+ # Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
2
+
3
+ ## Our Pledge
4
+
5
+ In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as
6
+ contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and
7
+ our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
8
+ size, disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, level of experience,
9
+ nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and
10
+ orientation.
11
+
12
+ ## Our Standards
13
+
14
+ Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment
15
+ include:
16
+
17
+ * Using welcoming and inclusive language
18
+ * Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences
19
+ * Gracefully accepting constructive criticism
20
+ * Focusing on what is best for the community
21
+ * Showing empathy towards other community members
22
+
23
+ Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:
24
+
25
+ * The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or
26
+ advances
27
+ * Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
28
+ * Public or private harassment
29
+ * Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or electronic
30
+ address, without explicit permission
31
+ * Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
32
+ professional setting
33
+
34
+ ## Our Responsibilities
35
+
36
+ Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable
37
+ behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in
38
+ response to any instances of unacceptable behavior.
39
+
40
+ Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or
41
+ reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions
42
+ that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or
43
+ permanently any contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate,
44
+ threatening, offensive, or harmful.
45
+
46
+ ## Scope
47
+
48
+ This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces
49
+ when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of
50
+ representing a project or community include using an official project e-mail
51
+ address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
52
+ representative at an online or offline event. Representation of a project may be
53
+ further defined and clarified by project maintainers.
54
+
55
+ ## Enforcement
56
+
57
+ Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
58
+ reported by contacting the project team. All
59
+ complaints will be reviewed and investigated and will result in a response that
60
+ is deemed necessary and appropriate to the circumstances. The project team is
61
+ obligated to maintain confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident.
62
+ Further details of specific enforcement policies may be posted separately.
63
+
64
+ Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct in good
65
+ faith may face temporary or permanent repercussions as determined by other
66
+ members of the project's leadership.
67
+
68
+ ## Attribution

+ # JsonApiServer
2
+
3
+ This gem provides tools for building JSON APIs per http://jsonapi.org spec (1.0).
4
+ It supports sparse fieldsets, sorting, filtering, pagination, and inclusion of
5
+ related resources. Sorting, filtering, and inclusions are whitelisted
6
+ so depth/complexity can be controlled.
7
+
8
+ This library: (1) generates data for sorting, filtering,
9
+ inclusions, and pagination, (2) provides serializers and helper classes for
10
+ building the response with this data, and (3) handles/renders errors in JSON API format.
11
+ Otherwise, you build your API as you normally do (i.e, routes, authorization,
12
+ caching, etc.).
13
+
14
+ Use at your own risk. This gem is under development and has not been used
15
+ in production yet. Known to work with Ruby 2.3.x and Rails 5.x.
16
+ Supports only ActiveRecord at this time.
17
+
18
+ - **Example app** -> https://github.com/ed-mare/jsonapiserver-example
19
+ - **Documentation** -> Install gem rdoc for more documentation.
20
+
21
+ ## Installation
22
+
23
+ Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
24
+
25
+ ```ruby
26
+ gem 'json_api_server'
27
+ ```
28
+
29
+ And then execute:
30
+
31
+ $ bundle
32
+
33
+ Or install it yourself as:
34
+
35
+ $ gem install json_api_server
36
+
37
+ ## Usage
38
+
39
+ Install gem rdoc for more documentation.
40
+
41
+ ##### 1) Include JsonApiServer::Controller::ErrorHandling in your base API controller.
42
+
43
+ ```ruby
44
+ # i.e.,
45
+ class BaseApiController < ApplicationController
46
+ include JsonApiServer::Controller::ErrorHandling
47
+ end
48
+ ```
49
+
50
+ It provides methods which render errors per http://jsonapi.org/format/#errors:
51
+
52
+ - `render_400`, `render_401`, `render_404`, `render_409`, `render_422`, `render_500`,
53
+ `render_unknown_format`, `render_503`.
54
+
55
+ It rescues from and renders JSON API errors for:
56
+
57
+ - StandardError (render_500)
58
+ - JsonApiServer::BadRequest (render_400)
59
+ - ActionController::BadRequest (render_400)
60
+ - ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound, ActionController::RoutingError (render_404)
61
+ - ActiveRecord::RecordNotUnique (render_409)
62
+ - ActionController::RoutingError (render_404)
63
+ - ActionController::UrlGenerationError (render_404)
64
+ - ActionController::UnknownController (render_404)
65
+ - ActionController::UnknownFormat (render_unknown_format 406)
66
+
67
+ Additionally:
68
+
69
+ - Use `render_422(object)` in controllers to render validation errors.
70
+
71
+ Error messages are defined in 'config/locales/en.yml' and can be customized
72
+ or redefined.
73
+
74
+ i.e.,
75
+
76
+ ```ruby
77
+ # Given a sandwiches controller...
78
+ class Api::V1::SandwichesController < Api::BaseController
79
+ ...
80
+ end
81
+
82
+ # config/locales/en.yml
83
+ en:
84
+ json_api_server:
85
+ controller:
86
+ sandwiches:
87
+ name: 'sandwich'
88
+
89
+ # messages now become:
90
+ # 404 => "This sandwich does not exist."
91
+ # 409 => "This sandwich already exists."
92
+ ```
93
+
94
+ ##### 2) Include JsonApiServer::MimeTypes in initializers
95
+
96
+ Spec: "JSON API requires use of the JSON API media type
97
+ (application/vnd.api+json) for exchanging data."
98
+
99
+ To support this mime type:
100
+
101
+ ```ruby
102
+ # config/initializers/mime_types.rb
103
+ include JsonApiServer::MimeTypes
104
+ ```
105
+ ##### 3) Configure the gem
106
+
107
+ Configure the logger, base URL, serialization options and filter builders.
108
+
109
+ ```ruby
110
+ # config/initializers/json_api_server.rb
111
+ JsonApiServer.configure do |c|
112
+ c.base_url = 'https://www.something.com'
113
+ c.logger = Rails.logger
114
+ c.serializer_options = {
115
+ escape_mode: :json,
116
+ time: :xmlschema,
117
+ mode: :compat
118
+ }
119
+ end
120
+ ```
121
+
122
+ Optionally, set this Rails config so '`&`' is not escaped in pagination URLs:
123
+
124
+ ```ruby
125
+ # application.rb
126
+ config.active_support.escape_html_entities_in_json = false
127
+ ```
128
+
129
+ ##### 4) Use JsonApiServer::Builder to collect data in the controller.
130
+
131
+ This class handles pagination, sorting, filters, inclusion of
132
+ related resources, and sparse fieldsets. It collects the necessary data for the
133
+ serializers.
134
+
135
+ This class uses the following classes. See each class's rdoc for configuration options.
136
+
137
+ - JsonApiServer::Pagination
138
+ - JsonApiServer::Sort
139
+ - JsonApiServer::Filter
140
+ - JsonApiServer::Include
141
+ - JsonApiServer::Fields
142
+
143
+ A variety of search capabilities can be configured for model attributes with
144
+ `JsonApiServer::Filter` - LIKE queries, ILIKE queries (Postgres), IN queries,
145
+ comparison queries, range queries, and queries against Postgres jsonb arrays
146
+ (case sensitive/insensitive). Plus, custom queries and custom filters can be easily
147
+ added.
148
+
149
+ **Example**:
150
+
151
+ ```ruby
152
+ class TopicsController < BaseApiController
153
+ attr_accessor :pagination_options, :sort_options, :filter_options, :include_options
154
+
155
+ before_action do |c|
156
+ # Set a limit on the maximum number of records a user can request per page.
157
+ # Set the default number of records per page.
158
+ c.pagination_options = { default_per_page: 10, max_per_page: 60 }
159
+
160
+ # Whitelist sortable attributes and set default sort.
161
+ c.sort_options = {
162
+ permitted: [:character, :location, :published],
163
+ default: { id: :desc }
164
+ }
165
+
166
+ # Whitelist filters and configure how to perform the query. There are built-in
167
+ # query builder classes and custom classes can be plugged in.
168
+ c.filter_options = [
169
+ { id: { type: 'Integer' } },
170
+ { published: { type: 'Date' } },
171
+ :location,
172
+ { book: { wildcard: :both } }
173
+ ]
174
+
175
+ # Whitelist inclusions and optionally configure eagerloading.
176
+ c.include_options = [
177
+ {'publisher': -> { includes(:publisher) }},
178
+ {'comments': -> { includes(:comments) }},
179
+ 'comment.author'
180
+ ]
181
+ end
182
+
183
+ def index
184
+ # collect the data
185
+ builder = JsonApiServer::Builder.new(request, Topic.current)
186
+ .add_pagination(pagination_options)
187
+ .add_filter(filter_options)
188
+ .add_include(include_options)
189
+ .add_sort(sort_options)
190
+ .add_fields
191
+
192
+ # pass the data to the serializer
193
+ serializer = TopicsSerializer.from_builder(builder)
194
+ render json: serializer.to_json, status: :ok
195
+ end
196
+
197
+ def show
198
+ builder = JsonApiServer::Builder.new(request, Topic.find(params[:id]))
199
+ .add_include(['publisher', 'comments', 'comments.includes'])
200
+ .add_fields
201
+
202
+ serializer = TopicSerializer.from_builder(builder)
203
+ render json: serializer.to_json, status: :ok
204
+ end
205
+
206
+ def create
207
+ topic = Topic.new(topic_params)
208
+
209
+ if topic.save
210
+ serializer = TopicSerializer.new(topic)
211
+ render json: serializer.to_json, status: :created
212
+ else
213
+ render_422(topic) # return validation errors in JSON API format.
214
+ end
215
+ end
216
+
217
+ protected
218
+
219
+ def topic_params
220
+ params.require(:data)
221
+ .require(:attributes)
222
+ .permit(:character, :book, :quote, :location, :published,
223
+ :author, :publisher_id)
224
+ end
225
+
226
+ end
227
+ ```
228
+
229
+ ##### 5) Create Serializers
230
+
231
+ JsonApiServer serializers use the oj gem (https://github.com/ohler55/oj), a fast JSON parser
232
+ and Object marshaller. Helper classes
233
+ JsonApiServer::AttributesBuilder (sparse fieldsets), JsonApiServer::RelationshipsBuilder
234
+ (relationships/included), JsonApiServer::Paginator (pagination), and JsonApiServer::MetaBuilder (meta)
235
+ assist with populating serializers.
236
+
237
+ Caching is not built into the serializers
238
+ given the variability of JSON API documents. Low level caching is recommended.
239
+
240
+ ---
241
+
242
+ All serializers inherit from JsonApiServer::BaseSerializer. It creates this structure:
243
+
244
+ ```ruby
245
+ {
246
+ ":jsonapi": {
247
+ ":version": "1.0"
248
+ },
249
+ ":links": null,
250
+ ":data": null,
251
+ ":included": null,
252
+ ":meta": null
253
+ }
254
+ ```
255

256
+ Sometimes only part of document is needed, i.e., when embedding one serializer in another.
257
+ `as_json` takes an optional hash argument which determines which parts of the document to return.
258
+ These options can also be set in JsonApiServer::BaseSerializer#as_json_options.
259
+
260
+ ```ruby
261
+ serializer.as_json(include: [:data]) # => { data: {...} }
262
+ serializer.as_json(include: [:links]) # => { links: {...} }
263
+ serializer.as_json(include: [:links, :data]) # =>
264
+ # {
265
+ # links: {...},
266
+ # data: {...}
267
+ # }
268
+ ```

272
+ JsonApiServer::ResourceSerializer inherits from JsonApiServer::BaseSerializer.
273
+ It is intended for a single resource (i.e, comment, author). Instantiate with a
274
+ JsonApiServer::Builder instance:
275
+
276
+ **Example**:
277
+
278
+ ```ruby
279
+ class TopicSerializer < JsonApiServer::ResourceSerializer
280
+ resource_type 'topics'
281
+
282

309
+ end
310
+
311
+ # Example: provide different ways of accessing the same relationship data:
312
+ #
313
+ # 1) 'comments' puts all data in the relationship (easier to walk the tree).
314
+ # 2) 'comments.includes' puts data in the included section and relationship
315
+ # links to it.
316
+ def inclusions

351
+
352
+ Helper methods:
353
+
354
+ - JsonApiServer::ResourceSerializer#attributes_builder -- returns an instance of
355
+ JsonApiServer::AttributesBuilder for the 'type' specified in `resource_type`.
356
+ - JsonApiServer::ResourceSerializer#meta_builder -- returns an instance of
357
+ JsonApiServer::MetaBuilder for building the meta section.
358
+ - JsonApiServer::ResourceSerializer#relationships_builder -- returns an instance of
359
+ JsonApiServer::RelationshipsBuilder with whitelisted includes.
360
+ - JsonApiServer::ResourceSerializer#relationship? -- returns true if relationship is
361
+ requested.
362
+ - JsonApiServer::ResourceSerializer#inclusions? -- returns true if inclusions are
363
+ requested.

366
+ JsonApiServer::ResourcesSerializer inherits from JsonApiServer::ResourceSerializer.
367
+ It serializes a collection of objects with a specified serializer and merges them.
368
+ It populates the links section with pagination URLs if JsonApiServer::Builder#add_pagination
369
+ is called.
370
+
371
+ **Example**:
372
+
373
+ ```ruby
374
+ class TopicSerializer < JsonApiServer::ResourceSerializer
375
+ ...
376
+ end
377
+
378
+ class TopicsSerializer < JsonApiServer::ResourcesSerializer
379
+ serializer TopicSerializer # serializer for objects
380
+ end
381
+
382
+ builder = JsonApiServer::Builder.new(request, Topic.current)
383
+ .add_pagination(pagination_options)
384
+ .add_filter(filter_options)
385
+ .add_include(include_options)
386
+ .add_sort(sort_options)
387
+ .add_fields
388
+
389
+ serializer = TopicsSerializer.from_builder(builder)
390
+ ```
391
+
392
+ ## Development
393
+
394
+ 1. Build the docker image:
395
+
396
+ ```shell
397
+ docker-compose build
398
+ ```
399
+
400
+ 2. Start docker image with an interactive bash shell:
401
+
402
+ ```shell
403
+ docker-compose run --rm gem
404
+ ```
405
+
406
+ 3. Once in bash session, code, run tests, start console, etc.
407
+
408
+ ```shell
409
+ # run console with gem loaded
410
+ bundle console
411
+
412
+ # run tests - to be run from root of gem
413
+ bundle exec rspec
414
+
415
+ # generate rdoc
416
+ rdoc --main 'README.md' --exclude 'spec' --exclude 'bin' --exclude 'Gemfile' --exclude 'Dockerfile' --exclude 'Rakefile'
417
+ ```
418
+
419
+ ## Todo
420
+
421
+ - Test against multiple rubies/rails.
422
+ - Clean up tests, esp. as_json which are brittle.
423
+ - Test against Postgres.
424
+ - Support Mongoid.
