Method RecordTransaction

api/transactions.go:113–137

RecordTransaction handles the recording of a new transaction. It binds the incoming JSON request to a RecordTransaction object, validates it, and then records the transaction. If any errors occur during validation or recording, it responds with an appropriate error message. Parameters: - c: The Gin

(c *gin.Context)

// - 400 Bad Request: If there's an error in binding JSON or validating the transaction.
// - 201 Created: If the transaction is successfully recorded.
func (a Api) RecordTransaction(c *gin.Context) {
	var newTransaction model2.RecordTransaction
	// Bind the incoming JSON request to the newTransaction model
	if err := c.ShouldBindJSON(&newTransaction); err != nil {
		c.JSON(http.StatusBadRequest, gin.H{"errors": err.Error()})
		return
	}

	// Validate the transaction data
	err := newTransaction.ValidateRecordTransaction()
	if err != nil {
		handleRecordTransactionValidationError(c, err)
		return
	}

	// Record the transaction using the LedgerForge service
	resp, err := a.ledgerforge.RecordTransaction(c.Request.Context(), newTransaction.ToTransaction())
	if err != nil {
		c.JSON(http.StatusBadRequest, gin.H{"error": err.Error()})
		return
	}

	// Return a response with the recorded transaction, properly transformed
	c.JSON(http.StatusCreated, transformTransaction(resp))
}
