# This controller is designed to allow your Agents to receive cross-site Webhooks (POSTs), or to output data streams. # When a POST or GET is received, your Agent will have #receive_web_request called on itself with the incoming params, # method, and requested content-type. # # Requests are routed as follows: # http://yourserver.com/users/:user_id/web_requests/:agent_id/:secret # where :user_id is a User's id, :agent_id is an Agent's id, and :secret is a token that should be user-specifiable in # an Agent that implements #receive_web_request. It is highly recommended that every Agent verify this token whenever # #receive_web_request is called. For example, one of your Agent's options could be :secret and you could compare this # value to params[:secret] whenever #receive_web_request is called on your Agent, rejecting invalid requests. # # Your Agent's #receive_web_request method should return an Array of json_or_string_response, status_code, and # optional mime type. For example: # [{status: "success"}, 200] # or # ["not found", 404, 'text/plain'] class WebRequestsController < ApplicationController skip_before_filter :authenticate_user! def handle_request user = User.find_by_id(params[:user_id]) if user agent = user.agents.find_by_id(params[:agent_id]) if agent content, status, content_type = agent.trigger_web_request(params.except(:action, :controller, :agent_id, :user_id, :format), request.method_symbol.to_s, request.format.to_s) if content.is_a?(String) render :text => content, :status => status || 200, :content_type => content_type || 'text/plain' elsif content.is_a?(Hash) render :json => content, :status => status || 200 else head(status || 200) end else render :text => "agent not found", :status => 404 end else render :text => "user not found", :status => 404 end end # legacy def update_location if user = User.find_by_id(params[:user_id]) secret = params[:secret] user.agents.of_type(Agents::UserLocationAgent).each { |agent| if agent.options[:secret] == secret agent.trigger_web_request(params.except(:action, :controller, :user_id, :format), request.method_symbol.to_s, request.format.to_s) end } render :text => "ok" else render :text => "user not found", :status => :not_found end end end
