package RT::Client::REST::Object;

=head1 NAME

RT::Client::REST::Object -- base class for RT objects.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  # Create a new type
  package RT::Client::REST::MyType;

  use base qw(RT::Client::REST::Object);

  sub _attributes {{
    myattribute => {
      validation => {
        type => SCALAR,
      },
    },
  }}

  sub rt_type { "mytype" }

  1;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The RT::Client::REST::Object module is a superclass providing a whole
bunch of class and object methods in order to streamline the development
of RT's REST client interface.

=head1 ATTRIBUTES

Attributes are defined by method C<_attributes> that should be defined
in your class.  This method returns a reference to a hash whose keys are
the attributes.  The values of the hash are attribute settings, which are
as follows:

=over 2

=item list

If set to true, this is a list attribute.  See
L</LIST ATTRIBUTE PROPERTIES> below.

=item validation

A hash reference.  This is passed to validation routines when associated
mutator is called.  See L<Params::Validate> for reference.

=item rest_name

This specifies this attribute's REST name.  For example, attribute
"final_priority" corresponds to RT REST's "FinalPriority".  This option
may be omitted if the two only differ in first letter capitalization.

=item form2value

Convert form value (one that comes from the server) into attribute-digestible
format.

=item value2form

Convert value into REST form format.

=back

Example:

  sub _attributes {{
    id  => {
        validation  => {
            type    => SCALAR,
            regex   => qr/^\d+$/,
        },
        form2value  => sub {
            shift =~ m~^ticket/(\d+)$~i;
            return $1;
        },
        value2form  => sub {
            return 'ticket/' . shift;
        },
    },
    admin_cc        => {
        validation  => {
            type    => ARRAYREF,
        },
        list        => 1,
        rest_name   => 'AdminCc',
    },
  }}

=head1 LIST ATTRIBUTE PROPERTIES

List attributes have the following properties:

=over 2

=item *

When called as accessors, return a list of items

=item *

When called as mutators, only accept an array reference

=item *

Convenience methods "add_attr" and "delete_attr" are available.  For
example:

  # Get the list
  my @requestors = $ticket->requestors;

  # Replace with a new list
  $ticket->requestors( [qw(dude@localhost)] );

  # Add some random guys to the current list
  $ticket->add_requestors('randomguy@localhost', 'evil@local');

=back

=head1 SPECIAL ATTRIBUTES

B<id> and B<parent_id> are special attributes.  They are used by
various DB-related methods and are especially relied upon by
B<autostore>, B<autosync>, and B<autoget> features.

=head1 METHODS

=over 2

Constructor

    }

    my $self = bless {}, ref($class) || $class;
    my %opts = @_;

    my $id = delete($opts{id});
    if (defined($id)) {{
        $self->id($id);
        if ($self->can('parent_id')) {
            # If object can parent_id, we assume that it's needed for
            # retrieval.
            my $parent_id = delete($opts{parent_id});
            if (defined($parent_id)) {
                $self->parent_id($parent_id);
            } else {
                last;
            }
        }

            $self->retrieve;
        }
    }}

    while (my ($k, $v) = each(%opts)) {
        $self->$k($v);
    }

    return $self;
}

=item _generate_methods

This class method generates accessors and mutators based on
B<_attributes> method which your class should provide.  For items
that are lists, 'add_' and 'delete_' methods are created.  For instance,
the following two attributes specified in B<_attributes> will generate
methods 'creator', 'cc', 'add_cc', and 'delete_cc':

  creator => {
    validation => { type => SCALAR },
  },
  cc => {
    list => 1,
    validation => { type => ARRAYREF },
  },

=cut

    while (my ($method, $settings) = each(%$attributes)) {
        no strict 'refs';

                            );

=head1 DB METHODS

The following are methods that have to do with reading, creating, updating,
and searching objects.

=over 2

=item count

Takes the same arguments as C<search()> but returns the actual count of
the found items.  Throws the same exceptions.

=item retrieve

Retrieve object's attributes.  Note that 'id' attribute must be set for this
to work.

=item search (%opts)

This method is used for searching objects.  It returns an object of type
L<RT::Client::REST::SearchResult>, which can then be used to process
results.  C<%opts> is a list of key-value pairs, which are as follows:

=over 2

=item limits

This is a reference to array containing hash references with limits to
apply to the search (think SQL limits).

=item orderby

Specifies attribute to sort the result by (in ascending order).

=item reverseorder

If set to a true value, sorts by attribute specified by B<orderby> in
descending order.

=back

If the client cannot construct the query from the specified arguments,
or if the server cannot make it out,
C<RT::Client::REST::Object::InvalidSearchParametersException> is thrown.

=item store

Store the object.  If 'id' is set, this is an update; otherwise, a new
object is created and the 'id' attribute is set.  Note that only changed
(dirty) attributes are sent to the server.

=back

=head1 CLASS METHODS

=over 2

=item use_single_rt

This method takes a single argument -- L<RT::Client::REST> object
and makes this class use it for all instantiations.  For example:

  my $rt = RT::Client::REST->new(%args);

  # Make all tickets use this RT:
  RT::Client::REST::Ticket->use_single_rt($rt);

  # Now make all objects use it:
  RT::Client::REST::Object->use_single_rt($rt);

=cut

sub use_single_rt {
    my ($class, $rt) = @_;

    unless (UNIVERSAL::isa($rt, 'RT::Client::REST')) {
        RT::Client::REST::Object::InvalidValueException->throw;
    }

    no strict 'refs';
    no warnings 'redefine';
    *{(ref($class) || $class) . '::rt'} = sub { $rt };
}

=item use_autostore

Turn autostoring on and off.  Autostoring means that you do not have
to explicitly call C<store()> on an object - it will be called when
the object goes out of scope.

  # Autostore tickets:
  RT::Client::REST::Ticket->use_autostore(1);
  my $ticket = RT::Client::REST::Ticket->new(%opts)->retrieve;
  $ticket->priority(10);
  # Don't have to call store().

=cut

sub autostore {}

sub use_autostore {
    my ($class, $autostore) = @_;
    
    no strict 'refs';
    no warnings 'redefine';
    *{(ref($class) || $class) . '::autostore'} = sub { $autostore };
}

sub DESTROY {
    my $self = shift;

    $self->autostore && $self->can('store') && $self->store;
}

=item use_autoget

Turn autoget feature on or off (off by default).  When set to on,
C<retrieve()> will be automatically called from the constructor if
it is called with that object's special attributes (see
L</SPECIAL ATTRIBUTES> above).

  RT::Client::Ticket->use_autoget(1);
  my $ticket = RT::Client::Ticket->new(id => 1);
  # Now all attributes are available:
  my $subject = $ticket->subject;

=cut

sub autoget {}

sub use_autoget {
    my ($class, $autoget) = @_;
    
    no strict 'refs';
    no warnings 'redefine';
    *{(ref($class) || $class) . '::autoget'} = sub { $autoget };
}

=item use_autosync

Turn autosync feature on or off (off by default).  When set, every time
an attribute is changed, C<store()> method is invoked.  This may be pretty
expensive.

=cut

sub autosync {}

sub use_autosync {
    my ($class, $autosync) = @_;

    no strict 'refs';
    no warnings 'redefine';
    *{(ref($class) || $class) . '::autosync'} = sub { $autosync };
}

=item be_transparent

This turns on B<autosync> and B<autoget>.  Transparency is a neat idea,
but it may be expensive and slow.  Depending on your circumstances, you
may want a finer control of your objects.  Transparency makes
C<retrieve()> and C<store()> calls invisible:

  RT::Client::REST::Ticket->be_transparent($rt);

  my $ticket = RT::Client::REST::Ticket->new(id => $id); # retrieved
  $ticket->add_cc('you@localhost.localdomain'); # stored
  $ticket->status('stalled'); # stored
  
  # etc.

Do not forget to pass RT::Client::REST object to this method.

=cut

sub be_transparent {
    my ($class, $rt) = @_;
    $class->use_autosync(1);
    $class->use_autoget(1);
    $class->use_single_rt($rt);
}
