Generates documentation for your REST API from annotations
This is the result of https://github.com/nelmio/NelmioApiDocBundle/issues/410. This PR aims to provide a uniform way of declaring data-types of parameters for parsers and handlers to follow. In turn, this would allow formatters to determine data-types in a cleaner and less volatile manner. (See use-case that can be improved with this PR: https://github.com/nelmio/NelmioApiDocBundle/blob/master/Formatter/AbstractFormatter.php#L103) This is possible by the addition two properties to each property item in `response`, and `parameters` fields in each API endpoint produced by the `ApiDocExtractor`: * `actualType` Contains a value from one of the `DataTypes` class constants. * `subType` Can contain either `null`, or any other `DataTypes` class constant. This is relevant when the `actualType` is a `DataTypes::COLLECTION`, wherein `subType` would specify the type of the collection items. It is also relevant when `actualType` is a `DataTypes::MODEL`, wherein `subType` would contain an identifier of the model (the FQCN or anything the parser would wish to specify) Examples: ```php array( 'id' => array( 'dataType' => 'integer', 'actualType' => DataTypes::INTEGER, 'subType' => null, ), 'profile' => array( 'dataType' => 'object (Profile)', 'actualType' => DataTypes::MODEL, 'subType' => 'Foo\Entity\Profile', 'children' => array( 'name' => array( 'dataType' => 'string', 'actualType' => DataTypes::STRING, 'subType' => null, ), 'birthDate' => array( 'dataType' => 'date', 'actualType' => DataTypes::DATE, 'subType' => null, ), ) ), 'languages' => array( 'dataType' => 'array of strings', 'actualType' => DataTypes::COLLECTION, 'subType' => DataTypes::STRING, ), 'roles' => array( 'dataType' => 'array of choices', 'actualType' => DataTypes::COLLECTION, 'subType' => DataTypes::ENUM, ), 'groups' => array( 'dataType' => 'array of objects (Group)', 'actualType' => DataTypes::COLLECTION, 'subType' => 'Foo\Entity\Group', ), 'profileRevisions' => array( 'dataType' => 'array of objects (Profile)', 'actualType' => DataTypes::COLLECTION, 'subType' => 'Foo\Entity\Profile', ), 'address' => array( 'dataType' => 'object (a_type_a_custom_JMS_serializer_handler_handles)', 'actualType' => DataTypes::MODEL, 'subType' => 'a_type_a_custom_JMS_serializer_handler_handles', ), ); ``` When a formatter omits the `dataType` property or leaves it blank, it is inferred within `ApiDocExtractor` before everything is passed to formatters. |
