Permission: PUBLIC

GET /api/v1/specialties/doctor-counts

List active specialties together with the number of doctors in each — optionally scoped to a city. Used by the public /specialties page to show «N پزشک» under each specialty.

Permission: PUBLIC

Query Parameters

Param	Type	Required	Description
city_id	integer	❌	Count only doctors in this city (the categories.id of the city). Omit for a global count.

Response 200

{
  "success": true,
  "data": [
    {
      "id": 2,
      "name": "داخلی عمومی",
      "slug": "...",
      "parent_id": null,
      "status": "active",
      "weight": 10,
      "number_of_doctors": 10
    }
  ]
}

• Returns all active specialties; those with no doctors have number_of_doctors: 0.
• number_of_doctors counts distinct doctors joined through doctor_specialties (and doctor_cities when city_id is given), matching the public GET /api/v1/doctors?specialty_id=&city_id= filter.

GET /api/v1/admin/specialties

List all specialties with pagination (admin view — includes inactive).

Permission: ROLE_ADMIN

Query Parameters

Param	Type	Required	Description
page	integer	❌	Default: 1
limit	integer	❌	Default: 20
search	string	❌	Matches name, slug, or the parent specialty's name (case-insensitive LIKE)
sort / order	string	❌	sort=id with order=asc|desc; otherwise ordered by weight then name

Response 200

{
  "success": true,
  "data": [
    { "id": 12, "uuid": "…", "name": "لیزر درمانی", "slug": "laser", "status": 1, "weight": 0,
      "parent_id": 3, "parent_name": "پوست و مو" }
  ],
  "meta": { "totalRecords": 50, "totalPages": 3, "currentPage": 1 }
}

• parent_name is admin-list only — the public GET /api/v1/specialties does not return it. It exists because searching by parent can return a child whose parent is not on the current page, so the client cannot resolve the name from its own list.

Bulk import / export

Full-table JSON export and strict wipe+replace import for this category live under /api/v1/admin/categories/{bundle}/{export|import} — see category-import.md.

Sorting by id

The admin list endpoint accepts sort=id&order=asc|desc to order by id (used by the admin «دسته‌بندی‌ها» page when clicking the «شناسه» column). Without sort, the default ordering (weight/name) is unchanged.
