}

func updateHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    var payload struct {  Status string `json:"status"` }
    
    err := shelf.ReadJSON(r, &payload) // Read JSON
    if err != nil {
        // Handle error, for example:
        http.Error(w, err.Error(), http.StatusBadRequest)
        return
    }

    // Process the payload...
    shelf.WriteJSON(w, http.StatusOK, map[string]string{"status": "updated"}, nil)
