Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Path Templating allow defining values based on information that will only be available within the HTTP message in an actual API call. This mechanism is used by Paths Object of OpenAPI specification.

openapi-path-templating is a parser, validator and resolver for OpenAPI Path Templating. It supports Path Templating defined in following OpenAPI specification versions:

Getting started

Installation

You can install openapi-path-templating using npm:

 $ npm install openapi-path-templating

Usage

openapi-path-templating currently supports parsing, validation and resolution. Both parser and validator are based on a superset of ABNF (SABNF) and use apg-lite parser generator.

Parsing

Parsing a Path Templating is as simple as importing the parse function and calling it.

import { parse } from 'openapi-path-templating';

const parseResult = parse('/pets/{petId}');
parseResult.result.success; // => true

parseResult variable has the following shape:

{
  result: {
    success: true,
    state: 101,
    stateName: 'MATCH',
    length: 13,
    matched: 13,
    maxMatched: 13,
    maxTreeDepth: 18,
    nodeHits: 324
  },
  ast: fnast {
    callbacks: [
      'path-template': [Function: pathTemplate],
      path: [Function: path],
      query: [Function: query],
      'query-marker': [Function: queryMarker],
      fragment: [Function: fragment],
      'fragment-marker': [Function: fragmentMarker],
      slash: [Function: slash],
      'path-literal': [Function: pathLiteral],
      'template-expression': [Function: templateExpression],
      'template-expression-param-name': [Function: templateExpressionParamName]
    ],
    init: [Function (anonymous)],
    ruleDefined: [Function (anonymous)],
    udtDefined: [Function (anonymous)],
    down: [Function (anonymous)],
    up: [Function (anonymous)],
    translate: [Function (anonymous)],
    setLength: [Function (anonymous)],
    getLength: [Function (anonymous)],
    toXml: [Function (anonymous)]
  }
}
Interpreting AST as list of entries
import { parse } from 'openapi-path-templating';

const parseResult = parse('/pets/{petId}');
const parts = [];

parseResult.ast.translate(parts);

After running the above code, parts variable has the following shape:

[
  [ 'path-template', '/pets/{petId}' ],
  [ 'path', '/pets/{petId}' ],
  [ 'slash', '/' ],
  [ 'path-literal', 'pets' ],
  [ 'slash', '/' ],
  [ 'template-expression', '{petId}' ],
  [ 'template-expression-param-name', 'petId' ]
]
Interpreting AST as XML
import { parse } from 'openapi-path-templating';

const parseResult = parse('/pets/{petId}');
const xml = parseResult.ast.toXml();

After running the above code, xml variable has the following content:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<root nodes="7" characters="13">
  <!-- input string -->
  /pets/{petId}
  <node name="path-template" index="0" length="13">
    /pets/{petId}
    <node name="path" index="0" length="13">
      /pets/{petId}
      <node name="slash" index="0" length="1">
        /
      </node><!-- name="slash" -->
      <node name="path-literal" index="1" length="4">
        pets
      </node><!-- name="path-literal" -->
      <node name="slash" index="5" length="1">
        /
      </node><!-- name="slash" -->
      <node name="template-expression" index="6" length="7">
        {petId}
        <node name="template-expression-param-name" index="7" length="5">
          petId
        </node><!-- name="template-expression-param-name" -->
      </node><!-- name="template-expression" -->
    </node><!-- name="path" -->
  </node><!-- name="path-template" -->
</root>

NOTE: AST can also be traversed in classical way using depth first traversal. For more information about this option please refer to apg-js and apg-js-examples.

Validation

Validating a Path Templating is as simple as importing the test function and calling it.

import { test } from 'openapi-path-templating';

test('/pets/{petId}'); // => true
test('/a{petId}'); // => true
test('/pets'); // => true
test('/pets', { strict: true }); // => false (doesn't contain any template-expression)

Resolution

Resolving a Path Templating is as simple as importing the resolve function and calling it.

import { resolve } from 'openapi-path-templating';

resolve('/pets/{petId}', { petId: 3 }); // => "/pets/3"

Resolved Path Templating is automatically encoded using encodeURIComponent function. It is possible to provide a custom encoder.

import { resolve } from 'openapi-path-templating';

resolve('/pets/{petId}', { petId: '/?#' }, {
  encoder: (component) => component, // no encoding
}); // => "/pets//?#"

Grammar

New grammar instance can be created in following way:

import { Grammar } from 'openapi-path-templating';

const grammar = new Grammar();

To obtain original ABNF (SABNF) grammar as a string:

import { Grammar } from 'openapi-path-templating';

const grammar = new Grammar();

grammar.toString();
// or
String(grammar);

More about OpenAPI Path Templating

The Path Templating is defined by the following ABNF syntax

; OpenAPI Path Templating ABNF syntax
path-template                  = path [ query-marker query ] [ fragment-marker fragment ]
path                           = slash *( path-segment slash ) [ path-segment ]
path-segment                   = 1*( path-literal / template-expression )
query                          = *( query-literal )
query-literal                  = 1*( unreserved / pct-encoded / sub-delims / ":" / "@" / "/" / "?" / "&" / "=" )
query-marker                   = "?"
fragment                       = *( fragment-literal )
fragment-literal               = 1*( unreserved / pct-encoded / sub-delims / ":" / "@" / "/" / "?" )
fragment-marker                = "#"

path-literal                   = 1*( unreserved / pct-encoded / sub-delims / ":" / "@" )
template-expression            = "{" template-expression-param-name "}"
template-expression-param-name = 1*( unreserved / pct-encoded / sub-delims / ":" / "@" )

                    / "*" / "+" / "," / ";" / "="
