[FEATURE] Implement Personalized Book Recommendations Based on User Search History #92

Is this feature already requested?

Problem or Missing Functionality

Currently, the system lacks personalized recommendations for users based on their interests and search behavior. Without targeted suggestions, users might struggle to discover new books relevant to their preferences, reducing engagement and retention. This feature aims to address this gap by tracking user search history and providing book recommendations based on previously searched genres, thereby enhancing the user experience and promoting book discovery.

Feature Description

The Personalized Book Recommendation feature suggests books based on a user’s past searches, primarily focusing on the last-searched genre. It enhances user engagement by offering relevant recommendations and promotes book discovery. If no search history is available, the system defaults to popular books, ensuring continuous functionality with minimal changes to the existing system.

Implementation Plan

Implementation Plan

  1. Create User Search History Entity: Add a UserSearchHistory table to store user ID, searched genre, and timestamp.
  2. Implement Search Logging: Modify the search API to log each user's search with the genre and time.
  3. Update Repository Layer: Create methods in UserSearchHistoryRepository to retrieve the last-searched genre for a user.
  4. Build Recommendation Logic: Add a method in BookService to fetch books based on the user’s last-searched genre or return popular books if no history is found.
  5. Create API Endpoint:Add a new /recommendations/{userId} endpoint in BookController to serve the recommendations.
  6. Test and Verify: Use tools like Postman to test search logging and validate that appropriate recommendations are returned based on search history.
