Events System - Comprehensive Bug Analysis

CRITICAL BUGS IDENTIFIED:

1. MAJOR: Database Architecture Flaw

File: server/utils/nocodb-events.ts Issue: The system attempts to use the same table for both Events and RSVPs, causing data corruption Severity: CRITICAL - System Breaking Status: PARTIALLY FIXED - Still has configuration issues

2. CRITICAL: Configuration Missing

File: nuxt.config.ts Issue: Missing events-specific NocoDB configuration properties Impact: Events system cannot initialize properly Missing Properties:

  • eventsBaseId
  • eventsTableId
  • rsvpTableId

3. MAJOR: RSVP Functions Wrong Table

File: server/utils/nocodb-events.ts Issue: All RSVP functions still point to events table instead of RSVP table Impact: RSVPs stored in wrong table, data corruption

4. CRITICAL: Type Safety Issues

File: server/utils/nocodb-events.ts Issue: Multiple unknown types causing runtime errors Impact: Calendar fails to load, RSVP system breaks

5. MAJOR: API Endpoint Issues

Files: All server/api/events/ files Issue: Recently fixed authentication but still has logical bugs Remaining Issues:

  • No validation of event data
  • Missing error handling for database failures
  • Inconsistent response formats

6. CRITICAL: Frontend Component Bugs

File: components/CreateEventDialog.vue Issues:

  • Form validation insufficient
  • Missing error handling for API failures
  • Date/time formatting issues
  • No loading states for better UX

7. MAJOR: Calendar Component Issues

File: components/EventCalendar.vue Issues:

  • Event transformation logic flawed
  • Mobile view switching problems
  • FullCalendar integration missing key features
  • No error boundaries for calendar failures

8. CRITICAL: Event Details Dialog Bugs

File: components/EventDetailsDialog.vue Issues:

  • RSVP submission hardcoded member_id as empty string
  • Payment info hardcoded instead of from config
  • Missing proper error handling
  • No loading states

9. MAJOR: UseEvents Composable Issues

File: composables/useEvents.ts Issues:

  • Calendar events function not properly integrated
  • Cache key generation problematic
  • Error propagation inconsistent
  • Date handling utilities missing

10. CRITICAL: Environment Configuration Incomplete

File: nuxt.config.ts and .env.example Issues:

  • Missing events-specific environment variables
  • No fallback values for development
  • Events base/table IDs not configured

ARCHITECTURAL PROBLEMS:

1. Data Model Confusion

The system tries to store Events and RSVPs in the same table, which is fundamentally wrong:

  • Events need their own table with event-specific fields
  • RSVPs need a separate table with foreign key to events
  • Current mixing causes data corruption and query failures

2. Configuration Inconsistency

Events system references configuration properties that don't exist:

  • config.nocodb.eventsBaseId - doesn't exist
  • config.nocodb.eventsTableId - doesn't exist
  • config.nocodb.rsvpTableId - doesn't exist

3. API Response Inconsistency

Different endpoints return different response formats:

  • Some return { success, data, message }
  • Others return raw NocoDB responses
  • Frontend expects consistent format

4. Frontend State Management Issues

  • No centralized error handling
  • Inconsistent loading states
  • Cache invalidation problems
  • Component state synchronization issues

IMMEDIATE FIXES REQUIRED:

Phase 1 - Critical Infrastructure

  1. Fix NocoDB configuration in nuxt.config.ts
  2. Separate Events and RSVPs into different tables/functions
  3. Fix all TypeScript errors
  4. Ensure basic API endpoints work

Phase 2 - API Stability

  1. Standardize API response formats
  2. Add proper validation and error handling
  3. Fix authentication integration
  4. Test all CRUD operations

Phase 3 - Frontend Polish

  1. Fix component error handling
  2. Add proper loading states
  3. Fix form validation
  4. Test calendar integration

Phase 4 - Integration Testing

  1. End-to-end event creation flow
  2. RSVP submission and management
  3. Calendar display and interaction
  4. Mobile responsiveness

RECOMMENDED APPROACH:

  1. Stop using current events system - it will cause data corruption
  2. Fix configuration first - add missing environment variables
  3. Separate data models - create proper Events and RSVPs tables
  4. Rebuild API layer - ensure consistency and reliability
  5. Fix frontend components - proper error handling and state management
  6. Full integration testing - ensure entire flow works end-to-end

ESTIMATED EFFORT:

  • Critical fixes: 4-6 hours
  • Full system stability: 8-12 hours
  • Polish and testing: 4-6 hours
  • Total: 16-24 hours of focused development time

RISK ASSESSMENT:

  • Current system: HIGH RISK - will cause data loss/corruption
  • After Phase 1 fixes: MEDIUM RISK - basic functionality restored
  • After Phase 2 fixes: LOW RISK - production ready
  • After Phase 3-4: MINIMAL RISK - polished and tested
