Event Management API

Welcome to the Event Management API!
This project is designed to help manage events, users, speakers, attendees, and related functionalities with a clean and modern architecture.

🛠️ Technologies Used

• .NET 8 with Entity Framework Core 8 for configuration and database management.
• SQL Server as the database provider.
• Microsoft Identity for user authentication and management.
• FluentValidation for validating inputs.
• AutoMapper for object mapping.
• Serilog for logging.
• JWT & Refresh Token for secure authentication.
• MediatR: Use MediatR to implement CQRS (Command Query Responsibility Segregation) for clean and organized code.
• CQRS Pattern to separate query and command operations.
• MailKit & SMTP for sending email notifications.
• Repository Pattern for data access.
• Clean Code & Clean Architecture for maintainable and scalable design.
• XML Documentation for service classes.

🔑 Key Features

1. User Management:

   • Register, log in, and manage users with roles like Admin, Speaker, Attendee, and General User.
   • Custom middlewares to update the last login date and handle authentication (e.g., AuthFilter).

2. Event Management:

   • Create, view, update, and delete events.
   • Associate speakers, attendees, and categories with events.

3. Speaker Management:

   • Manage speaker profiles and their association with events.
   • Add, update, or delete speaker details.

4. Attendee Management:

   • Users can RSVP for events.
   • Tracks attendance and engagement.

5. Comments:

   • Add, update, and delete comments for events.

6. Categories:

   • Manage categories for events.

7. Custom Middleware:

   • ErrorHandlerMiddleware: Handles API errors and formats responses.
   • RateLimitingMiddleware: Prevents too many requests from a single user.
   • UpdateLastLoginMiddleware: Updates user login timestamps.

8. Custom Exception Handling:

   • Includes exceptions like TooManyRequestException.

9. Localization:

   • Uses Localizer for multi-language support.

10. Database:

    • Includes seed data for default users and categories (Seeder).
    • Supports views (e.g., ViewUserEventEngagementSummary) and stored procedures (e.g., SP_GetUserEventEngagementDetails).

11. Validation & Pipeline Behavior:

    • Implements ValidationBehavior<TRequest, TResponse> for request validation.
