## Technical Guidelines

### Advanced GORM Hooks

```go
// models/user.go
package models

import (
    "context"
    "time"

    "golang.org/x/crypto/bcrypt"
    "gorm.io/gorm"
)

type User struct {
    ID        uint           `gorm:"primarykey"`
    Username  string         `gorm:"uniqueIndex;not null;size:50"`
    Email     string         `gorm:"uniqueIndex;not null;size:100"`
    Password  string         `gorm:"not null;size:255"`
    Version   int            `gorm:"not null;default:0"` // Optimistic locking
    LoginCount int           `gorm:"not null;default:0"`
    LastLoginAt *time.Time   `gorm:"index"`
    CreatedAt time.Time
    UpdatedAt time.Time
    DeletedAt gorm.DeletedAt `gorm:"index"`
}

// BeforeCreate hook - hash password before creating user
func (u *User) BeforeCreate(tx *gorm.DB) error {
    if u.Password != "" {
        hashedPassword, err := bcrypt.GenerateFromPassword([]byte(u.Password), bcrypt.DefaultCost)
        if err != nil {
            return err
        }
        u.Password = string(hashedPassword)
    }
    return nil
}

// BeforeUpdate hook - increment version for optimistic locking
func (u *User) BeforeUpdate(tx *gorm.DB) error {
    if tx.Statement.Changed() {
        tx.Statement.SetColumn("version", gorm.Expr("version + 1"))
    }
    return nil
}

// AfterFind hook - log access
func (u *User) AfterFind(tx *gorm.DB) error {
    // Can log access, decrypt sensitive data, etc.
    return nil
}

// AfterDelete hook - cleanup related data
func (u *User) AfterDelete(tx *gorm.DB) error {
    // Cleanup sessions, tokens, etc.
    return tx.Where("user_id = ?", u.ID).Delete(&Session{}).Error
}

// Audit trail with hooks
type AuditLog struct {
    ID        uint      `gorm:"primarykey"`
    TableName string    `gorm:"size:50;not null;index"`
    RecordID  uint      `gorm:"not null;index"`
    Action    string    `gorm:"size:20;not null"` // INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE
    UserID    uint      `gorm:"index"`
    OldData   string    `gorm:"type:jsonb"`
    NewData   string    `gorm:"type:jsonb"`
    CreatedAt time.Time
}

func CreateAuditLog(tx *gorm.DB, tableName string, recordID uint, action string, oldData, newData interface{}) error {
    // Implementation to create audit log
    return nil
}
```

### GORM Scopes for Reusable Queries

```go
// models/scopes.go
package models

import (
    "time"
    "gorm.io/gorm"
)

// Scope for active records
func Active(db *gorm.DB) *gorm.DB {
    return db.Where("is_active = ?", true)
}

// Scope for records created in date range
func CreatedBetween(start, end time.Time) func(*gorm.DB) *gorm.DB {
    return func(db *gorm.DB) *gorm.DB {
        return db.Where("created_at BETWEEN ? AND ?", start, end)
    }
}

// Scope for pagination
func Paginate(page, pageSize int) func(*gorm.DB) *gorm.DB {
    return func(db *gorm.DB) *gorm.DB {
        offset := (page - 1) * pageSize
        return db.Offset(offset).Limit(pageSize)
    }
}

// Scope for sorting
func OrderBy(field, direction string) func(*gorm.DB) *gorm.DB {
    return func(db *gorm.DB) *gorm.DB {
        return db.Order(field + " " + direction)
    }
}

// Scope for eager loading with conditions
func WithOrders(status string) func(*gorm.DB) *gorm.DB {
    return func(db *gorm.DB) *gorm.DB {
        return db.Preload("Orders", "status = ?", status)
    }
}

// Usage
func (r *userRepository) FindActiveUsers(ctx context.Context, page, pageSize int) ([]*User, error) {
    var users []*User
    err := r.db.WithContext(ctx).
        Scopes(Active, Paginate(page, pageSize), OrderBy("created_at", "DESC")).
        Find(&users).Error
    return users, err
}
```

### Custom Data Types

```go
// models/custom_types.go
package models

import (
    "database/sql/driver"
    "encoding/json"
    "errors"
)

// Custom JSON type
type JSONB map[string]interface{}

func (j JSONB) Value() (driver.Value, error) {
    if j == nil {
        return nil, nil
    }
    return json.Marshal(j)
}

func (j *JSONB) Scan(value interface{}) error {
    if value == nil {
        *j = make(map[string]interface{})
        return nil
    }

    bytes, ok := value.([]byte)
    if !ok {
        return errors.New("failed to unmarshal JSONB value")
    }

    return json.Unmarshal(bytes, j)
}

// Encrypted string type
type EncryptedString string

func (es EncryptedString) Value() (driver.Value, error) {
    if es == "" {
        return nil, nil
    }
    // Encrypt the value before storing
    encrypted, err := encrypt(string(es))
    return encrypted, err
}

func (es *EncryptedString) Scan(value interface{}) error {
    if value == nil {
        *es = ""
        return nil
    }

    bytes, ok := value.([]byte)
    if !ok {
        return errors.New("failed to scan encrypted string")
    }

    // Decrypt the value after reading
    decrypted, err := decrypt(string(bytes))
    if err != nil {
        return err
    }

    *es = EncryptedString(decrypted)
    return nil
}

// Usage in model
type User struct {
    ID        uint            `gorm:"primarykey"`
    Username  string          `gorm:"uniqueIndex"`
    Metadata  JSONB           `gorm:"type:jsonb"`
    SSN       EncryptedString `gorm:"type:text"`
}
```

### Advanced Transaction Management

```go
// repositories/transaction_manager.go
package repositories

import (
    "context"
    "fmt"

    "gorm.io/gorm"
)

type TransactionManager struct {
    db *gorm.DB
}

func NewTransactionManager(db *gorm.DB) *TransactionManager {
    return &TransactionManager{db: db}
}

// Execute multiple operations in a transaction
func (tm *TransactionManager) WithTransaction(ctx context.Context, fn func(*gorm.DB) error) error {
    return tm.db.WithContext(ctx).Transaction(func(tx *gorm.DB) error {
        return fn(tx)
    })
}

// Nested transaction with savepoint
func (tm *TransactionManager) WithSavePoint(ctx context.Context, fn func(*gorm.DB) error) error {
    return tm.db.WithContext(ctx).Transaction(func(tx *gorm.DB) error {
        // Create savepoint
        sp := fmt.Sprintf("sp_%d", time.Now().UnixNano())
        if err := tx.Exec("SAVEPOINT " + sp).Error; err != nil {
            return err
        }

        // Execute function
        if err := fn(tx); err != nil {
            // Rollback to savepoint on error
            tx.Exec("ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT " + sp)
            return err
        }

        // Release savepoint on success
        return tx.Exec("RELEASE SAVEPOINT " + sp).Error
    })
}

// Example: Complex order creation with transaction
type OrderService struct {
    orderRepo    OrderRepository
    inventoryRepo InventoryRepository
    paymentRepo  PaymentRepository
    txManager    *TransactionManager
}

func (s *OrderService) CreateOrder(ctx context.Context, req *CreateOrderRequest) (*Order, error) {
    var order *Order

    err := s.txManager.WithTransaction(ctx, func(tx *gorm.DB) error {
        // 1. Create order
        order = &Order{
            CustomerID:  req.CustomerID,
            TotalAmount: req.TotalAmount,
            Status:      "pending",
        }
        if err := tx.Create(order).Error; err != nil {
            return fmt.Errorf("failed to create order: %w", err)
        }

        // 2. Reserve inventory
        for _, item := range req.Items {
            if err := s.inventoryRepo.Reserve(tx, item.ProductID, item.Quantity); err != nil {
                return fmt.Errorf("failed to reserve inventory: %w", err)
            }
        }

        // 3. Process payment
        payment := &Payment{
            OrderID: order.ID,
            Amount:  req.TotalAmount,
            Status:  "processing",
        }
        if err := tx.Create(payment).Error; err != nil {
            return fmt.Errorf("failed to create payment: %w", err)
        }

        // 4. Update order status
        order.Status = "confirmed"
        if err := tx.Save(order).Error; err != nil {
            return fmt.Errorf("failed to update order: %w", err)
        }

        return nil
    })

    if err != nil {
        return nil, err
    }

    return order, nil
}
```

### Advanced Queries with Subqueries

```go
// repositories/analytics_repository.go
package repositories

import (
    "context"
    "time"

    "gorm.io/gorm"
)

type AnalyticsRepository struct {

        Select("customer_id, SUM(total_amount) as total_spent, COUNT(*) as order_count").
        Group("customer_id").
        Having("SUM(total_amount) > ?", 1000)

    // Main query joining with customers table
    err := r.db.WithContext(ctx).
        Table("(?) as order_stats", subQuery).
        Select("customers.*, order_stats.total_spent, order_stats.order_count").
        Joins("JOIN customers ON customers.id = order_stats.customer_id").
        Order("order_stats.total_spent DESC").
        Limit(limit).
        Find(&stats).Error

    return stats, err
}

// CTE (Common Table Expression) with raw SQL
func (r *AnalyticsRepository) GetRevenueByMonth(ctx context.Context, year int) ([]MonthlyRevenue, error) {
    var results []MonthlyRevenue

    query := `
        WITH monthly_stats AS (
            SELECT
                DATE_TRUNC('month', order_date) as month,
                SUM(total_amount) as revenue,
                COUNT(*) as order_count
            FROM orders
            WHERE EXTRACT(YEAR FROM order_date) = ?
            GROUP BY DATE_TRUNC('month', order_date)
        )
        SELECT
            month,

    `

    err := r.db.WithContext(ctx).Raw(query, year).Scan(&results).Error
    return results, err

    err := r.db.WithContext(ctx).Raw(query).Scan(&rankings).Error
    return rankings, err
}
```

### Batch Operations

```go
// repositories/batch_repository.go
package repositories

import (
    "context"

    "gorm.io/gorm"
    "gorm.io/gorm/clause"
)

type BatchRepository struct {
    db *gorm.DB
}

// Batch insert with optimal performance
func (r *BatchRepository) BatchCreate(ctx context.Context, records interface{}, batchSize int) error {
    return r.db.WithContext(ctx).CreateInBatches(records, batchSize).Error
}

// Batch upsert (insert or update on conflict)
func (r *BatchRepository) BatchUpsert(ctx context.Context, records []*Product) error {
    return r.db.WithContext(ctx).Clauses(clause.OnConflict{
        Columns:   []clause.Column{{Name: "id"}},
        DoUpdates: clause.AssignmentColumns([]string{"name", "price", "stock", "updated_at"}),
    }).Create(records).Error
}

// Batch update with map

}

// Batch delete
func (r *BatchRepository) BatchDelete(ctx context.Context, ids []uint) error {
    return r.db.WithContext(ctx).
        Where("id IN ?", ids).
        Delete(&Product{}).Error
}

// Efficient bulk insert with prepared statements
func (r *BatchRepository) BulkInsertOptimized(ctx context.Context, products []*Product) error {
    const batchSize = 1000

    return r.db.WithContext(ctx).Transaction(func(tx *gorm.DB) error {
        for i := 0; i < len(products); i += batchSize {
            end := i + batchSize
            if end > len(products) {
                end = len(products)
            }

            batch := products[i:end]
            if err := tx.Create(batch).Error; err != nil {
                return err
            }
        }
        return nil
    })
}
```

### Performance Optimization with Caching

```go
// repositories/cached_repository.go
package repositories

import (
    "context"
    "fmt"
    "time"

    "github.com/redis/go-redis/v9"
    "gorm.io/gorm"
)

type CachedProductRepository struct {
    db    *gorm.DB
    cache *redis.Client
}

func NewCachedProductRepository(db *gorm.DB, cache *redis.Client) *CachedProductRepository {
    return &CachedProductRepository{
        db:    db,
        cache: cache,
    }
}

// Find with cache
func (r *CachedProductRepository) FindByID(ctx context.Context, id uint) (*Product, error) {
    cacheKey := fmt.Sprintf("product:%d", id)

    // Try cache first
    var product Product
    cached, err := r.cache.Get(ctx, cacheKey).Bytes()
    if err == nil {
        if err := json.Unmarshal(cached, &product); err == nil {
            return &product, nil
        }
    }

    // Cache miss, fetch from database
    if err := r.db.WithContext(ctx).First(&product, id).Error; err != nil {
        return nil, err
    }

    // Store in cache
    data, _ := json.Marshal(product)
    r.cache.Set(ctx, cacheKey, data, 1*time.Hour)

    return &product, nil
}

// Invalidate cache on update
func (r *CachedProductRepository) Update(ctx context.Context, product *Product) error {
    if err := r.db.WithContext(ctx).Save(product).Error; err != nil {
        return err
    }

    // Invalidate cache
    cacheKey := fmt.Sprintf("product:%d", product.ID)
    r.cache.Del(ctx, cacheKey)

    return nil
}

// Cache warming strategy
func (r *CachedProductRepository) WarmCache(ctx context.Context, ids []uint) error {
    var products []Product
    if err := r.db.WithContext(ctx).Where("id IN ?", ids).Find(&products).Error; err != nil {
        return err
    }

    pipe := r.cache.Pipeline()
    for _, product := range products {

        data, _ := json.Marshal(product)
        pipe.Set(ctx, cacheKey, data, 1*time.Hour)
    }
    _, err := pipe.Exec(ctx)
    return err
}
```

### Query Optimization with Indexes

```go
// models/optimized_models.go
package models

type OptimizedProduct struct {
    ID          uint      `gorm:"primarykey"`
    Name        string    `gorm:"size:200;index:idx_name_category,priority:1"`
    CategoryID  uint      `gorm:"index:idx_name_category,priority:2;index:idx_category_price,priority:1"`
    Price       float64   `gorm:"type:decimal(10,2);index:idx_category_price,priority:2;index:idx_price_stock,priority:1"`
    Stock       int       `gorm:"index:idx_price_stock,priority:2"`
    IsActive    bool      `gorm:"index:idx_active_created"`
    ViewCount   int       `gorm:"default:0"`
    SearchVector string   `gorm:"type:tsvector;index:,type:gin"` // PostgreSQL full-text search
    CreatedAt   time.Time `gorm:"index:idx_active_created"`
}

// Custom index with expression (PostgreSQL)
func (OptimizedProduct) TableName() string {
    return "products"
}

// Migration with custom indexes
func MigrateOptimizedProduct(db *gorm.DB) error {
    if err := db.AutoMigrate(&OptimizedProduct{}); err != nil {
        return err
    }

    // Create GIN index for full-text search
    db.Exec(`
        CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_products_search_vector
        ON products USING gin(search_vector)
    `)

    // Create partial index for active products
    db.Exec(`
        CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_products_active_partial
        ON products(category_id, price)
        WHERE is_active = true
    `)

    // Create expression index
    db.Exec(`
        CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_products_lower_name
        ON products(LOWER(name))
    `)

    return nil
}
```

### Connection Pool Optimization

```go
// database/pool.go
package database

import (
    "database/sql"
    "time"

    "gorm.io/gorm"
)

type PoolConfig struct {
    MaxIdleConns    int
    MaxOpenConns    int
    ConnMaxLifetime time.Duration
    ConnMaxIdleTime time.Duration
}

func ConfigureConnectionPool(db *gorm.DB, config PoolConfig) error {
    sqlDB, err := db.DB()
    if err != nil {
        return err
    }

    // Maximum number of idle connections
    sqlDB.SetMaxIdleConns(config.MaxIdleConns)

    // Maximum number of open connections
    sqlDB.SetMaxOpenConns(config.MaxOpenConns)

    // Maximum time a connection can be reused
    sqlDB.SetConnMaxLifetime(config.ConnMaxLifetime)

    // Maximum time a connection can be idle
    sqlDB.SetConnMaxIdleTime(config.ConnMaxIdleTime)

    return nil
}

// Monitoring connection pool stats
func GetPoolStats(db *gorm.DB) sql.DBStats {
    sqlDB, _ := db.DB()
    return sqlDB.Stats()
}

// Health check
func CheckHealth(db *gorm.DB) error {
    sqlDB, err := db.DB()
    if err != nil {
        return err
    }

    ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 2*time.Second)
    defer cancel()

    return sqlDB.PingContext(ctx)
}
```

- ✅ **Performance**: N+1 queries prevented, proper indexing
- ✅ **Caching**: Multi-level caching implemented where appropriate
- ✅ **Transactions**: Proper transaction boundaries and isolation
- ✅ **Hooks**: GORM hooks used for audit, encryption, validation
- ✅ **Scopes**: Reusable query scopes for common patterns
- ✅ **Batch Operations**: Efficient bulk operations
- ✅ **Connection Pool**: Optimized pool configuration
- ✅ **Query Optimization**: Indexes, prepared statements
- ✅ **Error Handling**: Comprehensive error handling
- ✅ **Testing**: Benchmarks for query performance
- ✅ **Monitoring**: Database metrics and slow query logging
- ✅ **Documentation**: Query optimization decisions documented

## Notes

- Use hooks for cross-cutting concerns (audit, validation)
- Implement scopes for reusable query patterns
