NAME

SMS::Send::Adapter::Node::Red - SMS::Send Adapter to Node-RED JSON HTTP request

SYNOPSIS

CGI Application

  use SMS::Send::Adapter::Node::Red;
  my $service = SMS::Send::Adapter::Node::Red->new(content => join('', <>));
  $service->cgi_response;

PSGI Application

  use SMS::Send::Adapter::Node::Red;
  SMS::Send::Adapter::Node::Red->psgi_app

PSGI Plack Mount

  use SMS::Send::Adapter::Node::Red;
  use Plack::Builder qw{builder mount};
  builder {
    mount '/sms' => SMS::Send::Adapter::Node::Red->psgi_app;
    mount '/'    => sub {[404=> [], []]};
  }

DESCRIPTION

This Perl package provides an adapter from Node-RED HTTP request object with a JSON payload to the SMS::Send infrastructure using either a PSGI or a CGI script. The architecture works easiest with SMS::Send drivers based on the SMS::Send::Driver::WebService base object since common settings can be stored in the configuration file.

CONSTRUCTOR

new

  my $object = SMS::Send::Adapter::Node::Red->new(content=>$string_of_json_object);

PROPERTIES

content

JSON string payload of the HTTP post request.

Example Payload:

  {
    "to"      : "7035551212",
    "text"    : "My Text Message",
    "driver"  : "VoIP::MS",
    "options" : {}
  }

The Perl logic is based on this one-liner with lots of error trapping

  my $sent = SMS::Send->new($driver, %$options)->send_sms(to=>$to, text=>$text);

I use a Node-RED function like this to format the JSON payload.

  my_text     = msg.payload;
  msg.payload = {
                 "driver"  : "VoIP::MS",
                 "text"    : my_text,
                 "to"      : "7035551212",
                 "options" : {"key" : "value"},
                };
  return msg;

METHODS (STATE)

input

JSON Object from input that is passed to output.

status

HTTP Status Code returned to Node-RED is one of 200, 400, 500 or 502. Typically, a 200 means the SMS message was successfully sent to the provider, a 400 means the input is malformed, a 500 means the server is misconfigured (verify installation), and a 502 means that the remote service has issues or is unreachable.

status_string

Format HTTP Status Code as string for web response

error

Error string passed in the JSON return object.

set_status_error

Method to set the HTTP status and error with one function call.

METHODS (ACTIONS)

send_sms

Wrapper around the SMS::Send->send_sms call.

cgi_response

Formatted CGI response

psgi_app

Returns a PSGI application

OBJECT ACCESSORS

CGI

Returns a CGI object for use in this package.

SMS

Returns a SMS::Send object for use in this package.
