Annotation-based REST APIs
Example
use web\rest\{Get, Post, Resource, Response}; #[Resource('/users')] class Users { #[Get('/')] public function listUsers($max= 10) { // $max comes from request parameter "max", defaulting to 10 // ... } #[Get('/{id}')] public function findUser($id) { // $id is extracted from URL segment // ... } #[Post('/')] public function createUser($user) { // $user is deserialized from the request body according to its content type // ... return Response::created('/users/{id}', $id)->entity($created); } }
Wire it together in a web application:
use web\Application; class Service extends Application { /** @return [:var] */ public function routes() { return ['/users' => new RestApi(new Users())]; } }
Run it using:
$ xp -supervise web Service @xp.web.Serve(HTTP @ peer.ServerSocket(resource(type= Socket, id= 88) -> tcp://127.0.0.1:8080)) # ...
Then call curl -i localhost:8080/users/1549
.
Parameter sources
Method parameters are automatically extracted from URI segments if their name matches the path segment in the curly braces. For requests without bodies (GET, HEAD, DELETE, OPTIONS), the value is extracted from request parameters. For requests with bodies (POST, PUT and PATCH), the body is deserialized and passed.
To supply the source explicitely, you can use parameter attributes:
#[Param]
will fetch the parameter from the request parameter named "max".#[Param('maximum')]
will fetch the parameter from the request parameter named "maximum".#[Value]
will use a request value (which was previously passed e.g. inside a filter viapass()
) for the parameter#[Header('Content-Type')]
will use the Content-Type header as value for the parameter#[Entity]
will deserialize the request body and pass its value to the parameter#[Body]
will pass the request body as a string#[Stream]
will pass anio.streams.InputStream
instance to stream the request body to the parameter#[Request]
will pass the completeweb.Request
object
Parameter conversions
Parameters can be converted from their input. This library comes with a built-in conversion named SeparatedBy:
use web\rest\{Resource, Get, Param, SeparatedBy}; #[Resource('/api/trainings')] class Trainings { #[Get('/completed')] public function completed(#[Param, SeparatedBy(',')] array $orgunits) { return $this->repository->find(['status' => 'COMPLETED', 'orgunits' => $orgunits]); } }
The orgunits parameter can now be supplied in the URL as follows: https://example.com/api/trainings/completed?orgunits=A,B
and the resulting value inside $orgunits will be ["A", "B"]
. User-defined conversions can be supplied by implementing the web.rest.Conversion
interface.
Matrix parameters
This library supports parameters inside path segments, e.g. https://example.com/api/trainings/status=COMPLETED;orgunits=A,B/authors
:
use web\rest\{Resource, Get, Matrix}; #[Resource('/api/trainings')] class Trainings { #[Get('/{filter}/authors')] public function authors(#[Matrix] array $filter) { $authors= []; foreach ($this->repository->find($filter) as $training) { $authors[$training->author->id()]= $training->author; } return $authors; } }
The resulting value inside $filter will be ["status" => "COMPLETED", "orgunits" => ["A", "B"]]
.
Return types
Methods can return anything, which is then serialized and written to the response with a "200 OK" status. If you want greater control over the response, you can use the web.rest.Response
class. It provides a fluent DSL for handling various scenarios.
Example:
return Response::created('/users/{id}', $id)->type('application/vnd.example.type-v2+json')->entity($user);
Creation:
Response::ok()
- 200 OKResponse::created([string $location])
- 201 Created, optionally with a Location headerResponse::noContent()
- 204 No contentResponse::see(string $location)
- 302 Found and a Location headerResponse::notModified()
- 304 Not modifiedResponse::notFound([string $message])
- 404 Not found and an optional message, which is serializedResponse::notAcceptable([string $message])
- 406 Not acceptable and an optional message, which is serializedResponse::error(int $code[, string $message])
- An error and an optional message, which is serializedResponse::status(int $code)
- Any other status code
Headers:
$response->type(string $mime)
will set the Content-Type header$response->header(string $name, string $value)
will set a header with a given name and value
Body:
$response->entity(var $value)
will sent a value, serializing it$response->stream(io.streams.InputStream $in[, int $size])
will stream a response$response->body(string $bytes)
will write the given raw bytes to the response
Asynchronous invocation
The following code will run the upload function asynchronously, continuing to serve requests while file contents are being transmitted.
use io\Folder; use web\rest\{Async, Post, Resource, Response}; #[Resource('/api')] class Uploads { public function __construct(private Folder $folder) { } #[Post('/files')] public function upload(#[Request] $req) { return new Async(function() use($req) { if ($multipart= $req->multipart()) { foreach ($multipart->files() as $file) { yield from $file->transmit($this->folder); } } return Response::ok(); }); } }
