Walkthrough

Three ORM models had their to_json() instance methods removed, eliminating explicit dictionary serialization logic. Concurrently, route paths in three blueprint collections were standardized from empty strings to forward slashes, affecting URL endpoint registration without altering underlying logic or data models.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
ORM Model Cleanup app/models.py	Removed to_json() methods from Category, Subcategory, and Product classes—no serialization logic exposed from these models.
Route Path Standardization app/routes/category.py, app/routes/product.py, app/routes/subcategory.py	Updated route decorators for collection endpoints from @bp.route("") to @bp.route("/"), standardizing URL path registration across three blueprint-bound classes.

Estimated code review effort

🎯 1 (Trivial) | ⏱️ ~5 minutes

• Removals are straightforward deletions of isolated methods with no upstream dependencies visible.
• Route changes are minimal, single-line decorator updates following a consistent pattern across three files.
• No logic changes, branching, or conditional behavior to evaluate.

Poem

🐰 Three methods hop away to rest,
Routes now wear their slashes best,
Empty strings turn "/" bright,
API paths shine clean and tight! ✨

app/routes/product.py (1)

27-27: Consistent route standardization.

The route path update aligns with the changes in CategoryCollection and SubcategoryCollection, ensuring uniform endpoint patterns across all collection resources.

app/routes/subcategory.py (1)

29-29: Route standardization complete.

This completes the consistent route path update across all collection endpoints (Category, Product, and Subcategory), improving maintainability.

app/routes/category.py (1)

28-28: No issues found—route change is safe and consistent.

Verification confirms the change from @bp.route("") to @bp.route("/") is a safe consistency improvement. The blueprint is registered with url_prefix="/categories" at app/init.py:24, making the final endpoint /categories/. Since the app has strict_slashes = False configured at app/init.py:10, trailing slash differences are ignored—both /categories and /categories/ resolve identically. All tests use /categories without the trailing slash and pass without modification, confirming the endpoint remains fully functional.
