Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
* feature: Introduce support for custom URL query key formatters

- Implements a key formatter for `camelCase`

* docs: Adds querystrings examples

* removes redundant code from `CamelCaseUrlParameterKeyFormatter.cs`

* fix: restores binary-compability

* Update after merge

* chore: remove useless piece of code

* feat(tests): CamelCaseUrlParameterKeyFormatter tests

* feat(Tests): RefitSettings tests

#### Dynamic Querystring Parameters

If you specify an `object` as a query parameter, all public properties which are not null are used as query parameters.
This previously only applied to GET requests, but has now been expanded to all HTTP request methods, partly thanks to Twitter's hybrid API that insists on non-GET requests with querystring parameters.

#### Custom Querystring parameter formatting

**Formatting Keys**

To customize the format of query keys, you have two main options:

1. **Using the `AliasAs` Attribute**:

You can use the `AliasAs` attribute to specify a custom key name for a property. This attribute will always take precedence over any key formatter you specify.

```csharp
public class MyQueryParams
{
[AliasAs("order")]
public string SortOrder { get; set; }

public int Limit { get; set; }
}

[Get("/group/{id}/users")]
Task<List<User>> GroupList([AliasAs("id")] int groupId, [Query] MyQueryParams params);

params.SortOrder = "desc";
params.Limit = 10;

GroupList(1, params);
```

This will generate the following request:

```
/group/1/users?order=desc&Limit=10
```

2. **Using the `RefitSettings.UrlParameterKeyFormatter` Property**:

By default, Refit uses the property name as the query key without any additional formatting. If you want to apply a custom format across all your query keys, you can use the `UrlParameterKeyFormatter` property. Remember that if a property has an `AliasAs` attribute, it will be used regardless of the formatter.

The following example uses the built-in `CamelCaseUrlParameterKeyFormatter`:

```csharp
public class MyQueryParams
{
public string SortOrder { get; set; }

[AliasAs("queryLimit")]
public int Limit { get; set; }
}

[Get("/group/users")]
Task<List<User>> GroupList([Query] MyQueryParams params);

params.SortOrder = "desc";
params.Limit = 10;
```

The request will look like:

```
/group/users?sortOrder=desc&queryLimit=10
```

**Note**: The `AliasAs` attribute always takes the top priority. If both the attribute and a custom key formatter are present, the `AliasAs` attribute's value will be used.

#### Formatting URL Parameter Values with the `UrlParameterFormatter`

In Refit, the `UrlParameterFormatter` property within `RefitSettings` allows you to customize how parameter values are formatted in the URL. This can be particularly useful when you need to format dates, numbers, or other types in a specific manner that aligns with your API's expectations.

**Using `UrlParameterFormatter`**:

Assign a custom formatter that implements the `IUrlParameterFormatter` interface to the `UrlParameterFormatter` property.

```csharp
public class CustomDateUrlParameterFormatter : IUrlParameterFormatter
{
public string? Format(object? value, ICustomAttributeProvider attributeProvider, Type type)
{
if (value is DateTime dt)
{
return dt.ToString("yyyyMMdd");
}

return value?.ToString();
}
}

var settings = new RefitSettings
{
UrlParameterFormatter = new CustomDateUrlParameterFormatter()
};
```

In this example, a custom formatter is created for date values. Whenever a `DateTime` parameter is encountered, it formats the date as `yyyyMMdd`.

**Formatting Dictionary Keys**:

When dealing with dictionaries, it's important to note that keys are treated as values. If you need custom formatting for dictionary keys, you should use the `UrlParameterFormatter` as well.

For instance, if you have a dictionary parameter and you want to format its keys in a specific way, you can handle that in the custom formatter:

```csharp
public class CustomDictionaryKeyFormatter : IUrlParameterFormatter
{
public string? Format(object? value, ICustomAttributeProvider attributeProvider, Type type)
{
// Handle dictionary keys
if (attributeProvider is PropertyInfo prop && prop.PropertyType.IsGenericType && prop.PropertyType.GetGenericTypeDefinition() == typeof(Dictionary<,>))
{
// Custom formatting logic for dictionary keys
return value?.ToString().ToUpperInvariant();
}

return value?.ToString();
}
}

var settings = new RefitSettings
{
UrlParameterFormatter = new CustomDictionaryKeyFormatter()
};
```

In the above example, the dictionary keys will be converted to uppercase.
