Strapi Integration - Complete ✅

What Was Added

Backend Updates

Fixed SQLite enum issue: Changed Article.status from enum type to text type (SQLite doesn't support enum)
Fixed entity initialization order: Moved Author and Category definitions before Article to avoid circular reference errors
Fixed SQLite array issue: Changed tags from simple-array to text type (SQLite doesn't support arrays)
Added Strapi integration:
- strapi.service.ts - Service for syncing content from Strapi
- strapi.controller.ts - Webhook endpoint controller
- strapi.module.ts - Module containing Strapi functionality
Installed dependencies: @nestjs/axios for HTTP requests to Strapi API
Updated CORS: Added Strapi URL to allowed origins
Updated environment variables: Added STRAPI_URL and STRAPI_API_TOKEN

Database Schema

Authors table with id, name, slug, bio, avatar, isActive, timestamps
Categories table with id, name, slug, description, parentId, order, timestamps
Articles table with id, title, content, excerpt, slug, featuredImage, tags (text), status (text), views, strapiId, authorId, categoryId, timestamps

Configuration

Updated backend/src/app.module.ts to include StrapiModule
Updated backend/.env.example with Strapi configuration
Created STRAPI_INTEGRATION.md with detailed setup instructions
Updated SETUP_COMPLETE.md with Strapi integration info

Next Steps

Start all services:

# Terminal 1 - Backend
cd backend
npm run start:dev

# Terminal 2 - Frontend
cd frontend
npm run dev

# Terminal 3 - Strapi
cd cms/cms
npm run develop

Configure Strapi (see STRAPI_INTEGRATION.md):
- Create content types: Article, Author, Category, Tag
- Create API token
- Configure webhook pointing to backend
- Add API token to backend .env
Test the integration:
- Create an article in Strapi
- Publish it
- Check backend: curl http://localhost:3000/api/v1/articles
- Verify it appears in frontend

Webhook Flow

Content created/updated in Strapi → 2. Strapi sends webhook to backend → 3. Backend fetches content from Strapi API → 4. Backend syncs to SQLite database → 5. Frontend queries backend API

API Endpoints Added

POST /api/v1/webhooks/strapi/article - Handle Strapi webhooks
POST /api/v1/webhooks/strapi/sync/all - Manual full sync trigger
