HATEOAS helps you build hypermedia API clients, by providing a simple

|
+
interface to navigate through pages, submitting forms, and caching local
|
7
|
+
responses.

The current version is 0.0.1.

Installing
|
16
|
+
==========
|
17
|
+
|
18
|
+
Become a HATEr by using Rubygems:
|
19
|
+
|
20
|
+
```
|
21
|
+
gem install hateoas
|
22
|
+
```
|
23
|
+
|
24
|
+
Usage
|
25
|
+
=====
|
26
|
+
|
27
|
+
Primarily, you'll use HATEOAS to help create your own gem to interact with your
|
28
|
+
API. We'll pretend that you're writing an API to your own blogging
|
29
|
+
software, since blogs are the Rails "Hello world" project.
|
30
|
+
|
31
|
+
Right now, HATEOAS assumes that you use XHTML5 to drive your API.
|
32
|
+
|
33
|
+
Configuration
|
34
|
+
-------------
|
35
|
+
|
36
|
+
The first thing you need to do is configure HATEOAS. Congratulations on
|
37
|
+
creating a hypermedia API; it means the configuration is minimal! Simply
|
38
|
+
assign your root URI like this:
|
39
|
+
|
40
|
+
```
|
41
|
+
Hateoas.base_uri = "http://api.hackety-hack.com"
|
42
|
+
```
|
43
|
+
|
44
|
+
HATEOAS has environment variables that make it easy to hit your local copy in
|
45
|
+
development mode. By default, HATEOAS assumes you're using pow, and so it will
|
46
|
+
append '.dev' onto the end of your `base_uri` when it is in development
|
47
|
+
mode. To use something else, set the `development_base_uri`:
|
48
|
+
|
49
|
+
```
|
50
|
+
HATEOAS.develoment_base_uri = "http://localhost:9292"
|
51
|
+
```
|
52
|
+
|
53
|
+
The `HATEOAS_ENV` variable will control which configuration is used. Just like
|
54
|
+
Rails, there are development, test, and production modes.
|
55
|
+
|
56
|
+
In my own APIs, I prefer to use URIs for my rel attributes. If you also do
|
57
|
+
this, there's an optional variable that makes using URIs simpler. Without it,
|
58
|
+
here's how you navigate to the 'new post' page, then the 'new comments'
|
59
|
+
page:
|
60
|
+
|
61
|
+
```
|
62
|
+
Hateoas::DSL.click_link("/rels/new-post")
|
63
|
+
Hateoas::DSL.click_link("/rels/new-comments")
|
64
|
+
```
|
65
|
+
|
66
|
+
And with it:
|
67
|
+
|
68
|
+
```
|
69
|
+
Hateoas.rel_namespace = "rels"
|
70
|
+
|
71
|
+
Hateoas::DSL.click_link("new-post")
|
72
|
+
Hateoas::DSL.click_link("new-comments")
|
73
|
+
```
|
74
|
+
|
75
|
+
Groovy?
|
76
|
+
|
77
|
+
DSL
|
78
|
+
---
|
79
|
+
|
80
|
+
HATEOAS provides a `DSL` module with all of the DSL methods you'll need. You
|
81
|
+
can use these methods in two ways: One is to reference them by using their fully
|
82
|
+
qualified names:
|
83
|
+
|
84
|
+
```
|
85
|
+
Hateoas::DSL.click_link("new-post")
|
86
|
+
```
|
87
|
+
|
88
|
+
Optionally, if you're building your own infrastructure around all of this, you
|
89
|
+
can include the module inside your own class:
|
90
|
+
|
91
|
+
```
|
92
|
+
class MyApi
|
93
|
+
include Hateoas::DSL
|
94
|
+
|
95
|
+
def navigate(path)
|
96
|
+
click_link(path)
|
97
|
+
end
|
98
|
+
end
|
99
|
+
```
|
100
|
+
|
101
|
+
The rest of this documentation will simply use `visit` rather than
|
102
|
+
`Hateoas::DSL.visit`.

|
105
|
+
----------
|
106
|
+
|
107
|
+
If you read the previous section, you've got this one figured out: simply give
|
108
|
+
a rel to the `click_link` method:
|
109
|
+
|
110
|
+
```
|
111

click_link("new-post")

Getting Data Back

|

|
120
|

121
|

There are a few methods to interact with forms:
|
122
|
+
|
123
|
+
```
|
124
|
+
fill_in('First Name', :with => 'John')
|
125
|
+
fill_in('Password', :with => 'Seekrit')
|
126
|
+
fill_in('Description', :with => 'Really Long Text...')
|
127
|
+
choose('A Radio Button')
|
128
|
+
check('A Checkbox')
|
129
|
+
uncheck('A Checkbox')
|
130
|
+
attach_file('Image', '/path/to/image.jpg')
|
131
|
+
select('Option', :from => 'Select Box')
|
132
|
+
```
|
133
|
+
|
134
|
+
Caching
|
135
|
+
-------
|
136
|
+
|
137
|
+
HATEOAS includes a client-side cache, and respects HTTP caching directives.
|
138
|
+
This helps with performance, and keeps network connections down.
