前面几篇讨论了关于gRPC方式的前后端连接集成方式。gRPC也是一个开放的标准,但讲到普及性就远远不及基于http/1.1协议的web-service了。特别是gRPC的前端编程还是有一定的门槛,所以作为一种开放的网络大平台还是必须考虑用web-service方式的集成。平台服务api可以有两样选择:一种是传统web-service方式,新的一种是rest api款式。rest api比较适合数据库表的crud操作。在2017年我曾经写了一系列博客介绍akka-http,这里就不再叙述它的细节了。这篇我们只聚焦在解决当前问题上。在POS控制平台例子里不会涉及到POST操作,应该全部是GET类型的,如:
http://192.168.11.189:2588/pos/logon?opr=1010
http://192.168.11.189:2588/pos/logoff
http://192.168.11.189:2588/pos/logsales?acct=001&dpt=01&code=978111&qty=3&price=1200
http://192.168.11.189:2588/pos/subtotal?level=0
http://192.168.11.189:2588/pos/discount?disctype=2&grouped=true&code=481&percent=20
可以看到,请求部分只是带参数的uri,不含entity数据部分,数据通过querystring提供。但返回会有几种数据类型:POSResponse,TxnsItems,vchState,这些都曾经在Protobuffer用IDL定义过:
message PBVchState { //单据状态
string opr = 1; //收款员
int64 jseq = 2; //begin journal sequence for read-side replay
int32 num = 3; //当前单号
int32 seq = 4; //当前序号
bool void = 5; //取消模式
bool refd = 6; //退款模式
bool susp = 7; //挂单
bool canc = 8; //废单
bool due = 9; //当前余额
string su = 10; //主管编号
string mbr = 11; //会员号
int32 mode = 12; //当前操作流程:0=logOff, 1=LogOn, 2=Payment
}
message PBTxnItem { //交易记录
string txndate = 1; //交易日期
string txntime = 2; //录入时间
string opr = 3; //操作员
int32 num = 4; //销售单号
int32 seq = 5; //交易序号
int32 txntype = 6; //交易类型
int32 salestype = 7; //销售类型
int32 qty = 8; //交易数量
int32 price = 9; //单价(分)
int32 amount = 10; //码洋(分)
int32 disc = 11; //折扣率 (%)
int32 dscamt = 12; //折扣额:负值 net实洋 = amount + dscamt
string member = 13; //会员卡号
string code = 14; //编号(商品、卡号...)
string acct = 15; //账号
string dpt = 16; //部类
}
message PBPOSResponse {
int32 sts = 1;
string msg = 2;
PBVchState voucher = 3;
repeated PBTxnItem txnitems = 4;
}
那么概括我们现在的主要工作包括:Uri解析,HttpResponse实例的构建和传输。
首先,用akka-http搭建一个http server框架:
import akka.actor._
import akka.stream._
import akka.http.scaladsl.Http
import akka.http.scaladsl.server.Directives._
object HttpServerDemo extends App {
implicit val httpSys = ActorSystem("httpSystem")
implicit val httpMat = ActorMaterializer()
implicit val httpEC = httpSys.dispatcher
val route =
path("hello") {
complete {"hello, http server "}
}
val (port, host) = (8011,"192.168.11.189")
val bindingFuture = Http().bindAndHandle(route,host,port)
println(s"Server running at $host $port. Press any key to exit ...")
scala.io.StdIn.readLine()
bindingFuture.flatMap(_.unbind())
.onComplete(_ => httpSys.terminate())
/*
bindingFuture.foreach(s => println(s.localAddress.getHostString))
bindingFuture.foreach(_.unbind())
bindingFuture.onComplete {
case Success(value) => value.unbind()
}
*/
}
用akka-http的server api很快就完成了一个简单的http-server。下一步研究一下如何构建返回的HttpResponse:httpresponse是从server端传送到client端的。这个过程包括把HttpResponse Entity里的数据从某种类型转换成通讯用的二进制数据流、到了客户端再转换成目标类型。akka-http的数据转换机制Marshaller/Unmarshaller是通过类型转换的隐式实例来实现的,akka-http提供了多个标准类型数据转换的隐式实例,如StringMarshaller:
implicit val ByteArrayMarshaller: ToEntityMarshaller[Array[Byte]] = byteArrayMarshaller(`application/octet-stream`)
def byteArrayMarshaller(contentType: ContentType): ToEntityMarshaller[Array[Byte]] =
Marshaller.withFixedContentType(contentType) { bytes => HttpEntity(contentType, bytes) }
implicit val ByteStringMarshaller: ToEntityMarshaller[ByteString] = byteStringMarshaller(`application/octet-stream`)
def byteStringMarshaller(contentType: ContentType): ToEntityMarshaller[ByteString] =
Marshaller.withFixedContentType(contentType) { bytes => HttpEntity(contentType, bytes) }
implicit val StringMarshaller: ToEntityMarshaller[String] = stringMarshaller(`text/plain`)
def stringMarshaller(mediaType: MediaType.WithOpenCharset): ToEntityMarshaller[String] =
Marshaller.withOpenCharset(mediaType) { (s, cs) => HttpEntity(mediaType withCharset cs, s) }
def stringMarshaller(mediaType: MediaType.WithFixedCharset): ToEntityMarshaller[String] =
Marshaller.withFixedContentType(mediaType) { s => HttpEntity(mediaType, s) }
...
因为akka-http提供了implicit val StringMarshaller,所以在上面的例子里我可以直接写成: complete("hello world!"),然后系统自动构建一个含字符类型数据entity的HttpResponse。Entity.dataBytes中的数据类型是由Entity.contentType指明的:
object ContentTypes {
val `application/json` = ContentType(MediaTypes.`application/json`)
val `application/octet-stream` = ContentType(MediaTypes.`application/octet-stream`)
val `application/x-www-form-urlencoded` = ContentType(MediaTypes.`application/x-www-form-urlencoded`)
val `text/plain(UTF-8)` = MediaTypes.`text/plain` withCharset HttpCharsets.`UTF-8`
val `text/html(UTF-8)` = MediaTypes.`text/html` withCharset HttpCharsets.`UTF-8`
val `text/xml(UTF-8)` = MediaTypes.`text/xml` withCharset HttpCharsets.`UTF-8`
val `text/csv(UTF-8)` = MediaTypes.`text/csv` withCharset HttpCharsets.`UTF-8`
val `application/grpc+proto` = ContentType(MediaTypes.`application/grpc+proto`)
// used for explicitly suppressing the rendering of Content-Type headers on requests and responses
val NoContentType = ContentType(MediaTypes.NoMediaType)
}
客户端收到HttpResponse后把收到的二进制数据流转换成MediaTypes指定的类型。当然,最基本的数据类型就是String了。所有客户端都提供String类型的反序列化deserialization。理论上来讲,我们可以用字符形式来描述任何类型数据,这样我们可以把一个特殊类型实例转成String,然后发送给客户端。客户端再按照协议好的类型转换规则把字符转换成目标类型:
case class TextMessage(msg: String)
val helloMsg: String = TextMessage("hello string message converter").toString
val route =
path("hello") {
complete {helloMsg}
}
不过,这种情况只适用于内部系统的数据交换,因为数据类型转换的规则方式都是内部私有的。xml,json是开放平台系统数据交换的标准数据类型描述语言,本身是字符String形式的,只是它用String描述类型的语法是行业标准的。客户端可以按行业标准从一个xml/json文件里提取里面的数据类型和实例。所以,自定义类型的数据转换主要包括 类型->jsonstring->bytestring->jsonstring->类型。换句话说我们只要有隐式JsonMarshaller实例就可以完成大部分的数据交换工作了。
spray-json是akka-http自带默认的一个json工具库,它提供了通用的针对任何类型T的Marshaller/Unmarshaller: ToEntityMarshaller[T] 和 FromEntityUnmarshaller[T]。使用spay-json很简单,如下:
import akka.http.scaladsl.marshallers.sprayjson._
import spray.json._
object JsonMarshaller extends SprayJsonSupport with DefaultJsonProtocol {
//domain models
case class Person(name:String, age: Int)
case class Location(province: String, city: String, zipcode: Int)
case class Employee(person: Person, loccation: Location)
//collect your json format instances
implicit val fmtPerson = jsonFormat2(Person.apply)
implicit val fmtLocation = jsonFormat3(Location.apply)
implicit val fmtEmployee = jsonFormat2(Employee.apply)
}
使用Marshaller时只要import JsonMarshaller._ 把几个类型的隐式转换实例带进可视域即可,如下:
import JsonMarshaller._
val person = Person("Jonh Doe", 23)
val location = Location("GuangDong","ShenZhen",10223)
val employee = Employee(person,location)
val route =
path("json") {
complete {employee}
}
就这么简单,试试看:
http://192.168.11.189:8011/json
{"loccation":{"city":"ShenZhen","province":"GuangDong","zipcode":10223},"person":{"age":23,"name":"Jonh Doe"}}
没错,客户端的确收到正确的json数据。还有一项需求是在Reponse里返回一个数据流(多条数据),如当前交易项目清单。这个也比较容易:akka-http本身支持json-streaming。具体使用方法如下:
import akka.http.scaladsl.common.EntityStreamingSupport
import akka.stream.scaladsl._
implicit val jsonStreamingSupport = EntityStreamingSupport.json()
.withParallelMarshalling(parallelism = 4, unordered = false)
val persons = List(person,Person("Peter Kung",28), Person("Ketty Wang",16))
val personDataSource: Source[Person,Any] = Source.fromIterator(() => persons.iterator)
val route =
path("json") {
complete {employee}
} ~
path("stream") {
complete(personDataSource)
}
在客户端browser上测试:
http://192.168.11.189:8011/stream
[{"age":23,"name":"Jonh Doe"},{"age":28,"name":"Peter Kung"},{"age":16,"name":"Ketty Wang"}]
也没问题。下面是本次示范中使用的依赖和它们的版本:
