formatters: Pre-supplied formatting generators

In reqres: Powerful Classes for HTTP Requests and Responses

Pre-supplied formatting generators

Description

This set of functions can be used to construct formatting functions adhering to the Response$format() requirements.

Usage

format_json(
  dataframe = "rows",
  matrix = "rowmajor",
  Date = "ISO8601",
  POSIXt = "string",
  factor = "string",
  complex = "string",
  raw = "base64",
  null = "list",
  na = "null",
  auto_unbox = FALSE,
  digits = 4,
  pretty = FALSE,
  force = FALSE
)

format_plain(sep = "\n")

format_xml(encoding = "UTF-8", options = "as_xml")

format_html(encoding = "UTF-8", options = "as_html")

format_table(...)

Arguments

dataframe	how to encode data.frame objects: must be one of 'rows', 'columns' or 'values'
matrix	how to encode matrices and higher dimensional arrays: must be one of 'rowmajor' or 'columnmajor'.
Date	how to encode Date objects: must be one of 'ISO8601' or 'epoch'
POSIXt	how to encode POSIXt (datetime) objects: must be one of 'string', 'ISO8601', 'epoch' or 'mongo'
factor	how to encode factor objects: must be one of 'string' or 'integer'
complex	how to encode complex numbers: must be one of 'string' or 'list'
raw	how to encode raw objects: must be one of 'base64', 'hex' or 'mongo'
null	how to encode NULL values within a list: must be one of 'null' or 'list'
na	how to print NA values: must be one of 'null' or 'string'. Defaults are class specific
auto_unbox	automatically unbox() all atomic vectors of length 1. It is usually safer to avoid this and instead use the unbox() function to unbox individual elements. An exception is that objects of class AsIs (i.e. wrapped in I()) are not automatically unboxed. This is a way to mark single values as length-1 arrays.
digits	max number of decimal digits to print for numeric values. Use I() to specify significant digits. Use NA for max precision.
pretty	adds indentation whitespace to JSON output. Can be TRUE/FALSE or a number specifying the number of spaces to indent. See prettify()
force	unclass/skip objects of classes with no defined JSON mapping
sep	The line separator. Plain text will be split into multiple strings based on this.
encoding	The character encoding to use in the document. The default encoding is ‘UTF-8’. Available encodings are specified at http://xmlsoft.org/html/libxml-encoding.html#xmlCharEncoding.
options	default: ‘format’. Zero or more of format Format output no_declaration Drop the XML declaration no_empty_tags Remove empty tags no_xhtml Disable XHTML1 rules require_xhtml Force XHTML rules as_xml Force XML output as_html Force HTML output format_whitespace Format with non-significant whitespace
...	parameters passed on to write.table()

Examples

fake_rook <- fiery::fake_request(
  'http://example.com/test',
  content = '',
  headers = list(
    Content_Type = 'text/plain',
    Accept = 'application/json, text/csv'
  )
)

req <- Request$new(fake_rook)
res <- req$respond()
res$body <- mtcars
res$format(json = format_json(), csv = format_table(sep=','))
res$body

# Cleaning up connections
rm(fake_rook, req, res)
gc()
