# spark-decorator

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/luanpotter/spark-decorator.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/luanpotter/spark-decorator) [![Coverage Status](https://coveralls.io/repos/github/luanpotter/spark-decorator/badge.svg?branch=master)](https://coveralls.io/github/luanpotter/spark-decorator?branch=master)

Simple and pretty decorators for your routes.

Want some routes to have auth, but some don't? Or base it off a parameter?

Spark's `before` and `after` work great if the distinction your are making is by path. But what if it's not? Maybe some users can GET but cannot POST on the same route.

This libs helps you to decorate your routes in order to add custom behaviour to a selection of them, without duplication and hassles.

You can hook `before` and `after` filters and do anything you want!

## Install

Of course you must have Spark, we include it as provided (version 2.7.2).

Then, add to your `pom.xml`:

```xml

xyz.luan.spark.decorator
spark-decorator
0.2.0

```

Or, if you are using gradle:

```groovy
compile 'xyz.luan.spark.decorator:spark-decorator:0.2.0'
```

## Usage

You can do a plethora of things using this, basically anything you would do in a before or after filter.

For example, let's add a secret header to some of our routes; create a `RouteDecorator` instance with a singleton instance (this is to follow Spark's convention and is optional).

```java
public class AfterDecorator extends RouteDecorator {
public static final AfterDecorator secretPanda = new AfterDecorator();

private AfterDecorator() {
}

@Override
protected Route after() {
return (req, resp) -> {
resp.header("secret", "panda");
return null;
};
}
}
```

Now, in your controller/application, instead of
```java
get("foo", (req, resp) -> "bar");
```

You do:

```java
secretPanda.get("/foo", (req, resp) -> "bar");
```

And your request has been enriched. You'd of course statically import `get` from `Spark`, and now also statically import `secretPanda` from your class.

Pretty neat, hum? Let's see a more complex example now!

## Auth Example

Assume each route might or might not require auth, and the ones that require auth require a specific role to access. You could create a decorator like so:

```java
public class AuthDecorator extends RouteDecorator {

public static AuthDecorator requiresRole(String role) {
return new AuthDecorator(role);
}

private String requiredRole;

private AuthDecorator(String requiredRole) {
this.requiredRole = requiredRole;
}

@Override
protected Route before() {
return (req, resp) -> {
String auth = req.header("Auth");
if (auth == null) {
if (requiredRole == null) {
return null; // ok
}
throw halt(401, "You must be authenticated to access.");
}
String role = getProfile(auth).getRole();
if (!role.equals(requiredRole)) {
throw halt(403, "You must be role " + requiredRole + " to access.");
}
return null;
};
}
}
```

Then, you can use it like so:

```java
get("/foo", (req, resp) -> "bar");
requiresRole("user").post("/foo", (req, resp) -> "ok");
requiresRole("admin").delete("/foo", (req, resp) -> "deleted");
```
