Different Impl

INITIALIZED! NOW WHAT?
def result = HttpBuilder.configure({
request.uri = 'http://serenity.ship'
})
.get()

})
.get()
Conﬁgure can access
request

})
.post({
request.uri.path = '/api'
response.success({})
})

})
.post({
})
Method may extend
request conﬁg

})
.post({
})
Method may extend
request conﬁg
Method may also hook
to response events

GREAT!
BUT LET’S SEETHE GOOD STUFF

HEADER PARSERS
if (headerName == 'Last-Modified') {
//Construct proper date pattern and parse
} else if (headerName == 'Age') {
//Parse long
} else if (headerName == 'Content-Disposition') {
//Parse and assemble map
}

HEADER PARSERS
Easily parse commonly used headers such as:

HEADER PARSERS
Allow -> CsvList

HEADER PARSERS
Last-Modified -> HttpDate
Allow -> CsvList

HEADER PARSERS
Last-Modified -> HttpDate
Allow -> CsvList
Cache-Control -> MapPairs

HEADER PARSERS
ZonedDateTime date = HttpBuilder.configure {
request.uri = 'https://google.com'
}
.head(ZonedDateTime) {
response.success { FromServer resp ->
resp.headers.find({ h ->
h.key == 'Date'
}).parse()
}
}

HEADER PARSERS
}
h.key == 'Date'
}).parse()
}
}
Declare return type

HEADER PARSERS
}
h.key == 'Date'
}).parse()
}
}
Declare return type
Find the relevant
header

HEADER PARSERS
}
h.key == 'Date'
}).parse()
}
}
Declare return type
Find the relevant
headerJust
call .parse()

CONTENT PARSERS
Auto parse response content according to type:

CONTENT PARSERS
HTML

CONTENT PARSERS
HTML
JSON

CONTENT PARSERS
HTML
JSON XML

CONTENT PARSERS
HTML
JSON
CSV
XML

CONTENT PARSERS
HTML
JSON
CSV
XML
Text

CONTENT PARSERS
Register custom parsers per content type!

CONTENT PARSERS
def inflated = HttpBuilder.configure {
request.uri = 'http://serenity.com/bundle.zip'
}
.get(String) {
response.parser('application/zip') { config, fromServer ->
def inflaterStream = new GZIPInputStream(fromServer.inputStream)
inflaterStream.getText('UTF-8')
}
}

CONTENT PARSERS
}
.get(String) {
}
}
call .parser()

CONTENT PARSERS
}
.get(String) {
}
}
call .parser()
Specify content
type

CONTENT PARSERS
}
.get(String) {
}
}
call .parser()
Specify content
type
Provide closure to
handle content

REQUEST INTERCEPTORS
Perform an operation on every response received

REQUEST INTERCEPTORS -
SINGLETYPE
HttpBuilder.conﬁgure {
request.uri = 'http://google.com'
execution.interceptor(GET) { cfg, fx ->
println "${cfg.request.uri.toURI()} was requested"
fx.apply(cfg)
}
}

SINGLETYPE
fx.apply(cfg)
}
}
Call interceptor

SINGLETYPE
fx.apply(cfg)
}
}
Call interceptor
Specify method

SINGLETYPE
fx.apply(cfg)
}
}
Call interceptor
Specify method Access conﬁg and
actual function

SINGLETYPE
fx.apply(cfg)
}
} Do the business

SINGLETYPE
fx.apply(cfg)
}
} Do the business
3. PROFIT

ANYTYPE
HttpBuilder.configure {
HttpVerb[] verbs = [GET, POST, PUT, DELETE]
execution.interceptor(verbs) { cfg, fx ->
fx.apply(cfg)
}
}

ANYTYPE
fx.apply(cfg)
}
}
Apply to multiple
methods

MODIFY RESPONSE
def result = fx.apply(cfg)
"magic:marker:${result}"
}
}

MODIFY RESPONSE
def result = fx.apply(cfg)
"magic:marker:${result}"
}
}
Modify the value!

REQUEST ENCODERS
Perform an operation on every request sent

REQUEST ENCODERS
{
"body": {},
"metadata": {
"clientId": "abcdef123456789"
}
}

REQUEST ENCODERS
request.uri = 'http://serenity.com/report'
request.encoder('application/json') { config, ToServer req ->
def w = "{"body":${config.request.body},"clientId": ”bla""
req.toServer(new ByteArrayInputStream(w.bytes))
}
}

REQUEST ENCODERS
}
}
call .encoder()

REQUEST ENCODERS
}
}
call .encoder() Specify content type

REQUEST ENCODERS
}
}
Modiﬁed content
back to the server
handle
