Calendar & Contacts API

1. Purpose

This system is a production‑grade Calendar and Contacts REST API written in Go. It is designed for:

  • Human users (web/mobile frontends)
  • AI agents (programmatic automation)
  • Future SaaS expansion
  • High‑integrity multi‑user environments

The API must be stateless, secure, permission‑enforced, timezone‑safe, and scalable.

This document defines EXACTLY what must be built.

2. System Architecture

Client (Web / Mobile / Agent) ↓ HTTP REST API (Go + Chi) ↓ Service Layer (Business Logic) ↓ Repository Layer (SQL via sqlc) ↓ PostgreSQL

Optional components:

  • Redis (rate limiting + job queue)
  • Background Worker (reminders)
  • S3-compatible storage (attachments)
  • WebSocket server (real-time updates)

3. Core Design Principles

  1. Stateless authentication (JWT or API key)
  2. Strict ownership validation
  3. All timestamps stored in UTC
  4. RFC3339 format for API
  5. Soft deletion instead of hard deletion
  6. No trust in client-provided ownership fields
  7. Clear separation between handlers, services, repositories
  8. Indexes on all high-query columns

4. Technology Stack

Language: Go 1.22+ Router: Chi Database: PostgreSQL 15+ Query Layer: sqlc Migrations: golang-migrate Auth: JWT (github.com/golang-jwt/jwt/v5) Password hashing: bcrypt UUID: google/uuid Background jobs: Asynq (Redis) WebSockets: gorilla/websocket (optional) RRULE: rrule-go Storage: S3 compatible (MinIO client)

5. Authentication Model

Two authentication modes must be implemented.

5.1 User Authentication

  • Email + password
  • Password hashed with bcrypt (cost 12+)
  • JWT access token (15 min expiration)
  • Refresh token (7–30 days)

JWT payload: { "user_id": "uuid", "exp": unix_timestamp }

All protected endpoints require: Authorization: Bearer

Middleware must:

  • Validate signature
  • Validate expiration
  • Inject user_id into request context

5.2 Agent Authentication (API Keys)

Agents must be able to:

  • Create account
  • Generate API key
  • Perform scoped operations

API keys:

  • Random 32+ byte token
  • Only hash stored in DB
  • Sent via header: X-API-Key:

Scopes example: { "calendars": ["read", "write"], "events": ["read", "write"], "contacts": ["read", "write"] }

Middleware must validate scope before allowing access.

6. Data Model Overview

7. Full REST Endpoint Specification

All endpoints return JSON. All errors return structured error format.

Error format: { "error": "string", "code": "string", "details": "optional" }

AUTH

POST /auth/register POST /auth/login POST /auth/refresh POST /auth/logout GET /auth/me

API KEYS

POST /api-keys GET /api-keys DELETE /api-keys/{id}

USERS

GET /users/me PUT /users/me DELETE /users/me

CALENDARS

GET /calendars POST /calendars GET /calendars/{id} PUT /calendars/{id} DELETE /calendars/{id}

Sharing POST /calendars/{id}/share GET /calendars/{id}/members DELETE /calendars/{id}/members/{user_id}

EVENTS

GET /events GET /events/{id} POST /events PUT /events/{id} DELETE /events/{id}

Filters: GET /events?start=...&end=... GET /events?calendar_id=... GET /events?search=... GET /events?tag=...

REMINDERS

POST /events/{id}/reminders DELETE /events/{id}/reminders/{id}

ATTENDEES

POST /events/{id}/attendees PUT /events/{id}/attendees/{id} DELETE /events/{id}/attendees/{id}

CONTACTS

GET /contacts POST /contacts GET /contacts/{id} PUT /contacts/{id} DELETE /contacts/{id} GET /contacts?search=...

AVAILABILITY

GET /availability?calendar_id=...&start=...&end=...

BOOKING

POST /calendars/{id}/booking-link GET /booking/{token}/availability POST /booking/{token}/reserve

ICS

GET /calendars/{id}/export.ics POST /calendars/import

8. Index Requirements

Required indexes:

  • events(calendar_id, start_time)
  • events(start_time)
  • calendars(owner_id)
  • contacts(owner_id)
  • api_keys(user_id)

9. Performance Rules

  • All list endpoints paginated (limit + cursor)
  • No N+1 queries
  • All joins explicitly defined
  • Recurring events expanded lazily
  • Reminder queries indexed

10. Security Requirements

  • Rate limiting middleware
  • UUID validation
  • Input validation
  • SQL injection safe queries
  • Password complexity enforcement
  • API key hashing

11. Development Phases

Phase 1

  • Auth
  • Calendars
  • Events
  • Contacts

Phase 2

  • Recurrence
  • Reminders
  • Sharing

Phase 3

  • Booking links
  • Availability
  • ICS
  • WebSockets

This file defines the full system scope.

The next file (logic.md) will define detailed business rules, validation logic, permission flows, recurrence logic, reminder processing, and booking behavior.
