libpb

PocketBase wrapper with serializer/deserializer support

---

Example usage

Server initiation

Firstly we create a new PocketBase instance to manage our server:

PocketBase pb = new PocketBase("http://127.0.0.1:8090/api/");

Serialization

This is just to show off the serialization method serializeRecord(RecordType) which returns a JSONValue struct:

	import std.algorithm.searching : canFind;
	import std.string : cmp;
	
	struct Person
	{
		public string firstname, lastname;
		public int age;
		public string[] list;
		public JSONValue extraJSON;
	}

	Person p1;
	p1.firstname  = "Tristan";
	p1.lastname = "Kildaire";
	p1.age = 23;
	p1.list = ["1", "2", "3"];
	p1.extraJSON = parseJSON(`{"item":1, "items":[1,2,3]}`);

	JSONValue serialized = PocketBase.serializeRecord(p1);

	string[] keys = serialized.object().keys();
	assert(canFind(keys, "firstname") && cmp(serialized["firstname"].str(), "Tristan") == 0);
	assert(canFind(keys, "lastname") && cmp(serialized["lastname"].str(), "Kildaire") == 0);
	assert(canFind(keys, "age") && serialized["age"].integer() == 23);

Deserialization

This is to show off deserialization method fromJSON(RecordType)(JSONValue jsonIn) which returns a struct of type RecordType (so far most features are implemented):

	import std.string : cmp;
	
	struct Person
	{
		public string firstname, lastname;
		public int age;
		public bool isMale;
		public JSONValue obj;
		public int[] list;
	}
	
	JSONValue json = parseJSON(`{
"firstname" : "Tristan",
"lastname": "Kildaire",
"age": 23,
"obj" : {"bruh":1},
"isMale": true,
"list": [1,2,3]
}
`);

	Person person = PocketBase.fromJSON!(Person)(json);

	writeln(person);

	assert(cmp(person.firstname, "Tristan") == 0);
	assert(cmp(person.lastname, "Kildaire") == 0);
	assert(person.age == 23);
	assert(person.isMale == true);
	//TODO: object test case, list test case

Development

Unit tests

To run tests you will want to enable the pragmas and writelns. therefore pass the dbg flag in as such:

dub test -ddbg
