Task Management API 🚀

Overview 🌟

The Task Management API is a RESTful API built using the Gin framework in Go. It provides a robust backend for managing tasks and projects, featuring user authentication, role-based access control, and integration with Google OAuth for enhanced security and user experience.

Getting Started 🛠️

Refer to the Project Setup section in the original documentation for instructions on setting up the environment and dependencies.

Features ⚙️

• User Authentication:

  • Supports JWT-based authentication for secure user sessions.
  • Implements OAuth 2.0 for Google authentication.

• Role-Based Access Control (RBAC):

  • Differentiate user roles (admin and regular users) with specific permissions for managing projects and tasks. 👥

• CRUD Operations:

  • Full support for creating, reading, updating, and deleting tasks and projects.
  • API endpoints include:

  Authentication 🔑

  • /auth/register - New user registration.
  • /auth/login - User login and JWT issuance.
  • /auth/google/login - Google OAuth login.
  • /auth/google/callback - Google callback.

  Protected Routes 🛡️

  • /api/projects - Manage projects (create, read, update, delete).
  • /api/tasks - Manage tasks (create, read, update, delete).

  Admin Routes 👨‍💼

  • /admin/users/register - Admin user registration.

• Input Validation and Error Handling:

  • Ensures incoming data is validated and errors are handled gracefully.

• Middleware Support:

  • Integrated middleware for logging, CORS handling, and request parsing.
  • Custom middleware for JWT validation and rate-limiting.

• Secure Communication:

  • All endpoints are protected and require authentication.
