RESTFul API

Latest Stable Version Total Downloads License Build Status Scrutinizer Code Quality Code Coverage

Introduction

RESTFul API provides a simple framework that makes the implemention of a OpenApi 2 (verion 3 is still to come) server pretty simple.

Actually the library only supports a subset of the OpenApi 2 functionality, but we'll add additional during the time.

Installation

If you want to write an application that uses RESTFul API, you have to install it using Composer. To do this, simply add it to the dependencies in your composer.json

{
    "require": {
        "appserver-io/restapi": "~1.0"
    }
}

Configuration

Simply register the two servlets AppserverIo\RestApi\Servlets\SwaggerServlet and AppserverIo\RestApi\Servlets\ApiServlet in the WEB-INF/web.xml file. The main description of your webservices can be done through the annotations of Rob Allens library zircote/swagger-php.

The Servlet Configuration

The configuration has to be done in the WEB-INF/web.xml file as shown in this example

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns="http://www.appserver.io/appserver">

    <display-name>my-api</display-name>
    <description>My API web application</description>

    <session-config>
        <session-name>my-api/session-name>
        <session-file-prefix>my-api_session_</session-file-prefix>
    </session-config>

    <servlet>
        <description>A servlet that handles DHTML files.</description>
        <display-name>The DHTML Servlet</display-name>
        <servlet-name>dhtml</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>AppserverIo\Appserver\ServletEngine\Servlets\DhtmlServlet</servlet-class>
    </servlet>

    <servlet>
        <description>A servlet that renders the content of the Swagger definition.</description>

        <servlet-class>AppserverIo\RestApi\Servlets\ApiServlet</servlet-class>
        <bean-ref>
            <bean-ref-name>RequestHandlerFactory</bean-ref-name>

                <injection-target-property>requestHandlerFactory</injection-target-property>
            </injection-target>
        </bean-ref>
        <init-param>
          <param-name>api</param-name>
          <param-value>OA2</param-value>
        </init-param>
    </servlet>

Annotate the Beans

After the web application has been configured, simple annotate the classes that you want to expose as webserver with the necessary annotations like

/**
 * A SLSB implementation providing some API functionality.
 *
 * @EPB\Stateless
 *
 * @SWG\Info(
 *     title="My API",
 *     version="1.0.0"
 * )
 *
 * @SWG\Swagger(
 *   schemes={"http"},
 *   host="127.0.0.1:9080",
 *   basePath="/my-api/api.do"
 * )
 */
class SomeProcessor
{

    /**
     * Returns the DTO with the passed ID.
     *
     * @param integer $id The ID of the DTO to return
     *
     * @return \Ma\Api\Dtos\MyDto The DTO with the data
     *
     * @SWG\Get(
     *     path="/traveltaxpackages/{id}",
     *     operationId="find",
     *     produces={"application/json"},
     *     @SWG\Parameter(
     *         name="id",
     *         in="path",
     *         description="The ID of the DTO to return",
     *         required=true,
     *         type="integer"
     *     ),
     *     @SWG\Response(
     *         response="200",
     *         description="The DTO",
     *         @SWG\Schema(
     *             ref="#/definitions/MyDto"
     *         )
     *     )
     * )
     */
    public function find($id)
    {
        // return an array with serializable DTOs here
    }
}

Usage

Open the browser and enter the URL http://127.0.0.1:9080/my-api/swagger.do which should result in rendering the Swagger configuration.
