# kwai-jsonapi
![Latest Stable Version](http://poser.pugx.org/kwai/jsonapi/v)
![PHP Version Require](http://poser.pugx.org/kwai/jsonapi/require/php)

A JSON:API serializer for PHP classes using PHP attributes.

> Currently, this library has no support for [links](https://jsonapi.org/format/#document-links).

## Installation

````
composer require kwai/jsonapi
````

## Requirements
PHP attributes are used to serialize a PHP class to a JSONAPI resource. So, the
PHP version must be at least 8.0. There are no other external dependencies.

## Documentation

### #[JSONAPI/Resource]
The "JSONAPI/Resource" attribute is used to set the type of the resource.

+ The type argument is required.
+ This attribute can only be applied to a class.
+ By default, the id is retrieved from the id property. Use the id argument to
use a method or a property with another name.

````php
use Kwai\JSONAPI;

#[JSONAPI/Resource(type: 'people')]
class Person
{
public function __construct(
// We need at least an id property.
private string $id,
)
}
````

### #[JSONAPI/Attribute]
The "JSONAPI/Attribute" attribute is used to set an attribute of a resource.

+ This attribute can be applied to a property or a method of a class.
+ The name argument can be used to give a name to the property.
+ When applied to a method, the name argument is required.

````php
use Kwai\JSONAPI;

#[JSONAPI/Resource(type: 'people')]
class Person
{
public function __construct(
private string $id,
#[JSONAPI/Attribute]
private string $name,
private int $age,
) {
}

#[JSONAPI/Attribute(name: 'age')]
public function getAge(): int
{
return $this->age;
}
}
````
Properties may be private. A method must be public.

With a Person instance like this:

````php
$person = new Person(
id: '1',
name: 'Jigoro Kano',
age: 77,
);
````
The result will be:

````json
{
"data": {
"type": "people",
"id": "1",
"attributes": {
"name": "Jigoro Kano",
"age": 77
}
}
}
````

### #[JSONAPI/Relationship]
The "JSONAPI/Relationship" is used to map a relationship.

+ This attribute can be applied to a property or a method.
+ The name argument can be used to give a name to the relationship.
+ When no name argument is set for a property, the name of the property will be used.
+ When applied to a method, the name argument is required.

````php
#[JSONAPI\Resource(type:'athletes')]
class Athlete
{
public function __construct(
private string $id,
#[JSONAPI\Attribute]
private string $name,
#[JSONAPI\Relationship]
private Country $country,
) {
}
}
````
Properties may be private. A method must be public.

The linked resource must contain a JSONAPI\Resource attribute. If not, a
JSONAPI\Exception will be thrown. A relationship can also be an array.

With the given PHP code:

````php
$country = new Country(
id: '1',
code: 'BEL',
);
$athlete = new Athlete(
id: '1',
name: 'Ingrid Berghmans',
country: $country
)
````

The result of the serializing will be:

````json
{
"data": {
"type": "athletes",
"id": "1",
"attributes": {
"name": "Ingrid Berghmans"
},
"relationships": {
"country": {
"data": {
"type": "countries",
"id": "1"
}
}
}
},
"included": [
{
"type": "countries",
"id": "1",
"attributes": {
"code": "BEL"
}
}
]
}
````

### Serializing
The JSONAPI\Document class is used to serialize an object or an array to a
JSON:API structure.

````php
use Kwai\JSONAPI;

$person = new Person(
id: '1',
name: 'Jigoro Kano',
age: 77,
);

try {
$jsonapi = JSONAPI\Document::createFromObject($person)->serialize();
// Send $jsonapi to the client...
} catch (JSONAPI\Exception $e) {
// An exception occurred while serializing the PHP object.
}
````

### Meta
Meta information can be set with the setMeta method.

````php
try {
$jsonapi =
JSONAPI\Document::createFromObject($person)
->setMeta('count', 1)
->serialize();
} catch (JSONAPI\Exception $e) {
// Handle exception...
}
````
