Example of ngrest service with using the complex types

Create the service and name it Pets:

ngrest create Pets
cd pets

Edit generated sources (located in Pets/src directory) like this:

Pets.h

#ifndef PETS_H
#define PETS_H

#include <ngrest/common/Service.h>
#include <string>
#include <list>

struct Pet
{
    enum class Species
    {
        canine,
        feline
    };

    Species species;
    std::string name;
    std::string birthday;
};

//! Pets service
/*! Example of using complex data types */
// *location: pets
class Pets: public ngrest::Service
{
public:
    //! gets list of pets
    std::list<Pet> getPets();
};

#endif // PETS_H

Pets.cpp

#include "Pets.h"

std::list<Pet> Pets::getPets()
{
    return std::list<Pet>({
        {
            Pet::Species::canine,
            "spot",
            "Jan 1, 2010"
        },
        {
            Pet::Species::feline,
            "puff",
            "July 4, 2014"
        },
    });
}
