GrapeResource

GrapeResource is opinionated resource generator for your Grape API mounted inside Rails.

By using GrapeResource, you could generate Grape endpoints just like rails generate scaffold controller. GrapeResource only generates API resource. You need to create a model by yourself.

1. Grape (mounted on Rails)
2. Grape Entity
3. Rspec

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'grape_resource'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install grape_resource

Initialize GrapeResource with command :

$ rails g grape_resource:install

Modify GrapeResource configuration inside config/initializers/grape_resource.rb

1. config.directory will be your endpoint directory. Default to : controllers/API/v1/
2. config.class_name_prefix will be your class name prefix for your endpoint. Default to : API::V1
3. config.entry_point_routes will be your entry point for your routes. Default to : # Routes entry point
4. config.success_formatter will be your success formatter. Default to : formatter :json, ::API::SuccessFormatter
5. config.error_formatter will be your error formatter. Default to : error_formatter :json, ::API::ErrorFormatter

To generate REST API :

$ rails g grape_resource:rest class_name

Example :

$ rails g grape_resource:rest article

This will give you :

1. GET /
2. GET /:id
3. POST /
4. PUT /:id
5. DELETE /:id

To generate namespaced API :

$ rails g grape_resource:namespace namespace api_endpoint1 api_endpoint2:method

Example :

$ rails g grape_resource:namespace article popular like:post similar:get:member trending:get:collection

While method is one of :

1. get (default)
2. post
3. put
4. delete

Command above will give you :

1. GET /namespace/api_endpoint1
2. METHOD /namespace/api_endpoint2

Endpoint generators above contains :

1. routes.rb This is your endpoint entry point. You could mount it to your main entry point
2. entities directory. It contains grape entity for your endpoint.
3. resources directory. It contains your endpoint.
4. spec directory. It contains rspec test for your endpoint.

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install.

To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.

You could use gem release.

1. Install gem release using command gem install gem-release.
2. Update version using command gem bump minor
3. Build gem using command gem build grape_resource.gemspec
4. Release gem using command gem release
