Riddler

Riddler is a dynamic content and workflow engine.

Usage

Basic Example (using Liquid)

Riddler combines a ContentDefinition with a Context to render the output (using Liquid - https://shopify.github.io/liquid/)

```ruby require “riddler”

content_definition = { “id”=>”el_text”, “name”=>”text”, “content_type”=>”element”, “type”=>”text”, “text”=>”Hello params.name }!” }

Riddler.render content_definition

:type=>”text”, :id=>”el_text”, :name=>”text”, :text=>”Hello !”

Riddler.render content_definition, params: “World”

:type=>”text”, :id=>”el_text”, :name=>”text”, :text=>”Hello World!”

```

Predicate Example (using Predicator)

Pieces of content can define if they should be included or not. Here we use the include_predicate to specify that it should only be included if params.name = 'foo'.

```ruby require “riddler”

content_definition = { “id”=>”el_text”, “name”=>”text”, “content_type”=>”element”, “type”=>”text”, “text”=>”Hello params.name }!”, “include_predicate” => “params.name = ‘foo’” }

Riddler.render content_definition

nil

Riddler.render content_definition, params: “foo”

:type=>”text”, :id=>”el_text”, :name=>”text”, :text=>”Hello foo!”

```

PokeAPI ContextBuilder example

One way Riddler can be extended is by adding new ContextBuilders. Let’s add the ability to look up a Pokemon at https://pokeapi.co/

We will then pass in a pokemon_id as a param

This also shows Liquid filters - capitalizing the name

```ruby require “riddler” require “net/http”

class PokemonContextBuilder < ::Riddler::ContextBuilder # Does the current context have the data available for this builder to function def data_available? context.params.pokemon_id end

# Extract IDs from the context (params, headers, JWTs, etc) and store # them in context.ids def extract_ids add_id :pokemon_id, context.params.pokemon_id end

def process uri = URI “https://pokeapi.co/api/v2/pokemon/#pokemon_id/” response_string = Net::HTTP.get uri response = JSON.parse response_string

context.assign "pokemon", response   end end

Riddler.configure {

c

c.context_builders « PokemonContextBuilder }

content_definition = { “id”=>”el_text”, “name”=>”text”, “content_type”=>”element”, “type”=>”text”, “text”=>”Hello pokemon.name | capitalize }!” }

Riddler.render content_definition, params: “1”

:type=>”text”, :id=>”el_text”, :name=>”text”, :text=>”Hello Bulbasaur!”

```
