Uploads previously wrote every file to disk with a fresh GUID name, so the
same image uploaded twice produced two identical files. Now:
- New MediaAsset table records each stored upload (SHA-256 hash, size, type,
url, kind, scope) + migration. Indexed on (CafeId, ContentHash).
- MediaStorageService computes the content hash on upload; if an identical file
already exists for that café it returns the existing URL instead of writing a
duplicate (covers images, videos, 3D models). Dedup lookup/record run via a
scoped DbContext (the service is a singleton) and never block an upload on
failure.
- GET /api/cafes/{cafeId}/media lists the café's library (newest first, optional
?kind=) so the UI can let users pick an existing file instead of re-uploading.
86 API tests pass.
Full backend implementation:
- Multi-tenant cafe/restaurant management (menus, orders, tables, staff)
- POS order flow with ZarinPal and Snappfood payment integration
- OTP authentication via Kavenegar SMS
- QR digital menu with public discover/finder endpoints
- Customer loyalty, coupons, CRM
- PostgreSQL via EF Core, Redis for caching/sessions
- Background jobs, webhook handlers
- Full migration history
