=head1 NAME

Web::Request::Role::JSON - Make handling JSON easier in Web::Request

=head1 VERSION

version 1.008

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  # Create a request handler
  package My::App::Request;
  use Moose;
  extends 'Web::Request';
  with 'Web::Request::Role::JSON';

  # Make sure your app uses your request handler, e.g. using OX:
  package My::App::OX;
  sub request_class {'My::App::Request'}

  # Finally, in some controller action
  sub create_POST {
      my ($self, $req) = @_;

      my $data    = $req->json_payload;
      my $created = $self->model->create($data);
      return $self->json_response($created, undef, 201);
  }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

C<Web::Request::Role::JSON> provides a few methods that make handling
JSON in L<Web::Request> a bit easier.

Please note that all methods return a L<Web::Response> object.
Depending on the framework you use (or lack thereof), you might have
to call C<finalize> on the response object to turn it into a valid
PSGI response.

=head2 METHODS

=head3 json_payload

  my $perl_hash = $req->json_payload;

Extracts and decodes a JSON payload from the request.

=head3 json_response

  $req->json_response( $data );
  $req->json_response( $data, $header_ref );
  $req->json_response( $data, $header_ref, $http_status );

Convert your data to JSON and generate a new response with correct HTTP headers.

You can pass in more headers as the second argument (either hashref or
arrayref). These headers will be passed straight on to
C<< HTTP::Headers->new() >>.

You can also pass a HTTP status code as the third parameter. If none
is provided, we default to C<200>.

=head3 json_error

  $req->json_response( 'something is wrong' );
  $req->json_response( $error_data );
  $req->json_response( $error, $status );

Generate a JSON object out of your error message, if the message is a
plain string. But you can also pass in a data structure that will be
converted to JSON.

Per default, HTTP status is set to C<400>, but you can pass any other
status as a second argument. (Yes, there is no checking if you pass a
valid status code or not. You're old enough to not do stupid things..)

=head2 PARAMETERS

An optional C<content_type> parameter can be added on role application to
restore previous behaviour. Browsers tend to like the 'charset=utf-8' better,
but you might have your reasons.

    package MyRequest;
    extends 'OX::Request';
    with (
        'Web::Request::Role::JSON' => { content_type => 'application/json' },
    );
