Basically IWS maps ILE RPG programs into RESTfull service. I found it very
usefull especially because it's free and it's integrated in the operating
system.

Basically I just need to map a URI to a stored procedure or RPG program
and have access to the raw bodies and headers for the request and
response?
I'm not really interested in having it try to decode data-structures or
parameters, I prefer to do that using SQL. Could it do that?

The marriage between RPG and IWS works very well. And IBM's support is
(as
always) great.

The short(ish) answer is that it's built on Express, it basically just
extracts the HTTP headers, along with host name, method, cookies and a
bunch of other things and then passes them as a JSON object, together
with
the request body, to a despatcher stored procedure. The despatcher
determines which application SP should process the request based on the
route and method (although any other criteria available could be used,
such
as the "content-type" or "accepts" headers) and calls that.

The despatcher and the processing SPs have four parameters:
in REQUEST - a JSON object with the header data mentioned above
in REQUEST_BODY - a JSON object with the request body (mine are
always
JSON)
inout RESPONSE_DATA - a JSON object with the response data, similar
to
the header data mentioned above
out RESPONSE - a CLOB/BLOB/JSON/XML etc. with the response body

The SPs are able to inspect the REQUEST_DATA JSON parameter to find out
the path or query parameters or any of the other information relevant
to
the call, populate the response body and fill in any relevant parts of
the
response header information, such as status code, or content-type.

Actually, while it's only about 80 lines of Typescript, there are
another
couple of hundred lines of SQL in the dispatching and route resolution
SQL
SPs, so a bit more than the few dozen lines I claimed! Also, the
version
I
currently use against a MariaDB database (hence the slightly different
SQL
syntax above), I haven't ported it yet to the IBM i yet - but I don't
see
any issue doing that, there's nothing database specific in the code.
In
any case, I suspect that IWS might be able to do almost the same thing,
so
it might not even be necessary, but I haven't had time to look.

I'll stick the source on GitHub at some point, in case it's useful to
someone.

Tim.

if you're on 7.2 or later, you can even build the JSON responses
right
in the SQL and then you only need a
very thin middleware layer (the one I currently use is just a few
dozen
lines of Typescript).

how does this work?
