Read more at [MixerAPI.com](https://mixerapi.com). Installation ------------ [](#installation) !!! info "" You can skip this step if MixerAPI is installed. ``` composer require mixerapi/json-ld-view bin/cake plugin load MixerApi/JsonLdView ``` Alternatively after composer installing you can manually load the plugin in your Application: ``` # src/Application.php public function bootstrap(): void { // other logic... $this->addPlugin('MixerApi/JsonLdView'); } ``` Setup ----- [](#setup) Setup for this plugin is very easy. Just load the RequestHandler component and create a route for contexts and vocab. Then create a `config/jsonld_config.php` config file (recommended) and implement JsonLdDataInterface on your entities. #### Config (recommended) [](#config-recommended) Create a [config/jsonld\_config](assets/jsonld_config.php). If you skip this step then the defaults listed in the sample config will be used. #### RequestHandler [](#requesthandler) Your controllers must be using the `RequestHandler` component. This is typically loaded in your `AppController`. In most cases this is already loaded. ``` # src/Controller/AppController.php public function initialize(): void { parent::initialize(); $this->loadComponent('RequestHandler'); // other logic... } ``` #### Routes [](#routes) The contexts route displays your JSON-LD schema for an entity, while the vocab route will display all entities and additional metadata. ``` # config/routes.php $routes->scope('/', function (RouteBuilder $builder) { $builder->connect('/contexts/*', [ 'plugin' => 'MixerApi/JsonLdView', 'controller' => 'JsonLd', 'action' => 'contexts' ]); $builder->connect('/vocab', [ 'plugin' => 'MixerApi/JsonLdView', 'controller' => 'JsonLd', 'action' => 'vocab' ]); // ... other code }); ``` You should now be able see entities JSON-LD schema by browsing to `/contexts/{entity-name}`. For further customization you can copy the JsonLdController into your own project. #### Route Extension (optional) [](#route-extension-optional) If you would like to request JSON-LD by extension (e.g. `/index.jsonld`) you'll need to set the extension in your `config/routes.php`, example: ``` # config/routes.php $routes->scope('/', function (RouteBuilder $builder) { $builder->setExtensions(['jsonld']); // ... other code }); ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) Once setup is complete request types of `application/ld+json` will automatically be rendered as JSON-LD. ### Entity Schema [](#entity-schema) This plugin will map basic types (int, string, decimal etc.) to their corresponding schema.org values. For instance, `int` is mapped to `https://schema.org/Number`. You can improve the mappings by defining proper Validations on your Table class. For instance, fields with the `email` rule will be mapped to `https://schema.org/email`. For a full list of default mappings refer to `MixerApi\JsonLdView\SchemaMapper`. You can further customize the schema mapping by implementing `MixerApi\JsonLdView\JsonLdDataInterface` on your applications Entities: ``` # App/Model/Entity/Film.php class Film extends Entity implements JsonLdDataInterface { // ...other code /** * This is the context URL that you defined in your routes during Setup. This is used to browse the schema * definitions and appears as `@context` when displaying collection or item results * * @return string */ public function getJsonLdContext(): string { return '/contexts/Film'; } /** * This is the Entities schema description and appears as `@type` when displaying collection or item results * * @return string */ public function getJsonLdType(): string { return 'https://schema.org/movie'; } /** * This is the Entities URL and appears as `@id` when displaying collection or item results * * @param EntityInterface $entity * @return string */ public function getJsonLdIdentifier(EntityInterface $entity): string { return '/films/' . $entity->get('id'); } /** * You can define custom schemas here. These definitions take precedence and will appear when browsing to the * entities context URL. You can simply return an empty array if you don't care to define a schema. * * @return \MixerApi\JsonLdView\JsonLdSchema[] */ public function getJsonLdSchemas(): array { return [ new JsonLdSchema('title','https://schema.org/name', 'optional description') new JsonLdSchema('description','https://schema.org/about') new JsonLdSchema('length','https://schema.org/duration') new JsonLdSchema('rating','https://schema.org/contentRating') new JsonLdSchema('release_year','https://schema.org/copyrightYear') ]; } } ``` ### Collections [](#collections) We get the `@id` and `@context` properties because these Entities implement `JsonLdDataInterface`. This interface is of course optional and data will return without it minus the aforementioned properties. Pagination data is added in the `view` property per the Hydra [PartialCollectionView](https://www.w3.org/community/hydra/wiki/Pagination)specification. ``` #src/Controller/FilmsController.php public function index() { $this->request->allowMethod('get'); $actors = $this->paginate($this->Films, [ 'contain' => ['Languages'], ]); $this->set(compact('films')); $this->viewBuilder()->setOption('serialize', 'films'); } ``` Example:``` { "@context": "/context/Film", "@id": "/films", "@type": "Collection", "pageItems": 20, "totalItems": 1, "view": { "@id": "/films", "@type": "PartialCollectionView", "next": "/films?page=2", "prev": "", "first": "", "last": "/films?page=50" }, "member": [ { "id": 1, "title": "ACADEMY DINOSAUR", "description": "A Epic Drama of a Feminist And a Mad Scientist who must Battle a Teacher in The Canadian Rockies", "modified": "2006-02-15T05:03:42+00:00", "language": { "id": 1, "name": "English", "@id": "/languages/1", "@type": "https://schema.org/Language", "@context": "/context/Language" }, "@id": "/films/1", "@type": "https://schema.org/Movie", "@context": "/context/Film" } ] } ``` ### Items [](#items) ``` #src/Controller/LanguagesController.php public function view($id = null) { $this->request->allowMethod('get'); $languages = $this->Languages->get($id); $this->set('languages', $languages); $this->viewBuilder()->setOption('serialize', 'languages'); } ``` Output: ``` { "@id": "/languages/1", "@type": "https://schema.org/Language", "@context": "/context/Language", "id": 1, "name": "English" } ``` ### Contexts [](#contexts) Browsing to the contexts route will display information about that entity. To fine tune to the data you will need to implement JsonLdDataInterface. Using the Film entity as an example, the context looks like this when browsing to `/contexts/Film`: ``` { "@context": { "@vocab": "/vocab", "hydra": "http://www.w3.org/ns/hydra/core#", "title": "https://schema.org/name", "description": "https://schema.org/about", "length": "https://schema.org/duration", "rating": "https://schema.org/contentRating", "release_year": "https://schema.org/copyrightYear", "id": "https://schema.org/identifier", "language_id": "https://schema.org/Number", "rental_duration": "https://schema.org/Number", "rental_rate": "https://schema.org/Float", "replacement_cost": "https://schema.org/Float", "special_features": "https://schema.org/Text", "modified": "https://schema.org/DateTime" } } ``` #### Vocab [](#vocab) Any entities implementing the JsonLdDataInterface will appear when browsing to the route you created for vocab (e.g. /vocab): Sample:``` { "@contexts": { "@vocab": "/vocab", "rdf": "http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#", "rdfs": "http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#", "xmls": "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#", "owl": "http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#", "schema": "http://schema.org" }, "@id": "/vocab", "@type": "ApiDocumentation", "title": "API Documentation", "description": "", "supportedClass": [ { "@id": "https://schema.org/Language", "@type": "Class", "title": "Language", "supportedProperty": [ { "@type": "supportedProperty", "property": { "@id": "https://schema.org/name", "@type": "rdf:Property", "rdfs:label": "name", "domain": "https://schema.org/Language", "range": "xmls:char" }, "title": "name", "required": false, "readable": true, "writeable": true, "description": "" } ] } // ...and other items ] } ``` ### Serializing [](#serializing) Optionally, you can manually serialize data into JSON-LD using `JsonSerializer`. Example: ``` use MixerApi\JsonLdView\JsonSerializer; # json $json = (new JsonSerializer($data))->asJson(JSON_PRETTY_PRINT); // argument is optional # array $json = (new JsonSerializer($data))->getData(); # json-ld with pagination meta data use Cake\Http\ServerRequest; use Cake\View\Helper\PaginatorHelper; $json = (new JsonSerializer($data, new ServerRequest(), new PaginatorHelper()))->asJson(); ``` ### Health Score 53 — FairBetter than 97% of packages Maintenance84 Actively maintained with recent releases Popularity29 Limited adoption so far Community11 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity72 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
