API Client Foundation for PHP 7

Goals

• Tool for easy wireframing of resources for wyrihaximus/api-client based API clients

Installation

To install via Composer, use the command below, it will automatically detect the latest version and bind it with ^.

composer require api-clients/resource-generator 

Usage

Pas a definition YAML file.

./vendor/bin/api-client-resource-generator [definition]

For example:

./vendor/bin/api-client-resource-generator ./yaml/project.yml

YAML

The YAML format allows for quick and easy generation of resources, empty resources, and resource tests. The spec consists out of two or more files.

resource.yaml

First there is the resource.yml file with the meta data regarding all resources:

yaml_location: yaml                        # The location where the YAML files for the Resources are 
api_settings: Example\Client\ApiSettings   # API Settings file location
src:                                       # SRC 
  path: src/Resources                      # Path where the resources should be placed
  namespace: Example\Client\Resource       # The namespace for the resources
tests:                                     # TESTS
  path: tests/Resources                    # Path where the resources tests should be placed
  namespace: Example\Tests\Client\Resource # The namespace for the tests

yaml/project.yaml

The following YAML is an example resource file:

class: Project                             # Resource classname
properties:                                # The resource's properties
  id: int                                  # Simple id field with type int
  name: string                             # Any scalar types or classes work
  plugins: SplObjectStorage                #
  builds:                                  # But differet types `special` properties are supported.
    type: array                            # For example the collection expects the type to be an array
    annotations:                           # and it uses an annotation name `collection` to     
      collection: Project\Build            # transform all items in the array to the specified resource.
  latestBuild:                             # Another supported annotation is `nested`, `nested` allows you to
    type: Project\Build                    # turn a properties that would otherwise be an array into a
    annotations:                           # resource. With it's own properties and methods
      nested: Project\Build                #
  updated:                                 # Normally all methods are generated to their camelCase property name
    method: updatedAt                      # but with `method` you can specify a custom method
    type: DateTimeInterface                # When for example dealing with time, you can specify to return an interface
    wrap: DateTimeImmutable                # while wrapping the value in a concrete class
