This patch adds plugins the capability of injecting new routes on the
API.
The plugins should provide the following methods to be considered valid API-generating plugins:
- 'api_routes': returning the 'path' component of the OpenAPI specification corresponding to the routes served by the plugin
- 'api_namespace': it should return a namespace to be used for grouping the endpoints provided by the plugin
otherwise, they will be just skipped.
All plugin-generated routes will be added the 'contrib' namespace, and
will end up placed inside /contrib/<namespace>, where <namespace> is what the 'api_namespace' returns.
A sample endpoint will be added to the Kitchen Sink plugin, and tests
are being written.
To test:
- Apply this patches
- Run:
$ kshell
k$ prove t/db_dependent/Koha/REST/Plugin/PluginRoutes.t
=> SUCCESS: Tests pass!
- Install the (latest) KitchenSink plugin
- Point your browser to the API like this:
http://koha-intra.myDNSname.org:8081/api/v1/.html
=> SUCCESS: The /contrib/kitchensink/patrons/:patron_id/bother endpoint
implemented by the plugin has been merged!
- Sign off! :-D
