arc-definitions
Request / response headers and status codes definitions database used in Adavanced REST Client and API Console.
The <arc-definitions>
element listens for query events. Other elements can dispatch the query-headers
and query-status-codes
events that are handled by this element. Events are stopped from propagation. Handled event receives new property on the detail
object with the query result.
Usage
Dispatching query events
Querying for headers data
Each header definition item has the following properties:
key
- String, The name of the headerdesc
- String, The documentation for the headerexample
- String, Example value of the headerautocomplete
- Array of String, list of possible/example values for autocomplete functions. This property is not available for response headers.
{
"key": "Accept-Charset",
"desc": "Character sets that are acceptable",
"example": "Accept-Charset: utf-8",
"autocomplete": ["utf-8"]
}
To query for the headers data dispatch query-headers
event:
const e = new CustomEvent('query-headers', {
detail: {
type: 'request', // or "response"
query: 'Acce'
},
bubbles: true,
cancelable: true
});
document.body.dispatchEvent(e);
console.log(event.defaultPrevented); // true
const headers = event.detail.headers; // Array[...]
or use imperative API:
const data = document.querySelector('arc-definitions').queryHeaders('A', 'response');
console.log(data); // list of headers with "A" in the name
Querying for status code data
Status code definition item has the following properties:
key
- Number, Code valuedesc
- String, The documentation for the status codelabel
- String, Status label associated with the code
{
"key": 101,
"label": "Switching Protocols",
"desc":"This means the requester has asked the server to switch protocols and the server is acknowledging that it will do so"
}
To query for the status code definition dispatch query-status-codes
event:
const e = new CustomEvent('query-status-codes', {
detail: {
code: 200
},
bubbles: true,
cancelable: true
});
document.body.dispatchEvent(e);
console.log(event.defaultPrevented); // true
const statusCode = event.detail.statusCode; // {...}
or use imperative API:
const status = document.querySelector('arc-definitions').getStatusCode(201);
console.log(status); // Status code definition for 201
