+## Domain Knowledge and Repository Queries
+
+Business rules like expiration checks (`expirationDate <= currentDate`) represent domain knowledge that **must have a single source of truth**. This logic might evolve (e.g., to `<= currentDate - N days` or vary by item type) and should never be duplicated across the codebase.
+
+While simple predicates (like `findWhere(predicate<bool>(Item))`) work for in-memory repositories, SQL-based repositories need to translate these rules into efficient WHERE clauses. One solution (not too over-engineered) would be to pass DTO or value object ready to be put into queries (e.g., `fetchExpiredItems(calculatedConditionFields)`).
+
+But for fun and possible UI search, consider implementing a specification pattern with a simple condition abstraction that exposes the business rule as composable conditions (field, operator, value).
+
+This allows domain services to define rules once, use cases to apply them consistently, and repositories to translate them into optimal queries by interpreting the conditions according to their storage mechanism. Avoid duplicating the business logic in repository implementations - instead, let repositories consume the specification and build their queries accordingly. This aims to overcome to-repo-and-back drawbacks depicted in *Evans, Eric (2003). Domain Driven Design. Final Manuscript*.

 Otherwise, please provide a `<impl>/README.md` file with setup and running instructions.
+
+## API Endpoints
+
+See `openapi.yaml` file for suggested API (test it with Tavern, Postman etc.).
+Here's a summary of example API endpoints:
+
+| Endpoint                | Method | Description                          |
+|-------------------------|--------|--------------------------------------|
+| `/login`                | POST   | Authenticate user and get JWT token  |
+| `/items`                | GET    | Get user's items                     |
+| `/items`                | POST   | Create new item                      |
+| `/items/{id}`           | GET    | Get item by ID                       |
+| `/items/{id}`           | PUT    | Update item details                  |
+| `/items/{id}`           | DELETE | Delete item                          |
+
+Suggested base URL is `http://localhost:50080/api/v1/`.
+
+## Testing
+
+- Each implementation should include its own **unit tests** and **integration tests**, which must run automatically during the Docker image build.
+- Implementation-independent functional tests are provided in `testing/tavern/`
+- Tavern API tests (requests and assertions) must pass for every implementation to ensure consistent behavior across all technology stacks.
+- For debugging and verifying the automatic ordering feature, use the helper service in `testing/http-echo-server/` which provides a simple Docker Compose setup that listens on port 8888 and logs all incoming POST requests, allowing you to observe when expired items trigger order notifications.

+# Ovierview
+
+Read top-level `README.md` for more information on this repository.
+
+# Authentication
+
+No external service is used. JWT tokens are created and verified using `jwt-cpp` library.
+Default, pre-defined user databse is a simple json file (`app/defaults/users.json`).
+
+# Build and Run
+
+```bash
+cd docker
+docker compose build
+docker compose up
+```
+
+Note: do not use this for development. See `.devcontainer` directory for development setup.
+
+For non-container development, see Dockerfile and replicate the steps. Simple `build-and-test.sh`
+script would look like this:
+
+```bash
+#/bin/bash
+
+OUT_DIR=./out
+DEBUG_DIR=$OUT_DIR/build/debug
+
+cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug \
+  -DCMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS=TRUE \
+  -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/opt/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake \
+  -S /workspace -B $DEBUG_DIR
+
+cd "$DEBUG_DIR"
+cmake --build . -- -j8
+ctest --output-on-failure .
+
+```
+
+# Testing
+
+Unit tests are added to ctest and executed on docker build. Execute `ctest .` in build dir to run it.
+
+Use top-level testing/tavern scripts to run functional tests.

+ * HTTP-based order service implementation with retry logic and
+ * connection pooling
+ *
+ * FLOW OVERVIEW:
+ * 1. orderItem() validates input and enqueues order request
+ * 2. Background worker thread processes queue sequentially (FIFO)
+ * 3. Failed requests are retried with exponential backoff (1s, 2s, 4s...)
+ * 4. HTTP clients are cached per host and auto-cleaned when unused
+ * 5. Service shuts down gracefully, completing queued orders
+ *
+ * IMPORTANT LIMITATIONS:
+ * - Uses single worker thread - retries of failed requests will block
+ * processing of new orders until retry delay expires
+ * - Not suitable for time-critical operations due to sequential processing
+ * - Designed for fire-and-forget order notifications, not real-time
+ * transactions

+# Specification Pattern Implementation
+
+The Specification pattern allows you to encapsulate business logic for filtering and querying data. Instead of writing SQL queries directly, you build specifications using Go code that can later be converted to SQL, used for in-memory filtering, or other purposes.
+
+## Core Components
+
+### 1. Basic Data Structures (`condition_spec.go`)
+
+#### `Condition`
+Represents a single comparison operation:
+```go
+type Condition struct {
+    Field    string      // Field name (e.g., "age", "name")
+    Operator string      // Comparison operator (e.g., "=", ">", "IN")
+    Value    interface{} // Value to compare against
+}
+```
+
+#### `LogicalGroup`
+Combines multiple conditions with logical operators:
+```go
+type LogicalGroup struct {
+    Operator   string      // "AND", "OR", or "NOT"
+    Conditions []Condition // Simple conditions
+    Spec       *Spec       // Nested specification for complex logic
+}
+```
+
+#### `Spec`
+The main specification container (can hold either a single condition or a logical group):
+```go
+type Spec struct {
+    Condition    *Condition    // For simple conditions
+    LogicalGroup *LogicalGroup // For complex logic
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Builder Functions
+
+These functions create specifications in a fluent, readable way:
+
+```go
+// Simple conditions
+userSpec := Eq("name", "John")           // name = "John"
+ageSpec := Gt("age", 18)                 // age > 18
+roleSpec := In("role", []interface{}{"admin", "moderator"}) // role IN ("admin", "moderator")
+
+// Logical combinations
+complexSpec := And(
+    Eq("status", "active"),
+    Or(
+        Gt("age", 21),
+        Eq("role", "admin"),
+    ),
+)
+```
+
+### 3. Specification Interface (`simple_specification.go`)
+
+The `Specification[T]` interface provides methods for:
+- **Evaluation**: `IsSatisfiedBy(candidate T) bool`
+- **Composition**: `And()`, `Or()`, `Not()`
+- **Introspection**: `GetConditions()`, `GetSpec()`
+
+## How It Works
+
+### 1. Building Specifications
+
+```go
+// Create a specification for active users over 18
+spec := And(
+    Eq("status", "active"),
+    Gt("age", 18),
+)
+```
+
+### 2. Evaluating Specifications
+
+The `SimpleSpecification` uses reflection to evaluate conditions against Go objects:
+
+```go
+user := &User{Name: "John", Age: 25, Status: "active"}
+specification := NewSimpleSpecification[*User](spec)
+isMatch := specification.IsSatisfiedBy(user) // true
+```
+
+### 3. Field Access
+
+The implementation looks for field values in this order:
+1. `GetFieldName()` method (e.g., `GetAge()`)
+2. `FieldName()` method (e.g., `Age()`)
+3. Exported struct field
+
+### 4. Type Comparisons
+
+The system handles different data types intelligently:
+- **Numbers**: Direct comparison with type conversion
+- **Strings**: Lexicographic comparison
+- **Time**: Special handling for `time.Time` and objects with `Time()` methods
+- **Collections**: `IN` and `NOT IN` operations
+- **Nil values**: Proper null handling
+
+## Examples
+
+### Simple Usage
+```go
+// Find all active users
+activeSpec := Eq("status", "active")
+spec := NewSimpleSpecification[*User](activeSpec)
+
+users := []User{{Status: "active"}, {Status: "inactive"}}
+for _, user := range users {
+    if spec.IsSatisfiedBy(&user) {
+        fmt.Println("Active user:", user.Name)
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### Complex Logic
+```go
+// Find admin users OR users with high scores
+complexSpec := Or(
+    Eq("role", "admin"),
+    And(
+        Gt("score", 90),
+        Eq("status", "active"),
+    ),
+)
+```
+
+### Time Comparisons
+```go
+// Find expired items
+expiredSpec := Lte("expirationDate", time.Now())
+```
+
+## Key Benefits
+
+1. **Type Safety**: Compile-time checking with generics
+2. **Readability**: Business logic expressed in readable Go code
+3. **Reusability**: Specifications can be composed and reused
+4. **Testability**: Easy to test business rules in isolation
+5. **Flexibility**: Can be converted to SQL, used for filtering, etc.
+
+## Performance Considerations
+
+- Reflection is used for field access (consider caching for high-frequency operations)
+- Complex nested specifications may impact performance
+- Time comparisons handle multiple formats but may be slower than direct comparisons
+
+## Common Patterns
+
+### Repository Integration
+```go
+type UserRepository interface {
+    FindWhere(ctx context.Context, spec Specification[*User]) ([]*User, error)
+}
+```
+
+### Business Rule Encapsulation
+```go
+func ActiveUserSpec() *Spec {
+    return And(
+        Eq("status", "active"),
+        Neq("deletedAt", nil),
+    )
+}
+```
+
+### Dynamic Query Building
+```go
+func BuildUserSearchSpec(filters UserFilters) *Spec {
+    conditions := []*Spec{}
+
+    if filters.Status != "" {
+        conditions = append(conditions, Eq("status", filters.Status))
+    }
+    if filters.MinAge > 0 {
+        conditions = append(conditions, Gte("age", filters.MinAge))
+    }
+
+    return And(conditions...)
+}
