terraform Hex Build Status Phoenix compatibility

Terraform is a simple Plug designed to work with Phoenix. Terraform allows you to incrementally transform a HTTP API into one powered by Phoenix - one endpoint at a time.

View the demo Phoenix app.

Phoenix Compatibility

This package is explicitly tested against the following Phoenix versions:

Phoenix version Compatibility
~> 1.2.0
~> 1.3.0
~> 1.4.0
~> 1.5.0

Installation

Add terraform to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

def deps do
  [{:terraform, "~> 1.0.1"}]
end

Usage

First, add it to web/router.ex:

defmodule MyApp.Router do
  use Terraform, terraformer: MyApp.Terraformers.Foo

  # ...
end

Then, define a new Terraformer, which uses Plug.Router. Any request that goes to a route that isn't defined on your Phoenix app will hit this plug, and you can then handle it using a familiar DSL. Refer to hexdocs for documentation about Plug.Router.

Here's a basic example:

defmodule MyApp.Terraformers.Foo do
  alias MyApp.Clients.Foo # example client made with HTTPoison
  use Plug.Router

  plug :match
  plug :dispatch

  # match specific path
  get "/v1/hello-world", do: send_resp(conn, 200, "Hello world")

  # match all `get`s
  get _ do
    %{method: "GET", request_path: request_path, params: params, req_headers: req_headers} = conn
    res = Foo.get!(request_path, req_headers, [params: Map.to_list(params)])
    send_response({:ok, conn, res})
  end

  def send_response({:ok, conn, %{headers: headers, status_code: status_code, body: body}}) do
    conn = %{conn | resp_headers: headers}
    send_resp(conn, status_code, body)
  end
end

Reading the request body

Plug has an elegant solution to this problem using Plug.Conn.read_body. Refer to this comment for details.
