santoshshinde2012/node-boilerplate

Added src/lib/crypto.ts, which provides AES-256-GCM encryption and decryption with PBKDF2 key derivation, and src/lib/logger.ts, which configures a Winston-based logger that writes to console and files while gracefully handling read-only filesystems.

src/lib · high confidence

Added three new middleware components in the src/middleware directory: error-handler.ts provides a centralized, structured error response that omits stack traces in production to prevent information exposure; request-id.ts generates or validates a safe request ID header; and request-logger.ts logs request metadata (method, path, status, duration) with appropriate log levels based on response status codes.

src/middleware · high confidence

A new utility function, getEncryptedText, has been added to src/utils. This function conditionally encrypts input data using a secret key from environment variables, allowing users to enable data protection at runtime via the APPLY\_ENCRYPTION flag.

src/utils · high confidence

Added new TypeScript files defining an \ApiError\ class and \IStandardResponse\ interface to standardize how API errors and success responses are structured across the application.

src/abstractions · high confidence

Added a new SystemStatusController that exposes /system/info, /system/time, /system/usage, /system/process, and /system/error. In production, the /info and /process endpoints automatically strip sensitive details (network interfaces, user info, environment variables) to prevent information leakage, while development mode returns the full data.

src/components/system-status · high confidence

The project has been upgraded to a production-ready Node.js + TypeScript boilerplate with hardened security defaults. A hardened multi-stage Dockerfile runs the app as a non-root user with dropped Linux capabilities, read-only filesystems, and a built-in healthcheck. The runtime enforces a global rate limiter, body-size limits, allow-listed CORS origins, and encrypted response payloads. System diagnostic endpoints are filtered in production, and the app fails fast on missing or invalid configuration. The build system now uses TypeScript's native module resolution (ES2022/Node16) and a flat ESLint config, while legacy tooling (tslint, index.js) has been removed.

(repo-wide) · high confidence

The repository has removed the \build-scripts/version-gen.js\ build script and the \public/scripts/RecordRTC.js\ and \public/scripts/RecordRTC.min.js\ client-side recording libraries. This change eliminates the legacy RecordRTC-based audio, video, and canvas recording capabilities from the application.

(repo-wide) · high confidence

The Keycloak controller and associated API routes have been removed from the application. This eliminates the server-side endpoints for listing users and groups via the Keycloak Admin API, meaning the application no longer exposes or manages Keycloak user and group data through these specific routes.

src/components/keyclock · high confidence

A new centralized configuration module has been introduced to manage application settings, supporting environment-specific behavior for development, test, staging, and production. This change enforces stricter security defaults in production, including rate limiting, CORS origin validation, and encryption key validation, while providing a structured interface for application settings such as port, log level, and system route exposure.

src/config · high confidence

The project now includes automated checks that run before commits and pushes. A pre-commit hook executes 'npm run precommit' to validate changes, and a pre-push hook runs 'npm run prepush' to verify the state before pushing. These hooks are set up with executable permissions to ensure they run automatically.

.husky · high confidence

The application now includes robust production hardening, including security headers via Helmet, rate limiting, and safe CORS configuration. The server startup logic has been updated to handle graceful shutdowns and enforce HTTP timeouts to prevent slow-loris and stuck connections. Additionally, the routing system has been refactored to use a controller-based approach with a /v1 prefix, and Swagger documentation is now mounted for non-production environments.

src · medium confidence

A new abstract BaseController class has been added to the components directory, providing a centralized way to send encrypted API responses. This change introduces a shared implementation for the send method, which handles response status and encryption, reducing duplication across controllers.

src/components · medium confidence

The \environment.local.ts\ and \environment.ts\ files in the \src/environments\ directory have been deleted. This removes the previous mechanism for loading environment variables (including Keycloak and port configurations) and the function that selected the environment configuration based on \NODE\_ENV\.

src/environments · high confidence

Added integration test helper for application setup; Added integration tests for app status endpoints; Added unit tests for SystemStatusController and utility functions; Added unit tests for crypto and route registration; Added unit tests for the error handler middleware.

The project's dependencies have been significantly updated. Runtime packages like Express, Winston, and Dotenv have been upgraded to their latest major versions, while development tools such as TypeScript, ESLint, Prettier, and Jest have also been updated to their newest releases. This includes a major upgrade to the ESLint configuration, replacing TSLint with the modern typescript-eslint and @eslint/js packages.
