TRAFFIC OPS CRUD FRAMEWORK Dylan Volz TC Summit - Boxborough, MA
Routing basics The routes are compiled and registered with the base handler They are processed in the order they appear in the file Regexes are used for path matching Future considerations: Processing a list for regex matches may have performance implications
Middleware A set of optional request/response modifiers Headers (Access-Control-Allow-*, Whole-Content-SHA512) User Authorization (optionally applied based on the authentication field of the route) Capabilities (Future)
Handler Three main types currently: Proxy passthrough handler -> routes request to Mojolicious server We currently don t use the headers or authorization middleware since mojo handles it Standard handler -> accepts the request body and responds Needs to unmarshal the JSON body, collect the parameters and user info from the context, check tenancy, handle the request, changelog entry, build a response body and set the content type ping Generic CRUD handler -> Normalizes the steps above around a Create, Read, Update, or Delete operation on a struct.
Generic Handlers Implemented using interfaces Identifier Information about how to represent the struct Tenatable optional Validator Used to validate the request body after decoding CRUD interfaces Very similar code in each implementation Flexibility versus verbosity
Recent and future changes Id based -> definable key set Remove sqlx.DB from interface definitions Decouples implementation greater flexibility Replace type reference with singleton Removes concurrency bug on delete
