Summary

As a contractor, I should be able to delete projects, so that I can remove inconsistent or erroneous projects.

Acceptance Criteria

GIVEN a contractor is deleting a project in the desktop app
WHEN the app hits the projects/:id endpoint with a valid DELETE request, containing the path parameter:

• :id, the unique id of the project being removed.

THEN the app should receive a status 200
AND in the response, the following information should be returned:

• header message indicating delete operation success

Sample Request/Sample Response

headers: {
    error: 0,
    message: "The specified item was deleted successfully"
}
body: {}

Resources

• Development URL: {Here goes a URL to the feature on development API}
• Production URL: {Here goes a URL to the feature on production API}

Dev Notes

Alongside the deletion of the project, all the data that comes under it is also deleted on cascade, e.g. it's milestones, rentals, orders, payments, worker logs etc.
This operation is highly dangerous and can cause irreversible loss of data so make sure to add a confirmation for it on the front end (something like github's delete repo).

Testing Notes

Scenario 1: DELETE request is successful:

1. Create a new project with a POST request to /projects endpoint.
2. With the id returned from the POST, make a DELETE request to /projects/:id endpoint.
3. A subsequent GET request to /projects/:id endpoint should return a 404 not found status code.

Scenario 2: DELETE request is forbidden:

1. Make a DELETE request to /projects/:id endpoint using a inspector account token.
2. Ensure the endpoint returns a 403 forbidden status code.
