Service Proxy

Service Proxy is a library that provides functionality to manage technical code over a class:

• Transactional context
• Security access
• Cache management
• Events
• Logs (not implemented yet)

Installation

The easiest way to install ServiceProxy is via composer.

Create the following composer.json file and run the php composer.phar install command to install it.

Concepts

Interceptors

Interceptors are used as decorators to react to the method execution. for example using @Cache annotation, is a condition to enable the cache interceptor.

There is two types of interceptors:

Prefix interceptors :

Interceptors that are called before the method execution, they must implement OpenClassrooms\ServiceProxy\Interceptor\Contract\PrefixInterceptor Three methods are called:

• prefix : called before the method execution. Should return instance of OpenClassrooms\ServiceProxy\Interceptor\Response\Response.
• supportsPrefix : called to know if the interceptor should be called, for example in the case of the cache interceptor, it will check that the method has the @Cache annotation.
• getPrefixPriority : called to know the priority of the interceptor, the higher the priority, the earlier the interceptor will be called.

Suffix interceptors :

Interceptors that are called after the method execution, even if an exception is thrown, they must implement OpenClassrooms\ServiceProxy\Interceptor\Contract\SuffixInterceptor Three methods are called:

• suffix : called after the method execution even if an exception is thrown. should return instance of OpenClassrooms\ServiceProxy\Interceptor\Response\Response.
• supportsSuffix : called to know if the interceptor should be called, for example in the case of the cache interceptor, it will check that the method has the @Cache annotation.
• getSuffixPriority : called to know the priority of the interceptor, the higher the priority, the earlier the interceptor will be called.

Handling exceptions

If you want to react to an exception thrown by the method, you can check for the exception in the suffix interceptor.

• To check $instance->method()->threwException()
• To get the exception (null if no exception was thrown) $instance->method()->getException()
• To get the return value (null in case of an exception) $instance->method()->getReturnValue()

Early return

• If a prefix interceptor returns a response with early return parameter set to true ex: Response($data, true), the method won't be executed and the suffix interceptors won't be called.
• If a suffix interceptor returns a response with early return parameter set to true, the exception won't be thrown, in the case of a method that throws an exception.

You can create your own interceptors, or use the built-in ones:

Handlers

Handlers are used by interceptors to manage the infrastructure code. To be able to use built-in interceptors, you need to implement the built-in handlers contracts.

• All handles need to implement OpenClassrooms\ServiceProxy\Handler\Contract\AnnotationHandler.
• Each handler must have a unique name, you can use the getName method to return it.
• Each handler must return true if it's the default handler or false if not, you can use the isDefault method to return it.
• You can't have two handlers with the same name by annotation.
• You can have only one default handler, by annotation.
• If you have only one handler by annotation, it will be the default one.

Usage

Instantiation

Symfony

Check out the ServiceProxyBundle. The bundle provides an easy configuration option for this library.

Manual

Example

First implement the handlers

Then you can inject the handlers into the interceptors:

Built-in interceptors

• Cache
• Event
• Security
• Transaction
