# ``MarvelService``
<!--@START_MENU_TOKEN@-->Summary<!--@END_MENU_TOKEN@-->
A library that allows the developer to interact with the **Marvel Comics API** backend service.
## Overview
<!--@START_MENU_TOKEN@-->Text<!--@END_MENU_TOKEN@-->
The **MarvelService** library is a package that allows the developer to interact with all the available endpoints of the [Marvel Comics online service](https://developer.marvel.com).
## Installation
This library can be integrated into your library, tool, and/or app as an added dependency into any `Package.swift` file or Xcode project with the [Swift Package Manager](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/swift-packages).
Here's an example of how to add this library as a dependency into a `Package.swift` file:
```swift
let package = Package(
// name, platforms, products, etc.
dependencies: [
.package(url: "https://github.com/rock-n-code/marvel-service", from: "1.0.0"),
// other dependencies
],
targets: [
.target(
name: "SomeTarget",
dependencies: [
.product(name: "MarvelService", package: "marvel-service"),
]
)
// other targets
]
)
```
In [Xcode](https://developer.apple.com/xcode/), on the other hand, it is required to use the Xcode inerface to add dependencies into a project or workspace.
> important: Swift 5.10 or higher is required in order to build this library.
## Usage
After adding the `MarvelService` library as a dependency in the library, tool, and/or application, as explained in the previous sec tion, then it is required to import the library.
```swift
import MarvelService
```
Then a ``Client`` must to be initialized. Although this type is highly configurable, and browsing through its documentation is highly recomendable; it requires three parameters to set the client correctly:
1. *a host URL to which the client connects to*;
2. *a transport in charge of performing the HTTP operations*;
3. *an authorization middleware configured with either an `api key` or a `private+public` keys*.
```swift
let marvelClient = Client(
serverURL: try Servers.Server1.url(),
transport: URLSessionTransport(),
middlewares: [
AuthMiddleware(
privateKey: "SomePrivateKey",
publicKey: "SomePublicKey"
)
]
)
```
> Important: It is mandatory to signup to the [Developer portal of Marvel Comics](https://developer.marvel.com/account) in order to obtain an *API Key* to use this library, as every request to this service [requires to be signed](https://developer.marvel.com/documentation/authorization).
Finally a client is ready to use! This client is now able to request any information regarding to any published Marvel *characters, comics, creators, events, series and stories* to the **Marvel Comics API** service, and handle its responses as follows:
```swift
do {
let response = try await marvelClient.getCharacters(
query: .init(name: "wolverine"),
)
switch response {
case let .ok(ok):
switch ok.body {
case let .json(charactersContainer):
// Do something with the `charactersContainer` object.
}
case let .unauthorized(standardError):
// Do something with the `standardError` object.
case .forbidden(_):
// Do something here, like throwing an error.
case let .notFound(standardError):
// Do something with the `standardError` object.
case let .methodNotAllowed(_):
// Do something here, like throwing an error.
case let .conflict(standardError):
// Do something with the `standardError` object.
case let .tooManyRequests(_):
// Do something here, like throwing an error.
case let .undocumented(statusCode, payload):
// Do something with the `statusCode` and `payload` received from undeclared response, if required.
}
} catch {
// Do something with any catched error.
}
```
> Tip: It is highly recommended to go through the available documentation at the [Marvel Comics online service](https://developer.marvel.com)
> Warning: Please do create an issue in case of encountering problems interacting with any of the endpoints.
## Tasks
This library offers a set of ready-to-use tasks that simplify the interaction with the library, which the developer can use from any `Terminal` application.
> Tip: To show the available list of tasks, plus display some explanations about each and every one of them; please enter the following command:
```bash
$ make
