20 =head1 NAME
22 C4::Service - functions for JSON webservices.
24 =head1 SYNOPSIS
26 my ( $query, $response) = C4::Service->init( { circulate => 1 } );
27 my ( $borrowernumber) = C4::Service->require_params( 'borrowernumber' );
29 C4::Service->return_error( 'internal', 'Frobnication failed', frobnicator => 'foo' );
31 $response->param( frobnicated => 'You' );
33 C4::Service->return_success( $response );
35 =head1 DESCRIPTION
37 This module packages several useful functions for JSON webservices.
39 =cut
41 use strict;
42 use warnings;
44 use CGI;
45 use C4::Auth qw( check_api_auth );
46 use C4::Output qw( :ajax );
47 use C4::Output::JSONStream;
48 use JSON;
50 our $debug;
52 BEGIN {
53 $debug = $ENV{DEBUG} || 0;
56 our ( $query, $cookie );
58 =head1 METHODS
60 =head2 init
62 our ( $query, $response ) = C4::Service->init( %needed_flags );
64 Initialize the service and check for the permissions in C<%needed_flags>.
66 Also, check that the user is authorized and has a current session, and return an
67 'auth' error if not.
69 init() returns a C<CGI> object and a C<C4::Output::JSONStream>. The latter can
70 be used for both flat scripts and those that use dispatch(), and should be
71 passed to C<return_success()>.
73 =cut
75 sub init {
76 my ( $class, %needed_flags ) = @_;
78 our $query = new CGI;
80 my ( $status, $cookie_, $sessionID ) = check_api_auth( $query, \%needed_flags );
82 our $cookie = $cookie_; # I have no desire to offend the Perl scoping gods
84 $class->return_error( 'auth', $status ) if ( $status ne 'ok' );
86 return ( $query, new C4::Output::JSONStream );
89 =head2 return_error
91 C4::Service->return_error( $type, $error, %flags );
93 Exit the script with HTTP status 400, and return a JSON error object.
95 C<$type> should be a short, lower case code for the generic type of error (such
96 as 'auth' or 'input').
98 C<$error> should be a more specific code giving information on the error. If
99 multiple errors of the same type occurred, they should be joined by '|'; i.e.,
100 'expired|different_ip'. Information in C<$error> does not need to be
101 human-readable, as its formatting should be handled by the client.
103 Any additional information to be given in the response should be passed as
104 param => value pairs.
106 =cut
108 sub return_error {
109 my ( $class, $type, $error, %flags ) = @_;
111 my $response = new C4::Output::JSONStream;
113 $response->param( message => $error ) if ( $error );
114 $response->param( type => $type, %flags );
116 output_with_http_headers $query, $cookie, $response->output, 'json', '400 Bad Request';
117 exit;
120 =head2 return_multi
122 C4::Service->return_multi( \@responses, %flags );
124 return_multi is similar to return_success or return_error, but allows you to
125 return different statuses for several requests sent at once (using HTTP status
126 "207 Multi-Status", much like WebDAV). The toplevel hashref (turned into the
127 JSON response) looks something like this:
129 { multi => JSON::true, responses => \@responses, %flags }
131 Each element of @responses should be either a plain hashref or an arrayref. If
132 it is a hashref, it is sent to the browser as-is. If it is an arrayref, it is
133 assumed to be in the same form as the arguments to return_error, and is turned
134 into an error structure.
136 All key-value pairs %flags are, as stated above, put into the returned JSON
137 structure verbatim.
139 =cut
141 sub return_multi {
142 my ( $class, $responses, @flags ) = @_;
144 my $response = new C4::Output::JSONStream;
146 if ( !@$responses ) {
147 $class->return_success( $response );
148 } else {
149 my @responses_formatted;
151 foreach my $response ( @$responses ) {
152 if ( ref( $response ) eq 'ARRAY' ) {
153 my ($type, $error, @error_flags) = @$response;
155 push @responses_formatted, { is_error => JSON::true, type => $type, message => $error, @error_flags };
156 } else {
157 push @responses_formatted, $response;
161 $response->param( 'multi' => JSON::true, responses => \@responses_formatted, @flags );
162 output_with_http_headers $query, $cookie, $response->output, 'json', '207 Multi-Status';
165 exit;
168 =head2 return_success
170 C4::Service->return_success( $response );
172 Print out the information in the C<C4::Output::JSONStream> C<$response>, then
173 exit with HTTP status 200.
175 =cut
177 sub return_success {
178 my ( $class, $response ) = @_;
180 output_with_http_headers $query, $cookie, $response->output, 'json';
183 =head2 require_params
185 my @values = C4::Service->require_params( @params );
187 Check that each of of the parameters specified in @params was sent in the
188 request, then return their values in that order.
190 If a required parameter is not found, send a 'param' error to the browser.
192 =cut
194 sub require_params {
195 my ( $class, @params ) = @_;
197 my @values;
199 for my $param ( @params ) {
200 $class->return_error( 'params', "Missing '$param'" ) if ( !defined( $query->param( $param ) ) );
201 push @values, $query->param( $param );
204 return @values;
207 =head2 dispatch
209 C4::Service->dispatch(
210 [ $path_regex, \@required_params, \&handler ],
214 dispatch takes several array-refs, each one describing a 'route', to use the
215 Rails terminology.
217 $path_regex should be a string in regex-form, describing which methods and
218 paths this route handles. Each route is tested in order, from the top down, so
219 put more specific handlers first. Also, the regex is tested on the request
220 method, plus the path. For instance, you might use the route [ 'POST /', ... ]
221 to handle POST requests to your service.
223 Each named parameter in @required_params is tested for to make sure the route
224 matches, but does not raise an error if one is missing; it simply tests the next
225 route. If you would prefer to raise an error, instead use
226 C<C4::Service->require_params> inside your handler.
228 \&handler is called with each matched group in $path_regex in its arguments. For
229 example, if your service is accessed at the path /blah/123, and you call
230 C<dispatch> with the route [ 'GET /blah/(\\d+)', ... ], your handler will be called
231 with the argument '123'.
233 =cut
235 sub dispatch {
236 my $class = shift;
238 my $path_info = $query->path_info || '/';
240 ROUTE: foreach my $route ( @_ ) {
241 my ( $path, $params, $handler ) = @$route;
243 next unless ( my @match = ( ($query->request_method . ' ' . $path_info) =~ m,^$path$, ) );
245 for my $param ( @$params ) {
246 next ROUTE if ( !defined( $query->param ( $param ) ) );
249 $debug and warn "Using $path";
250 $handler->( @match );
251 return;
254 $class->return_error( 'no_handler', '' );
