NAME
Test::HTTP::MockServer::REST - REST Helper for Test::HTTP::MockServer
SYNOPSIS
my $rest = Test::HTTP::MockServer::REST->new(
'methoda_GET' => qr{^GET /foo/([a-z0-9]+)/bar$},
'methoda_POST' => qr{^POST /foo/([a-z0-9]+)/bar$},
);
# use an object, where methoda_GET and methoda_POST will be called
my $requestprocessor = $rest->wrap_object(MyMockServer->new());
# alternatively, just use a hash
my $requestprocessor = $rest->wrap_hash({ methoda_GET => sub { ... } })DESCRIPTION
This is a helper class to be used with Test::HTTP::MockServer to easily implement the mock of a REST service, you will provide the identifier to the operation and a regex to match the request against.
METHODS
- new
-
Creates a new helper. It takes a hash as input, where the key is the identifier of the operation and the value is a regular expression to be applied against the string "$method $path" with $method being the all-caps http method name and $path being the path sent in the request.
- wrap_object
-
Return a coderef to be used as the request processor that dispatches the calls as methods in the given object. If the object doesn't implement the method listed, it will fail with error 500.
- wrap_hash
-
A simplified version that dispatches based on a simple hash.
CALLING THE WRAPPED CODE
The following arguments are sent to the code called by the wrapper:
- $self (wrap_object version only)
-
If the code was wrapped with wrap_object, the object-oriented calling convention will be followed, therefore $self will be the first argument. However, in the wrap_hash case, the invocation happens as a simple invocation of the code reference, so there is no $self.
- $request
-
The HTTP::Request object.
- $response
-
The HTTP::Response object.
- $captures
-
An array reference with the items captured by the regex.
- $data
-
Decoded data submitted in the request. For now this is only available if the input content type is 'application/json'.
If data is returned by the code, and the request had an appropriate Accept header, the data will be encoded in the given content type (for now only JSON is supported).
If the code returns any data but there is no Accept header or the accepted type is not supported, it will cause a failure.
