Summary of Changes
Hello @fulleni, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!
I've refactored the data update logic within the API routes to optimize database interactions. Specifically, I've leveraged the ownershipCheckMiddleware to provide the existing user data, thereby preventing a redundant database call when performing partial updates. This change improves efficiency by ensuring that the necessary data is already available in the request context.
Highlights
- Database Optimization: The _handlePut method now retrieves the existing user object from the request context, which is populated by the ownershipCheckMiddleware, eliminating a duplicate database read.
- Code Refactoring: Streamlined the data update flow in routes/api/v1/data/[id]/index.dart by integrating with the ownershipCheckMiddleware for efficient data access.

Code Review
This pull request introduces a new ownershipCheckMiddleware to handle item ownership verification, which is a great initiative to centralize logic and improve performance by avoiding duplicate database calls. The refactoring in _handlePut correctly implements this new pattern.
However, the refactoring is incomplete. The _handleGet and _handleDelete methods still contain legacy ownership check logic, leading to unnecessary database queries that this PR aims to eliminate. My review includes a detailed comment on how to extend this refactoring to those methods to ensure consistency and fully realize the performance benefits across all relevant API endpoints.
