=head1 NAME
Froody::Response::PerlDS - create a response from a Perl data structure
=head1 SYNOPSIS
my $rsp = Froody::Response::PerlDS->new();
$rsp->structure($froody_method);
$rsp->content({
name => "bob",
attributes => { foo => "bar" },
value => "harry",
});
print $rsp->render();
# prints out
harry
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This is a simple type of response that allows you to quickly create
responses from Perl data structures.
For example:
$response->content({
name => "bob",
attributes => { foo => "bar" },
value => "harry",
});
will result in the XML:
harry
and
$response->content({
name => "bob",
attributes => { foo => "bar" },
children => [
{
name => "dave",
attributes => { fuzz => "ball" },
value => "ninepence",
},
],
});
will result in the XML
ninepence
Adding content implicitly sets the status to 'ok', unless it is already
set, because this is probably what you mean, and therefore you don't
have to think about it.
=cut
=head2 Attributes
In addition to the attributes inherited from Froody::Response, this class has
the following get/set methods:
=over 4
=item status
The status of the response, should be 'ok' or 'fail' only.
=item content
The contents of the data structure. Setting this accessor causes a deep
clone of the data structure to happen, meaning that you can add similar
content to multiple Response objects by setting on one object, altering, then
setting another object.
my $data = { name => "fred", attr => { fred => "wilma" } };
$response_wives->content($data);
$data->{attr}{fred} = "barney";
$response_buddies->content($data);
Note however, this is not true for the returned value from content. Altering
that data structure really does alter the data in the response (this is
considered a feature)
# in the future, fred is buddies with george
$response_buddies->content->{attr}{fred} = "george";
=item root_name
the name of the root node. If unset, this will default to 'rsp'. See
L.

=cut
__PACKAGE__->mk_accessors(qw(
root_name
));
=head1 Methods
=over
=item new()
Creates a new, empty message object. Inherited from L.
=item find_by_path($xpath)
Finds the correct node in the Froody::Response structure given an
xpath (like) path.
=cut
sub find_by_path {
my ($self, $target) = @_;
_find_by_path ({children => $self->{content}}, $target);
}
sub _find_by_path {
my ($node, $name) = @_;
return $node unless defined $name;
my ($lookup, $next) = split '/', $name, 2;
my ($child) = grep {$_->{name} eq $lookup} @{$node->{children}};
_find_by_path ($child, $next)
}
=item default_root_name
Returns the default name of the root node. Is "rsp" for this class - you
can override this by subclassing, or by setting the 'root_name' property
on an instance.
=cut
sub default_root_name { "rsp" }
=item raw_render
Internal method, designed for subclassing. Does the actual rendering.

=head2 Converting other Responses to Froody::Response::PerlDS objects
Once you've loaded this class you can automatically convert other
Froody::Response class instances to Froody::Response::PerlDS objects with
the C method.
use Froody::Response::String;
use Froody::Response::PerlDS;
my $perlds = Froody::Response::String
->new()
->structure($froody_method)
->set_string('bar');
->as_perlds;
print ref($perlds); # prints "Froody::Response::PerlDS"
=cut
# as_perlds is documented
sub as_perlds { return $_[0] }
sub Froody::Response::as_perlds
{
my $self = shift;
$self = $self->as_xml; # get as far as XML
my $perlds = Froody::Response::PerlDS->new()
->structure($self->structure);
# find the top node
my ($top) = $self->xml->findnodes("/rsp")
or Froody::Error->throw("froody.convert", "no rsp!");
my $stat = $top->getAttribute("stat");
unless (defined($stat) && ($stat eq "ok" || $stat eq "fail"))
{ Froody::Error->throw("froody.convert", "invalid stat!") }
# right, recurse down our XML and turn it into this data structure
$perlds->content(_recurse_to_ds($top->findnodes("./*")));
$perlds->status( $stat );
return $perlds;
}
sub _recurse_to_ds
{
my $node = shift;
return {} unless $node;
# work out the text content of this node
my $text = $node->findvalue("./text()");
$text =~ s/^\s+//; # lose leading white space
$text =~ s/\s+$//; # lose trailing white space
# what were the attributes?
my %attr = map { $_->nodeName => $_->getValue } $node->findnodes("./@*");
# what were the children?
my @children = map { _recurse_to_ds($_) } $node->findnodes("./*");
return {
name => $node->nodeName,
# text, if there was any text
((length $text) ? (value => $text) : ()),
# attributes, if there were any attributes
((%attr) ? (attributes => \%attr) : ()),
# children, if there were any children
((@children) ? (children => \@children) : ()),
}
}
=head1 BUGS
Attribute names are not encoded (so people using non ASCII attribute names do
so at their own risk.) This doesn't work for me, and the whole attributes
vanish unexpectedly. This is either a XML::LibXML bug or a perl bug, but I
can't produce a small enough test case to make it work. Patches welcome.
Please report any bugs you find via the CPAN RT system.
