# Task 5 Requirements Checklist

## Task: Backend: Implement PUT endpoint for updating custom status

### Requirements Coverage

#### ✅ Requirement 2.1: Support updating name

**Implementation:**
```python
# Validate name uniqueness if name is being changed
if status_update.name is not None and status_update.name != status_to_update.get('name'):
    # Check against other custom statuses
    existing_names = [
        s.get('name', '').lower() 
        for i, s in enumerate(custom_statuses_data) 
        if isinstance(s, dict) and i != status_index
    ]
    
    # Check against system statuses
    system_names = [s['name'].lower() for s in SYSTEM_TASK_STATUSES]
    
    if status_update.name.lower() in existing_names:
        raise HTTPException(status_code=409, ...)
    
    if status_update.name.lower() in system_names:
        raise HTTPException(status_code=409, ...)
    
    # Update name
    status_to_update['name'] = status_update.name
```

**Verified:**
- ✅ Name can be updated
- ✅ Name validation works
- ✅ Uniqueness check implemented
- ✅ Returns updated status

---

#### ✅ Requirement 2.2: Support updating color

**Implementation:**
```python
# Update color if provided
if status_update.color is not None:
    status_to_update['color'] = status_update.color
```

**Verified:**
- ✅ Color can be updated
- ✅ Color format validated by schema (hex codes)
- ✅ Color updates independently of other fields
- ✅ Returns updated status

---

#### ✅ Requirement 2.3: Support updating is_default flag

**Implementation:**
```python
# Handle is_default flag
if status_update.is_default is not None:
    if status_update.is_default:
        # If setting as default, unset other default statuses
        for status_data in custom_statuses_data:
            if isinstance(status_data, dict):
                status_data['is_default'] = False
        
        # Set this status as default
        status_to_update['is_default'] = True
    else:
        # Just unset this status as default
        status_to_update['is_default'] = False
```

**Verified:**
- ✅ is_default flag can be updated
- ✅ Can set status as default
- ✅ Can unset status as default
- ✅ Returns updated status

---

#### ✅ Requirement 5.2: If setting as default, unset other default statuses

**Implementation:**
```python
if status_update.is_default:
    # If setting as default, unset other default statuses
    for status_data in custom_statuses_data:
        if isinstance(status_data, dict):
            status_data['is_default'] = False
    
    # Set this status as default
    status_to_update['is_default'] = True
```

**Verified:**
- ✅ When setting a status as default, all other defaults are unset
- ✅ Only one default status exists at a time
- ✅ Default status ID is correctly returned in response
- ✅ Previous default is properly unset

---

#### ✅ Additional Requirement: Validate name uniqueness if name is changed

**Implementation:**
```python
# Validate name uniqueness if name is being changed
if status_update.name is not None and status_update.name != status_to_update.get('name'):
    # Check against other custom statuses
    existing_names = [...]
    
    # Check against system statuses
    system_names = [...]
    
    if status_update.name.lower() in existing_names:
        raise HTTPException(status_code=409, ...)
    
    if status_update.name.lower() in system_names:
        raise HTTPException(status_code=409, ...)
```

**Verified:**
- ✅ Name uniqueness validated within project
- ✅ Checks against other custom statuses
- ✅ Checks against system status names
- ✅ Returns 409 Conflict on duplicate

---

#### ✅ Additional Requirement: Use flag_modified for JSON column updates

**Implementation:**
```python
# Update the status in the list
custom_statuses_data[status_index] = status_to_update
db_project.custom_task_statuses = custom_statuses_data

# Use flag_modified for JSON column updates
flag_modified(db_project, 'custom_task_statuses')

try:
    db.commit()
    db.refresh(db_project)
except Exception as e:
    db.rollback()
    raise HTTPException(...)
```

**Verified:**
- ✅ flag_modified is used
- ✅ Changes persist to database
- ✅ JSON column updates work correctly
- ✅ Rollback on error

---
