Definitions for API framework.

Provides the ability to add middlewares for all requests, specific routes, controllers and controller actions. Supporting the PSR-15 standard means that it's possible to use 3rd party middlewares, like these. If a middleware you want to use has dependencies in a constructor, use DI binding to resolve them.

Example:

{
    "globalMiddlewareClassNameList": [
        "Espo\\Custom\\Classes\\ApiMiddlewares\\Test1",
        "Espo\\Custom\\Classes\\ApiMiddlewares\\Test2"
    ],
    "routeMiddlewareClassNameListMap": {
        "get_/:controller": [
            "Espo\\Custom\\Classes\\ApiMiddlewares\\Test3"
        ]
    },
    "actionMiddlewareClassNameListMap": {
        "get_/Activities": [
            "Espo\\Custom\\Classes\\ApiMiddlewares\\Test3"
        ]
    },
    "controllerMiddlewareClassNameListMap": {
        "Contact": [
            "Espo\\Custom\\Classes\\ApiMiddlewares\\Test4"
        ]
    },
    "controllerActionMiddlewareClassNameListMap": {
        "Contact_get_index": [
            "Espo\\Custom\\Classes\\ApiMiddlewares\\Test5"
        ],
        "Contact_post_create": [
            "Espo\\Custom\\Classes\\ApiMiddlewares\\Test6"
        ],
        "Contact_put_update": [
            "Espo\\Custom\\Classes\\ApiMiddlewares\\Test7"
        ],
        "Contact_get_read": [
            "Espo\\Custom\\Classes\\ApiMiddlewares\\Test8"
        ],
        "Contact_delete_delete": [
            "Espo\\Custom\\Classes\\ApiMiddlewares\\Test9"
        ]
    }
}

globalMiddlewareClassNameList

class-string<Psr\Http\Server\MiddlewareInterface>[]

A class list of global middlewares. Global middlewares applied for all API requests. Processed before authentication.

routeMiddlewareClassNameListMap

Object.<string, class-string<Psr\Http\Server\MiddlewareInterface>[]>

Middlewares for specific routes. Keys are composed in the form: {method}_{route}. Processed before authentication.

actionMiddlewareClassNameListMap

Object.<string, class-string[]>

Middlewares for routes with actionClassName. Keys are composed in the form: {method}_{route}. Processed after authentication.

controllerMiddlewareClassNameListMap

Object.<string, class-string[]>

Middlewares for specific controllers. A controller-name => class-string-list map. Processed after authentication.

controllerActionMiddlewareClassNameListMap

Object.<string, class-string[]>

Middlewares for specific controller actions. Keys are composed in the form: {ControllerName}_{method}_{actionName}. Processed after authentication.
