Following the discussion about the best way to make things simpler for
developing the REST api, I quote Lari's email:
"As many other endpoint will have the exact same usage, by looking at your example, I would prefer to avoid writing parameter / pagination / sorting / header handling for each list operation in our API controllers. Do you think it's possible to centralize all of this e.g. by passing $c into a customized search sub? Perhaps in Koha::Objects?
so instead we could have something like (ignore my bad choice of naming)...:
sub list_vendors {
my $c = shift->openapi->valid_input or return;
my $args = $c->validation->output;
my $vendors;
We all agreed we neeed something like that. Here's a possible implementation. I take
advantage of the previously written Mojo helpers, that are fully covered by tests.
I submit this early so anyone can take a look and gather ideas to make it even better.
I'm already using it (effectively) for the /acquisitions/orders endpoint I'm writing
on bug 18731.
Thanks!
