API abstraction layer

ownCloud currently has a ton of static methods which is a very bad thing concerning testability. Therefore the App Framework comes with an :php:class:`OCA\\AppFramework\\Core\\API` abstraction layer (basically a `facade <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facade_pattern>`_) which is located in the App Framework app at :file:`core/api.php`.
|
|
|
|
If you find yourself in need to use more ownCloud internal static methods, add them to the API class in the **appframework/** directory, like:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: php
|
|
|
|
<?php
|
|
|
|
// inside the API class
|
|
|
|
|
|
public function methodName($someParam){
|
|
\OCP\Util::methodName($this->appName, $someParam);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
?>
|
|
|
|
.. note:: Please send a pull request and cc **Raydiation** so the method can be added to the API class.
|
|
|
|
You could of course also simply inherit from the API class and overwrite the API in the dependency injection container in :file:`dependencyinjection/dicontainer.php` by using:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: php
|
|
|
|
<?php
|
|
|
|
// inside the constructor
|
|
$this['API'] = $this->share(function($c){
|
|
return new MyExtendedAPI($c['AppName']);
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
This will allow you to easily mock the API in your unittests.
