still in early development stage
klynt has a very(incomplete) small api that can define resources which can be fetched using http(GET, POST or other http methods). Besides the simple fetch, a resource can be manipulated/handled by a custom module or transformed into a model(elixir struct).
The api is very simple - a resource has a name(which will be transformed into a function) and "metadata". The metadata defines some key attributes:
urlwhich is the endpoint of the resourcemodeltransform the raw response into the provided structhandlerpasses the response handler's(module)handle/2function
See more examples inside the test module!
The get/2 macro accepts a resource name and "metadata". The resource name
string becomes the name of the function which will be automatically defined
and available to the module that uses KL.Resource. The metadata is a
keyword list that describes the resource.
get 'account_info', url: "api.dropboxapi.com/1/account/info"
will define a function named account_info/1 which takes a map as params.
The post/2 macro accepts a resource name and "metadata". The resource name
string becomes the name of the function which will be automatically defined
and available to the module that uses KL.Resource. The metadata is a
keyword list that describes the resource.
post "shares", url: "https://api.dropboxapi.com/1/shares/auto"
will define a function named shares/2 which takes a keyword list as a body
and map for the headers.
same as post/2 the only difference beting the http method which is PUT
