Aniworld Web Application Development Instructions

This document provides detailed tasks for AI agents to implement a modern web application for the Aniworld anime download manager. All tasks should follow the coding guidelines specified in the project's copilot instructions.

Project Overview

The goal is to create a FastAPI-based web application that provides a modern interface for the existing Aniworld anime download functionality. The core anime logic should remain in SeriesApp.py while the web layer provides REST API endpoints and a responsive UI.

Architecture Principles

• Single Responsibility: Each file/class has one clear purpose
• Dependency Injection: Use FastAPI's dependency system
• Clean Separation: Web layer calls core logic, never the reverse
• File Size Limit: Maximum 500 lines per file
• Type Hints: Use comprehensive type annotations
• Error Handling: Proper exception handling and logging

Additional Implementation Guidelines

Code Style and Standards

• Type Hints: Use comprehensive type annotations throughout all modules
• Docstrings: Follow PEP 257 for function and class documentation
• Error Handling: Implement custom exception classes with meaningful messages
• Logging: Use structured logging with appropriate log levels
• Security: Validate all inputs and sanitize outputs
• Performance: Use async/await patterns for I/O operations

📞 Escalation

If you encounter:

• Architecture issues requiring design decisions
• Tests that conflict with documented requirements
• Breaking changes needed
• Unclear requirements or expectations

Document the issue and escalate rather than guessing.

  • Fixed assertion in tests/unit/test_database_init.py
  • All database schema tests now passing
