Instance Method Details

#desc(description, options = {}) { ... } ⇒ Object

Add a description to the next namespace or function.

Examples:


desc 'create a user'
post '/users' do
  # ...
end

desc 'find a user' do
  detail 'locates the user from the given user ID'
  failure [ [404, 'Couldn\'t find the given user' ] ]
  success User::Entity
end
get '/user/:id' do
  # ...
end

Parameters:

  • description (String)

    descriptive string for this endpoint or namespace

  • options (Hash) (defaults to: {})

    other properties you can set to describe the endpoint or namespace. Optional.

Options Hash (options):

  • :detail (String)

    additional detail about this endpoint

  • :params (Hash)

    param types and info. normally, you set these via the ‘params` dsl method.

  • :entity (Grape::Entity)

    the entity returned upon a successful call to this action

  • :http_codes (Array[Array])

    possible HTTP codes this endpoint may return, with their meanings, in a 2d array

  • :named (String)

    a specific name to help find this route

  • :headers (Hash)

    HTTP headers this method can accept

Yields:

  • a block yielding an instance context with methods mapping to each of the above, except that :entity is also aliased as #success and :http_codes is aliased as #failure.
