VERSION
        v1.0.0

DESCRIPTION
    The purpose of this module is to provide a powerful, yet simple
    framework to implement a RESTful API under Apache2 mod_perl.

    As of version 1.0.0, this module inherits from Apache2::API. Please
    check its documentation. Other methods specific to this module are
    documented here.

METHODS
  new
    This initiates the package and take the following parameters:

    *   "request"

        This is a required parameter to be sent with a value set to a
        Apache2::RequestRec object

    *   "debug"

        Optional. If set with a positive integer, this will activate verbose
        debugging message

  api_uri()
    Returns the api URI as a "URI" object.

  api_version( integer or decimal )
    Get or sets the current api version on the server.

  base_path( path )
    If in the Directory directive of the Apache Virtual Host, a
    "Net_API_REST_Base" was set, this method will be set with this value.

  compression_threshold( integer )
    The number of bytes threshold beyond which, the reply method will gzip
    compress the data returned to the client.

  default_methods( [ qw( GET POST ... ) ] )
    This sets or gets the default methods supported by an endpoint.

  endpoint( [ Net::API::REST::Endpoint object ] )
    This gets or sets an Net::API::REST::Endpoint object.

  handler
    This is the main method called by Apache to handle the response. To make
    this work, in the Apache configuration, you must set the handler to your
    package and have your package inherit from Net::API::REST. For example:

        PerlResponseHandler MyPackage

    When called by Apache, handler will initiate a Net::API::REST::Request
    object and a Net::API::REST::Response

    If the incoming request is an OPTIONS request such as a typical one
    issued during a javascript Ajax call, it will call the method
    http_options() which will also set the cors policy by calling
    http_cors()

    Finally, it will try to find a route for the endpoint sought in the
    incoming query, and construct a Net::API::REST::Endpoint object with the
    context information of the endpoint, including information such as
    variables that could exist in the path. For example:

        /org/jp/llc/123/directors/42/profile

    Here the llc property has an id 123 and the directors property has an id
    42. Those two variables are stored in the Net::API::REST::Endpoint
    object. This object can then be accessed with the method endpoint

    Having found a route, handler calls the anonymous subroutine in charge
    of handling the endpoint.

    If no route was found, handler returns a "400 Bad Request".

    If the endpoint handler returns undef(), handler will return a "500
    Server Error", otherwise it will pass the return value back to Apache.
    The return value should be an Apache2::Const return code.

  http_cors()
    Checks http request context and set the proper CORS http headers.

  http_options()
    If the request is an OPTIONS request, this method is called. It will do
    a "pre-flight check" and look forward to see if the user has access to
    the resource sought and sets the response http headers accordingly.

  init_headers( code reference )
    If this is set, then Net::API::REST::handler will call it.

  is_allowed
    Get or set handlers to check permission for various aspects of the api.

    Each handler must return a valid HTTP Status code as an Apache2::Cons
    value and if the returned code is an error, Net::API::REST will stop
    right there and return it to Apache. See Net::API::REST::Status for more
    information.

    Currently supported handlers types are:

    *access*
        This is called in "handler" and before it runs the code associated
        with the endpoint.

        For example:

            $self->is_allowed( access => sub
            {
                my $req = $self->request;
                my $ep  = $self->endpoint;
                my $ref;
                # See: <https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/cheatsheets/REST_Security_Cheat_Sheet.html>
                if( $ep->access eq 'restricted' )
                {
                    if( !$req->headers->get( 'Authorization' ) || !$req->headers->get( 'X-CSRF-Token' ) )
                    {
                        return( Apache2::Const::HTTP_NOT_ACCEPTABLE );
                    }
                    elsif( !( $ref = $self->auth_check ) )
                    {
                        return( Apache2::Const::HTTP_UNAUTHORIZED );
                    }
                }
                # To implement the double submit security measure
                elsif( !$req->headers->get( 'X-CSRF-Token' ) )
                {
                    return( Apache2::Const::HTTP_NOT_ACCEPTABLE );
                }
            });

    *content_type*
        This handler, if present, is called from "handler" before executing
        the code reference associated with the endpoint.

        It is designed to check the content type in the request is
        acceptable as a security measure recommended and described in OWASP
        REST security cheat sheet
        <https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/cheatsheets/REST_Security_Cheat_
        Sheet.html>

        For example:

            $self->is_allowed( content_type => sub
            {
                my $type = shift( @_ );
                # You can also get the request content type with:
                # my $type = $self->request->type;
            });

    *method*
        This handler, if present, is called with the request method (e.g.
        GET, POST, etc) to check if it is allowed.

        Note that "OPTIONS" is different and should always be allowed to
        implement pre-flight check for CORS
        <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CORS>

        For example:

            $self->is_allowed( method => sub
            {
                my $meth = shift( @_ );
                my $ok_methods = [qw( GET POST )];
                return( Apache2::Const::HTTP_METHOD_NOT_ALLOWED ) if( !scalar( grep( $meth eq $_, @$ok_methods ) ) );
            });

        Note that this is equivalent to setting the value of
        "supported_methods" to an array reference with values "GET POST",
        but provides you with more granularity and control.

    *network*
        This is called very early in "handler" and is designed to check if
        the user's ip is authorised to access the api.

        The handler is called with the remote ip address as a string.

        This could be a good opportunity to check for api abuse and
        throttling.

        For example:

            $self->is_allowed( network => sub
            {
                my $ip = shift( @_ );
                if( $self->is_banned( $ip ) )
                {
                    return( Apache2::Const::HTTP_FORBIDDEN );
                }
                elsif( $self->is_throttled( $ip ) )
                {
                    return( Apache2::Const::HTTP_TOO_MANY_REQUESTS );
                }
                else
                {
                    # returning Apache2::Const::OK would work too although it is not the same value
                    return( Apache2::Const::HTTP_OK );
                }
            });

  jwt_accepted_algo( string )
    Get or set the algorithm supported for the JWT tokens.

  jwt_accepted_encoding( string )
    Get or set the supported encoding for the JWT tokens.

  jwt_algo( string )
    The chosen algorithm to create JWT tokens

  jwt_decode( token )
    Given a JWT token, this will decode it and returns a hash reference

  jwt_encode
    Provided with an hash reference of parameters, and this will prepare the
    token data and call "encode_jwt" in Net::API::REST::JWT

    It accepts the following arguments and additional arguments recognised
    by Net::API::REST::JWT can also be provided and will be passed to
    "encode_jwt" in Net::API::REST::JWT directly.

    It returns the encrypted token as a string or "undef" if an error
    occurred which can be retrieved using the "error" in Module::Generic
    method.

    *   "algo"

        This will set the *alg* property in the token.

    *   "audience"

        This will set the *aud* property in the token payload.

    *   "encoding"

        This will set the *enc* property in the token payload.

    *   "encrypt"

        If true, this will encrypt the token. When provided this will affect
        the *algo*.

        For example, when not encrypted, by default the algorithm used is
        "HS256", but when encryption is activated, the algorithm becomes
        "PBES2-HS256+A128KW"

    *   "expires"

        This will set the *exp* property in the token payload.

    *   "issued_at"

        This will set the *iat* property in the token payload.

    *   "issuer"

        This will set the *iss* property in the token payload.

    *   "key"

        This will set the *key* property in the token payload.

    *   "payload"

        The hash data to become the token payload. It can contains
        discretionary elements.

    *   "subject"

        This will set the *sub* property in the token payload.

    *   "ttl"

        If provided, this will set the *exp* property to *iat* + *ttl*

  jwt_encoding
  jwt_encrypt
  jwt_extract
  jwt_verify
  jwt_verify_audience
  key
  request()
    Returns the Net::API::REST::Request object. This object is set early
    during the instantiation in the handler method.

  response
    Returns the Net::API::REST::Response object. This object is set early
    during the instantiation in the handler method.

  route( URI object )
    Given an uri, this will find the route for the endpoint sought and
    return and Net::API::REST::Endpoint object. If nothing found, it will
    return an empty string. If there was an error, it will return "undef"
    and set an error object that can be retrieved with the inherited "error"
    in Module::Generic method. The error object will also contain a "code"
    attribute which will represent an http status code.

    "route" is called from "handler" to get the endpoint object and related
    handler, then calls the handler after performing a number of operations.
    See "handler" for more information.

    Otherwise, a Net::API::REST::Endpoint is returned.

  routes( hash reference )
    This sets the routes for all the endpoints proposed by the RESTful
    server

  supported_api_versions( array reference )
    Get or set the list of supported api versions

  supported_languages( array reference )
    Get or set the list of supported language codes, such as fr_FR, en_GB,
    ja_JP, zh_TW, etc

  supported_methods( array reference )
  well_known()
    If the http request is for /.well-know, then we simply decline to
    process it.

    This does not mean it won't get processed, but just that we pass and let
    Apache handle it directly.

  _try( object type, method name, @_ )
    Given an object type, a method name and optional parameters, this
    attempts to call it.

    Apache2 methods are designed to die upon error, whereas our model is
    based on returning "undef" and setting an exception with
    Module::Generic::Exception, because we believe that only the main
    program should be in control of the flow and decide whether to interrupt
    abruptly the execution, not some sub routines.
