# Binding Reference
-## Structure for declaring binding
-### afb_binding_t
-
-The main structure, of type **afb_binding_t**, for describing the binding
-must be exported under the name **afbBindingExport**.
-
-This structure is defined as below.
-
-```C
-typedef struct afb_binding_v3 afb_binding_t;
-```
-
-Where:
-
-```C
-/**
- * Description of the bindings of type version 3
- */
-struct afb_binding_v3
-{
- /** api name for the binding, can't be NULL */
- const char *api;
-
- /** textual specification of the binding, can be NULL */
- const char *specification;
-
- /** some info about the api, can be NULL */
- const char *info;
-
- /** array of descriptions of verbs terminated by a NULL name, can be NULL */
- const struct afb_verb_v3 *verbs;
-
- /** callback at load of the binding */
- int (*preinit)(struct afb_api_x3 *api);
-
- /** callback for starting the service */
- int (*init)(struct afb_api_x3 *api);
-
- /** callback for handling events */
- void (*onevent)(struct afb_api_x3 *api, const char *event, struct json_object *object);
-
- /** userdata for afb_api_x3 */
- void *userdata;
-
- /** space separated list of provided class(es) */
- const char *provide_class;
-
- /** space separated list of required class(es) */
- const char *require_class;
-
- /** space separated list of required API(es) */
- const char *require_api;
-
- /** avoids concurrent requests to verbs */
- unsigned noconcurrency: 1;
-};
-```
-
-### struct afb_verb_t
-
-Each verb is described with a structure of type **afb_verb_t**
-defined below:
-
-```C
-typedef struct afb_verb_v3 afb_verb_t;
-```
-
-```C
-/**
- * Description of one verb as provided for binding API version 3
- */
-struct afb_verb_v3
-{
- /** name of the verb, NULL only at end of the array */
- const char *verb;
-
- /** callback function implementing the verb */
- void (*callback)(afb_req_t_x2 *req);
-
- /** required authorization, can be NULL */
- const struct afb_auth *auth;
-
- /** some info about the verb, can be NULL */
- const char *info;
-
- /**< data for the verb callback */
- void *vcbdata;
-
- /** authorization and session requirements of the verb */
- uint16_t session;
-
- /** is the verb glob name */
- uint16_t glob: 1;
-};
-```
-
-The **session** flags is one of the constant defined below:
-
-- AFB_SESSION_NONE : no flag, synonym to 0
-- AFB_SESSION_LOA_0 : Requires the LOA to be 0 or more, synonym to 0 or AFB_SESSION_NONE
-- AFB_SESSION_LOA_1 : Requires the LOA to be 1 or more
-- AFB_SESSION_LOA_2 : Requires the LOA to be 2 or more
-- AFB_SESSION_LOA_3 : Requires the LOA to be 3 or more
-- AFB_SESSION_CHECK : Requires the token to be set and valid
-- AFB_SESSION_REFRESH : Implies a token refresh
-- AFB_SESSION_CLOSE : Implies closing the session after request processed
-
-The LOA (Level Of Assurance) is set, by binding api, using the function **afb_req_session_set_LOA**.
-
-The session can be closed, by binding api, using the function **afb_req_session_close**.
-
-### afb_auth_t and afb_auth_type_t
-
-The structure **afb_auth_t** is used within verb description to
-set security requirements.
-The interpretation of the structure depends on the value of the field **type**.
-
-```C
-typedef struct afb_auth afb_auth_t;
-
-/**
- * Definition of an authorization entry
- */
-struct afb_auth
-{
- /** type of entry @see afb_auth_type */
- enum afb_auth_type type;
-
- union {
- /** text when @ref type == @ref afb_auth_Permission */
- const char *text;
-
- /** level of assurancy when @ref type == @ref afb_auth_LOA */
- unsigned loa;
-
- /** first child when @ref type in { @ref afb_auth_Or, @ref afb_auth_And, @ref afb_auth_Not } */
- const struct afb_auth *first;
- };
-
- /** second child when @ref type in { @ref afb_auth_Or, @ref afb_auth_And } */
- const struct afb_auth *next;
-};
-
-```
-
-The possible values for **type** is defined here:
-
-```C
-typedef enum afb_auth_type afb_auth_type_t;
-
-/**
- * Enumeration for authority (Session/Token/Assurance) definitions.
- *
- * @see afb_auth
- */
-enum afb_auth_type
-{
- /** never authorized, no data */
- afb_auth_No = 0,
-
- /** authorized if token valid, no data */
- afb_auth_Token,
-
- /** authorized if LOA greater than data 'loa' */
- afb_auth_LOA,
-
- /** authorized if permission 'text' is granted */
- afb_auth_Permission,
-
- /** authorized if 'first' or 'next' is authorized */
- afb_auth_Or,
-
- /** authorized if 'first' and 'next' are authorized */
- afb_auth_And,
-
- /** authorized if 'first' is not authorized */
- afb_auth_Not,
-
- /** always authorized, no data */
- afb_auth_Yes
-};
-```
-
-Example:
-
-```C
-static const afb_auth_t myauth[] = {
- { .type = afb_auth_Permission, .text = "urn:AGL:permission:me:public:set" },
- { .type = afb_auth_Permission, .text = "urn:AGL:permission:me:public:get" },
- { .type = afb_auth_Or, .first = &myauth[1], .next = &myauth[0] }
-};
-```
-
-## Functions of class afb_daemon
-
-The 3 following functions are linked to libsystemd.
-They allow use of **sd_event** features and access
-to **sd_bus** features.
-
-```C
-/*
- * Retrieves the common systemd's event loop of AFB
- *
- */
-struct sd_event *afb_daemon_get_event_loop();
-
-/*
- * Retrieves the common systemd's user/session d-bus of AFB if active
- */
-struct sd_bus *afb_daemon_get_user_bus();
-
-/*
- * Retrieves the common systemd's system d-bus of AFB if active or NULL
- */
-struct sd_bus *afb_daemon_get_system_bus();
-```
-
-The 2 following functions are linked to event management.
-Broadcasting an event send it to any possible listener.
-
-```C
-/*
- * Broadcasts widely the event of 'name' with the data 'object'.
- * 'object' can be NULL.
- *
- * For convenience, the function calls 'json_object_put' for 'object'.
- * Thus, in the case where 'object' should remain available after
- * the function returns, the function 'json_object_get' shall be used.
- *
- * Calling this function is only forbidden during preinit.
- *
- * Returns the count of clients that received the event.
- */
-int afb_daemon_broadcast_event(const char *name, struct json_object *object);
-
-/*
- * Creates an event of 'name' and returns it.
- *
- * Calling this function is only forbidden during preinit.
- *
- * See afb_event_is_valid to check if there is an error.
- */
-afb_event_t afb_daemon_make_event(const char *name);
-```
-
-The following function is used by logging macros and should normally
-not be used.
-Instead, you should use the macros:
-
-- **AFB\_ERROR**
-- **AFB\_WARNING**
-- **AFB\_NOTICE**
-- **AFB\_INFO**
-- **AFB\_DEBUG**
-
-```C
-/*
- * Send a message described by 'fmt' and following parameters
- * to the journal for the verbosity 'level'.
- *
- * 'file', 'line' and 'func' are indicators of position of the code in source files
- * (see macros __FILE__, __LINE__ and __func__).
- *
- * 'level' is defined by syslog standard:
- * EMERGENCY 0 System is unusable
- * ALERT 1 Action must be taken immediately
- * CRITICAL 2 Critical conditions
- * ERROR 3 Error conditions
- * WARNING 4 Warning conditions
- * NOTICE 5 Normal but significant condition
- * INFO 6 Informational
- * DEBUG 7 Debug-level messages
- */
-void afb_daemon_verbose(int level, const char *file, int line, const char * func, const char *fmt, ...);
-```
-
-The 2 following functions MUST be used to access data of the bindings.
-
-```C
-/*
- * Get the root directory file descriptor. This file descriptor can
- * be used with functions 'openat', 'fstatat', ...
- */
-int afb_daemon_rootdir_get_fd();
-
-/*
- * Opens 'filename' within the root directory with 'flags' (see function openat)
- * using the 'locale' definition (example: "jp,en-US") that can be NULL.
- * Returns the file descriptor or -1 in case of error.
- */
-int afb_daemon_rootdir_open_locale(const char *filename, int flags, const char *locale);
-```
-
-The following function is used to queue jobs.
-
-```C
-/*
- * Queue the job defined by 'callback' and 'argument' for being executed asynchronously
- * in this thread (later) or in an other thread.
- * If 'group' is not NUL, the jobs queued with a same value (as the pointer value 'group')
- * are executed in sequence in the order of there submission.
- * If 'timeout' is not 0, it represent the maximum execution time for the job in seconds.
- * At first, the job is called with 0 as signum and the given argument.
- * The job is executed with the monitoring of its time and some signals like SIGSEGV and
- * SIGFPE. When a such signal is catched, the job is terminated and re-executed but with
- * signum being the signal number (SIGALRM when timeout expired).
- *
- * Returns 0 in case of success or -1 in case of error.
- */
-int afb_daemon_queue_job(void (*callback)(int signum, void *arg), void *argument, void *group, int timeout)
-```
-
-The following function must be used when a binding depends on other
-bindings at its initialization.
-
-```C
-/*
- * Tells that it requires the API of "name" to exist
- * and if 'initialized' is not null to be initialized.
- * Calling this function is only allowed within init.
- * Returns 0 in case of success or -1 in case of error.
- */
-int afb_daemon_require_api(const char *name, int initialized)
-```
-
-This function allows to give a different name to the binding.
-It can be called during pre-init.
-
-```C
-/*
- * Set the name of the API to 'name'.
- * Calling this function is only allowed within preinit.
- * Returns 0 in case of success or -1 in case of error.
- */
-int afb_daemon_rename_api(const char *name);
-```
-
-## Functions of class afb_service
-
-The following functions allow services to call verbs of other
-bindings for themselves.
-
-```C
-/**
- * Calls the 'verb' of the 'api' with the arguments 'args' and 'verb' in the name of the binding.
- * The result of the call is delivered to the 'callback' function with the 'callback_closure'.
- *
- * For convenience, the function calls 'json_object_put' for 'args'.
- * Thus, in the case where 'args' should remain available after
- * the function returns, the function 'json_object_get' shall be used.
- *
- * The 'callback' receives 3 arguments:
- * 1. 'closure' the user defined closure pointer 'callback_closure',
- * 2. 'status' a status being 0 on success or negative when an error occured,
- * 2. 'result' the resulting data as a JSON object.
- *
- * @param api The api name of the method to call

-## Functions of class afb_event
-
-This function checks whether the event is valid.
-It must be used when creating events.

-## Logging macros
-
-The following macros must be used for logging:
-
-```C
-AFB_ERROR(fmt,...)
-AFB_WARNING(fmt,...)
-AFB_NOTICE(fmt,...)
-AFB_INFO(fmt,...)
-AFB_DEBUG(fmt,...)
-```
-
-The following macros can be used for logging in the context
-of a request **req** of type **afb_req**:
-
-```C
-AFB_REQ_ERROR(req,fmt,...)
-AFB_REQ_WARNING(req,fmt,...)
-AFB_REQ_NOTICE(req,fmt,...)
-AFB_REQ_INFO(req,fmt,...)
-AFB_REQ_DEBUG(req,fmt,...)
-```
-
-By default, the logging macros add file, line and function
-indication.
