import { App } from 'backan'

const id    = 'delete'
const route = new App(  )

route.add(
 {
  method    : 'delete',
  path      : '/:id',
  summary   : 'Delete resource by ID',
  request   : { params: route.validation.object( { id: route.validation.string() } ) },
  responses : {
   200 : route.response.responseJSONSuccess(
    route.validation.object( {
     deleted : route.validation.boolean(),
     id      : route.validation.string(),
    } ),
   ),
   400 : route.response.responseJSONError400,
   404 : route.response.responseJSONError404,
   500 : route.response.responseJSONError500,
  },
  tags : [ id ],
 },
 async c => {

  try {

   const { id } = c.req.valid( 'param' )

   console.log( `Deleting resource with ID: ${id}` )

   // Simulate deletion
   return route.response.addSuccessResponse( c, {
    deleted : true,
    id,
   } )

  }
  catch ( e ) {

   // if ( e instanceof SomeValidationError ) {

   //  return route.response.add400Error( c, e )

   // }

   return route.response.add500Error( c, e )

  }
