This PR implements the complete MediaItemsController to provide REST API functionality for the library management system.

Changes:

  • Added GET /items endpoint to retrieve all media items from the library
  • Added GET /items/{id} endpoint to retrieve a specific media item by its ID
  • Added POST /items endpoint to create new media items with proper validation
  • Added DELETE /items/{id} endpoint to remove media items from the library
  • Implemented proper HTTP status code handling
  • Added error handling with structured JSON error responses
  • All endpoints follow REST conventions and handle edge cases appropriately

Testing:

  • All unit tests in MediaItemsControllerTest pass successfully
  • Manual testing with curl commands confirms all endpoints work correctly
  • Error scenarios (invalid requests, non-existent items) handled properly
  • API tested with both valid and invalid data inputs

The implementation uses the existing Library and Librarian services and integrates with the current MediaItem model structure. All endpoints are fully functional and ready for front-end integration.

- Add GET /items endpoint to retrieve all media items
- Add GET /items/{id} endpoint to retrieve single item by ID
- Add POST /items endpoint to create new media items with validation
- Add DELETE /items/{id} endpoint to remove items by ID
- Handle proper HTTP status codes (200, 201, 400, 404, 204)
- Implement error handling with structured error responses
- All endpoints tested and working correctly

Must not have lesson_19 work here.

var response = CreateMediaItemResponse.builder().item(responseItem).build();
return ResponseEntity.ok(response);
} catch (Exception e) {
var errorResponse = java.util.Map.of("errors", java.util.List.of("Invalid item data"));

Look into @ValidRequest and you'll see that you don't need this particular catch block code at all.

public ResponseEntity<?> addItem(@RequestBody CreateMediaItemRequest request) {
try {
if (request.getItem() == null) {
var errorResponse = java.util.Map.of("errors", java.util.List.of("Item is required"));
