+# Database Connection Manager (dbmanager)
+
+A comprehensive database connection manager for Go that provides centralized management of multiple named database connections with support for PostgreSQL, SQLite, MSSQL, and MongoDB.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Multiple Named Connections**: Manage multiple database connections with names like `primary`, `analytics`, `cache-db`
+- **Multi-Database Support**: PostgreSQL, SQLite, Microsoft SQL Server, and MongoDB
+- **Multi-ORM Access**: Each SQL connection provides access through:
+  - **Bun ORM** - Modern, lightweight ORM
+  - **GORM** - Popular Go ORM
+  - **Native** - Standard library `*sql.DB`
+  - All three share the same underlying connection pool
+- **Configuration-Driven**: YAML configuration with Viper integration
+- **Production-Ready Features**:
+  - Automatic health checks and reconnection
+  - Prometheus metrics
+  - Connection pooling with configurable limits
+  - Retry logic with exponential backoff
+  - Graceful shutdown
+  - OpenTelemetry tracing support
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+go get github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/dbmanager
+```
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### 1. Configuration
+
+Create a configuration file (e.g., `config.yaml`):
+
+```yaml
+dbmanager:
+  default_connection: "primary"
+
+  # Global connection pool defaults
+  max_open_conns: 25
+  max_idle_conns: 5
+  conn_max_lifetime: 30m
+  conn_max_idle_time: 5m
+
+  # Retry configuration
+  retry_attempts: 3
+  retry_delay: 1s
+  retry_max_delay: 10s
+
+  # Health checks
+  health_check_interval: 30s
+  enable_auto_reconnect: true
+
+  connections:
+    # Primary PostgreSQL connection
+    primary:
+      type: postgres
+      host: localhost
+      port: 5432
+      user: myuser
+      password: mypassword
+      database: myapp
+      sslmode: disable
+      default_orm: bun
+      enable_metrics: true
+      enable_tracing: true
+      enable_logging: true
+
+    # Read replica for analytics
+    analytics:
+      type: postgres
+      dsn: "postgres://readonly:pass@analytics:5432/analytics"
+      default_orm: bun
+      enable_metrics: true
+
+    # SQLite cache
+    cache-db:
+      type: sqlite
+      filepath: /var/lib/app/cache.db
+      max_open_conns: 1
+
+    # MongoDB for documents
+    documents:
+      type: mongodb
+      host: localhost
+      port: 27017
+      database: documents
+      user: mongouser
+      password: mongopass
+      auth_source: admin
+      enable_metrics: true
+```
+
+### 2. Initialize Manager
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+    "context"
+    "log"
+
+    "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/config"
+    "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/dbmanager"
+)
+
+func main() {
+    // Load configuration
+    cfgMgr := config.NewManager()
+    if err := cfgMgr.Load(); err != nil {
+        log.Fatal(err)
+    }
+    cfg, _ := cfgMgr.GetConfig()
+
+    // Create database manager
+    mgr, err := dbmanager.NewManager(cfg.DBManager)
+    if err != nil {
+        log.Fatal(err)
+    }
+    defer mgr.Close()
+
+    // Connect all databases
+    ctx := context.Background()
+    if err := mgr.Connect(ctx); err != nil {
+        log.Fatal(err)
+    }
+
+    // Your application code here...
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Use Database Connections
+
+#### Get Default Database
+
+```go
+// Get the default database (as configured common.Database interface)
+db, err := mgr.GetDefaultDatabase()
+if err != nil {
+    log.Fatal(err)
+}
+
+// Use it with any query
+var users []User
+err = db.NewSelect().
+    Model(&users).
+    Where("active = ?", true).
+    Scan(ctx, &users)
+```
+
+#### Get Named Connection with Specific ORM
+
+```go
+// Get primary connection
+primary, err := mgr.Get("primary")
+if err != nil {
+    log.Fatal(err)
+}
+
+// Use with Bun
+bunDB, err := primary.Bun()
+if err != nil {
+    log.Fatal(err)
+}
+err = bunDB.NewSelect().Model(&users).Scan(ctx)
+
+// Use with GORM (same underlying connection!)
+gormDB, err := primary.GORM()
+if err != nil {
+    log.Fatal(err)
+}
+gormDB.Where("active = ?", true).Find(&users)
+
+// Use native *sql.DB
+nativeDB, err := primary.Native()
+if err != nil {
+    log.Fatal(err)
+}
+rows, err := nativeDB.QueryContext(ctx, "SELECT * FROM users WHERE active = $1", true)
+```
+
+#### Use MongoDB
+
+```go
+// Get MongoDB connection
+docs, err := mgr.Get("documents")
+if err != nil {
+    log.Fatal(err)
+}
+
+mongoClient, err := docs.MongoDB()
+if err != nil {
+    log.Fatal(err)
+}
+
+collection := mongoClient.Database("documents").Collection("articles")
+// Use MongoDB driver...
+```
+
+#### Change Default Database
+
+```go
+// Switch to analytics database as default
+err := mgr.SetDefaultDatabase("analytics")
+if err != nil {
+    log.Fatal(err)
+}
+
+// Now GetDefaultDatabase() returns the analytics connection
+db, _ := mgr.GetDefaultDatabase()
+```

+
+### Prometheus Metrics
+
+The package automatically exports Prometheus metrics:
+
+- `dbmanager_connections_total` - Total configured connections by type
+- `dbmanager_connection_status` - Connection health status (1=healthy, 0=unhealthy)
+- `dbmanager_connection_pool_size` - Connection pool statistics by state
+- `dbmanager_connection_wait_count` - Times connections waited for availability
+- `dbmanager_connection_wait_duration_seconds` - Total wait duration
+- `dbmanager_health_check_duration_seconds` - Health check execution time
+- `dbmanager_reconnect_attempts_total` - Reconnection attempts and results
+- `dbmanager_connection_lifetime_closed_total` - Connections closed due to max lifetime
+- `dbmanager_connection_idle_closed_total` - Connections closed due to max idle time
+
+Metrics are automatically updated during health checks. To manually publish metrics:
+
+```go
+if mgr, ok := mgr.(*connectionManager); ok {
+    mgr.PublishMetrics()
+}
+```
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Single Connection Pool, Multiple ORMs
+
+A key design principle is that Bun, GORM, and Native all wrap the **same underlying `*sql.DB`** connection pool:
+
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────────────┐
+│        SQL Connection               │
+├─────────────────────────────────────┤
+│  ┌─────────┐  ┌──────┐  ┌────────┐ │
+│  │   Bun   │  │ GORM │  │ Native │ │
+│  └────┬────┘  └───┬──┘  └───┬────┘ │
+│       │           │         │      │
+│       └───────────┴─────────┘      │
+│              *sql.DB                │
+│         (single pool)               │
+└─────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- No connection duplication
+- Consistent pool limits across all ORMs
+- Unified connection statistics
+- Lower resource usage
+
+### Provider Pattern
+
+Each database type has a dedicated provider:
+
+- **PostgresProvider** - Uses `pgx` driver
+- **SQLiteProvider** - Uses `glebarez/sqlite` (pure Go)
+- **MSSQLProvider** - Uses `go-mssqldb`
+- **MongoProvider** - Uses official `mongo-driver`
+
+Providers handle:
+- Connection establishment with retry logic
+- Health checking
+- Connection statistics
+- Connection cleanup
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Use Named Connections**: Be explicit about which database you're accessing
+   ```go
+   primary, _ := mgr.Get("primary")    // Good
+   db, _ := mgr.GetDefaultDatabase()   // Risky if default changes
+   ```
+
+2. **Configure Connection Pools**: Tune based on your workload
+   ```yaml
+   connections:
+     primary:
+       max_open_conns: 100  # High traffic API
+       max_idle_conns: 25
+     analytics:
+       max_open_conns: 10   # Background analytics
+       max_idle_conns: 2
+   ```
+
+3. **Enable Health Checks**: Catch connection issues early
+   ```yaml
+   health_check_interval: 30s
+   enable_auto_reconnect: true
+   ```
+
+4. **Use Appropriate ORM**: Choose based on your needs
+   - **Bun**: Modern, fast, type-safe - recommended for new code
+   - **GORM**: Mature, feature-rich - good for existing GORM code
+   - **Native**: Maximum control - use for performance-critical queries
+
+5. **Monitor Metrics**: Watch connection pool utilization
+   - If `wait_count` is high, increase `max_open_conns`
+   - If `idle` is always high, decrease `max_idle_conns`
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Connection Failures
+
+If connections fail to establish:
+
+1. Check configuration:
+   ```bash
+   # Test connection manually
+   psql -h localhost -U myuser -d myapp
+   ```
+
+2. Enable logging:
+   ```yaml
+   connections:
+     primary:
+       enable_logging: true
+   ```
+
+3. Check retry attempts:
+   ```yaml
+   retry_attempts: 5  # Increase retries
+   retry_max_delay: 30s
+   ```
+
+### Pool Exhaustion
+
+If you see "too many connections" errors:
+
+1. Increase pool size:
+   ```yaml
+   max_open_conns: 50  # Increase from default 25
+   ```
+
+2. Reduce connection lifetime:
+   ```yaml
+   conn_max_lifetime: 15m  # Recycle faster
+   ```
+
+3. Monitor wait stats:
+   ```go
+   stats := primary.Stats()
+   if stats.WaitCount > 1000 {
+       log.Warn("High connection wait count")
+   }
+   ```
+
+### MongoDB vs SQL Confusion
+
+MongoDB connections don't support SQL ORMs:
+
+```go
+docs, _ := mgr.Get("documents")
+
+// ✓ Correct
+mongoClient, _ := docs.MongoDB()
+
+// ✗ Error: ErrNotSQLDatabase
+bunDB, err := docs.Bun()  // Won't work!
+```
+
+SQL connections don't support MongoDB:
+
+```go
+primary, _ := mgr.Get("primary")
+
+// ✓ Correct
+bunDB, _ := primary.Bun()
+
+// ✗ Error: ErrNotMongoDB
+mongoClient, err := primary.MongoDB()  // Won't work!
+```
+
+## Migration Guide
+
+### From Raw `database/sql`
+
+Before:
+```go
+db, err := sql.Open("postgres", dsn)
+defer db.Close()
+
+rows, err := db.Query("SELECT * FROM users")
+```
+
+After:
+```go
+mgr, _ := dbmanager.NewManager(cfg.DBManager)
+mgr.Connect(ctx)
+defer mgr.Close()
+
+primary, _ := mgr.Get("primary")
+nativeDB, _ := primary.Native()
+
+rows, err := nativeDB.Query("SELECT * FROM users")
+```
+
+### From Direct Bun/GORM
+
+Before:
+```go
+sqldb, _ := sql.Open("pgx", dsn)
+bunDB := bun.NewDB(sqldb, pgdialect.New())
+
+var users []User
+bunDB.NewSelect().Model(&users).Scan(ctx)
+```
+
+After:
+```go
+mgr, _ := dbmanager.NewManager(cfg.DBManager)
+mgr.Connect(ctx)
+
+primary, _ := mgr.Get("primary")
+bunDB, _ := primary.Bun()
+
+var users []User
+bunDB.NewSelect().Model(&users).Scan(ctx)
+```

+# PostgreSQL NOTIFY/LISTEN Support
+
+The `dbmanager` package provides built-in support for PostgreSQL's NOTIFY/LISTEN functionality through the `PostgresListener` type.
+
+## Overview
+
+PostgreSQL NOTIFY/LISTEN is a simple pub/sub mechanism that allows database clients to:
+- **LISTEN** on named channels to receive notifications
+- **NOTIFY** channels to send messages to all listeners
+- Receive asynchronous notifications without polling
+
+## Features
+
+- ✅ Subscribe to multiple channels simultaneously
+- ✅ Callback-based notification handling
+- ✅ Automatic reconnection on connection loss
+- ✅ Automatic resubscription after reconnection
+- ✅ Thread-safe operations
+- ✅ Panic recovery in notification handlers
+- ✅ Dedicated connection for listening (doesn't interfere with queries)
+
+## Usage
+
+### Basic Usage
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+    "context"
+    "fmt"
+    "time"
+
+    "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/dbmanager/providers"
+)
+
+func main() {
+    // Create PostgreSQL provider
+    cfg := &providers.Config{
+        Name:     "primary",
+        Type:     "postgres",
+        Host:     "localhost",
+        Port:     5432,
+        User:     "postgres",
+        Password: "password",
+        Database: "myapp",
+    }
+
+    provider := providers.NewPostgresProvider()
+    ctx := context.Background()
+
+    if err := provider.Connect(ctx, cfg); err != nil {
+        panic(err)
+    }
+    defer provider.Close()
+
+    // Get listener
+    listener, err := provider.GetListener(ctx)
+    if err != nil {
+        panic(err)
+    }
+
+    // Subscribe to a channel
+    err = listener.Listen("events", func(channel, payload string) {
+        fmt.Printf("Received on %s: %s\n", channel, payload)
+    })
+    if err != nil {
+        panic(err)
+    }
+
+    // Send a notification
+    err = listener.Notify(ctx, "events", "Hello, World!")
+    if err != nil {
+        panic(err)
+    }
+
+    // Keep the program running
+    time.Sleep(1 * time.Second)
+}
+```
+
+### Multiple Channels
+
+```go
+listener, _ := provider.GetListener(ctx)
+
+// Listen to different channels with different handlers
+listener.Listen("user_events", func(channel, payload string) {
+    fmt.Printf("User event: %s\n", payload)
+})
+
+listener.Listen("order_events", func(channel, payload string) {
+    fmt.Printf("Order event: %s\n", payload)
+})
+
+listener.Listen("payment_events", func(channel, payload string) {
+    fmt.Printf("Payment event: %s\n", payload)
+})
+```
+
+### Unsubscribing
+
+```go
+// Stop listening to a specific channel
+err := listener.Unlisten("user_events")
+if err != nil {
+    fmt.Printf("Failed to unlisten: %v\n", err)
+}
+```
+
+### Checking Active Channels
+
+```go
+// Get list of channels currently being listened to
+channels := listener.Channels()
+fmt.Printf("Listening to: %v\n", channels)
+```
+
+### Checking Connection Status
+
+```go
+if listener.IsConnected() {
+    fmt.Println("Listener is connected")
+} else {
+    fmt.Println("Listener is disconnected")
+}
+```
+
+## Integration with DBManager
+
+When using the DBManager, you can access the listener through the PostgreSQL provider:
+
+```go
+// Initialize DBManager
+mgr, err := dbmanager.NewManager(dbmanager.FromConfig(cfg.DBManager))
+mgr.Connect(ctx)
+defer mgr.Close()
+
+// Get PostgreSQL connection
+conn, err := mgr.Get("primary")
+
+// Note: You'll need to cast to the underlying provider type
+// This requires exposing the provider through the Connection interface
+// or providing a helper method
+```
+
+## Use Cases
+
+### Cache Invalidation
+
+```go
+listener.Listen("cache_invalidation", func(channel, payload string) {
+    // Parse the payload to determine what to invalidate
+    cache.Invalidate(payload)
+})
+```
+
+### Real-time Updates
+
+```go
+listener.Listen("data_updates", func(channel, payload string) {
+    // Broadcast update to WebSocket clients
+    websocketBroadcast(payload)
+})
+```
+
+### Configuration Reload
+
+```go
+listener.Listen("config_reload", func(channel, payload string) {
+    // Reload application configuration
+    config.Reload()
+})
+```
+
+### Distributed Locking
+
+```go
+listener.Listen("lock_released", func(channel, payload string) {
+    // Attempt to acquire the lock
+    tryAcquireLock(payload)
+})
+```
+
+## Automatic Reconnection
+
+The listener automatically handles connection failures:
+
+1. When a connection error is detected, the listener initiates reconnection
+2. Once reconnected, it automatically resubscribes to all previous channels
+3. Notification handlers remain active throughout the reconnection process
+
+No manual intervention is required for reconnection.
+
+## Error Handling
+
+### Handler Panics
+
+If a notification handler panics, the panic is recovered and logged. The listener continues to function normally:
+
+```go
+listener.Listen("events", func(channel, payload string) {
+    defer func() {
+        if r := recover(); r != nil {
+            log.Printf("Handler panic: %v", r)
+        }
+    }()
+
+    // Your event processing logic
+    processEvent(payload)
+})
+```
+
+### Connection Errors
+
+Connection errors trigger automatic reconnection. Check logs for reconnection events when `EnableLogging` is true.
+
+## Thread Safety
+
+All `PostgresListener` methods are thread-safe and can be called concurrently from multiple goroutines.
+
+## Performance Considerations
+
+1. **Dedicated Connection**: The listener uses a dedicated PostgreSQL connection separate from the query connection pool
+2. **Asynchronous Handlers**: Notification handlers run in separate goroutines to avoid blocking
+3. **Lightweight**: NOTIFY/LISTEN has minimal overhead compared to polling
+
+## Comparison with Polling
+
+| Feature | NOTIFY/LISTEN | Polling |
+|---------|---------------|---------|
+| Latency | Low (near real-time) | High (depends on poll interval) |
+| Database Load | Minimal | High (constant queries) |
+| Scalability | Excellent | Poor |
+| Complexity | Simple | Moderate |
+
+## Limitations
+
+1. **PostgreSQL Only**: This feature is specific to PostgreSQL and not available for other databases
+2. **No Message Persistence**: Notifications are not stored; if no listener is connected, the message is lost
+3. **Payload Limit**: Notification payload is limited to 8000 bytes in PostgreSQL
+4. **No Guaranteed Delivery**: If a listener disconnects, in-flight notifications may be lost
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Keep Handlers Fast**: Notification handlers should be quick; for heavy processing, send work to a queue
+2. **Use JSON Payloads**: Encode structured data as JSON for easy parsing
+3. **Handle Errors Gracefully**: Always recover from panics in handlers
+4. **Close Properly**: Always close the provider to ensure the listener is properly shut down
+5. **Monitor Connection Status**: Use `IsConnected()` for health checks
+
+## Example: Real-World Application
+
+```go
+// Subscribe to various application events
+listener, _ := provider.GetListener(ctx)
+
+// User registration events
+listener.Listen("user_registered", func(channel, payload string) {
+    var event UserRegisteredEvent
+    json.Unmarshal([]byte(payload), &event)
+
+    // Send welcome email
+    sendWelcomeEmail(event.UserID)
+
+    // Invalidate user count cache
+    cache.Delete("user_count")
+})
+
+// Order placement events
+listener.Listen("order_placed", func(channel, payload string) {
+    var event OrderPlacedEvent
+    json.Unmarshal([]byte(payload), &event)
+
+    // Notify warehouse system
+    warehouse.ProcessOrder(event.OrderID)
+
+    // Update inventory cache
+    cache.Invalidate("inventory:" + event.ProductID)
+})
+
+// Configuration changes
+listener.Listen("config_updated", func(channel, payload string) {
+    // Reload configuration from database
+    appConfig.Reload()
+})
+```
+
+## Triggering Notifications from SQL
+
+You can trigger notifications directly from PostgreSQL triggers or functions:
+
+```sql
+-- Example trigger to notify on new user
+CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION notify_user_registered()
+RETURNS TRIGGER AS $$
+BEGIN
+    PERFORM pg_notify('user_registered',
+        json_build_object(
+            'user_id', NEW.id,
+            'email', NEW.email,
+            'timestamp', NOW()
+        )::text
+    );
+    RETURN NEW;
+END;
+$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;
+
+CREATE TRIGGER user_registered_trigger
+AFTER INSERT ON users
+FOR EACH ROW
+EXECUTE FUNCTION notify_user_registered();
+```

+# Event Broker System Implementation Plan
+
+## Overview
+Implement a comprehensive event handler/broker system for ResolveSpec that follows existing architectural patterns (Provider interface, Hook system, Config management, Graceful shutdown).
+
+## Requirements Met
+- ✅ Events with sources (database, websocket, frontend, system)
+- ✅ Event statuses (pending, processing, completed, failed)
+- ✅ Timestamps, JSON payloads, user IDs, session IDs
+- ✅ Program instance IDs for tracking server instances
+- ✅ Both sync and async processing modes
+- ✅ Multiple provider backends (in-memory, Redis, NATS, database)
+- ✅ Cross-instance pub/sub support
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Core Components
+
+**Event Structure** (with full metadata):
+```go
+type Event struct {
+    ID          string                 // UUID
+    Source      EventSource            // database, websocket, system, frontend
+    Type        string                 // Pattern: schema.entity.operation
+    Status      EventStatus            // pending, processing, completed, failed
+    Payload     json.RawMessage        // JSON payload
+    UserID      int
+    SessionID   string
+    InstanceID  string                 // Server instance identifier
+    Schema      string
+    Entity      string
+    Operation   string                 // create, update, delete, read
+    CreatedAt   time.Time
+    ProcessedAt *time.Time
+    CompletedAt *time.Time
+    Error       string
+    Metadata    map[string]interface{}
+    RetryCount  int
+}
+```
+
+**Provider Pattern** (like cache.Provider):
+```go
+type Provider interface {
+    Store(ctx context.Context, event *Event) error
+    Get(ctx context.Context, id string) (*Event, error)
+    List(ctx context.Context, filter *EventFilter) ([]*Event, error)
+    UpdateStatus(ctx context.Context, id string, status EventStatus, error string) error
+    Stream(ctx context.Context, pattern string) (<-chan *Event, error)
+    Publish(ctx context.Context, event *Event) error
+    Close() error
+    Stats(ctx context.Context) (*ProviderStats, error)
+}
+```
+
+**Broker Interface**:
+```go
+type Broker interface {
+    Publish(ctx context.Context, event *Event) error        // Mode-dependent
+    PublishSync(ctx context.Context, event *Event) error    // Blocks
+    PublishAsync(ctx context.Context, event *Event) error   // Non-blocking
+    Subscribe(pattern string, handler EventHandler) (SubscriptionID, error)
+    Unsubscribe(id SubscriptionID) error
+    Start(ctx context.Context) error
+    Stop(ctx context.Context) error
+    Stats(ctx context.Context) (*BrokerStats, error)
+}
+```
+
+## Implementation Steps
+
+### Phase 1: Core Foundation (Files: 1-5)
+
+**1. Create `pkg/eventbroker/event.go`**
+- Event struct with all required fields (status, timestamps, user, instance ID, etc.)
+- EventSource enum (database, websocket, frontend, system, internal)
+- EventStatus enum (pending, processing, completed, failed)
+- Helper: `EventType(schema, entity, operation string) string`
+- Helper: `NewEvent()` constructor with UUID generation
+
+**2. Create `pkg/eventbroker/provider.go`**
+- Provider interface definition
+- EventFilter struct for queries
+- ProviderStats struct
+
+**3. Create `pkg/eventbroker/handler.go`**
+- EventHandler interface
+- EventHandlerFunc adapter type
+
+**4. Create `pkg/eventbroker/broker.go`**
+- Broker interface definition
+- EventBroker struct implementation
+- ProcessingMode enum (sync, async)
+- Options struct with functional options (WithProvider, WithMode, WithWorkerCount, etc.)
+- NewBroker() constructor
+- Sync processing implementation
+
+**5. Create `pkg/eventbroker/subscription.go`**
+- Pattern matching using glob syntax (e.g., "public.users.*", "*.*.create")
+- subscriptionManager struct
+- SubscriptionID type
+- Subscribe/Unsubscribe logic
+
+### Phase 2: Configuration & Integration (Files: 6-8)
+
+**6. Create `pkg/eventbroker/config.go`**
+- EventBrokerConfig struct
+- RedisConfig, NATSConfig, DatabaseConfig structs
+- RetryPolicyConfig struct
+
+**7. Update `pkg/config/config.go`**
+- Add `EventBroker EventBrokerConfig` field to Config struct
+
+**8. Update `pkg/config/manager.go`**
+- Add event broker defaults to `setDefaults()`:
+  ```go
+  v.SetDefault("event_broker.enabled", false)
+  v.SetDefault("event_broker.provider", "memory")
+  v.SetDefault("event_broker.mode", "async")
+  v.SetDefault("event_broker.worker_count", 10)
+  v.SetDefault("event_broker.buffer_size", 1000)
+  ```
+
+### Phase 3: Memory Provider (Files: 9)
+
+**9. Create `pkg/eventbroker/provider_memory.go`**
+- MemoryProvider struct with mutex-protected map
+- In-memory event storage
+- Pattern matching for subscriptions
+- Channel-based streaming for real-time events
+- LRU eviction when max size reached
+- Cleanup goroutine for old completed events
+- **Note**: Single-instance only (no cross-instance pub/sub)
+
+### Phase 4: Async Processing (Update File: 4)
+
+**10. Update `pkg/eventbroker/broker.go`** (add async support)
+- workerPool struct with configurable worker count
+- Buffered channel for event queue
+- Worker goroutines that process events
+- PublishAsync() queues to channel
+- Graceful shutdown: stop accepting events, drain queue, wait for workers
+- Retry logic with exponential backoff
+
+### Phase 5: Hook Integration (Files: 11)
+
+**11. Create `pkg/eventbroker/hooks.go`**
+- `RegisterCRUDHooks(broker Broker, hookRegistry *restheadspec.HookRegistry)`
+- Registers AfterCreate, AfterUpdate, AfterDelete, AfterRead hooks
+- Extracts UserContext from hook context
+- Creates Event with proper metadata
+- Calls `broker.PublishAsync()` to not block CRUD operations
+
+### Phase 6: Global Singleton & Factory (Files: 12-13)
+
+**12. Create `pkg/eventbroker/eventbroker.go`**
+- Global `defaultBroker` variable
+- `Initialize(config *config.Config) error` - creates broker from config
+- `SetDefaultBroker(broker Broker)`
+- `GetDefaultBroker() Broker`
+- Helper functions: `Publish()`, `PublishAsync()`, `PublishSync()`, `Subscribe()`
+- `RegisterShutdown(broker Broker)` - registers with server.RegisterShutdownCallback()
+
+**13. Create `pkg/eventbroker/factory.go`**
+- `NewProviderFromConfig(config EventBrokerConfig) (Provider, error)`
+- Provider selection logic (memory, redis, nats, database)
+- Returns appropriate provider based on config
+
+### Phase 7: Redis Provider (Files: 14)
+
+**14. Create `pkg/eventbroker/provider_redis.go`**
+- RedisProvider using Redis Streams (XADD, XREAD, XGROUP)
+- Consumer group for distributed processing
+- Cross-instance pub/sub support
+- Stream(pattern) subscribes to consumer group
+- Publish() uses XADD to append to stream
+- Graceful shutdown: acknowledge pending messages
+
+**Dependencies**: `github.com/redis/go-redis/v9`
+
+### Phase 8: NATS Provider (Files: 15)
+
+**15. Create `pkg/eventbroker/provider_nats.go`**
+- NATSProvider using NATS JetStream
+- Subject-based routing: `events.{source}.{type}`
+- Wildcard subscriptions support
+- Durable consumers for replay
+- At-least-once delivery semantics
+
+**Dependencies**: `github.com/nats-io/nats.go`
+
+### Phase 9: Database Provider (Files: 16)
+
+**16. Create `pkg/eventbroker/provider_database.go`**
+- DatabaseProvider using `common.Database` interface
+- Table schema creation (events table with indexes)
+- Polling-based event consumption (configurable interval)
+- Full SQL query support via List(filter)
+- Transaction support for atomic operations
+- Good for audit trails and debugging
+
+### Phase 10: Metrics Integration (Files: 17)
+
+**17. Create `pkg/eventbroker/metrics.go`**
+- Integrate with existing `metrics.Provider`
+- Record metrics:
+  - `eventbroker_events_published_total{source, type}`
+  - `eventbroker_events_processed_total{source, type, status}`
+  - `eventbroker_event_processing_duration_seconds{source, type}`
+  - `eventbroker_queue_size`
+  - `eventbroker_workers_active`
+
+**18. Update `pkg/metrics/interfaces.go`**
+- Add methods to Provider interface:
+  ```go
+  RecordEventPublished(source, eventType string)
+  RecordEventProcessed(source, eventType, status string, duration time.Duration)
+  UpdateEventQueueSize(size int64)
+  ```
+
+### Phase 11: Testing & Examples (Files: 19-20)
+
+**19. Create `pkg/eventbroker/eventbroker_test.go`**
+- Unit tests for Event marshaling
+- Pattern matching tests
+- MemoryProvider tests
+- Sync vs async mode tests
+- Concurrent publish/subscribe tests
+- Graceful shutdown tests
+
+**20. Create `pkg/eventbroker/example_usage.go`**
+- Basic publish example
+- Subscribe with patterns example
+- Hook integration example
+- Multiple handlers example
+- Error handling example
+
+## Integration Points
+
+### Hook System Integration
+```go
+// In application initialization (e.g., main.go)
+eventbroker.RegisterCRUDHooks(broker, handler.Hooks())
+```
+
+This automatically publishes events for all CRUD operations:
+- `schema.entity.create` after inserts
+- `schema.entity.update` after updates
+- `schema.entity.delete` after deletes
+- `schema.entity.read` after reads
+
+### Shutdown Integration
+```go
+// In application initialization
+eventbroker.RegisterShutdown(broker)
+```
+
+Ensures event broker flushes pending events before shutdown.
+
+### Configuration Example
+```yaml
+event_broker:
+  enabled: true
+  provider: redis  # memory, redis, nats, database
+  mode: async      # sync, async
+  worker_count: 10
+  buffer_size: 1000
+  instance_id: "${HOSTNAME}"
+
+  redis:
+    stream_name: "resolvespec:events"
+    consumer_group: "resolvespec-workers"
+    host: "localhost"
+    port: 6379
+```
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### Publishing Custom Events
+```go
+// WebSocket event
+event := &eventbroker.Event{
+    Source:    eventbroker.EventSourceWebSocket,
+    Type:      "chat.message",
+    Payload:   json.RawMessage(`{"room": "lobby", "msg": "Hello"}`),
+    UserID:    userID,
+    SessionID: sessionID,
+}
+eventbroker.PublishAsync(ctx, event)
+```
+
+### Subscribing to Events
+```go
+// Subscribe to all user creation events
+eventbroker.Subscribe("public.users.create", eventbroker.EventHandlerFunc(
+    func(ctx context.Context, event *eventbroker.Event) error {
+        log.Printf("New user created: %s", event.Payload)
+        // Send welcome email, update cache, etc.
+        return nil
+    },
+))
+
+// Subscribe to all events from database
+eventbroker.Subscribe("*", eventbroker.EventHandlerFunc(
+    func(ctx context.Context, event *eventbroker.Event) error {
+        if event.Source == eventbroker.EventSourceDatabase {
+            // Audit logging
+        }
+        return nil
+    },
+))
+```
+

+## Provider Feature Matrix
+
+| Feature | Memory | Redis | NATS | Database |
+|---------|--------|-------|------|----------|
+| Persistence | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
+| Cross-instance | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
+| Real-time | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ⚠️ (polling) |
+| Query history | Limited | Limited | ✅ (replay) | ✅ (SQL) |
+| External deps | None | Redis | NATS | None |
+| Complexity | Low | Medium | Medium | Low |
+
+## Implementation Order Priority
+
+1. **Core + Memory Provider** (Phase 1-3) - Functional in-process event system
+2. **Async + Hooks** (Phase 4-5) - Non-blocking event dispatch integrated with CRUD
+3. **Config + Singleton** (Phase 6) - Easy initialization and usage
+4. **Redis Provider** (Phase 7) - Production-ready distributed events
+5. **Metrics** (Phase 10) - Observability
+6. **NATS/Database** (Phase 8-9) - Alternative backends
+7. **Tests + Examples** (Phase 11) - Documentation and reliability
+
+## Next Steps
+
+After approval, implement in order of phases. Each phase builds on previous phases and can be tested independently.

+
+// Create custom configuration
+config := &metrics.Config{

+| Field | Type | Default | Description |
+|-------|------|---------|-------------|
+| `Enabled` | `bool` | `true` | Enable/disable metrics collection |
+| `Provider` | `string` | `"prometheus"` | Metrics provider type |

+## Pushgateway Usage
+
+### Automatic Push (Batch Jobs)
+
+For jobs that run periodically, use automatic pushing:
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+    "time"
+
+    "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/metrics"
+)
+
+func main() {
+    // Configure with automatic pushing every 30 seconds
+    config := &metrics.Config{
+        Enabled:             true,
+        Provider:            "prometheus",
+        Namespace:           "batch_job",
+        PushgatewayURL:      "http://pushgateway:9091",
+        PushgatewayJobName:  "data-processor",
+        PushgatewayInterval: 30, // Push every 30 seconds
+    }
+
+    provider := metrics.NewPrometheusProvider(config)
+    metrics.SetProvider(provider)
+
+    // Ensure cleanup on exit
+    defer provider.StopAutoPush()
+
+    // Your batch job logic here
+    processBatchData()
+}
+```
+
+### Manual Push (Short-lived Processes)
+
+For one-time jobs or when you want manual control:
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+    "log"
+
+    "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/metrics"
+)
+
+func main() {
+    // Configure without automatic pushing
+    config := &metrics.Config{
+        Enabled:            true,
+        Provider:           "prometheus",
+        PushgatewayURL:     "http://pushgateway:9091",
+        PushgatewayJobName: "migration-job",
+        // PushgatewayInterval: 0 (default - no auto-push)
+    }
+
+    provider := metrics.NewPrometheusProvider(config)
+    metrics.SetProvider(provider)
+
+    // Run your job
+    err := runMigration()
+
+    // Push metrics at the end
+    if pushErr := provider.Push(); pushErr != nil {

+# MQTTSpec - MQTT-based Database Query Framework
+
+MQTTSpec is an MQTT-based database query framework that enables real-time database operations and subscriptions via MQTT protocol. It mirrors the functionality of WebSocketSpec but uses MQTT as the transport layer, making it ideal for IoT applications, mobile apps with unreliable networks, and distributed systems requiring QoS guarantees.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Dual Broker Support**: Embedded broker (Mochi MQTT) or external broker connection (Paho MQTT)
+- **QoS 1 (At-least-once delivery)**: Reliable message delivery for all operations
+- **Full CRUD Operations**: Create, Read, Update, Delete with hooks
+- **Real-time Subscriptions**: Subscribe to entity changes with filtering
+- **Database Agnostic**: GORM and Bun ORM support
+- **Lifecycle Hooks**: 12 hooks for authentication, authorization, validation, and auditing
+- **Multi-tenancy Support**: Built-in tenant isolation via hooks
+- **Thread-safe**: Proper concurrency handling throughout
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+go get github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/mqttspec
+```
+
+## Quick Start
+

+}
+```
+
+### External Broker
+
+```go
+handler, err := mqttspec.NewHandlerWithGORM(db,
+    mqttspec.WithExternalBroker(mqttspec.ExternalBrokerConfig{
+        BrokerURL:      "tcp://mqtt.example.com:1883",
+        ClientID:       "mqttspec-server",
+        Username:       "admin",
+        Password:       "secret",
+        ConnectTimeout: 10 * time.Second,
+    }),
+)
+```
+
+### Custom Port (Embedded Broker)
+
+```go
+handler, err := mqttspec.NewHandlerWithGORM(db,
+    mqttspec.WithEmbeddedBroker(mqttspec.BrokerConfig{
+        Host: "0.0.0.0",
+        Port: 1884,
+    }),
+)
+```
+
+## Topic Structure
+
+MQTTSpec uses a client-based topic hierarchy:
+
+```
+spec/{client_id}/request         # Client publishes requests
+spec/{client_id}/response        # Server publishes responses
+spec/{client_id}/notify/{sub_id} # Server publishes notifications
+```
+
+### Wildcard Subscriptions
+
+- **Server**: `spec/+/request` (receives all client requests)
+- **Client**: `spec/{client_id}/response` + `spec/{client_id}/notify/+`
+
+## Message Protocol
+
+MQTTSpec uses the same JSON message structure as WebSocketSpec and ResolveSpec for consistency.
+
+### Request Message
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "msg-123",
+  "type": "request",
+  "operation": "read",
+  "schema": "public",
+  "entity": "users",
+  "options": {
+    "filters": [
+      {"column": "status", "operator": "eq", "value": "active"}
+    ],
+    "sort": [{"column": "created_at", "direction": "desc"}],
+    "limit": 10
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Response Message
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "msg-123",
+  "type": "response",
+  "success": true,
+  "data": [
+    {"id": 1, "name": "John Doe", "email": "john@example.com", "status": "active"},
+    {"id": 2, "name": "Jane Smith", "email": "jane@example.com", "status": "active"}
+  ],
+  "metadata": {
+    "total": 50,
+    "count": 2
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Notification Message
+
+```json

+  "subscription_id": "sub-xyz",
+  "schema": "public",
+  "entity": "users",
+  "data": {
+    "id": 3,
+    "name": "New User",
+    "email": "new@example.com",
+    "status": "active"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## CRUD Operations
+
+### Read (Single Record)
+
+**MQTT Client Publishes to**: `spec/{client_id}/request`
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "msg-1",
+  "type": "request",
+  "operation": "read",
+  "schema": "public",
+  "entity": "users",
+  "data": {"id": 1}
+}
+```
+
+**Server Publishes Response to**: `spec/{client_id}/response`
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "msg-1",
+  "success": true,
+  "data": {"id": 1, "name": "John Doe", "email": "john@example.com"}
+}
+```
+
+### Read (Multiple Records with Filtering)
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "msg-2",
+  "type": "request",
+  "operation": "read",
+  "schema": "public",
+  "entity": "users",
+  "options": {
+    "filters": [
+      {"column": "status", "operator": "eq", "value": "active"}
+    ],
+    "sort": [{"column": "name", "direction": "asc"}],
+    "limit": 20,
+    "offset": 0
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Create
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "msg-3",
+  "type": "request",
+  "operation": "create",
+  "schema": "public",
+  "entity": "users",
+  "data": {
+    "name": "Alice Brown",
+    "email": "alice@example.com",
+    "status": "active"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Update
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "msg-4",
+  "type": "request",
+  "operation": "update",
+  "schema": "public",
+  "entity": "users",
+  "data": {
+    "id": 1,
+    "status": "inactive"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Delete
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "msg-5",
+  "type": "request",
+  "operation": "delete",
+  "schema": "public",
+  "entity": "users",
+  "data": {"id": 1}
+}
+```
+
+## Real-time Subscriptions
+
+### Subscribe to Entity Changes
+
+**Client Publishes to**: `spec/{client_id}/request`
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "msg-6",
+  "type": "subscription",
+  "operation": "subscribe",
+  "schema": "public",
+  "entity": "users",
+  "options": {
+    "filters": [
+      {"column": "status", "operator": "eq", "value": "active"}
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Server Response** (published to `spec/{client_id}/response`):
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "msg-6",
+  "success": true,
+  "data": {
+    "subscription_id": "sub-abc123",
+    "notify_topic": "spec/{client_id}/notify/sub-abc123"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Client Then Subscribes** to MQTT topic: `spec/{client_id}/notify/sub-abc123`
+
+### Receiving Notifications
+
+When any client creates/updates/deletes a user matching the subscription filters, the subscriber receives:
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "notification",
+  "operation": "create",
+  "subscription_id": "sub-abc123",
+  "schema": "public",
+  "entity": "users",
+  "data": {
+    "id": 10,
+    "name": "New User",
+    "email": "newuser@example.com",
+    "status": "active"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Unsubscribe
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "msg-7",
+  "type": "subscription",
+  "operation": "unsubscribe",
+  "data": {
+    "subscription_id": "sub-abc123"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Lifecycle Hooks
+
+MQTTSpec provides 12 lifecycle hooks for implementing cross-cutting concerns:
+
+### Hook Types
+
+- `BeforeConnect` / `AfterConnect` - Connection lifecycle
+- `BeforeDisconnect` / `AfterDisconnect` - Disconnection lifecycle
+- `BeforeRead` / `AfterRead` - Read operations
+- `BeforeCreate` / `AfterCreate` - Create operations
+- `BeforeUpdate` / `AfterUpdate` - Update operations
+- `BeforeDelete` / `AfterDelete` - Delete operations
+- `BeforeSubscribe` / `AfterSubscribe` - Subscription creation
+- `BeforeUnsubscribe` / `AfterUnsubscribe` - Subscription removal
+
+### Authentication Example (JWT)
+
+```go
+handler.Hooks().Register(mqttspec.BeforeConnect, func(ctx *mqttspec.HookContext) error {
+    client := ctx.Metadata["mqtt_client"].(*mqttspec.Client)
+
+    // MQTT username contains JWT token
+    token := client.Username
+    claims, err := jwt.Validate(token)
+    if err != nil {
+        return fmt.Errorf("invalid token: %w", err)
+    }
+
+    // Store user info in client metadata for later use
+    client.SetMetadata("user_id", claims.UserID)
+    client.SetMetadata("tenant_id", claims.TenantID)
+    client.SetMetadata("roles", claims.Roles)
+
+    logger.Info("Client authenticated: user_id=%d, tenant=%s", claims.UserID, claims.TenantID)
+    return nil
+})
+```
+
+### Multi-tenancy Example
+
+```go
+// Auto-inject tenant filter for all read operations
+handler.Hooks().Register(mqttspec.BeforeRead, func(ctx *mqttspec.HookContext) error {
+    client := ctx.Metadata["mqtt_client"].(*mqttspec.Client)
+    tenantID, _ := client.GetMetadata("tenant_id")
+
+    // Add tenant filter to ensure users only see their own data
+    ctx.Options.Filters = append(ctx.Options.Filters, common.FilterOption{
+        Column:   "tenant_id",
+        Operator: "eq",
+        Value:    tenantID,
+    })
+
+    return nil
+})
+
+// Auto-set tenant_id for all create operations
+handler.Hooks().Register(mqttspec.BeforeCreate, func(ctx *mqttspec.HookContext) error {
+    client := ctx.Metadata["mqtt_client"].(*mqttspec.Client)
+    tenantID, _ := client.GetMetadata("tenant_id")
+
+    // Inject tenant_id into new records
+    if dataMap, ok := ctx.Data.(map[string]interface{}); ok {
+        dataMap["tenant_id"] = tenantID
+    }
+
+    return nil
+})
+```
+
+### Role-based Access Control (RBAC)
+
+```go
+handler.Hooks().Register(mqttspec.BeforeDelete, func(ctx *mqttspec.HookContext) error {
+    client := ctx.Metadata["mqtt_client"].(*mqttspec.Client)
+    roles, _ := client.GetMetadata("roles")
+
+    roleList := roles.([]string)
+    hasAdminRole := false
+    for _, role := range roleList {
+        if role == "admin" {
+            hasAdminRole = true
+            break
+        }
+    }
+
+    if !hasAdminRole {
+        return fmt.Errorf("permission denied: delete requires admin role")
+    }
+
+    return nil
+})
+```
+
+### Audit Logging Example
+
+```go
+handler.Hooks().Register(mqttspec.AfterCreate, func(ctx *mqttspec.HookContext) error {
+    client := ctx.Metadata["mqtt_client"].(*mqttspec.Client)
+    userID, _ := client.GetMetadata("user_id")
+
+    logger.Info("Audit: user %d created %s.%s record: %+v",
+        userID, ctx.Schema, ctx.Entity, ctx.Result)
+
+    // Could also write to audit log table
+    return nil
+})
+```
+
+## Client Examples

+## Comparison: MQTTSpec vs WebSocketSpec
+
+| Feature | MQTTSpec | WebSocketSpec |
+|---------|----------|---------------|
+| **Transport** | MQTT (pub/sub broker) | WebSocket (direct connection) |
+| **Connection Model** | Broker-mediated | Direct client-server |
+| **QoS Levels** | QoS 0, 1, 2 support | No built-in QoS |
+| **Offline Messages** | Yes (with QoS 1+) | No |
+| **Auto-reconnect** | Yes (built into MQTT) | Manual implementation needed |
+| **Network Efficiency** | Better for unreliable networks | Better for low-latency |
+| **Best For** | IoT, mobile apps, distributed systems | Web applications, real-time dashboards |
+| **Message Protocol** | Same JSON structure | Same JSON structure |
+| **Hooks** | Same 12 hooks | Same 12 hooks |
+| **CRUD Operations** | Identical | Identical |
+| **Subscriptions** | Identical (via MQTT topics) | Identical (via app-level) |
+
+## Use Cases
+
+### IoT Sensor Data
+
+```go
+// Sensors publish data, backend stores and notifies subscribers
+handler.Registry().RegisterModel("public.sensor_readings", &SensorReading{})
+
+// Auto-set device_id from client metadata
+handler.Hooks().Register(mqttspec.BeforeCreate, func(ctx *mqttspec.HookContext) error {
+    client := ctx.Metadata["mqtt_client"].(*mqttspec.Client)
+    deviceID, _ := client.GetMetadata("device_id")
+
+    if ctx.Entity == "sensor_readings" {
+        if dataMap, ok := ctx.Data.(map[string]interface{}); ok {
+            dataMap["device_id"] = deviceID
+            dataMap["timestamp"] = time.Now()
+        }
+    }
+    return nil
+})
+```
+
+### Mobile App with Offline Support
+
+MQTTSpec's QoS 1 ensures messages are delivered even if the client temporarily disconnects.
+
+### Distributed Microservices
+
+Multiple services can subscribe to entity changes and react accordingly.

-## Using with Swagger UI
+## Using the Built-in UI Handler
 
-You can serve the generated OpenAPI spec with Swagger UI:
+The package includes a built-in UI handler that serves popular OpenAPI visualization tools. No need to download or manage static files - everything is served from CDN.
+
+### Quick Start
+
+```go
+import (
+    "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/openapi"
+    "github.com/gorilla/mux"
+)
+
+func main() {
+    router := mux.NewRouter()
+
+    // Setup your API routes and OpenAPI generator...
+    // (see examples above)
+
+    // Add the UI handler - defaults to Swagger UI
+    openapi.SetupUIRoute(router, "/docs", openapi.UIConfig{
+        UIType:  openapi.SwaggerUI,
+        SpecURL: "/openapi",
+        Title:   "My API Documentation",
+    })
+
+    // Now visit http://localhost:8080/docs
+    http.ListenAndServe(":8080", router)
+}
+```
+
+### Supported UI Frameworks
+
+The handler supports four popular OpenAPI UI frameworks:
+
+#### 1. Swagger UI (Default)
+The most widely used OpenAPI UI with excellent compatibility and features.
+
+```go
+openapi.SetupUIRoute(router, "/docs", openapi.UIConfig{
+    UIType: openapi.SwaggerUI,
+    Theme:  "dark", // optional: "light" or "dark"
+})
+```
+
+#### 2. RapiDoc
+Modern, customizable, and feature-rich OpenAPI UI.
+
+```go
+openapi.SetupUIRoute(router, "/docs", openapi.UIConfig{
+    UIType: openapi.RapiDoc,
+    Theme:  "dark",
+})
+```
+
+#### 3. Redoc
+Clean, responsive documentation with great UX.
+
+```go
+openapi.SetupUIRoute(router, "/docs", openapi.UIConfig{
+    UIType: openapi.Redoc,
+})
+```
+
+#### 4. Scalar
+Modern and sleek OpenAPI documentation.
+
+```go
+openapi.SetupUIRoute(router, "/docs", openapi.UIConfig{
+    UIType: openapi.Scalar,
+    Theme:  "dark",
+})
+```
+
+### Configuration Options
+
+```go
+type UIConfig struct {
+    UIType     UIType // SwaggerUI, RapiDoc, Redoc, or Scalar
+    SpecURL    string // URL to OpenAPI spec (default: "/openapi")
+    Title      string // Page title (default: "API Documentation")
+    FaviconURL string // Custom favicon URL (optional)
+    CustomCSS  string // Custom CSS to inject (optional)
+    Theme      string // "light" or "dark" (support varies by UI)
+}
+```
+
+### Custom Styling Example
+
+```go
+openapi.SetupUIRoute(router, "/docs", openapi.UIConfig{
+    UIType: openapi.SwaggerUI,
+    Title:  "Acme Corp API",
+    CustomCSS: `
+        .swagger-ui .topbar {
+            background-color: #1976d2;
+        }
+        .swagger-ui .info .title {
+            color: #1976d2;
+        }
+    `,
+})
+```
+
+### Using Multiple UIs
+
+You can serve different UIs at different paths:
+
+```go
+// Swagger UI at /docs
+openapi.SetupUIRoute(router, "/docs", openapi.UIConfig{
+    UIType: openapi.SwaggerUI,
+})
+
+// Redoc at /redoc
+openapi.SetupUIRoute(router, "/redoc", openapi.UIConfig{
+    UIType: openapi.Redoc,
+})
+
+// RapiDoc at /api-docs
+openapi.SetupUIRoute(router, "/api-docs", openapi.UIConfig{
+    UIType: openapi.RapiDoc,
+})
+```
+
+### Manual Handler Usage
+
+If you need more control, use the handler directly:
+
+```go
+handler := openapi.UIHandler(openapi.UIConfig{
+    UIType:  openapi.SwaggerUI,
+    SpecURL: "/api/openapi.json",
+})
+
+router.Handle("/documentation", handler)
+```
+
+## Using with External Swagger UI
+
+Alternatively, you can use an external Swagger UI instance:
 
 1. Get the spec from `/openapi`
 2. Load it in Swagger UI at `https://petstore.swagger.io/`
 3. Or self-host Swagger UI and point it to your `/openapi` endpoint
 
-Example with self-hosted Swagger UI:
-
-```go
-// Serve Swagger UI static files
-router.PathPrefix("/swagger/").Handler(
-    http.StripPrefix("/swagger/", http.FileServer(http.Dir("./swagger-ui"))),
-)
-
-// Configure Swagger UI to use /openapi
-```
-
 ## Testing

+# ResolveSpec - Body-Based REST API
+
+ResolveSpec provides a REST API where query options are passed in the JSON request body. This approach offers GraphQL-like flexibility while maintaining RESTful principles, making it ideal for complex queries and operations.
+
+## Features
+
+* **Body-Based Querying**: All query options passed via JSON request body
+* **Lifecycle Hooks**: Before/after hooks for create, read, update, delete operations
+* **Cursor Pagination**: Efficient cursor-based pagination with complex sorting
+* **Offset Pagination**: Traditional limit/offset pagination support
+* **Advanced Filtering**: Multiple operators, AND/OR logic, and custom SQL
+* **Relationship Preloading**: Load related entities with custom column selection and filters
+* **Recursive CRUD**: Automatically handle nested object graphs with foreign key resolution
+* **Computed Columns**: Define virtual columns with SQL expressions
+* **Database-Agnostic**: Works with GORM, Bun, or custom database adapters
+* **Router-Agnostic**: Integrates with any HTTP router through standard interfaces
+* **Type-Safe**: Strong type validation and conversion
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Setup with GORM
+
+```go
+import "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/resolvespec"
+import "github.com/gorilla/mux"
+
+// Create handler
+handler := resolvespec.NewHandlerWithGORM(db)
+
+// IMPORTANT: Register models BEFORE setting up routes
+handler.registry.RegisterModel("core.users", &User{})
+handler.registry.RegisterModel("core.posts", &Post{})
+
+// Setup routes
+router := mux.NewRouter()
+resolvespec.SetupMuxRoutes(router, handler, nil)
+
+// Start server
+http.ListenAndServe(":8080", router)
+```
+
+### Setup with Bun ORM
+
+```go
+import "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/resolvespec"
+import "github.com/uptrace/bun"
+
+// Create handler with Bun
+handler := resolvespec.NewHandlerWithBun(bunDB)
+
+// Register models
+handler.registry.RegisterModel("core.users", &User{})
+
+// Setup routes (same as GORM)
+router := mux.NewRouter()
+resolvespec.SetupMuxRoutes(router, handler, nil)
+```
+
+## Basic Usage
+
+### Simple Read Request
+
+```http
+POST /core/users HTTP/1.1
+Content-Type: application/json
+

+### Complex Filtering Example
+
+```json
+{
+  "operation": "read",
+  "options": {
+    "filters": [
+      {
+        "column": "status",
+        "operator": "eq",
+        "value": "active"
+      },
+      {
+        "column": "age",
+        "operator": "gte",
+        "value": 18
+      },
+      {
+        "column": "email",
+        "operator": "ilike",
+        "value": "%@company.com"
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Preloading
+
+Load related entities with custom configuration:
+
+```json
+{
+  "operation": "read",
+  "options": {
+    "columns": ["id", "name", "email"],
+    "preload": [
+      {
+        "relation": "posts",
+        "columns": ["id", "title", "created_at"],
+        "filters": [
+          {
+            "column": "status",
+            "operator": "eq",
+            "value": "published"
+          }
+        ],
+        "sort": [
+          {
+            "column": "created_at",
+            "direction": "desc"
+          }
+        ],
+        "limit": 5
+      },
+      {
+        "relation": "profile",
+        "columns": ["bio", "website"]
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Cursor Pagination
+
+Efficient pagination for large datasets:
+
+### First Request (No Cursor)
+
+```json
+{
+  "operation": "read",
+  "options": {
+    "sort": [
+      {
+        "column": "created_at",
+        "direction": "desc"
+      },
+      {
+        "column": "id",
+        "direction": "asc"
+      }
+    ],
+    "limit": 50
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Next Page (Forward Cursor)
+
+```json
+{
+  "operation": "read",
+  "options": {
+    "sort": [
+      {
+        "column": "created_at",
+        "direction": "desc"
+      },
+      {
+        "column": "id",
+        "direction": "asc"
+      }
+    ],
+    "limit": 50,
+    "cursor_forward": "12345"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Previous Page (Backward Cursor)
+
+```json
+{
+  "operation": "read",
+  "options": {
+    "sort": [
+      {
+        "column": "created_at",
+        "direction": "desc"
+      },
+      {
+        "column": "id",
+        "direction": "asc"
+      }
+    ],
+    "limit": 50,
+    "cursor_backward": "12300"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Benefits over offset pagination**:
+* Consistent results when data changes
+* Better performance for large offsets
+* Prevents "skipped" or duplicate records
+* Works with complex sort expressions
+
+## Recursive CRUD Operations
+
+Automatically handle nested object graphs with intelligent foreign key resolution.
+
+### Creating Nested Objects
+
+```json
+{
+  "operation": "create",
+  "data": {
+    "name": "John Doe",
+    "email": "john@example.com",
+    "posts": [
+      {
+        "title": "My First Post",
+        "content": "Hello World",
+        "tags": [
+          {"name": "tech"},
+          {"name": "programming"}
+        ]
+      },
+      {
+        "title": "Second Post",
+        "content": "More content"
+      }
+    ],
+    "profile": {
+      "bio": "Software Developer",
+      "website": "https://example.com"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Per-Record Operation Control with `_request`
+
+Control individual operations for each nested record:
+
+```json
+{
+  "operation": "update",
+  "data": {
+    "name": "John Updated",
+    "posts": [
+      {
+        "_request": "insert",
+        "title": "New Post",
+        "content": "Fresh content"
+      },
+      {
+        "_request": "update",
+        "id": 456,
+        "title": "Updated Post Title"
+      },
+      {
+        "_request": "delete",
+        "id": 789
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Supported `_request` values**:
+* `insert` - Create a new related record
+* `update` - Update an existing related record
+* `delete` - Delete a related record
+* `upsert` - Create if doesn't exist, update if exists
+
+**How It Works**:
+1. Automatic foreign key resolution - parent IDs propagate to children
+2. Recursive processing - handles nested relationships at any depth
+3. Transaction safety - all operations execute atomically
+4. Relationship detection - automatically detects belongsTo, hasMany, hasOne, many2many
+5. Flexible operations - mix create, update, and delete in one request
+
+## Computed Columns
+
+Define virtual columns using SQL expressions:
+
+```json
+{
+  "operation": "read",
+  "options": {
+    "columns": ["id", "first_name", "last_name"],
+    "computedColumns": [
+      {
+        "name": "full_name",
+        "expression": "CONCAT(first_name, ' ', last_name)"
+      },
+      {
+        "name": "age_years",
+        "expression": "EXTRACT(YEAR FROM AGE(birth_date))"
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Custom Operators
+
+Add custom SQL conditions when needed:
+
+```json
+{
+  "operation": "read",
+  "options": {
+    "customOperators": [
+      {
+        "condition": "LOWER(email) LIKE ?",
+        "values": ["%@example.com"]
+      },
+      {
+        "condition": "created_at > NOW() - INTERVAL '7 days'"
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Lifecycle Hooks
+
+Register hooks for all CRUD operations:
+
+```go
+import "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/resolvespec"
+
+// Create handler
+handler := resolvespec.NewHandlerWithGORM(db)
+
+// Register a before-read hook (e.g., for authorization)
+handler.Hooks().Register(resolvespec.BeforeRead, func(ctx *resolvespec.HookContext) error {
+    // Check permissions
+    if !userHasPermission(ctx.Context, ctx.Entity) {
+        return fmt.Errorf("unauthorized access to %s", ctx.Entity)
+    }
+
+    // Modify query options
+    if ctx.Options.Limit == nil || *ctx.Options.Limit > 100 {
+        ctx.Options.Limit = ptr(100) // Enforce max limit
+    }
+
+    return nil
+})
+
+// Register an after-read hook (e.g., for data transformation)
+handler.Hooks().Register(resolvespec.AfterRead, func(ctx *resolvespec.HookContext) error {
+    // Transform or filter results
+    if users, ok := ctx.Result.([]User); ok {
+        for i := range users {
+            users[i].Email = maskEmail(users[i].Email)
+        }
+    }
+    return nil
+})
+
+// Register a before-create hook (e.g., for validation)
+handler.Hooks().Register(resolvespec.BeforeCreate, func(ctx *resolvespec.HookContext) error {
+    // Validate data
+    if user, ok := ctx.Data.(*User); ok {
+        if user.Email == "" {
+            return fmt.Errorf("email is required")
+        }
+        // Add timestamps
+        user.CreatedAt = time.Now()
+    }
+    return nil
+})
+```
+
+**Available Hook Types**:
+* `BeforeRead`, `AfterRead`
+* `BeforeCreate`, `AfterCreate`
+* `BeforeUpdate`, `AfterUpdate`
+* `BeforeDelete`, `AfterDelete`
+
+**HookContext** provides:
+* `Context`: Request context
+* `Handler`: Access to handler, database, and registry
+* `Schema`, `Entity`, `TableName`: Request info
+* `Model`: The registered model type
+* `Options`: Parsed request options (filters, sorting, etc.)
+* `ID`: Record ID (for single-record operations)
+* `Data`: Request data (for create/update)
+* `Result`: Operation result (for after hooks)
+* `Writer`: Response writer (allows hooks to modify response)
+
+## Model Registration
+
+```go
+type User struct {
+    ID        uint      `json:"id" gorm:"primaryKey"`
+    Name      string    `json:"name"`
+    Email     string    `json:"email"`
+    Status    string    `json:"status"`
+    CreatedAt time.Time `json:"created_at"`
+    Posts     []Post    `json:"posts,omitempty" gorm:"foreignKey:UserID"`
+    Profile   *Profile  `json:"profile,omitempty" gorm:"foreignKey:UserID"`
+}
+
+type Post struct {
+    ID        uint      `json:"id" gorm:"primaryKey"`
+    UserID    uint      `json:"user_id"`
+    Title     string    `json:"title"`
+    Content   string    `json:"content"`
+    Status    string    `json:"status"`
+    CreatedAt time.Time `json:"created_at"`
+    Tags      []Tag     `json:"tags,omitempty" gorm:"many2many:post_tags"`
+}
+
+// Schema.Table format
+handler.registry.RegisterModel("core.users", &User{})
+handler.registry.RegisterModel("core.posts", &Post{})
+```
+

+}
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+ResolveSpec is designed for testability:
+
+```go
+import (
+    "bytes"
+    "encoding/json"
+    "net/http/httptest"
+    "testing"
+)
+
+func TestUserRead(t *testing.T) {
+    handler := resolvespec.NewHandlerWithGORM(testDB)
+    handler.registry.RegisterModel("core.users", &User{})
+
+    reqBody := map[string]interface{}{
+        "operation": "read",
+        "options": map[string]interface{}{
+            "columns": []string{"id", "name"},
+            "limit":   10,
+        },
+    }
+
+    body, _ := json.Marshal(reqBody)
+    req := httptest.NewRequest("POST", "/core/users", bytes.NewReader(body))
+    rec := httptest.NewRecorder()
+
+    // Test your handler...
+}
+```
+
+## Router Integration
+
+### Gorilla Mux
+
+```go
+router := mux.NewRouter()
+resolvespec.SetupMuxRoutes(router, handler, nil)
+```
+
+### BunRouter
+
+```go
+router := bunrouter.New()
+resolvespec.SetupBunRouterWithResolveSpec(router, handler)
+```
+
+### Custom Routers
+
+```go
+// Implement custom integration using common.Request and common.ResponseWriter
+router.POST("/:schema/:entity", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    params := extractParams(r) // Your param extraction logic
+    reqAdapter := router.NewHTTPRequest(r)
+    respAdapter := router.NewHTTPResponseWriter(w)
+    handler.Handle(respAdapter, reqAdapter, params)
+})

+# RestHeadSpec - Header-Based REST API
+
+RestHeadSpec provides a REST API where all query options are passed via HTTP headers instead of the request body. This provides cleaner separation between data and metadata, making it ideal for GET requests and RESTful architectures.
+
+## Features
+
+* **Header-Based Querying**: All query options via HTTP headers
+* **Lifecycle Hooks**: Before/after hooks for create, read, update, delete operations
+* **Cursor Pagination**: Efficient cursor-based pagination with complex sorting
+* **Advanced Filtering**: Field filters, search operators, AND/OR logic
+* **Multiple Response Formats**: Simple, detailed, and Syncfusion-compatible responses
+* **Single Record as Object**: Automatically return single-element arrays as objects (default)
+* **Base64 Support**: Base64-encoded header values for complex queries
+* **Type-Aware Filtering**: Automatic type detection and conversion
+* **CORS Support**: Comprehensive CORS headers for cross-origin requests
+* **OPTIONS Method**: Full OPTIONS support for CORS preflight
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Setup with GORM
+
+```go
+import "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/restheadspec"
+import "github.com/gorilla/mux"
+
+// Create handler
+handler := restheadspec.NewHandlerWithGORM(db)
+
+// IMPORTANT: Register models BEFORE setting up routes
+handler.Registry.RegisterModel("public.users", &User{})
+handler.Registry.RegisterModel("public.posts", &Post{})
+
+// Setup routes
+router := mux.NewRouter()
+restheadspec.SetupMuxRoutes(router, handler, nil)
+
+// Start server
+http.ListenAndServe(":8080", router)
+```
+
+### Setup with Bun ORM
+
+```go
+import "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/restheadspec"
+import "github.com/uptrace/bun"
+
+// Create handler with Bun
+handler := restheadspec.NewHandlerWithBun(bunDB)
+
+// Register models
+handler.Registry.RegisterModel("public.users", &User{})
+
+// Setup routes (same as GORM)
+router := mux.NewRouter()
+restheadspec.SetupMuxRoutes(router, handler, nil)
+```
+
+## Basic Usage
+
+### Simple GET Request
+
+```http
+GET /public/users HTTP/1.1
+Host: api.example.com
+X-Select-Fields: id,name,email
+X-FieldFilter-Status: active
+X-Sort: -created_at
+X-Limit: 50
+```
+
+### With Preloading
+
+```http
+GET /public/users HTTP/1.1
+X-Select-Fields: id,name,email,department_id
+X-Preload: department:id,name
+X-FieldFilter-Status: active
+X-Limit: 50
+```
+
+## Common Headers
+
+| Header | Description | Example |
+|--------|-------------|---------|
+| `X-Select-Fields` | Columns to include | `id,name,email` |
+| `X-Not-Select-Fields` | Columns to exclude | `password,internal_notes` |
+| `X-FieldFilter-{col}` | Exact match filter | `X-FieldFilter-Status: active` |
+| `X-SearchFilter-{col}` | Fuzzy search (ILIKE) | `X-SearchFilter-Name: john` |
+| `X-SearchOp-{op}-{col}` | Filter with operator | `X-SearchOp-Gte-Age: 18` |
+| `X-Preload` | Preload relations | `posts:id,title` |
+| `X-Sort` | Sort columns | `-created_at,+name` |
+| `X-Limit` | Limit results | `50` |
+| `X-Offset` | Offset for pagination | `100` |
+| `X-Clean-JSON` | Remove null/empty fields | `true` |
+| `X-Single-Record-As-Object` | Return single records as objects | `false` |
+
+**Available Operators**: `eq`, `neq`, `gt`, `gte`, `lt`, `lte`, `contains`, `startswith`, `endswith`, `between`, `betweeninclusive`, `in`, `empty`, `notempty`
+
+For complete header documentation, see [HEADERS.md](HEADERS.md).
+
+## Lifecycle Hooks
+
+RestHeadSpec supports lifecycle hooks for all CRUD operations:
+
+```go
+import "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/restheadspec"
+
+// Create handler
+handler := restheadspec.NewHandlerWithGORM(db)
+
+// Register a before-read hook (e.g., for authorization)
+handler.Hooks.Register(restheadspec.BeforeRead, func(ctx *restheadspec.HookContext) error {
+    // Check permissions
+    if !userHasPermission(ctx.Context, ctx.Entity) {
+        return fmt.Errorf("unauthorized access to %s", ctx.Entity)
+    }
+
+    // Modify query options
+    ctx.Options.Limit = ptr(100) // Enforce max limit
+
+    return nil
+})
+
+// Register an after-read hook (e.g., for data transformation)
+handler.Hooks.Register(restheadspec.AfterRead, func(ctx *restheadspec.HookContext) error {
+    // Transform or filter results
+    if users, ok := ctx.Result.([]User); ok {
+        for i := range users {
+            users[i].Email = maskEmail(users[i].Email)
+        }
+    }
+    return nil
+})
+
+// Register a before-create hook (e.g., for validation)
+handler.Hooks.Register(restheadspec.BeforeCreate, func(ctx *restheadspec.HookContext) error {
+    // Validate data
+    if user, ok := ctx.Data.(*User); ok {
+        if user.Email == "" {
+            return fmt.Errorf("email is required")
+        }
+        // Add timestamps
+        user.CreatedAt = time.Now()
+    }
+    return nil
+})
+```
+
+**Available Hook Types**:
+* `BeforeRead`, `AfterRead`
+* `BeforeCreate`, `AfterCreate`
+* `BeforeUpdate`, `AfterUpdate`
+* `BeforeDelete`, `AfterDelete`
+
+**HookContext** provides:
+* `Context`: Request context
+* `Handler`: Access to handler, database, and registry
+* `Schema`, `Entity`, `TableName`: Request info
+* `Model`: The registered model type
+* `Options`: Parsed request options (filters, sorting, etc.)
+* `ID`: Record ID (for single-record operations)
+* `Data`: Request data (for create/update)
+* `Result`: Operation result (for after hooks)
+* `Writer`: Response writer (allows hooks to modify response)
+
+## Cursor Pagination
+
+RestHeadSpec supports efficient cursor-based pagination for large datasets:
+
+```http
+GET /public/posts HTTP/1.1
+X-Sort: -created_at,+id
+X-Limit: 50
+X-Cursor-Forward: <cursor_token>
+```
+
+**How it works**:
+1. First request returns results + cursor token in response
+2. Subsequent requests use `X-Cursor-Forward` or `X-Cursor-Backward`
+3. Cursor maintains consistent ordering even with data changes
+4. Supports complex multi-column sorting
+
+**Benefits over offset pagination**:
+* Consistent results when data changes
+* Better performance for large offsets
+* Prevents "skipped" or duplicate records
+* Works with complex sort expressions
+
+**Example with hooks**:
+
+```go
+// Enable cursor pagination in a hook
+handler.Hooks.Register(restheadspec.BeforeRead, func(ctx *restheadspec.HookContext) error {
+    // For large tables, enforce cursor pagination
+    if ctx.Entity == "posts" && ctx.Options.Offset != nil && *ctx.Options.Offset > 1000 {
+        return fmt.Errorf("use cursor pagination for large offsets")
+    }
+    return nil
+})
+```
+
+## Response Formats
+
+RestHeadSpec supports multiple response formats:
+
+**1. Simple Format** (`X-SimpleApi: true`):
+
+```json
+[
+  { "id": 1, "name": "John" },
+  { "id": 2, "name": "Jane" }
+]
+```
+
+**2. Detail Format** (`X-DetailApi: true`, default):
+
+```json
+{
+  "success": true,
+  "data": [...],
+  "metadata": {
+    "total": 100,
+    "filtered": 100,
+    "limit": 50,
+    "offset": 0
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**3. Syncfusion Format** (`X-Syncfusion: true`):
+
+```json
+{
+  "result": [...],
+  "count": 100
+}
+```
+
+## Single Record as Object (Default Behavior)
+
+By default, RestHeadSpec automatically converts single-element arrays into objects for cleaner API responses.
+
+**Default behavior (enabled)**:
+
+```http
+GET /public/users/123
+```
+
+```json
+{
+  "success": true,
+  "data": { "id": 123, "name": "John", "email": "john@example.com" }
+}
+```
+
+**To disable** (force arrays):
+
+```http
+GET /public/users/123
+X-Single-Record-As-Object: false
+```
+
+```json
+{
+  "success": true,
+  "data": [{ "id": 123, "name": "John", "email": "john@example.com" }]
+}
+```
+
+**How it works**:
+* When a query returns exactly **one record**, it's returned as an object
+* When a query returns **multiple records**, they're returned as an array
+* Set `X-Single-Record-As-Object: false` to always receive arrays
+* Works with all response formats (simple, detail, syncfusion)
+* Applies to both read operations and create/update returning clauses
+
+## CORS & OPTIONS Support
+
+RestHeadSpec includes comprehensive CORS support for cross-origin requests:
+
+**OPTIONS Method**:
+
+```http
+OPTIONS /public/users HTTP/1.1
+```
+
+Returns metadata with appropriate CORS headers:
+
+```http
+Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
+Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, POST, OPTIONS
+Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Content-Type, Authorization, X-Select-Fields, X-FieldFilter-*, ...
+Access-Control-Max-Age: 86400
+Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true
+```
+
+**Key Features**:
+* OPTIONS returns model metadata (same as GET metadata endpoint)
+* All HTTP methods include CORS headers automatically
+* OPTIONS requests don't require authentication (CORS preflight)
+* Supports all HeadSpec custom headers (`X-Select-Fields`, `X-FieldFilter-*`, etc.)
+* 24-hour max age to reduce preflight requests
+
+**Configuration**:
+
+```go
+import "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/common"
+
+// Get default CORS config
+corsConfig := common.DefaultCORSConfig()
+
+// Customize if needed
+corsConfig.AllowedOrigins = []string{"https://example.com"}
+corsConfig.AllowedMethods = []string{"GET", "POST", "PUT", "DELETE", "OPTIONS"}
+```
+
+## Advanced Features
+
+### Base64 Encoding
+
+For complex header values, use base64 encoding:
+
+```http
+GET /public/users HTTP/1.1
+X-Select-Fields-Base64: aWQsbmFtZSxlbWFpbA==
+```
+
+### AND/OR Logic
+
+Combine multiple filters with AND/OR logic:
+
+```http
+GET /public/users HTTP/1.1
+X-FieldFilter-Status: active
+X-SearchOp-Gte-Age: 18
+X-Filter-Logic: AND
+```
+
+### Complex Preloading
+
+Load nested relationships:
+
+```http
+GET /public/users HTTP/1.1
+X-Preload: posts:id,title,comments:id,text,author:name
+```
+
+## Model Registration
+
+```go
+type User struct {
+    ID    uint   `json:"id" gorm:"primaryKey"`
+    Name  string `json:"name"`
+    Email string `json:"email"`
+    Posts []Post `json:"posts,omitempty" gorm:"foreignKey:UserID"`
+}
+
+// Schema.Table format
+handler.Registry.RegisterModel("public.users", &User{})
+```
+
+## Complete Example
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+    "log"
+    "net/http"
+
+    "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/restheadspec"
+    "github.com/gorilla/mux"
+    "gorm.io/driver/postgres"
+    "gorm.io/gorm"
+)
+
+type User struct {
+    ID     uint   `json:"id" gorm:"primaryKey"`
+    Name   string `json:"name"`
+    Email  string `json:"email"`
+    Status string `json:"status"`
+}
+
+func main() {
+    // Connect to database
+    db, err := gorm.Open(postgres.Open("your-connection-string"), &gorm.Config{})
+    if err != nil {
+        log.Fatal(err)
+    }
+
+    // Create handler
+    handler := restheadspec.NewHandlerWithGORM(db)
+
+    // Register models
+    handler.Registry.RegisterModel("public.users", &User{})
+
+    // Add hooks
+    handler.Hooks.Register(restheadspec.BeforeRead, func(ctx *restheadspec.HookContext) error {
+        log.Printf("Reading %s", ctx.Entity)
+        return nil
+    })
+
+    // Setup routes
+    router := mux.NewRouter()
+    restheadspec.SetupMuxRoutes(router, handler, nil)
+
+    // Start server
+    log.Println("Server starting on :8080")
+    log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe(":8080", router))
+}
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+RestHeadSpec is designed for testability:
+
+```go
+import (
+    "net/http/httptest"
+    "testing"
+)
+
+func TestUserRead(t *testing.T) {
+    handler := restheadspec.NewHandlerWithGORM(testDB)
+    handler.Registry.RegisterModel("public.users", &User{})
+
+    req := httptest.NewRequest("GET", "/public/users", nil)
+    req.Header.Set("X-Select-Fields", "id,name")
+    req.Header.Set("X-Limit", "10")
+
+    rec := httptest.NewRecorder()
+    // Test your handler...
+}
+```

+Production-ready HTTP server manager with graceful shutdown, request draining, and comprehensive TLS/HTTPS support.
+
+## Features
+
+✅ **Multiple Server Management** - Run multiple HTTP/HTTPS servers concurrently
+✅ **Graceful Shutdown** - Handles SIGINT/SIGTERM with request draining
+✅ **Automatic Request Rejection** - New requests get 503 during shutdown
+✅ **Health & Readiness Endpoints** - Kubernetes-ready health checks
+✅ **Shutdown Callbacks** - Register cleanup functions (DB, cache, metrics)
+✅ **Comprehensive TLS Support**:
+  - Certificate files (production)
+  - Self-signed certificates (development/testing)
+  - Let's Encrypt / AutoTLS (automatic certificate management)
+✅ **GZIP Compression** - Optional response compression
+✅ **Panic Recovery** - Automatic panic recovery middleware
+✅ **Configurable Timeouts** - Read, write, idle, drain, and shutdown timeouts
 
 ## Quick Start
 
+### Single Server
+
 ```go
 import "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/server"
 
-// Create server
-srv := server.NewGracefulServer(server.Config{
-    Addr:    ":8080",
-    Handler: router,
+// Create server manager
+mgr := server.NewManager()
+
+// Add server
+_, err := mgr.Add(server.Config{
+    Name:    "api-server",
+    Host:    "localhost",
+    Port:    8080,
+    Handler: myRouter,
+    GZIP:    true,
 })
 
-// Start server (blocks until shutdown signal)
-if err := srv.ListenAndServe(); err != nil {
+// Start and wait for shutdown signal
+if err := mgr.ServeWithGracefulShutdown(); err != nil {
     log.Fatal(err)
 }
 ```
 
-## Features
+### Multiple Servers
 
-✅ Graceful shutdown on SIGINT/SIGTERM
-✅ Request draining (waits for in-flight requests)
-✅ Automatic request rejection during shutdown
-✅ Health and readiness endpoints
-✅ Shutdown callbacks for cleanup
-✅ Configurable timeouts
+```go
+mgr := server.NewManager()
+
+// Public API
+mgr.Add(server.Config{
+    Name:    "public-api",
+    Port:    8080,
+    Handler: publicRouter,
+})
+
+// Admin API
+mgr.Add(server.Config{
+    Name:    "admin-api",
+    Port:    8081,
+    Handler: adminRouter,
+})
+
+// Start all and wait
+mgr.ServeWithGracefulShutdown()
+```
+
+## HTTPS/TLS Configuration
+
+### Option 1: Certificate Files (Production)
+
+```go
+mgr.Add(server.Config{
+    Name:    "https-server",
+    Host:    "0.0.0.0",
+    Port:    443,
+    Handler: handler,
+    SSLCert: "/etc/ssl/certs/server.crt",
+    SSLKey:  "/etc/ssl/private/server.key",
+})
+```
+
+### Option 2: Self-Signed Certificate (Development)
+
+```go
+mgr.Add(server.Config{
+    Name:          "dev-server",
+    Host:          "localhost",
+    Port:          8443,
+    Handler:       handler,
+    SelfSignedSSL: true,  // Auto-generates certificate
+})
+```
+
+### Option 3: Let's Encrypt / AutoTLS (Production)
+
+```go
+mgr.Add(server.Config{
+    Name:            "prod-server",
+    Host:            "0.0.0.0",
+    Port:            443,
+    Handler:         handler,
+    AutoTLS:         true,
+    AutoTLSDomains:  []string{"example.com", "www.example.com"},
+    AutoTLSEmail:    "admin@example.com",

-## Shutdown Behavior
+## Graceful Shutdown
 
-**Signal received (SIGINT/SIGTERM):**
+### Automatic (Recommended)
 
-1. **Mark as shutting down** - New requests get 503
-2. **Drain requests** - Wait up to `DrainTimeout` for in-flight requests
-3. **Shutdown server** - Close listeners and connections
-4. **Execute callbacks** - Run registered cleanup functions
+```go
+mgr := server.NewManager()
 
+// Add servers...
+
+// This blocks until SIGINT/SIGTERM
+mgr.ServeWithGracefulShutdown()
 ```
-Time   Event
-─────────────────────────────────────────
-0s     Signal received: SIGTERM
-       ├─ Mark as shutting down
-       ├─ Reject new requests (503)
-       └─ Start draining...
 
-1s     In-flight: 50 requests
-2s     In-flight: 32 requests
-3s     In-flight: 12 requests
-4s     In-flight: 3 requests
-5s     In-flight: 0 requests ✓
-       └─ All requests drained
+### Manual Control
 
-5s     Execute shutdown callbacks
-6s     Shutdown complete
+```go
+mgr := server.NewManager()
+
+// Add and start servers
+mgr.StartAll()
+
+// Later... stop gracefully
+ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 30*time.Second)
+defer cancel()
+
+if err := mgr.StopAllWithContext(ctx); err != nil {
+    log.Printf("Shutdown error: %v", err)
+}
+```
+
+### Shutdown Callbacks
+
+Register cleanup functions to run during shutdown:
+
+```go
+// Close database
+mgr.RegisterShutdownCallback(func(ctx context.Context) error {
+    log.Println("Closing database...")
+    return db.Close()
+})
+
+// Flush metrics
+mgr.RegisterShutdownCallback(func(ctx context.Context) error {
+    log.Println("Flushing metrics...")
+    return metrics.Flush(ctx)
+})
+
+// Close cache
+mgr.RegisterShutdownCallback(func(ctx context.Context) error {
+    log.Println("Closing cache...")
+    return cache.Close()
+})
 ```
 
 ## Health Checks
 
-### Health Endpoint
-
-Returns 200 when healthy, 503 when shutting down:
+### Adding Health Endpoints
 
 ```go
-router.HandleFunc("/health", srv.HealthCheckHandler())
+instance, _ := mgr.Add(server.Config{
+    Name:    "api-server",
+    Port:    8080,
+    Handler: router,
+})
+
+// Add health endpoints to your router
+router.HandleFunc("/health", instance.HealthCheckHandler())
+router.HandleFunc("/ready", instance.ReadinessHandler())
 ```
 
-**Response (healthy):**
+### Health Endpoint
+
+Returns server health status:
+
+**Healthy (200 OK):**
 ```json
 {"status":"healthy"}
 ```
 
-**Response (shutting down):**
+**Shutting Down (503 Service Unavailable):**
 ```json
 {"status":"shutting_down"}
 ```
 
 ### Readiness Endpoint
 
-Includes in-flight request count:
+Returns readiness with in-flight request count:
 
-```go
-router.HandleFunc("/ready", srv.ReadinessHandler())
-```
-
-**Response:**
+**Ready (200 OK):**
 ```json
 {"ready":true,"in_flight_requests":12}
 ```
 
-**During shutdown:**
+**Not Ready (503 Service Unavailable):**
 ```json
 {"ready":false,"reason":"shutting_down"}
 ```
 
-## Shutdown Callbacks
+## Shutdown Behavior
 
-Register cleanup functions to run during shutdown:
+When a shutdown signal (SIGINT/SIGTERM) is received:

+# StaticWeb - Interface-Driven Static File Server
+
+StaticWeb is a flexible, interface-driven Go package for serving static files over HTTP. It supports multiple filesystem backends (local, zip, embedded) and provides pluggable policies for caching, MIME types, and fallback strategies.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Router-Agnostic**: Works with any HTTP router through standard `http.Handler`
+- **Multiple Filesystem Providers**: Local directories, zip files, embedded filesystems
+- **Pluggable Policies**: Customizable cache, MIME type, and fallback strategies
+- **Thread-Safe**: Safe for concurrent use
+- **Resource Management**: Proper lifecycle management with `Close()` methods
+- **Extensible**: Easy to add new providers and policies
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+go get github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/server/staticweb
+```
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Basic Usage
+
+Serve files from a local directory:
+
+```go
+import "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/server/staticweb"
+
+// Create service
+service := staticweb.NewService(nil)
+
+// Mount a local directory
+provider, _ := staticweb.LocalProvider("./public")
+service.Mount(staticweb.MountConfig{
+    URLPrefix: "/static",
+    Provider:  provider,
+})
+
+// Use with any router
+router.PathPrefix("/").Handler(service.Handler())
+```
+
+### Single Page Application (SPA)
+
+Serve an SPA with HTML fallback routing:
+
+```go
+service := staticweb.NewService(nil)
+
+provider, _ := staticweb.LocalProvider("./dist")
+service.Mount(staticweb.MountConfig{
+    URLPrefix:        "/",
+    Provider:         provider,
+    FallbackStrategy: staticweb.HTMLFallback("index.html"),
+})
+
+// API routes take precedence (registered first)
+router.HandleFunc("/api/users", usersHandler)
+router.HandleFunc("/api/posts", postsHandler)
+
+// Static files handle all other routes
+router.PathPrefix("/").Handler(service.Handler())
+```
+
+## Filesystem Providers
+
+### Local Directory
+
+Serve files from a local filesystem directory:
+
+```go
+provider, err := staticweb.LocalProvider("/var/www/static")
+```
+
+### Zip File
+
+Serve files from a zip archive:
+
+```go
+provider, err := staticweb.ZipProvider("./static.zip")
+```
+
+### Embedded Filesystem
+
+Serve files from Go's embedded filesystem:
+
+```go
+//go:embed assets
+var assets embed.FS
+
+// Direct embedded FS
+provider, err := staticweb.EmbedProvider(&assets, "")
+
+// Or from a zip file within embedded FS
+provider, err := staticweb.EmbedProvider(&assets, "assets.zip")
+```
+
+## Cache Policies
+
+### Simple Cache
+
+Single TTL for all files:
+
+```go
+cachePolicy := staticweb.SimpleCache(3600) // 1 hour
+```
+
+### Extension-Based Cache
+
+Different TTLs per file type:
+
+```go
+rules := map[string]int{
+    ".html": 3600,   // 1 hour
+    ".js":   86400,  // 1 day
+    ".css":  86400,  // 1 day
+    ".png":  604800, // 1 week
+}
+
+cachePolicy := staticweb.ExtensionCache(rules, 3600) // default 1 hour
+```
+
+### No Cache
+
+Disable caching entirely:
+
+```go
+cachePolicy := staticweb.NoCache()
+```
+
+## Fallback Strategies
+
+### HTML Fallback
+
+Serve index.html for non-asset requests (SPA routing):
+
+```go
+fallback := staticweb.HTMLFallback("index.html")
+```
+
+### Extension-Based Fallback
+
+Skip fallback for known static assets:
+
+```go
+fallback := staticweb.DefaultExtensionFallback("index.html")
+```
+
+Custom extensions:
+
+```go
+staticExts := []string{".js", ".css", ".png", ".jpg"}
+fallback := staticweb.ExtensionFallback(staticExts, "index.html")
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Service Configuration
+
+```go
+config := &staticweb.ServiceConfig{
+    DefaultCacheTime: 3600,
+    DefaultMIMETypes: map[string]string{
+        ".webp": "image/webp",
+        ".wasm": "application/wasm",
+    },
+}
+
+service := staticweb.NewService(config)
+```
+
+### Mount Configuration
+
+```go
+service.Mount(staticweb.MountConfig{
+    URLPrefix:        "/static",
+    Provider:         provider,
+    CachePolicy:      cachePolicy,      // Optional
+    MIMEResolver:     mimeResolver,     // Optional
+    FallbackStrategy: fallbackStrategy, // Optional
+})
+```
+
+## Advanced Usage
+
+### Multiple Mount Points
+
+Serve different directories at different URL prefixes with different policies:
+
+```go
+service := staticweb.NewService(nil)
+
+// Long-lived assets
+assetsProvider, _ := staticweb.LocalProvider("./assets")
+service.Mount(staticweb.MountConfig{
+    URLPrefix:   "/assets",
+    Provider:    assetsProvider,
+    CachePolicy: staticweb.SimpleCache(604800), // 1 week
+})
+
+// Frequently updated HTML
+htmlProvider, _ := staticweb.LocalProvider("./public")
+service.Mount(staticweb.MountConfig{
+    URLPrefix:   "/",
+    Provider:    htmlProvider,
+    CachePolicy: staticweb.SimpleCache(300), // 5 minutes
+})
+```
+
+### Custom MIME Types
+
+```go
+mimeResolver := staticweb.DefaultMIMEResolver()
+mimeResolver.RegisterMIMEType(".webp", "image/webp")
+mimeResolver.RegisterMIMEType(".wasm", "application/wasm")
+
+service.Mount(staticweb.MountConfig{
+    URLPrefix:    "/static",
+    Provider:     provider,
+    MIMEResolver: mimeResolver,
+})
+```
+
+### Resource Cleanup
+
+Always close the service when done:
+
+```go
+service := staticweb.NewService(nil)
+defer service.Close()
+
+// ... mount and use service ...
+```
+
+Or unmount individual mount points:
+
+```go
+service.Unmount("/static")
+```
+
+### Reloading/Refreshing Content
+
+Reload providers to pick up changes from the underlying filesystem. This is particularly useful for zip files in development:
+
+```go
+// When zip file or directory contents change
+err := service.Reload()
+if err != nil {
+    log.Printf("Failed to reload: %v", err)
+}
+```
+
+Providers that support reloading:
+- **ZipFSProvider**: Reopens the zip file to pick up changes
+- **LocalFSProvider**: Refreshes the directory view (automatically picks up changes)
+- **EmbedFSProvider**: Not reloadable (embedded at compile time)
+
+You can also reload individual providers:
+
+```go
+if reloadable, ok := provider.(staticweb.ReloadableProvider); ok {
+    err := reloadable.Reload()
+    if err != nil {
+        log.Printf("Failed to reload: %v", err)
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Development Workflow Example:**
+
+```go
+service := staticweb.NewService(nil)
+
+provider, _ := staticweb.ZipProvider("./dist.zip")
+service.Mount(staticweb.MountConfig{
+    URLPrefix: "/app",
+    Provider:  provider,
+})
+
+// In development, reload when dist.zip is rebuilt
+go func() {
+    watcher := fsnotify.NewWatcher()
+    watcher.Add("./dist.zip")
+
+    for range watcher.Events {
+        log.Println("Reloading static files...")
+        if err := service.Reload(); err != nil {
+            log.Printf("Reload failed: %v", err)
+        }
+    }
+}()
+```
+
+## Router Integration
+
+### Gorilla Mux
+
+```go
+router := mux.NewRouter()
+router.HandleFunc("/api/users", usersHandler)
+router.PathPrefix("/").Handler(service.Handler())
+```
+
+### Standard http.ServeMux
+
+```go
+http.Handle("/api/", apiHandler)
+http.Handle("/", service.Handler())
+```
+
+### BunRouter
+
+```go
+router.GET("/api/users", usersHandler)
+router.GET("/*path", bunrouter.HTTPHandlerFunc(service.Handler()))
+```
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Core Interfaces
+
+#### FileSystemProvider
+
+Abstracts the source of files:
+
+```go
+type FileSystemProvider interface {
+    Open(name string) (fs.File, error)
+    Close() error
+    Type() string
+}
+```
+
+Implementations:
+- `LocalFSProvider` - Local directories
+- `ZipFSProvider` - Zip archives
+- `EmbedFSProvider` - Embedded filesystems
+
+#### CachePolicy
+
+Defines caching behavior:
+
+```go
+type CachePolicy interface {
+    GetCacheTime(path string) int
+    GetCacheHeaders(path string) map[string]string
+}
+```
+
+Implementations:
+- `SimpleCachePolicy` - Single TTL
+- `ExtensionBasedCachePolicy` - Per-extension TTL
+- `NoCachePolicy` - Disable caching
+
+#### FallbackStrategy
+
+Handles missing files:
+
+```go
+type FallbackStrategy interface {
+    ShouldFallback(path string) bool
+    GetFallbackPath(path string) string
+}
+```
+
+Implementations:
+- `NoFallback` - Return 404
+- `HTMLFallbackStrategy` - SPA routing
+- `ExtensionBasedFallback` - Skip known assets
+
+#### MIMETypeResolver
+
+Determines Content-Type:
+
+```go
+type MIMETypeResolver interface {
+    GetMIMEType(path string) string
+    RegisterMIMEType(extension, mimeType string)
+}
+```
+
+Implementations:
+- `DefaultMIMEResolver` - Common web types
+- `ConfigurableMIMEResolver` - Custom mappings
+
+## Testing
+
+### Mock Providers
+
+```go
+import staticwebtesting "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/server/staticweb/testing"
+
+provider := staticwebtesting.NewMockProvider(map[string][]byte{
+    "index.html": []byte("<html>test</html>"),
+    "app.js":     []byte("console.log('test')"),
+})
+
+service.Mount(staticweb.MountConfig{
+    URLPrefix: "/",
+    Provider:  provider,
+})
+```
+
+### Test Helpers
+
+```go
+req := httptest.NewRequest("GET", "/index.html", nil)
+rec := httptest.NewRecorder()
+
+service.Handler().ServeHTTP(rec, req)
+
+// Assert response
+assert.Equal(t, 200, rec.Code)
+```
+
+## Future Features
+
+The interface-driven design allows for easy extensibility:
+
+### Planned Providers
+
+- **HTTPFSProvider**: Fetch files from remote HTTP servers with local caching
+- **S3FSProvider**: Serve files from S3-compatible storage
+- **CompositeProvider**: Fallback chain across multiple providers
+- **MemoryProvider**: In-memory filesystem for testing
+
+### Planned Policies
+
+- **TimedCachePolicy**: Different cache times by time of day
+- **ConditionalCachePolicy**: Smart cache based on file size/type
+- **RegexFallbackStrategy**: Pattern-based routing
+

+
+## Contributing
+
+Contributions are welcome! The interface-driven design makes it easy to add new providers and policies without modifying existing code.
