Step 1: Update snippet services to the current format (MVP)

Service snippets are quite old and haven't been refactored for a while. We should:

• Move the services to their own snippet namespace (aka Snippets::CreateService).
• They should inherit from app/services/base_service.rb and return the proper objects.
• We should create the missing service for deleting snippets. At the moment, when we delete a snippet we directly call snippet.destroy. We should perform this action through a service object instead, like Snippets::DestroyService.
  • We should update the following locations where we perform that action:
    • app/controllers/projects/snippets_controller.rb
    • app/controllers/snippets_controller.rb
    • app/graphql/mutations/snippets/destroy.rb

Once we update these services, we will have to update also those places where we use them like in the controllers, api and graphql endpoints.
