[RUBY] [RSpec] Make the response of the request to the Google API stubized by stub_request (: post) the same format as the actual one.

The title is long

Added a process to update an event on the calendar with the Google Calendar API from the Rails application, extract a specific attribute from the response, and handle it. Since the JSON received in the response is converted by google-api-ruby-client to the object of Google :: API :: V3 :: Event class, the response of the stub request is also converted by ruby-client or the same structure is used. I had to make it an object I had.

TL;DR

--If you make a request to Google API using google-api-ruby-client, the response will be returned in JSON format and then converted by google-api-ruby-client. --If you add 'X-Goog-Upload-Status':'final' to the header of the return value from stub_request, it will be in the same format as the response from the actual API.

Difference between stubized request and response when actually requesting API

The code below is requesting using google-api-ruby-client and trying to get the event ID from the response

request

service = Google::Apis::CalendarV3::CalendarService.new
service.authorization = access_token

response = service.update_event('primary', event_id, body)
event_id = response.id

At this time, response is as follows.

#<Google::Apis::CalendarV3::Event:0x000055c94da58f18
 @attachments=[],
 @attendees=[#<Google::Apis::CalendarV3::EventAttendee:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx @email="[email protected]", @organizer=true, @self=true>],
 @created=Mon, 01 Jan 2020 00:00:00 +0000,
 @creator=#<Google::Apis::CalendarV3::Event::Creator:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx @email="[email protected]", @self=true>,
 @description="",
 @end=#<Google::Apis::CalendarV3::EventDateTime:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>,
 @etag="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
 @id="abcdefghijklmnopqrstu",
 @organizer=#<Google::Apis::CalendarV3::Event::Organizer:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx @email="[email protected]">,
 @start=#<Google::Apis::CalendarV3::EventDateTime:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>,
 @updated=Mon, 01 Jan 2020 00:00:00 +0000>

Therefore, you can get the value from the response object with the getter method ʻid`.

On the other hand, in most cases, the API response will be defined in RSpec as follows:

let(:response) do
  {
    id: 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstu',
    start: { date_time: Time.zone.today },
    end: { date_time: Time.zone.today },
    html_link: 'https://www.google.com/calendar/event?eid=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
    i_cal_uid: '[email protected]',
    summary: 'event name',
    updated: Time.zone.today,

    ...

  }.to_json
end

In this case, in order to get the event ID, it is necessary to do something like JSON.parse (response) ['id'], and response.id becomes NoMethodError.

counter-measure

In order to return this JSON format response as an Event class object, it is necessary to add 'X-Goog-Upload-Status':'final' to the response header as shown below.

stub_request(
  :put, url
).to_return(
  status: 201,
  body: response,
  headers: {
    content_type: 'application/json',
    'X-Goog-Upload-Status': 'final'
  }
)

[Similar header information is added to the response] in the test spec of google-api-ruby-client [https://github.com/googleapis/google-api-ruby-client/blob/29f9544b1497358888cd93175e5579cab83fd247/spec/ google / apis / core / upload_spec.rb # L154).

It happened that my colleague found an article and an issue on GitHub and it was solved, but if not, I think I was addicted to it for 3 days.
