JSON with HTTP

原文
Play通过HTTP API与JSON库共同支持内容类型为JSON的HTTP请求和应答。

关于 Controllers, Actions, 和routing的详细资料看HTTP Programming

我们将通过设计一个简单的RESTful Web服务来解释必要的概念,这个服务可以GET 到实体集合,并接收POSTs 创建新的实体。并且这个服务将对所有的数据使用JSON类型。

这是我们在我们的服务中将使用的模型:

case class Location(lat: Double, long: Double)

case class Place(name: String, location: Location)

object Place {
var list: List[Place] = {
List(
Place(
"Sandleford",
Location(51.377797, -1.318965)
),
Place(
"Watership Down",
Location(51.235685, -1.309197)
)
)
}
def save(place: Place) = {
list = list ::: List(place)
}
}

以Json形式提供实体列表

我们将以给我们的Controller添加必须的导入开始:

import play.api.mvc._
import play.api.libs.json._
import play.api.libs.functional.syntax._

object Application extends Controller {
}

在我们写我们的Action之前,我们将需要探究一下从我们的模型转换为JsValue形式。这是通过定义隐式Writes[Place]实现.

implicit val locationWrites: Writes[Location] = (
(JsPath \ "lat").write[Double] and
(JsPath \ "long").write[Double]
)(unlift(Location.unapply))

implicit val placeWrites: Writes[Place] = (
(JsPath \ "name").write[String] and
(JsPath \ "location").write[Location]
)(unlift(Place.unapply))

接下来我们写我们的Action

def listPlaces = Action {
val json = Json.toJson(Place.list)
Ok(json)
}

Action 取到Place 对象列表,使用Json.toJson和我们的隐式Writes[Place]把他们转换成JsValue ,然后再把它作为结果Body返回。Play将会认出JSON结果并相应的为应答设置 Content-Type头和Body值。最后一步是把我们的Action 路由添加到conf/routes:

GET /places controllers.Application.listPlaces

我们可以使用浏览器或HTTP工具生成一个请求测试Action,这个例子使用了Unix的命令行工具 cURL.

curl --include http://localhost:9000/places

应答:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
Content-Length: 141

[{"name":"Sandleford","location":{"lat":51.377797,"long":-1.318965}},{"name":"Watership Down","location":{"lat":51.235685,"long":-1.309197}}]

通过JSON创建一个新的实体引用

对于这个Action ,我们将需要定义一个隐式的 Reads[Place] 来把JsValue转换成我们的模型。

implicit val locationReads: Reads[Location] = (
(JsPath \ "lat").read[Double] and
(JsPath \ "long").read[Double]
)(Location.apply _)

implicit val placeReads: Reads[Place] = (
(JsPath \ "name").read[String] and
(JsPath \ "location").read[Location]
)(Place.apply _)

这个Action 比我们的列表例子复杂些,一些事情需要注意:

  • 这个Action 要求有一个Content-Type头为text/jsonapplication/json ,body 包含需要创建的实体的JSON形式。
  • 它使用JSON指定的BodyParser ,它将 解析请求 并提供做为JsValuerequest.body
  • 我们使用依赖我们的隐式Reads[Place]的validate 方法进行转换。
  • 为了处理验证结果,我们使用有错误和成功流的fold。这个模式也类似于使用表单提交.
  • Action 也发送JSON应答

Body 解析器可以用Case类,隐式的Reads 或接受函数的方式被输入。因此我们可以省掉更多的工作,让Play自动把Json解析成Case类并在调用我们的Action之前进行[验证]。(https://www.playframework.com/documentation/2.5.x/ScalaJsonCombinators#Validation-with-Reads)

import play.api.libs.json._
import play.api.libs.json.Reads._
import play.api.libs.functional.syntax._

implicit val locationReads: Reads[Location] = (
(JsPath \ "lat").read[Double](min(-90.0) keepAnd max(90.0)) and
(JsPath \ "long").read[Double](min(-180.0) keepAnd max(180.0))
)(Location.apply _)

implicit val placeReads: Reads[Place] = (
(JsPath \ "name").read[String](minLength[String](2)) and
(JsPath \ "location").read[Location]
)(Place.apply _)

// This helper parses and validates JSON using the implicit `placeReads`
// above, returning errors if the parsed json fails validation.
def validateJson[A : Reads] = BodyParsers.parse.json.validate(
_.validate[A].asEither.left.map(e => BadRequest(JsError.toJson(e)))
)

// if we don't care about validation we could replace `validateJson[Place]`
// with `BodyParsers.parse.json[Place]` to get an unvalidated case class
// in `request.body` instead.
def savePlaceConcise = Action(validateJson[Place]) { request =>
// `request.body` contains a fully validated `Place` instance.
val place = request.body
Place.save(place)
Ok(Json.obj("status" ->"OK", "message" -> ("Place '"+place.name+"' saved.") ))
}

最后,我们将在conf/routes文件里添加一个路由绑定:

POST /places controllers.Application.savePlace

我们将使用有效的和无效的请求测试Action,以验证我们成功和错误流。
使用有效的数据测试Action:

curl --include
--request POST
--header "Content-type: application/json"
--data '{"name":"Nuthanger Farm","location":{"lat" : 51.244031,"long" : -1.263224}}'
http://localhost:9000/places

应答:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
Content-Length: 57

{"status":"OK","message":"Place 'Nuthanger Farm' saved."}

使用没有“name” 字段的无效数据测试Action:

curl --include
--request POST
--header "Content-type: application/json"
--data '{"location":{"lat" : 51.244031,"long" : -1.263224}}'
http://localhost:9000/places

应答:

HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
Content-Length: 79

{"status":"KO","message":{"obj.name":[{"msg":"error.path.missing","args":[]}]}}

使用错误数据类型“lat”的无效数据测试Action

curl --include
--request POST
--header "Content-type: application/json"
--data '{"name":"Nuthanger Farm","location":{"lat" : "xxx","long" : -1.263224}}'
http://localhost:9000/places

应答:

HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
Content-Length: 92

{"status":"KO","message":{"obj.location.lat":[{"msg":"error.expected.jsnumber","args":[]}]}}

总结

Play是被设计来支持REST使用JSON并且开发这些服务应该是简单的。大部分的工作是给你的模型写ReadsWrites,这将会在下一节中详细介绍。
