v1.1.0

🚀 Release v1.1.0

This release includes important improvements to the API's validation system, clearer error messages, and expanded unit test coverage to improve robustness and developer experience.

🔧 PATCH, PUT, and Unit Tests

• Enhanced error messages in put and patch methods for improved clarity.
• Added additional validations for primary ID and input payloads in both methods.
• Introduced new unit tests in APIDBTest to cover error scenarios related to invalid IDs and malformed input.

🔧 URL Validation Unit Tests

• Fixed error responses in the API class to include appropriate HTTP status codes.
• Added unit tests in APITest to validate:
  • Uppercase and malformed URIs
  • Invalid characters
  • API and version structure
  • Trailing slashes in URIs
  • Plurality of resource names

🔧 Structural Validation Refactor

• Replaced the legacy run() method with a new validateRequest() function for centralized URI validation.
• Improved URI validation logic to enforce correct structure and disallow invalid characters.
• Added constants in constants.php to manage URI segment indexing.
• Implemented isPlural() in utils.php to ensure resources are named in plural form.
• Updated relevant tests to reflect new structure and error-handling logic.

🔧 Secondary Resource Validation

• Added validations to ensure:
  • Secondary resources are in plural form.
  • Corresponding entity class exists when a secondary ID is provided.
• Added unit tests in APITest to cover new error cases related to invalid secondary resources.
