APIJSON
A JSON Transmission Structure Protocal.
You can set any JSON structure and request your server, and the server will return a JSON String with the structure you had set like this:
Request:
{
"[]": { //request an array
"page": 1, //array condition
"count": 2,
"User": { //request an object from the table named User
"sex": 0 //object condition
},
"Work": {
"userId": “/User/id” //rely path with default parent path,starts from the same level object's path
},
"Comment[]": { //request an array named Comment
"page": 0,
"count": 3,
"Comment": {
"workId": “[]/Work/id” //full rely path
}
}
}
}

Compare with Previous HTTP Transmission Way
| Process | Previous way | APIJSON |
|---|---|---|
| Transmission | Server developers edit interfaces and update docs, then client developers request server and parse responses according to the docs | Client developers request server and parse responses for their requirements. No inteface! No doc! No communication for any interface or doc between client and server developers! |
| Compatibility | Server developers add new interfaces tagged with v2 and update docs | Nothing need to do! |
| Client request | Previous way | APIJSON |
|---|---|---|
| Requirement | Client developers append key-value pairs to an url for a request in docs | Client developers append JSON to the url for their requirements |
| Structure | base_url/lowercase_table_name?key0=value0&key1=value1... ¤tUserId=100¤tUserPassword=1234 The currentUserId and currentUserPassword is only for parts of interfaces |
base_url/{TableName0:{key0:value0, key1:value1 ...}, TableName1:{...}... , currentUserId:100, currentUserPassword:1234} The currentUserId and currentUserPassword is only for parts of interfaces |
| URL | Different urls for different methods(GET,POST...) or requirements | One url for one method(GET,POST...) |
| Key-Value Pair | key=value | key:value |
| Server operation | Previous way | APIJSON |
|---|---|---|
| Parse and response | Get key-value pairs and query the database with them by the default way, then encapsulate a JSON, finally return the JSON to client | Just return what RequestParser#parse returned |
| Way of setting JSON structure to return | Designed in server and cannot be modified by any client apps | Designed by client apps and cannot be modified by sever |
| Client parse | Previous way | APIJSON |
|---|---|---|
| View structure | Search docs or view logs after responses for requests | Just view the requests, and viewing logs after responses for requests is also supported |
| Operate | Parse JSON String from responses | Parse with JSONResponse or use previous way |
| Client requests for different requirements | Previous way | APIJSON |
|---|---|---|
| User | http://localhost:8080/user?id=1 | http://localhost:8080/{"User":{"id":1}} |
