Job Listing Retrieval and Pagination Implementation

Closes #8

Overview

This pull request implements a comprehensive job listing retrieval and pagination system that allows freelancers and guests to efficiently browse job postings with advanced filtering capabilities. The implementation provides a public API endpoint with robust pagination, sorting, and filtering options.

Changes Made

Core Implementation

  • Enhanced PaginationDto: Created a comprehensive data transfer object supporting pagination parameters, sorting options, and extensive filtering capabilities including search, location, company, job type, experience level, salary range, remote work options, and skill-based filtering.

  • Updated JobsService: Implemented the findAll method with advanced query building capabilities using TypeORM QueryBuilder. The method supports:

    • Pagination with configurable page size (max 100 items per page)
    • Sorting by multiple fields (creation date, title, budget, deadline, view count, application count, salary range)
    • Default sorting by newest jobs first (createdAt DESC)
    • Public access filtering (only shows OPEN/ACTIVE jobs accepting applications)
    • Full-text search across title, description, and company fields
    • Location-based filtering with ILIKE pattern matching
    • Salary range filtering with min/max constraints
    • Boolean filters for remote work, urgent jobs, and featured positions
    • Skills filtering supporting comma-separated skill lists
  • Enhanced JobsController: Updated the controller to support the new pagination system with comprehensive API documentation including:

    • Detailed OpenAPI/Swagger documentation describing all query parameters
    • Response schema documentation showing the expected pagination structure
    • Public endpoint accessibility without authentication requirements
    • Professional API descriptions and examples

Technical Improvements

  • Type Safety: All DTOs include proper validation decorators and type transformations
  • Database Optimization: Uses efficient QueryBuilder patterns for complex filtering
  • Response Structure: Returns standardized pagination metadata including total count, current page, items per page, and total pages
  • Error Handling: Maintains existing error handling patterns while adding new validation
  • Backward Compatibility: Changes are additive and maintain compatibility with existing API consumers

API Endpoint Details

The main endpoint GET /jobs now supports the following query parameters:

  • Pagination: page (default: 1), limit (default: 10, max: 100)
  • Sorting: sortBy (createdAt, title, budget, deadline, status, viewCount, applicationCount, salaryMin, salaryMax), sortOrder (asc, desc)
  • Filtering: search, location, company, jobType, experienceLevel, salaryMin, salaryMax, isRemote, isUrgent, isFeatured, skills

Response Format

The API returns a structured response with pagination metadata including the job listings array, total count, current page information, and calculated total pages for efficient navigation.

Breaking Changes

None. This implementation is fully backward compatible and only extends existing functionality.

Future Enhancements

The pagination system is designed to be extensible and can easily accommodate additional filtering options, custom sorting algorithms, and advanced search capabilities as requirements evolve.

190-200: Add missing DB migration and audit status-handling logic

No migration was found for the new EXPIRED/ARCHIVED enum values—without one, writes will fail. Please:

• Create a new migration (e.g. src/migration/XXXX-add-job-status-values.ts) with:

await queryRunner.query(`ALTER TYPE "jobstatus" ADD VALUE 'expired'`);
await queryRunner.query(`ALTER TYPE "jobstatus" ADD VALUE 'archived'`);

• Audit all code that filters or transitions by JobStatus and update as needed:

  • src/job-posting/job.service.ts (where status = JobStatus.ACTIVE)
  • src/jobs/jobs.service.ts
    – activeStatuses: [JobStatus.OPEN, JobStatus.ACTIVE]
    – status checks at lines ~744, ~859, ~867, ~965
  • src/job-posting/entities/job.entity.ts (default = JobStatus.OPEN)
  • src/job-posting/dto/create-job.dto.ts (default = JobStatus.ACTIVE)
  • src/applications/entities/application.entity.ts (enum column default)

Ensure any schedulers or transition workflows also handle the new statuses before deploying.

83-83: Consider disabling synchronize in production.

The synchronize: true setting automatically synchronizes database schema changes, which can be dangerous in production environments as it may cause data loss.

Consider using environment-based configuration:

- synchronize: true,
+ synchronize: configService.get<string>('NODE_ENV') !== 'production',
src/jobs/jobs.service.ts (1)

228-241: Consider using database transactions for escrow operations

The escrow creation and job update should be wrapped in a transaction to ensure consistency.

Wrap the operations in a transaction:

const queryRunner = this.dataSource.createQueryRunner();
await queryRunner.connect();
await queryRunner.startTransaction();

try {
  const savedEscrow = await queryRunner.manager.save(escrow);
  job.escrowId = savedEscrow.id;
  await queryRunner.manager.save(job);
  await queryRunner.commitTransaction();
  return savedEscrow;
} catch (err) {
  await queryRunner.rollbackTransaction();
  throw err;
} finally {
  await queryRunner.release();
}
🧹 Nitpick comments (6)
src/jobs/dto/initiate-payment.dto.ts (1)

20-20: Consider adding JSDoc documentation for clarity.

The CreateEscrowDto extension is well-structured but would benefit from documentation explaining its purpose and relationship to InitiatePaymentDto.

+/**
+ * DTO for creating escrow payments, inheriting all validation rules from InitiatePaymentDto
+ */
 export class CreateEscrowDto extends InitiatePaymentDto {}
src/jobs/dto/release-payment.dto.ts (1)

1-9: Add API documentation for better maintainability.

The DTO implementation is clean and properly validated. Consider adding Swagger decorators and JSDoc comments for better API documentation and developer experience.

+import { ApiProperty } from '@nestjs/swagger';
 import { IsUUID } from 'class-validator';

+/**
+ * DTO for releasing escrow payments
+ */
 export class ReleaseEscrowDto {
+  @ApiProperty({
+    description: 'UUID of the escrow to be released',
+    example: '123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174000'
+  })
   @IsUUID()
   escrowId: string;

+  @ApiProperty({
+    description: 'UUID of the user releasing the escrow',
+    example: '123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174001'
+  })
   @IsUUID()
   releasedBy: string;
 }
src/jobs/entities/escrow.entity.ts (1)

55-56: Consider adding length constraints for data integrity.

The disputeReason field is well-designed for capturing dispute details. Consider adding a reasonable length constraint to prevent excessively large entries that could impact database performance.

-@Column({ type: 'text', nullable: true })
+@Column({ type: 'varchar', length: 1000, nullable: true })
disputeReason?: string;
src/admin/admin.module.ts (1)

11-11: Remove unused import.

The JwtAuthGuard import is no longer needed since it was removed from the providers array.

-import { JwtAuthGuard } from '../auth/guards/jwt-auth.guard';
src/auth/auth.controller.ts (1)

23-23: Remove unused imports.

Static analysis correctly identifies several unused imports that should be cleaned up:

-  ApiBearerAuth,
-import type { RegisterDto } from './dto/register-user.dto';
-import { User } from './entities/user.entity';
-import type { GetUsersDto } from './dto/get-users.dto';
-import type { SuspendUserDto } from './dto/suspend-user.dto';

src/mail/mail.service.ts (1)

82-100: Consider adding template name validation for security

While the current implementation is safe since all callers use hardcoded template names, consider adding validation to prevent potential path traversal attacks if this method usage expands in the future.

 private renderTemplate(
   templateName: string,
   context: Record<string, any>,
 ): string {
   try {
+    // Validate template name to prevent path traversal
+    if (templateName.includes('..') || templateName.includes('/')) {
+      throw new Error('Invalid template name');
+    }
     const templatePath = path.join(

src/main.ts (1)

12-12: Confirm TS compiler config supports default import of CommonJS module.

compression is published as a CommonJS module that exports a single function.
Using a default import (import compression from 'compression') works only when esModuleInterop or allowSyntheticDefaultImports is enabled (or when using module: node16/nodenext). Otherwise, compression will be undefined at runtime and app.use(compression()) (l. 39) will crash.

Please verify that tsconfig.json has the appropriate options or revert to the safe namespace form:

-import compression from 'compression';
+import * as compression from 'compression';
src/feed/entities/comment.entity.ts (1)

2-2: Relative path switch is correct and improves modularity

./post.entity resolves to the same directory, removing the brittle absolute alias. No further action needed.

src/feed/entities/like.entity.ts (1)

9-9: Import path updated consistently

Good catch aligning the Post import with the co-located entity files.

src/feed/entities/savedpost.entity.ts (1)

8-8: Consistent relative import for Post

Change is sound and mirrors the other feed entities.

src/data-source.ts (1)

9-9: LGTM! Entity additions are properly configured.

The new SkillVerification and Like entities are correctly imported and added to the TypeORM entities array, ensuring proper database integration.

Also applies to: 12-12, 38-38, 41-41

src/jobs/jobs.module.ts (1)

34-34: LGTM! Escrow entity properly registered.

The Escrow entity is correctly added to the TypeORM module configuration.

src/jobs/recommendation.service.ts (1)

6-6: LGTM! DataSource injection properly implemented.

The DataSource injection follows NestJS best practices and provides the service with direct database access capabilities for advanced operations.

Also applies to: 38-40

src/feed/feed.service.ts (1)

137-143: Good defensive programming practice.

The conditional check for job.freelancer existence before calling the notification service is a solid improvement that prevents potential null reference errors. Passing the entire freelancer object instead of just the ID also provides more flexibility for the notification service.

src/backup/backup.service.ts (1)

7-7: Proper dependency injection implementation.

The addition of @InjectDataSource() decorator follows NestJS best practices for injecting TypeORM DataSource. This enables direct database access for advanced querying capabilities, which is already being utilized in the validateDatabaseExists method.

Also applies to: 50-51

src/app.module.ts (1)

7-8: New entities properly integrated.

The addition of new entities (EmailToken, PasswordReset, Like, SavedJob, Recommendation, SkillVerification) is well-structured and aligns with the expanded domain model for the job listing and pagination system.

Also applies to: 26-26, 28-29, 31-31, 64-65, 71-71, 73-76

src/jobs/entities/escrow.entity.ts (2)

27-29: Well-structured relationship with a note on eager loading.

The many-to-one relationship to Job is properly configured. The eager loading is acceptable if job details are frequently needed with escrow operations, but monitor query performance as the dataset grows.


46-53: Excellent lifecycle tracking implementation.

The timestamp fields provide comprehensive audit trail for escrow state transitions. The nullable nature is appropriate since escrows won't necessarily go through all states.

src/feed/entities/post.entity.ts (3)

6-12: Well-structured imports for new relationship features.

The import additions properly support the new social interaction relationships. The relative import paths and OneToMany decorator import are correctly configured.


25-26: Good performance optimization by removing eager loading.

Simplifying the User relationship by removing eager loading is a solid performance improvement. Ensure that components requiring user data with posts explicitly load the relationship when needed.


28-35: Excellent implementation of social interaction relationships.

The OneToMany relationships are properly configured with correct inverse mappings. The absence of eager loading is appropriate for these potentially large collections, allowing for explicit loading when needed.

src/jobs/entities/job.entity.ts (2)

311-316: Excellent improvement in type safety and data modeling.

Replacing the loosely typed freelancer: any with a proper TypeORM ManyToOne relationship to User significantly improves type safety and database integrity. The nullable configuration is appropriate for the job lifecycle.


356-363: Well-designed lifecycle tracking columns.

The new columns effectively support job lifecycle management and escrow integration. The nullable nature is appropriate since these represent specific events in a job's lifecycle that may not apply to all jobs.

src/jobs/dto/pagination.dto.ts (4)

1-29: Well-structured enums and imports!

The enums for sorting are comprehensive and cover all relevant job fields. Good use of lowercase convention for sort order values.


30-51: Robust pagination implementation!

Good defaults and constraints. The 100-item limit prevents excessive data retrieval while still allowing flexibility.


52-84: Comprehensive filtering options!

The filter properties cover all the requirements mentioned in the PR objectives. Good validation on salary fields to ensure non-negative values.


85-103: Smart boolean transformation!

The Transform decorator correctly handles both string and boolean inputs, which is essential for query parameters. The skills property as a string allows for flexible comma-separated input.

src/jobs/jobs.controller.ts (2)

33-34: Appropriate DTO imports!

The new imports support the enhanced functionality for pagination, escrow payments, and job extensions.

Also applies to: 51-51


90-139: Excellent API documentation and implementation!

The Swagger documentation is comprehensive and clearly indicates this is a public endpoint. The response schema accurately describes the paginated structure with all job fields.

src/jobs/jobs.service.ts (3)

106-115: Good security practice with status filtering!

Correctly restricts public access to only open/active jobs that are accepting applications.


1061-1064: Good defensive programming!

Excellent check to skip jobs without deadlines, preventing potential null reference errors.


166-170: PostgreSQL operator is supported—no changes needed

The project’s TypeORM setup (in src/app.module.ts and src/data-source.ts) is explicitly configured with type: 'postgres', so the && array operator is fully compatible. No further action required.

27-27: Good refactoring to centralize guard provision.

Moving JwtAuthGuard to the AuthModule providers centralizes its provision and reduces duplication across modules. This improves maintainability.

src/notifications/notifications.module.ts (1)

11-11: Clean integration of mail functionality.

Adding MailModule to the imports properly integrates mail services into the notifications system, enabling email-based notifications.

Also applies to: 18-18

1-5: Good addition of UnauthorizedException import.

Adding UnauthorizedException to the imports supports the enhanced error handling in the handleRequest method.


29-34: Enhanced error handling with descriptive messages.

The updated handleRequest method now throws a specific UnauthorizedException with a clear error message, improving the developer experience and API consistency.

src/auth/auth.module.ts (2)

56-65: Improved formatting for error messages.

The formatting improvements enhance code readability while maintaining the same functionality.

87-99: Well-implemented refresh token handling.

The refresh token implementation includes proper error handling and follows the expected token refresh flow with appropriate exception handling.

src/notifications/notifications.service.ts (1)

207-235: LGTM! Well-implemented notification state management methods.

Both markAsRead and markAsUnread methods follow consistent patterns with proper:

  • User ownership validation by checking both notificationId and userId
  • Error handling with appropriate NotFoundException
  • Timestamp updates to track modifications
src/auth/auth.service.ts (4)

72-101: Excellent refactoring of the login method with proper token management

The updated login method properly:

  • Generates both access and refresh tokens
  • Stores hashed refresh token in the database
  • Excludes password from the response
  • Maintains backward compatibility with the response structure

103-171: Secure token management implementation

The token management methods follow security best practices:

  • Short-lived access tokens (15m) and longer refresh tokens (7d)
  • Refresh tokens are hashed with bcrypt before storage
  • Proper validation in refreshTokens with constant-time comparison
  • Clear error messages using ForbiddenException

216-222: Simple utility methods for user lookups

Clean implementation of utility methods for retrieving users by email or ID.


173-214: Validate FRONTEND_URL at startup

I’ve confirmed FRONTEND_URL is referenced in:

  • src/main.ts (CORS origin)
  • src/jobs/jobs.service.ts (renewUrl)
  • src/auth/auth.service.ts (resetUrl)

Ensure your ConfigModule enforces FRONTEND_URL is a valid URL (for example, add a Joi .uri() or similar check in your validation schema) to prevent injection of malicious values.

src/mail/mail.service.ts (2)

18-55: Excellent error handling improvements for mail transporter initialization

The changes improve robustness by:

  • Allowing null transporter to prevent crashes when SMTP is misconfigured
  • Wrapping initialization in try-catch
  • Providing clear console messages about mailer status

57-80: Good defensive programming for mail sending

The method now gracefully handles missing transporter configuration and returns false instead of throwing exceptions, allowing the application to continue functioning even when mail service is unavailable.

Verify if RateLimitGuard should remain commented out.

The global RateLimitGuard provider is commented out, which removes rate limiting protection from the entire application. This could be a security concern if intentional for production.

Please confirm if this is intentional:


🏁 Script executed:

#!/bin/bash
# Description: Check if there are alternative rate limiting mechanisms in place
# Expected: Find other rate limiting configurations or guards

rg -i "rate.?limit|throttl" --type ts -A 3 -B 3

Length of output: 2478


Global RateLimitGuard is disabled—no rate limiting in effect
The ThrottlerModule is configured (100 requests per minute), but the global RateLimitGuard provider is commented out and not used elsewhere. This means no rate-limiting guard is bound, leaving the app unprotected.

• File src/app.module.ts (around lines 110–113):

   providers: [

Review circular dependency necessity.

The use of forwardRef indicates a circular dependency between JobCleanupTask and JobsService. While this resolves the immediate injection issue, circular dependencies can be a sign of architectural concerns.

Consider if this circular dependency is necessary:

  • Could the cleanup logic be moved into a separate service?
  • Could the task depend on a more focused interface rather than the entire JobsService?
  • Is the task actually being used given that it's commented out in the jobs module?

Let me verify the current status of this task in the jobs module:

Review circular dependency is inactive—task is commented out

The JobCleanupTask provider is currently commented out in src/jobs/jobs.module.ts, so its use of @Inject(forwardRef(() => JobsService)) isn’t affecting the DI container. Please decide on one of the following:

  • Uncomment and register the task only if you intend to enable it, then refactor to avoid the circular dependency (e.g., extract cleanup logic into a dedicated service or interface).
  • Remove the unused import and commented provider to clean up dead code.
