Release 1.3.8-beta

This release includes critical bug fixes, enhanced functionality, and improved developer experience following 1.3.7-beta.

Bug Fixes

Core Service & Controller

• Fixed hook execution - Hooks now properly support both single functions and arrays of functions (BUG: Throws error Unhandled Rejection and shuts down when try to process unsupported file #27)
• Fixed updateMany operation - Removed pagination from bulk update operations to prevent unintended behavior
• Fixed API features usage - Correctly applying filter, sort, and pagination in base controller operations
• Fixed controller template generation - Special modules (auth, email, fileUpload) now generate correctly without unnecessary imports

File Upload

• Fixed unsupported image format handling - Sharp processing now gracefully handles unsupported formats by falling back to direct file storage
• Enhanced error handling - Image processing errors are now properly caught and reported through middleware chain

Enhancements

Relation Field Handling

• Improved relation field transformation in createOne, createMany, updateOne, and updateMany operations
• Better handling of nested relation operations (connect, create, update)
• More robust data transformation before Prisma operations

Developer Experience

• Updated Node.js requirement - Now requires Node.js >= 22.09 (latest LTS recommended)
• Improved naming conventions - Added interfaces and enums to PascalCase convention documentation
• Better CLI output - Cleaner environment file path display in dev and start commands

Testing

• Added comprehensive test coverage for hook execution with arrays
• Added tests for relation field handling across all CRUD operations
• Enhanced file upload error handling tests
• Improved controller template generation tests

Version Progression
