POST, PATCH, and other methods not supported?

[btelles]

Hi there,

I've got a standard API that parses correctly in Apiary.io, and their mock server returns a 200, but drakov seems to always return "404: Cannot PATCH /groups/..."

Do non-GET requests need any special treatment? I'm using the example JS code in Apiary.io, and haven't been able to get a valid response all day. Here's the API:

FORMAT: 1A

# Group Users & Groups
## Group object [/groups/{id}]

+ Parameters
    + id (string, required)
        Group ID.

### Get group [GET]

+ Response 200 (application/json)

    + Attributes
        + data (GROUP)

+ Response 400 (application/json)

    + Attributes (ERROR)

+ Response 404 (application/json)

### Modify group [PATCH]

+ Request (application/json)

            {
                "data": {
                    "id": "acme",
                    "type": "group",
                    "attributes": {
                        "contact_emails": [
                            "wcoyote@acme.com",
                            "rrunner@acme.com",
                            "bbunny@acme.com"
                        ]
                      }
                }
            }

+ Response 200 (application/json)

    + Attributes
        + data (GROUP)

+ Response 400 (application/json)

    + Attributes (ERROR)



# GROUP

+ id: acme (string, required)
+ type: group (string, required)
+ attributes
    + organization: Acme (string, required)
    + organization_legal_name: Acme Inc. (string, required)
    + country_iso: us (string, required)
    + contact_emails: wcoyote@acme.com, rrunner@acme.com (array[string], required)
+ relationships
    + apikey
        + id: 57a24c23d0f49e1f13970f28a7a351b92f33b48c009dfefdaf2ce11140b2d456 (string, required)
        + type: apikey (string, required)
    + subscription
        + id: acme (string, required)
        + type: subscription (string, required)
    + administrators (array)
        + (object)
            + id: wcoyote
            + type: user
        + (object)
            + id: rrunner
            + type: user

And the CURL command:

curl --include \
     --request PATCH \
     --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
     --data-binary "    {
        \"data\": {
            \"id\": \"acme\",
            \"type\": \"group\",
            \"attributes\": {
                \"contact_emails\": [
                    \"wcoyote@acme.com\",
                    \"rrunner@acme.com\",
                    \"bbunny@acme.com\"
                ]
              }
        }
    }   " \
'http://localhost:5000/api/v3/groups/id'

And this is the code I'm using to run drakov (from a gulpfile.js):

var gulp = require('gulp');
var express = require('express');
var drakov = require('drakov');

gulp.task('drakov', function() {
  var argv = {
    sourceFiles: './api/apiary.apib',
    serverPort: 5000,
    autoOptions: true,
    method: ['PATCH', 'POST', 'PUT', 'DELETE', 'OPTIONS']
  }
  var app = express();
  drakov.middleware.init(app, argv, (err, middleWareFunction) => {
    app.use('/api/v3', middleWareFunction);
    app.listen(argv.serverPort);
  });
});

There are some limitations to the current implementation around Express to do with HTTP methods as well as other factors.

My aim work be to actually move to another framework, perhaps HAPI to allow better support for all the different HTTP methods

I also encountered this problem.

An update for everyone watching this issue.

This is now under active investigation and I am hoping to have a fix/update in the next couple of weeks 👍
