Addon/Feature System Development Guide

Version: 1.0 Purpose: Enforce consistent patterns when creating new features/addons with proper feature gates

🎯 Quick Reference

When adding a new feature/addon to the platform, you MUST:

• ✅ Define a unique FEATURE_CODE
• ✅ Create feature file in

  src/lib/features/

• ✅ Create custom hook (

  useXyzFeature

  )
• ✅ Create Feature Gates (User + Admin)
• ✅ Use theme system for upgrade prompts
• ✅ Register feature in database

📚 Architecture Overview

Feature System Flow:
1. Database (feature_definitions) → Feature Code
2. Studio Subscription/Addon → Active Features
3. FeatureProvider → Context with hasFeature(), canUse()
4. Feature Gates → Conditional Rendering
5. Components → Protected Features

🔧 Step-by-Step: Creating a New Addon

Step 1: Define Feature Code

// src/lib/features/my-feature.tsx
'use client'

export const MY_FEATURE_CODE = 'my_feature_name'

Naming Convention:

• Use snake_case:

  chat_messaging

  ,

  studio_blog

  ,

  checkin_system

• Be descriptive:

  video_on_demand

  not

  vod

• Must match database entry in

  feature_definitions.code

Step 2: Create Custom Hook

// src/lib/features/my-feature.tsx
import { useFeatures } from './feature-context'

export function useMyFeature() {
  const { hasFeature, canUse, loading } = useFeatures()

  return {
    // Ist das Feature aktiviert?
    isMyFeatureEnabled: hasFeature(MY_FEATURE_CODE),

    // Kann Feature genutzt werden? (Aktiv + Subscription gültig)
    canUseMyFeature: canUse(MY_FEATURE_CODE),

    // Lädt noch?
    loading: loading,

    // Feature Code für andere Components
    featureCode: MY_FEATURE_CODE
  }
}

What the hook returns:

• isMyFeatureEnabled

  : Feature exists in studio's active features

• canUseMyFeature

  : Feature exists AND subscription is active

• loading

  : True während features geladen werden

• featureCode

  : Der Feature-Code für generic components

Step 3: Create Feature Gates

A) Simple Feature Gate (für User/Frontend)

// src/lib/features/my-feature.tsx
import React from 'react'

export function MyFeatureGate({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) {
  const { canUseMyFeature, loading } = useMyFeature()

  // Während Laden: nichts anzeigen
  if (loading) return null

  // Feature nicht aktiv: nichts anzeigen
  if (!canUseMyFeature) return null

  return <>{children}</>
}

B) Admin Feature Gate (mit Upgrade-Hinweis)

// src/lib/features/my-feature.tsx
import { activeTheme } from '@/config/theme'
import { H3 } from '@/components/ui/Typography'

export function AdminMyFeatureGate({
  children,
  fallback
}: {
  children: React.ReactNode
  fallback?: React.ReactNode
}) {
  const { isMyFeatureEnabled, loading } = useMyFeature()

  // Während Laden: Render children (Page hat eigene Loading-States)
  if (loading) {
    return <>{children}</>
  }

  // Custom Fallback?
  if (!isMyFeatureEnabled && fallback) {
    return <>{fallback}</>
  }

  // Feature nicht aktiv: Upgrade-Hinweis
  if (!isMyFeatureEnabled) {
    return (
      <div className="p-8 text-center">
        <div className="max-w-md mx-auto">
          <svg
            className="w-16 h-16 text-[rgb(23,23,23)] mx-auto mb-4"
            fill="none"
            stroke="currentColor"
            viewBox="0 0 24 24"
          >
            <path
              strokeLinecap="round"
              strokeLinejoin="round"
              strokeWidth={1.5}
              d="M12 15v2m-6 4h12a2 2 0 002-2v-6a2 2 0 00-2-2H6a2 2 0 00-2 2v6a2 2 0 002 2zm10-10V7a4 4 0 00-8 0v4h8z"
            />
          </svg>
          <H3 className="mb-2">
            My Feature nicht aktiviert
          </H3>
          <p className="text-[rgb(23,23,23)] mb-4">
            Dieses Feature ist in Ihrem aktuellen Tarif nicht enthalten.
          </p>
          <a
            href="/admin/einstellungen/tarife"
            className={\`inline-flex items-center px-4 py-2 bg-gradient-to-r \${activeTheme.gradient} text-white rounded-lg hover:opacity-90 transition-all\`}
          >
            Tarif upgraden
          </a>
        </div>
      </div>
    )
  }

  return <>{children}</>
}

Step 4: Use in Components

Option A: With Custom Feature Gate

// In your component
import { MyFeatureGate } from '@/lib/features/my-feature'

export default function MyPage() {
  return (
    <MyFeatureGate>
      {/* This only renders if feature is active */}
      <div>Feature Content</div>
    </MyFeatureGate>
  )
}

Option B: With Generic FeatureGate

import { FeatureGate } from '@/components/features/FeatureGate'

export default function MyPage() {
  return (
    <FeatureGate feature="my_feature_name">
      <div>Feature Content</div>
    </FeatureGate>
  )
}

Option C: Conditional Rendering with Hook

import { useMyFeature } from '@/lib/features/my-feature'

export default function MyComponent() {
  const { canUseMyFeature, loading } = useMyFeature()

  if (loading) return <LoadingSpinner />
  if (!canUseMyFeature) return null

  return <div>Feature Content</div>
}

Step 5: Stripe Product erstellen

WICHTIG: Jedes Addon braucht ein Stripe Product, damit bei Studio-Erstellung keine neuen Produkte erstellt werden!

A) Stripe Product anlegen

// Via Node.js Script oder Stripe Dashboard
require('dotenv').config({ path: '.env.local' });
const Stripe = require('stripe');
const stripe = new Stripe(process.env.STRIPE_SECRET_KEY);

const product = await stripe.products.create({
  name: 'Bookicorn My Feature Name',  // Prefix "Bookicorn " für Konsistenz
  metadata: {
    feature_code: 'my_feature_name',  // Muss mit DB code übereinstimmen!
    type: 'addon'
  }
});

console.log('Product ID:', product.id);  // z.B. prod_TnXXXXXXXXXX

Oder via Stripe Dashboard:

1. Dashboard → Products → Add Product
2. Name:

   Bookicorn [Feature Name]

3. Metadata hinzufügen:

   feature_code

   =

   my_feature_name

   ,

   type

   =

   addon

Step 6: Database Setup

A) Register Feature Definition (mit Stripe Product ID!)

INSERT INTO feature_definitions (
  code,
  name,
  description,
  category,
  addon_price_monthly,
  addon_price_yearly,
  is_active,
  metadata
) VALUES (
  'my_feature_name',          -- Must match FEATURE_CODE
  'My Feature Name',
  'Description of what this feature does',
  'content',                   -- Category: core, content, marketing, etc.
  9.99,                        -- Monthly price (if sold as addon)
  99.99,                       -- Yearly price
  true,
  '{"status": "available", "stripe_product_id": "prod_TnXXXXXXXXXX"}'::jsonb
  --                          ↑ WICHTIG: Stripe Product ID hier eintragen!
);

Alternative: Bestehendes Feature updaten

UPDATE feature_definitions
SET metadata = metadata || '{"stripe_product_id": "prod_TnXXXXXXXXXX"}'::jsonb
WHERE code = 'my_feature_name';

B) Add to Subscription Plan (Optional)

-- Include feature in a plan
UPDATE subscription_plans
SET included_features = included_features || ARRAY['my_feature_name']
WHERE code = 'professional';

C) Or Create as Addon

-- Studio can buy as addon
INSERT INTO studio_feature_addons (
  studio_id,
  feature_id,
  status,
  billing_cycle,
  price_override
) VALUES (
  'studio-uuid',
  (SELECT id FROM feature_definitions WHERE code = 'my_feature_name'),
  'active',
  'monthly',
  NULL
);

👤 Member Dashboard Feature Gates

WICHTIG: Das Member Dashboard hat ein SEPARATES Feature System (

MemberFeatureContext

• Ein Kunde kann bei MEHREREN Studios Mitglied sein
• Features werden über ALLE Studios aggregiert
• Feature ist aktiv wenn MINDESTENS EIN Studio es hat

MemberFeatureContext vs FeatureContext

FeatureProvider

MemberFeatureProvider

useFeatures()

useMemberFeatures()

Member Feature Hook erstellen

// src/lib/features/member-feature-context.tsx enthält:

// 1. Feature Codes Definition
export const MEMBER_FEATURE_CODES = {
  CHAT: 'chat_messaging',
  CHECKIN: 'checkin_system',
  // Neues Feature hier hinzufügen
  MY_FEATURE: 'my_feature_code',
} as const

// 2. Convenience Hooks existieren bereits:
export function useMemberChatFeature() { ... }
export function useMemberCheckinFeature() { ... }

// 3. Neuen Convenience Hook hinzufügen:
export function useMemberMyFeature() {
  const { hasFeature, hasFeatureInStudio, getStudiosWithFeature, loading } = useMemberFeatures()
  const featureCode = MEMBER_FEATURE_CODES.MY_FEATURE

  return {
    isMyFeatureEnabled: hasFeature(featureCode),
    hasMyFeatureInStudio: (studioId: string) => hasFeatureInStudio(featureCode, studioId),
    studiosWithMyFeature: getStudiosWithFeature(featureCode),
    loading,
    featureCode
  }
}

Member Feature Gate erstellen

// In member-feature-context.tsx oder eigene Datei

export function MemberMyFeatureGate({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) {
  return (
    <MemberFeatureGate feature={MEMBER_FEATURE_CODES.MY_FEATURE} silent>
      {children}
    </MemberFeatureGate>
  )
}

Verwendung im Member Dashboard

// src/app/dashboard/page.tsx oder Member-Komponenten

import { useMemberMyFeature, MEMBER_FEATURE_CODES } from '@/lib/features/member-feature-context'

export default function MemberDashboard() {
  // Option A: Mit spezifischem Hook
  const { isMyFeatureEnabled } = useMemberMyFeature()

  // Option B: Mit generischem Hook
  const { hasFeature } = useMemberFeatures()
  const hasMyFeature = hasFeature(MEMBER_FEATURE_CODES.MY_FEATURE)

  // Option C: Prüfen für spezifisches Studio
  const { hasFeatureInStudio } = useMemberFeatures()
  const studioHasFeature = hasFeatureInStudio('my_feature_code', studioId)

  return (
    <>
      {/* Bedingt rendern */}
      {isMyFeatureEnabled && (
        <MyFeatureSection />
      )}

      {/* Oder mit Gate Component */}
      <MemberMyFeatureGate>
        <MyFeatureSection />
      </MemberMyFeatureGate>
    </>
  )
}

Navigation Items bedingt anzeigen

// src/components/member/shared/MemberNavigation.tsx

export function MemberSidebar({ ... }: MemberNavigationProps) {
  // Feature von Props oder aus Context
  const hasChatAddon = props.hasChatAddon // Vom Dashboard durchgereicht

  return (
    <nav>
      {/* Immer sichtbare Items */}
      <NavItem icon={Home} label="Home" ... />
      <NavItem icon={Calendar} label="Kursplan" ... />

      {/* Bedingt sichtbar basierend auf Feature */}
      {hasChatAddon && (
        <NavItem icon={MessageSquare} label="Nachrichten" ... />
      )}
    </nav>
  )
}

Wichtig: Studios mit MemberFeatureContext synchronisieren

// src/components/member/hooks/useMemberData.ts

export function useMemberData({ userId }: UseMemberDataProps) {
  // Context für Feature Sync holen
  const { setStudios } = useMemberFeatures()

  const loadDashboardData = async () => {
    // ... Studios laden ...

    const allStudios = Array.from(allStudiosMap.values())
    setMyStudios(allStudios)

    // WICHTIG: Studios mit MemberFeatureContext synchronisieren
    setStudios(allStudios.map((s: any) => ({ id: s.id, name: s.name })))
  }
}

🎨 Complete Example: Video-on-Demand Feature

// src/lib/features/vod-feature.tsx
'use client'
import React from 'react'
import { useFeatures } from './feature-context'
import { activeTheme } from '@/config/theme'
import { H3 } from '@/components/ui/Typography'

// 1. Define Feature Code
export const VOD_FEATURE_CODE = 'video_on_demand'

// 2. Custom Hook
export function useVodFeature() {
  const { hasFeature, canUse, loading } = useFeatures()

  return {
    isVodEnabled: hasFeature(VOD_FEATURE_CODE),
    canUseVod: canUse(VOD_FEATURE_CODE),
    loading: loading,
    featureCode: VOD_FEATURE_CODE
  }
}

// 3. User Feature Gate (simple)
export function VodFeatureGate({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) {
  const { canUseVod, loading } = useVodFeature()

  if (loading) return null
  if (!canUseVod) return null

  return <>{children}</>
}

// 4. Admin Feature Gate (with upgrade prompt)
export function AdminVodGate({
  children,
  fallback
}: {
  children: React.ReactNode
  fallback?: React.ReactNode
}) {
  const { isVodEnabled, loading } = useVodFeature()

  if (loading) {
    return <>{children}</>
  }

  if (!isVodEnabled && fallback) {
    return <>{fallback}</>
  }

  if (!isVodEnabled) {
    return (
      <div className="p-8 text-center">
        <div className="max-w-md mx-auto">
          <svg
            className="w-16 h-16 text-[rgb(23,23,23)] mx-auto mb-4"
            fill="none"
            stroke="currentColor"

          <p className="text-[rgb(23,23,23)] mb-4">
            Das VOD Feature ist in Ihrem aktuellen Tarif nicht enthalten.
          </p>
          <a
            href="/admin/einstellungen/tarife"
            className={\`inline-flex items-center px-4 py-2 bg-gradient-to-r \${activeTheme.gradient} text-white rounded-lg hover:opacity-90 transition-all\`}
          >
            Tarif upgraden
          </a>
        </div>
      </div>
    )
  }

  return <>{children}</>
}

Usage in Component:

// app/admin/videos/page.tsx
import { AdminVodGate } from '@/lib/features/vod-feature'

export default function VideosPage() {
  return (
    <AdminVodGate>
      <div>
        {/* VOD Content here */}
      </div>
    </AdminVodGate>
  )
}

🚨 Common Mistakes to Avoid

❌ WRONG: Hardcoded Colors

<div className="bg-blue-500">...</div>

✅ RIGHT: Use Theme

<div className={\`bg-gradient-to-r \${activeTheme.gradient}\`}>...</div>

❌ WRONG: No Loading State

export function MyFeatureGate({ children }) {
  const { canUseMyFeature } = useMyFeature()  // Missing loading!
  if (!canUseMyFeature) return null
  return <>{children}</>
}

✅ RIGHT: Handle Loading

export function MyFeatureGate({ children }) {
  const { canUseMyFeature, loading } = useMyFeature()
  if (loading) return null  // ← Important!
  if (!canUseMyFeature) return null
  return <>{children}</>
}

❌ WRONG: Feature Code Mismatch

// File: chat-feature.tsx
export const CHAT_FEATURE_CODE = 'messaging'  // ❌

// Database: feature_definitions.code = 'chat_messaging'  // ❌ Doesn't match!

✅ RIGHT: Matching Codes

// File: chat-feature.tsx
export const CHAT_FEATURE_CODE = 'chat_messaging'  // ✅

// Database: feature_definitions.code = 'chat_messaging'  // ✅ Matches!
