User Application
================
Tryton provides a way to connect URL rules to an callable endpoint using the
decorator method `route` of the `trytond.application.app` instance. This allows
to define a custom API based on HTTP that can be used to create a specific user
application.
The decorator takes as first parameter a string which follow the `Rule
Format`_ of Werkzeug and as second parameter sequence of HTTP methods.
Example::
from trytond.application import app
@app.route('/hello', methods=['GET'])
def hello(request):
return 'Hello world'
.. _Rule Format: http://werkzeug.pocoo.org/docs/latest/routing/#rule-format
The following converter is added by Tryton:
- `base64`: This converter accepts any Base64_ string and transforms it
into its corresponding bytes value.
.. _Base64: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base64
Tryton also provides some wrappers in `trytond.protocols.wrappers` to ease the
creation of such route.
- `set_max_request_size(size)`: change the default limit of the request to
the size in bytes.
- `with_pool`: which takes the first parameter as database name and
replace it by the corresponding instance of the :ref:`Pool <ref-pool>`.
- `with_transaction([readonly])`: which starts a :class:`Transaction` using
the :ref:`Pool <ref-pool>` from `with_pool`. If `readonly` is not set,
the transaction will not be readonly for `POST`, `PUT`, `DELETE` and
`PATCH` methods and readonly for all others.
- `user_application(name[, json])`: which set the :attr:`Transaction.user`
from the `Authorization` header using the type `bearer` and a valid key
for the named user application.
User Application Key
====================
Tryton also provides a easy way to manage access to user application using
keys per named application.
A key is created with a `POST` request on the `URL`
`/<database_name>/user/application/` which returns the key. The request must
contain as data a json object with the keys:
- `user`: the user login
- `application`: the name of the application
After the creation, the key must be validated by the user from the preferences
of a Tryton client.
A key can be deleted with a `DELETE` request on the same `URL`. The request
must contain as data a json object with the keys:
- `user`: the user login
- `key`: the key to delete
- `application`: the name of the application of the key
