text-to-speech processing
- **Renderer** - API rendering and responses
- **Scraper** - Data extraction from external sources

npm test -- validation.test.ts
```

## 📊 Usage Examples

### Schema Validation

```typescript
import { validateVideoData, VideoDataSchema } from "@clipwhisperer/common";

// Validate video data
const videoData = {
  title: "Sample Video",
  duration: 120,
  source: "youtube",
  url: "https://youtube.com/watch?v=example",
};

try {
  const validatedData = validateVideoData(videoData);
  console.log("Valid video data:", validatedData);
} catch (error) {
  console.error("Validation failed:", error.message);
}
```

### Utility Functions

```typescript
import { sanitizeInput, generateId, formatDate } from "@clipwhisperer/common";

// Sanitize user input
const cleanInput = sanitizeInput('<script>alert("xss")</script>Hello World');
// Result: "Hello World"

// Generate unique ID
const videoId = generateId("video");
// Result: "video_1a2b3c4d-5e6f-7g8h-9i0j-k1l2m3n4o5p6"

// Format date consistently
const formattedDate = formatDate(new Date(), "iso");
// Result: "2024-01-15T10:30:00.000Z"
```

### Type Definitions

```typescript
import {
  VideoData,
  NarratorRequest,
  AnalyticsMetrics,
} from "@clipwhisperer/common";

// Use shared types
const video: VideoData = {
  id: "video_123",
  title: "Example Video",
  duration: 180,
  status: "processed",
  metadata: {
    views: 1000,
    likes: 50,
    source: "youtube",
  },
};

const narratorJob: NarratorRequest = {
  text: "Hello, this is a sample narration.",
  voice: "Matthew",
  engine: "generative",
  format: "mp3",
  options: {
    speed: 1.0,
    pitch: 0,
  },
};
```

## 📈 Version Management

The Common library follows semantic versioning and is automatically managed across all ClipWhisperer services:

```bash
# Check current versions across services
cd ../Utils && npm start
# Press Enter to see current versions

# Update Common library in all services
cd ../Utils && npm start
> 2 (update @clipwhisperer/common library)

# Check for version inconsistencies
cd ../Utils && npm start
```

## 🤝 Contributing

### Development Workflow

1. **Make changes** to the Common library
2. **Run tests** to ensure nothing breaks: `npm test`
3. **Build the project**: `npm run build`
4. **Update version**: `npm version patch`
5. **Publish to npm**: `npm publish`
6. **Update across services**:
   ```bash
   cd ../Utils
   npm start
   > 2 (update Common library)
   ```

### Guidelines

- **Maintain backward compatibility** when possible
- **Add tests** for new functionality
- **Update TypeScript types** for new schemas
- **Document breaking changes** in version notes
- **Test integration** with all services before publishing
