Description
Follow up of #3918.
When building the doc or dumping the schema, API-Platform does a lot of work to translate the known type of a property into the format we dump it into. For example:
DateTimeInterface ->
[
'type' => 'string',
'format' => 'date-time',
]
'int' ->
[
'type' => number,
]
Trying to solve #3918 in a more correct way, I'm running into two limitations:
- PropertyInfo is quite limited regarding the support of generics and union types; There is [PropertyInfo] Support multiple types (union types) for collection values symfony/symfony#38093 for partially addressing this
- When it comes to translate an object type, API-Platform is entirely closed with support of a very limited set of objects*
*The current (2.5.9) set supported (for JsonSchema):
DateTimeInterfaceDateIntervalRamsey\Uuid\UuidInterface- resource class
- others: try to build a schema out of it
The first limitation needs to first be addressed in PropertyInfo so there is no direct actionable right now. However for the second one, IMO there should be an extension point to allow one to hook in their own type resolver. I would avoid a inheritance hell there so I would like to suggest to introduce a new interface:
interface ClassTypeResolver
{
/**
* Gets the JSON Schema document which specifies the data type corresponding to the given PHP
* class, and recursively adds needed new schema to the current schema if provided.
*
* @param class-string|null $className
*
* @return array{type: "string"}|array{type: string, format: string}|array{$ref: mixed}
*/
public function getClassType(
?string $className,
string $format,
?bool $readableLink,
?array $serializerContext,
?Schema $schema,
?SchemaFactoryInterface $schemaFactory
): array;
}From there the TypeFactory can be rewritten:
TypeFactory.php
final class TypeFactory implements TypeFactoryInterface
{
use ResourceClassInfoTrait;
/**
* @var SchemaFactoryInterface|null
*/
private $schemaFactory;
/**
* @var ClassTypeResolver
*/
private ClassTypeResolver $typeResolver;
public function __construct(
ResourceClassResolverInterface $resourceClassResolver = null,
// We inject the type resolver as a service
ClassTypeResolver $typeResolver = null
)
{
$this->resourceClassResolver = $resourceClassResolver;
// I don't get why everything is nullable here but so be it
$this->typeResolver = $typeResolver ?? new ApiPlatformCoreClassTypeResolver($resourceClassResolver);
}
// ...
private function makeBasicType(Type $type, string $format = 'json', ?bool $readableLink = null, ?array $serializerContext = null, Schema $schema = null): array
{
switch ($type->getBuiltinType()) {
case Type::BUILTIN_TYPE_INT:
return ['type' => 'integer'];
case Type::BUILTIN_TYPE_FLOAT:
return ['type' => 'number'];
case Type::BUILTIN_TYPE_BOOL:
return ['type' => 'boolean'];
case Type::BUILTIN_TYPE_OBJECT:
// This is the changed code
return $this->typeResolver->getClassType($type->getClassName(), $format, $readableLink, $serializerContext, $schema, $this->schemaFactory);
default:
return ['type' => 'string'];
}
}
// ...
}And the existing type resolution extracted:
ApiPlatformCoreClassTypeResolver.php
final class ApiPlatformCoreClassTypeResolver implements ClassTypeResolver
{
use ResourceClassInfoTrait;
public function __construct(ResourceClassResolverInterface $resourceClassResolver = null)
{
$this->resourceClassResolver = $resourceClassResolver;
}
public function getClassType(
?string $className,
string $format,
?bool $readableLink,
?array $serializerContext,
?Schema $schema,
?SchemaFactoryInterface $schemaFactory
): array {
if (null === $className) {
return ['type' => 'string'];
}
if (is_a($className, \DateTimeInterface::class, true)) {
return [
'type' => 'string',
'format' => 'date-time',
];
}
if (is_a($className, \DateInterval::class, true)) {
return [
'type' => 'string',
'format' => 'duration',
];
}
if (is_a($className, UuidInterface::class, true)) {
return [
'type' => 'string',
'format' => 'uuid',
];
}
// Skip if $schema is null (filters only support basic types)
if (null === $schema) {
return ['type' => 'string'];
}
if ($this->isResourceClass($className) && true !== $readableLink) {
return [
'type' => 'string',
'format' => 'iri-reference',
];
}
$version = $schema->getVersion();
$subSchema = new Schema($version);
$subSchema->setDefinitions($schema->getDefinitions()); // Populate definitions of the main schema
if (null === $schemaFactory) {
throw new \LogicException('The schema factory must be injected by calling the "setSchemaFactory" method.');
}
$subSchema = $schemaFactory->buildSchema($className, $format, Schema::TYPE_OUTPUT, null, null, $subSchema, $serializerContext);
return ['$ref' => $subSchema['$ref']];
}
}From there it is easy to hook your own type resolver, e.g. mine:
IdClassTypeResolver
final class IdClassTypeResolver implements ClassTypeResolver
{
private ClassTypeResolver $decoratedClassTypeResolver;
public function __construct(ClassTypeResolver $decoratedClassTypeResolver)
{
$this->decoratedClassTypeResolver = $decoratedClassTypeResolver;
}
public function getClassType(
?string $className,
string $format,
?bool $readableLink,
?array $serializerContext,
?Schema $schema,
?SchemaFactoryInterface $schemaFactory
): array {
if (null === $className) {
return $this->decoratedClassTypeResolver->getClassType(
$className,
$format,
$readableLink,
$serializerContext,
$schema,
$schemaFactory,
);
}
if (is_a($className, IntId::class, true)) {
return [
'type' => 'number',
];
}
if (is_a($className, UuidId::class, true)) {
return [
'type' => 'string',
'format' => 'uuid',
];
}
if (is_a($className, StringId::class, true)) {
return [
'type' => 'string',
'format' => 'string',
];
}
if (is_a($className, Id::class, true)) {
return [
'type' => 'string',
'format' => 'string',
];
}
return $this->decoratedClassTypeResolver->getClassType(
$className,
$format,
$readableLink,
$serializerContext,
$schema,
$schemaFactory,
);
}
}Note that I did this only for the JsonSchema and not 100% sure of the implications for the other one.
WDYT?
