NAME

Bot::ChatBots::Trello::WebHook - Trello updates receiver, web hook

SYNOPSIS

use Log::Any qw< $log >;
use Log::Any::Adapter;
use Mojolicious::Lite;
Log::Any::Adapter->set('Stderr');
plugin 'Bot::ChatBots::Trello' => instances => [
   [
      'WebHook',
      processor  => \&processor,
      register   => 1,
      token      => $ENV{TOKEN},
      unregister => 0,
      url        => 'https://example.com:8443/mybot',
   ],
   # more can follow here...
];
app->start;
sub processor { # tube-compliant
   my $record = shift; # ... $record is normalized, by default

   # ... your business logic goes here...
   my $message = 'Howdy!';

   # In a WebHook you're actually processing a HTTP Request from
   # Trello, so you can set a response via Mojolicious
   if (automatic_via_https_response()) { # WebHook only
      $record->{response} = $message;
   }
   elsif (do_it_yourself_via_https_response()) { # WebHook only
      $record->{source}{refs}{controller}->render(text => $message);
      $record->{source}{flags}{rendered} = 1; # if Bot::ChatBot <= 0.006
   }
   elsif (automatic_via_sender()) { # same as LongPoll
      $record->{send_response} = $message;
   }
   elsif (do_it_yourself_via_sender()) { # same as LongPoll
      my $sender = $record->{source}{refs}{sender};
      $sender->send_response($message, record => $record);
   }
   # else nothing is sent back, just a HTTP 204 by default

   return $record; # follow on..
}

DESCRIPTION

This is an updates receiver and dispatcher for the Trello infrastructure. It connects to Trello's API for webhooks style (i.e. waiting for push messages to arrive), so you need a routable address/port to get the ball rolling.

Strictly speaking, you MUST only provide a "processor" and "url". The latter is used to set a POST route, while the former is what is called whenever a new message arrives through that route.

Initial releases do not provide access back to Trello via the API, so the registration must be carried over in some other way.

ACCESSORS

This class consumes the following roles, inheriting their accessors:

METHODS

This class consumes the following roles, inheriting their methods:

The following sections describe the addiitonal ones.

BUILD

This method is called upon object construction. It takes care to call "install_route" from Bot::ChatBots::Role::WebHook so that you don't have to. It takes care to install both POST and GET routes, to make Trello happy.

new

my $obj = Bot::ChatBots::Trello::WebHook->new(%args);

# mostly used in Mojolicious applications
plugin 'Bot::ChatBots::Trello' => instances => [ [ 'WebHook', %args ] ];

Create a new instance. Mostly used behind the scenes by Bot::ChatBots::MojoPlugin as in the second example above.

The arguments hash %hash supports the following keys:

***

all keys from Bot::ChatBots::Role::WebHook

normalize_record

my $record = $self->normlize_record($input_record);

Perform some normalization on the record to give it a more "general" shape. Which is still in a state of flux, so a look to the code might be helpful.

So far you should find the following keys in the returned record:

action

a hash reference with the following keys inside:

type

whatever type the incoming action (notification from Trello) has

subtype

whatever is contained in action.display.translationKey

item

the item type is derived (if possible) from the type, based on whether it ends with Card, List or Board. In this case, the relevant sub-hash from action.data is extracted.

payload

set to point to the same value as update

sender

set to the string unknown until we figure out something better

source->technology

set to the string trello

parse_request

my @updates = $obj->parse_request($req);

Parse the request and extract updates from it. The current Trello WebHook API sends one single update per message. Returns the update.

process

my $outcome = $obj->process($record);

Process a record. The main workhorse is inherited from Bot::ChatBots::Role::WebHook, although this wraps around it to add automatic sending of a 200 OK response.

When a response is rendered, $record->{source}{flags}{rendered} is set to 1 (or another integer true value) to signal that rendering already happened (this should prevent the calling function from doing the rendering again).
