Detailed Description

This class handles the API-specific requests and dispatches them to the correct AbstractAPISerice implementation.

Services are registered using registerService(). To see the default services used, see the RequestHandler::RequestHandler constructor.

Definition at line 32 of file APIController.hpp.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

APIController::APIController	(	int	prefixLength,
		QObject *	parent = 0
	)

Constructs an APIController.

Parameters

prefixLength	Determines how many characters to strip from the front of the request path
parent	passed on to QObject constructor

Member Function Documentation

void APIController::registerService

(

AbstractAPIService *

service

)

Registers a service with the APIController.

The AbstractAPIService::serviceName() determines the request path of the service.

virtual void APIController::service ( HttpRequest &  request, HttpResponse &  response  )

virtual

Handles an API-specific request.

It finds out which AbstractAPIService to use depending on the service name (first part of path until slash). An error is returned for invalid requests. If a service was found, the request is passed on to its AbstractAPIService::get or AbstractAPIService::post method depending on the HTTP request type. If AbstractAPIService::supportsThreadedOperation is false, these methods are called in the Stellarium main thread using QMetaObject::invokeMethod, otherwise they are directly executed in the current thread (HTTP worker thread).

Reimplemented from HttpRequestHandler.

void APIController::update

(

double

deltaTime

)

Should be called each frame from the main thread, like from StelModule::update.

Passed on to each AbstractAPIService::update method for optional processing.
