  7. Kitura - HTTP for Swift • Architected like Express.js •

    Written with Swift on Linux • Front-end templating • Persistence layer compatibility @dokun24
  8. Kitura 2.0 • KituraKit - for clients • A shiny

    new CLI • Codable routing @dokun24
  9. Kitura 1.x Parsing router.post("/animals") { request, response, next in defer

    { next() } guard let animalJSON = request["animal"] as? [String: AnyObject] else { response.send(json: JSON(["Error" : "Could not parse object"])) } let animal = Animal(json: animalJSON) if animal.save() { response.status(.ok).send(json: JSON(animalJSON)) } else { response.status(.badRequest) } } @dokun24
  10. Kitura 1.x Parsing init? (json: [String: AnyObject]) { if let

    animalID = json[AnimalJSONConstants.id] as? Int, let photoURL = json[AnimalJSONConstants.photoURL] as? String, let looksFriendly = json[AnimalJSONConstants.looksFriendly] as? Bool, let plural = json[AnimalJSONConstants.plural] as? Bool, let typeString = json[AnimalJSONConstants.type] as? String { self.animalID = animalID self.photoURL = photoURL self.looksFriendly = looksFriendly self.plural = plural self.type = typeString == AnimalConstants.bear ? AnimalType.Bear : AnimalType.Cat } else { return nil } } @dokun24
  11. Kitura 2.x Parsing @dokun24 router.post(“/animals”, handler: store) func store(animal: Animal,

    completion: (Animal?, RequestError?) -> Void) -> Void { if animal.save() { completion(animal, nil) } else { completion(nil, RequestError(httpCode: .400)) } }
  12. Codable Protocol • Responsible for encoding and decoding objects to

    another type, such as JSON • Sub-protocols: Encodable and Decodable @dokun24
  13. Codable Protocol • Responsible for encoding and decoding objects to

    another type, such as JSON • Sub-protocols: Encodable and Decodable • Forces an object to be ready-made for HTTP @dokun24
