/** Automatic high-level RESTful client/server interface generation facilities.

	This modules aims to provide a typesafe way to deal with RESTful APIs. D's
	`interface`s are used to define the behavior of the API, so that they can
	be used transparently within the application. This module assumes that
	HTTP is used as the underlying transport for the REST API.

	While convenient means are provided for generating both, the server and the
	client side, of the API from a single interface definition, it is also
	possible to use as a pure client side implementation to target existing
	web APIs.

	The following paragraphs will explain in detail how the interface definition
	is mapped to the RESTful API, without going into specifics about the client
	or server side. Take a look at `registerRestInterface` and
	`RestInterfaceClient` for more information in those areas.

	These are the main adantages of using this module to define RESTful APIs
	over defining them manually by registering request handlers in a
	`URLRouter`:

	$(UL
		$(LI Automatic client generation: once the interface is defined, it can
			be used both by the client side and the server side, which means
			that there is no way to have a protocol mismatch between the two.)
		$(LI Automatic route generation for the server: one job of the REST
			module is to generate the HTTP routes/endpoints for the API.)
		$(LI Automatic serialization/deserialization: Instead of doing manual
	  		serialization and deserialization, just normal statically typed
	  		member functions are defined and the code generator takes care of
	  		converting to/from wire format. Custom serialization can be achieved
	  		by defining `JSON` or `string` parameters/return values together
	  		with the appropriate `@bodyParam` annotations.)
		$(LI Higher level representation integrated into D: Some concepts of the
	  		interfaces, such as optional parameters or `in`/`out`/`ref`
	  		parameters, as well as `Nullable!T`, are translated naturally to the
	  		RESTful protocol.)
	)

	The most basic interface that can be defined is as follows:
	----
	@path("/api/")
	interface APIRoot {
	    string get();
	}
	----

	This defines an API that has a single endpoint, 'GET /api/'. So if the
	server is found at http://api.example.com, performing a GET request to
	$(CODE http://api.example.com/api/) will call the `get()` method and send
	its return value verbatim as the response body.

	Endpoint_generation:
		An endpoint is a combination of an HTTP method and a local URI. For each
		public method of the interface, one endpoint is registered in the
		`URLRouter`.

		By default, the method and URI parts will be inferred from the method
		name by looking for a known prefix. For example, a method called
		`getFoo` will automatically be mapped to a 'GET /foo' request. The
		recognized prefixes are as follows:

		$(TABLE
			$(TR $(TH Prefix) $(TH HTTP verb))
			$(TR $(TD get)	  $(TD GET))
			$(TR $(TD query)  $(TD GET))
			$(TR $(TD set)    $(TD PUT))
			$(TR $(TD put)    $(TD PUT))
			$(TR $(TD update) $(TD PATCH))
			$(TR $(TD patch)  $(TD PATCH))
			$(TR $(TD add)    $(TD POST))
			$(TR $(TD create) $(TD POST))
			$(TR $(TD post)   $(TD POST))
		)

		Member functions that have no valid prefix default to 'POST'. Note that
		any of the methods defined in `vibe.http.common.HTTPMethod` are
		supported through manual endpoint specifications, as described in the
		next section.

		After determining the HTTP method, the rest of the method's name is
		then treated as the local URI of the endpoint. It is expected to be in
		standard D camel case style and will be transformed into the style that
		is specified in the call to `registerRestInterface`, which defaults to
		`MethodStyle.lowerUnderscored`.

	Manual_endpoint_specification:
		Endpoints can be controlled manually through the use of `@path` and
		`@method` annotations:

		----
		@path("/api/")
		interface APIRoot {
		    // Here we use a POST method
		    @method(HTTPMethod.POST)
			// Our method will located at '/api/foo'
			@path("/foo")
			void doSomething();
		}
		----

		Manual path annotations also allows defining custom path placeholders
		that will be mapped to function parameters. Placeholders are path
		segments that start with a colon:

		----
		@path("/users/")
		interface UsersAPI {
		    @path(":name")
		    Json getUserByName(string _name);
		}
		----

		This will cause a request "GET /users/peter" to be mapped to the
		`getUserByName` method, with the `_name` parameter receiving the string
		"peter". Note that the matching parameter must have an underscore
		prefixed so that it can be distinguished from normal form/query
		parameters.

		It is possible to partially rely on the default behavior and to only
		customize either the method or the path of the endpoint:

		----
		@method(HTTPMethod.POST)
		void getFoo();
		----

		In the above case, as 'POST' is set explicitly, the route would be
		'POST /foo'. On the other hand, if the declaration had been:

		----
		@path("/bar")
		void getFoo();
		----

		The route generated would be 'GET /bar'.

	Properties:
		`@property` functions have a special mapping: property getters (no
		parameters and a non-void return value) are mapped as GET functions,
		and property setters (a single parameter) are mapped as PUT. No prefix
		recognition or trimming will be done for properties.

	Method_style:
		Method names will be translated to the given 'MethodStyle'. The default
		style is `MethodStyle.lowerUnderscored`, so that a function named
		`getFooBar` will match the route 'GET /foo_bar'. See
		`vibe.web.common.MethodStyle` for more information about the available
		styles.

	Serialization:
		By default the return values of the interface methods are serialized
		as a JSON text and sent back to the REST client. To override this, you
		can use the @resultSerializer attribute

		---
		struct TestStruct {int i;}

		interface IService {
		@safe:
			@resultSerializer!(
				// output_stream implements OutputRange
				function (output_stream, test_struct) {
					output_stream ~= serializeToJsonString(test_struct);
				},
				// input_stream implements InputStream
				function (input_stream) {
					return deserializeJson!TestStruct(input_stream.readAllUTF8());
				},
				"application/json")()
			@resultSerializer!(
				// output_stream implements OutputRange
				function (output_stream, test_struct) {
					output_stream ~= test_struct.i.to!string();
				},
				// input_stream implements InputStream
				function (input_stream) {
					TestStruct test_struct;
					test_struct.i = input_stream.readAllUTF8().to!int();
					return test_struct;
				},
				"plain/text")()
			TestStruct getTest();
		}

		class Service : IService {
		@safe:
			TestStruct getTest() {
				TestStruct test_struct = {42};
				return test_struct;
			}
		}
		---

	Serialization_policies:
		You can customize the serialization of any type used by an interface
		by using serialization policies. The following example is using
		the `Base64ArrayPolicy`, which means if `X` contains any ubyte arrays,
		they will be serialized to their base64 encoding instead of
		their normal string representation (e.g. `"[1, 2, 255]"`).

		---
		@serializationPolicy!(Base64ArrayPolicy)
		interface ITestBase64
		{
			@safe X getTest();
		}
		---

	Parameters:
		Function parameters may be populated from the route, query string,
		request body, or headers. They may optionally affect the route URL itself.

		By default, parameters are passed differently depending on the type of
		request (i.e., HTTP method). For GET and PUT, parameters are passed
		via the query string (`<route>?paramA=valueA[?paramB=...]`),
		while for POST and PATCH, they are passed via the request body
		as a JSON object.

		The default behavior can be overridden using one of the following
		annotations, put as UDA on the relevant parameter:

		$(UL
			$(LI `@viaHeader("field")`: Will	source the parameter on which it is
				applied from the request headers named "field". If the parameter
				is `ref`, it will also be set as a response header. Parameters
				declared as `out` will $(I only) be set as a response header.)
			$(LI `@viaQuery("field")`: Will source the parameter on which it is
				applied from a field named "field" of the query string.)
			$(LI `@viaBody("field")`: Will source the parameter on which it is
				applied from a field named "field" of the request body
				in JSON format, or, if no field is passed, will represent the
				whole body. Note that in the later case, there can be no other
				`viaBody` parameters.)
		)

		----
		@path("/api/")
		interface APIRoot {
			// GET /api/header with 'Authorization' set
			string getHeader(@viaHeader("Authorization") string param);

			// GET /api/foo?param=...
			string getFoo(@viaQuery("param") int param);

			// GET /api/body with body set to { "myFoo": {...} }
			string getBody(@viaBody("parameter") FooType myFoo);

			// GET /api/full_body with body set to {...}
			string getFullBody(@viaBody() FooType myFoo);
		}
		----

		Further, how function parameters are named may affect the route:

		$(UL
			$(LI $(P Parameters with leading underscores (e.g. `_slug`) are also
				interpreted as a route component, but only in the presence of
				a `@path` UDA annotation. See Manual endpoint specification above.))
			$(LI $(P Other function parameters do not affect or come from the path
				 portion of the URL, and are are passed according to the default
				 rules above: query string for GET and PUT; request body JSON
				 for POST and PATCH.))
			$(LI $(P $(B Deprecated:) If the first parameter is named `id`, this is
				interpreted as a leading route component. For example,
				`getName(int id)` becomes `/:id/name`.)
				$(P Note that this style of parameter-based URL routing is
				different than in many other web frameworks, where instead
				this example would be routed as `/name/:id`.)
				$(P See `Collection` for the preferred way to represent object
				collections in REST interfaces))
		)


	Default_values:
		Parameters with default values behave as optional parameters. If one is
		set in the interface declaration of a method, the client can omit a
		value for the corresponding field in the request and the default value
		is used instead.

		Note that if default parameters are not evaluable by CTFE, compilation
		may fail due to DMD bug #14369 (Vibe.d tracking issue: #1043).

	Aggregates:
		When passing aggregates as parameters, those are serialized differently
		depending on the way they are passed, which may be especially important
		when interfacing with an existing RESTful API:

		$(UL
			$(LI If the parameter is passed via the headers or the query, either
				implicitly or explicitly, the aggregate is serialized to JSON.
				If the JSON representation is a single string, the string value
				will be used verbatim. Otherwise the JSON representation will be
				used)
			$(LI If the parameter is passed via the body, the datastructure is
				serialized to JSON and set as a field of the main JSON object
				that is expected in the request body. Its field name equals the
				parameter name, unless an explicit `@bodyParam` annotation is
				used.)
		)

/** Registers a server matching a certain REST interface.

	Servers are implementation of the D interface that defines the RESTful API.
	The methods of this class are invoked by the code that is generated for
	each endpoint of the API, with parameters and return values being translated
	according to the rules documented in the `vibe.web.rest` module
	documentation.

	A basic 'hello world' API can be defined as follows:
	----
	@path("/api/")
	interface APIRoot {
	    string get();
	}

	class API : APIRoot {
	    override string get() { return "Hello, World"; }
	}

	void main()
	{
	    // -- Where the magic happens --
	    router.registerRestInterface(new API());
	    // GET http://127.0.0.1:8080/api/ and 'Hello, World' will be replied
	    listenHTTP("127.0.0.1:8080", router);

	    runApplication();
	}
	----

	As can be seen here, the RESTful logic can be written inside the class
	without any concern for the actual HTTP representation.

	Return_value:
		By default, all methods that return a value send a 200 (OK) status code,
		or 204 if no value is being returned for the body.

	Non-success:
		In the cases where an error code should be signaled to the user, a
		`HTTPStatusException` can be thrown from within the method. It will be
		turned into a JSON object that has a `statusMessage` field with the
		exception message. In case of other exception types being thrown, the
		status code will be set to 500 (internal server error), the
		`statusMessage` field will again contain the exception's message, and,
		in debug mode, an additional `statusDebugMessage` field will be set to
		the complete string representation of the exception
		(`Exception.toString`), which usually contains a stack trace useful for
		debugging.

	Returning_data:
		To return data, it is possible to either use the return value, which
		will be sent as the response body, or individual `ref`/`out` parameters
		can be used. The way they are represented in the response can be
		customized by adding `@viaBody`/`@viaHeader` annotations on the
		parameter declaration of the method within the interface.

		In case of errors, any `@viaHeader` parameters are guaranteed to
		be set in the response, so that applications such as HTTP basic
		authentication can be implemented.

	Template_Params:
	    TImpl = Either an interface type, or a class that derives from an
			      interface. If the class derives from multiple interfaces,
	            the first one will be assumed to be the API description
	            and a warning will be issued.

	Params:
	    router   = The HTTP router on which the interface will be registered
	    instance = Server instance to use
	    settings = Additional settings, such as the `MethodStyle` or the prefix

	See_Also:
		`RestInterfaceClient` class for an automated way to generate the
		matching client-side implementation.

/**
	Models REST collection interfaces using natural D syntax.

	Use this type as the return value of a REST interface getter method/property
	to model a collection of objects. `opIndex` is used to make the individual
	entries accessible using the `[index]` syntax. Nested collections are
	supported.

	The interface `I` needs to define a struct named `CollectionIndices`. The
	members of this struct denote the types and names of the indexes that lead
	to a particular resource. If a collection is nested within another
	collection, the order of these members must match the nesting order
	(outermost first).

	The parameter list of all of `I`'s methods must begin with all but the last
	entry in `CollectionIndices`. Methods that also match the last entry will be
	considered methods of a collection item (`collection[index].method()`),
	wheres all other methods will be considered methods of the collection
	itself (`collection.method()`).

	The name of the index parameters affects the default path of a method's
	route. Normal parameter names will be subject to the same rules as usual
	routes (see `registerRestInterface`) and will be mapped to query or form
	parameters at the protocol level. Names starting with an underscore will
	instead be mapped to path placeholders. For example,
	`void getName(int __item_id)` will be mapped to a GET request to the
	path `":item_id/name"`.
