## Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
```ruby
gem 'client-api'
```
And then execute:
```bash
$ bundle
```
Or install it yourself as:
```bash
$ gem install client-api
```
Import the library in your env file
```ruby
require 'client-api'
```
## #Usage outline
Add this config snippet in the `spec_helper.rb` file:
```ruby
ClientApi.configure do |config|
# all these configs are optional; comment out the config if not required
config.base_url = 'https://reqres.in'
config.headers = {'Content-Type' => 'application/json', 'Accept' => 'application/json'}
config.basic_auth = {'Username' => '[email protected]', 'Password' => 'myp@ssw0rd'}
config.json_output = {'Dirname' => './output', 'Filename' => 'test'}
config.time_out = 10 # in secs
config.logger = {'Dirname' => './logs', 'Filename' => 'test', 'StoreFilesCount' => 2}
# add this snippet only if the logger is enabled
config.before(:each) do |scenario|
ClientApi::Request.new(scenario)
end
end
```
Create `client-api` object with custom variable
```ruby
api = ClientApi::Api.new
```
RSpec test scenarios look like,
```ruby
it "GET request" do
api = ClientApi::Api.new
api.get('/api/users')
expect(api.status).to eq(200)
expect(api.code).to eq(200)
expect(api.message).to eq('OK')
end
it "POST request" do
api.post('/api/users', {"name": "prashanth sams"})
expect(api.status).to eq(201)
end
it "DELETE request" do
api.delete('/api/users/3')
expect(api.status).to eq(204)
end
it "PUT request" do
api.put('/api/users/2', {"data":{"email":"[email protected]","first_name":"Prashanth","last_name":"Sams"}})
expect(api.status).to eq(200)
end
it "PATCH request" do
api.patch('/api/users/2', {"data":{"email":"[email protected]","first_name":"Prashanth","last_name":"Sams"}})
expect(api.status).to eq(200)
end
# For exceptional cases with body in the GET/DELETE request
it "GET request with JSON body" do
api.get_with_body('/api/users', { "count": 2 })
expect(api.status).to eq(200)
end
it "DELETE request with JSON body" do
api.delete_with_body('/api/users', { "count": 2 })
expect(api.status).to eq(200)
end
# Customize URL query string as a filter
it "Custom URL query string" do
api.get(
{
:url => '/location?',
:query => {
'sort': 'name',
'fields[count]': '50',
'fields[path_prefix]': '6',
'filter[name]': 'Los Angels'
}
}
)
end
# For POST request with multi-form as body
it "POST request with multi-form as body" do
api.post('/api/upload',
payload(
'type' => 'multipart/form-data',
'data' => {
'file': './data/request/upload.png'
}
)
)
expect(api.code).to eq(200)
end
```
## Validation shortcuts
#### Default validation
> key features
- datatype validation
- key-pair value validation
- value size validation
- is value empty validation
- key exist or key not-exist validation
- single key-pair validation
- multi key-pair validation
> what to know?
- operator field is optional when `"operator": "=="`
- exception is handled for the invalid key (say, `key: 'post->0->name'`), if the `has_key` field is not added in the validation
General Syntax

Syntax | Model 4
Syntax | Model 5
Syntax | Model 6
validate(
api.body,
{
key: '',
operator: '',
value: '',
type: ''
}
)
validate(
api.body,
{
key: '',
size: 0
}
)
validate(
api.body,
{
key: '',
empty: true
}
)
validate(
api.body,
{
key: '',
has_key: true
}
)
validate(
api.body,
{
key: '',
operator: '',
value: '',
type: '',
size: 2,
empty: true,
has_key: false
}
)
validate(
api.body,
{
key: '',
type: ''
},
{
key: '',
operator: '',
value: ''
}
)
#### JSON response content validation
> key benefits
- the most recommended validation for fixed / static JSON responses
- validates each JSON content value
> what to know?
- replace `null` with `nil` in the expected json (whenever applicable); cos, ruby don't know what is `null`
General Syntax
Syntax | Model 2
validate_json(
{
"data":
{
"id": 2,
"first_name": "Prashanth",
"last_name": "Sams",
}
},
{
"data":
{
"id": 2,
"first_name": "Prashanth",
"last_name": "Sams",
}
}
)
validate_json(
api.body,
{
"data":
{
"id": 2,
"first_name": "Prashanth",
"last_name": "Sams",
"link": nil
}
}
)
#### JSON response sorting validation
> key benefits
- validates an array of response key-pair values with ascending or descending soring algorithm. For more details, check `sort_spec.rb`
General Syntax
Syntax | Model 2
validate_list(
api.body,
{
"key": "posts",
"unit": "id",
"sort": "ascending"
}
)
validate_list(
api.body,
{
"key": "posts",
"unit": "id",
"sort": "descending"
}
)
#### JSON response headers validation
> key benefits
- validates any response headers
General Syntax
Syntax | Model 2
validate_headers(
api.response_headers,
{
key: '',
operator: '',
value: ''
}
)
validate_headers(
api.response_headers,
{
key: "connection",
operator: "!=",
value: "open"
},{
key: "vary",
operator: "==",
value: "Origin, Accept-Encoding"
}
)
## #General usage
Using `json` template as body
```ruby
it "JSON template as body" do
api.post('/api/users', payload("./data/request/post.json"))
expect(api.status).to eq(201)
end
```
Add custom header
```ruby
it "GET request with custom header" do
api.get('/api/users', {'Content-Type' => 'application/json', 'Accept' => 'application/json'})
expect(api.status).to eq(200)
end
it "PATCH request with custom header" do
api.patch('/api/users/2', {"data":{"email":"[email protected]","first_name":"Prashanth","last_name":"Sams"}}, {'Content-Type' => 'application/json', 'Accept' => 'application/json'})
expect(api.status).to eq(200)
end
```
Full url support
```ruby
it "full url", :post do
api.post('https://api.enterprise.apigee.com/v1/organizations/ahamilton-eval',{},{'Authorization' => 'Basic YWhhbWlsdG9uQGFwaWdlZS5jb206bXlwYXNzdzByZAo'})
expect(api.status).to eq(403)
end
```
Basic Authentication
```ruby
ClientApi.configure do |config|
...
config.basic_auth = {'Username' => '[email protected]', 'Password' => 'myp@ssw0rd'}
end
```
Custom Timeout in secs
```ruby
ClientApi.configure do |config|
...
config.time_out = 10 # in secs
end
```
Output as `json` template
```ruby
ClientApi.configure do |config|
...
config.json_output = {'Dirname' => './output', 'Filename' => 'sample'}
end
```
## Logs
> Logs are optional in this library; you can do so through config in `spec_helper.rb`. The param,`StoreFilesCount` will keep the custom files as logs; you can remove it, if not needed.
```ruby
ClientApi.configure do |config|
...
config.logger = {'Dirname' => './logs', 'Filename' => 'test', 'StoreFilesCount' => 5}
config.before(:each) do |scenario|
ClientApi::Request.new(scenario)
end
end
```
