Fetching stores that can perform home delivery (Node.js)
In this use case, the user applies a filter before searching to fetch only the stores that can perform home delivery
Code snippets
Client calls the BAP server to trigger search:
router.post("/local_retail/search_by_home_delivery", searchByHomeDelivery);
async function searchByHomeDelivery({ body }, res) {
try {
// .. Validate the client request before below function
await generateSearchRequest(body)
} catch (error) {
res.status(500).send(httpResponse("NACK", error));
}
};
BAP server generates the protocol request body
// Code to generate the protocol request body i.e. function generateSearchRequest() specified above
async function generateSearchRequest(clientRequestBody) {
/*

//The below code generates the above example JSON.
const transactionId = _.get(body, "transactionId");
// Returns the Context including MessageId
const context = createContext(transactionId);
const searchRequestBody = {
context,
message: {
intent: {
fulfillment: {
// Construct from the request
},
}
}
};
//call protocol search
const response = await callSearch(searchRequestBody);
res
.status(200)
.send({ ...response.data, messageId: context["message_id"] });
}
BAP server calls protocol search to the network
async function callSearch(searchRequestBody) {
// It lookups the registry for BG OR BPP
let uri = lookup();
// Construct Header
const headers = constructAuthHeader(); // Auth Header with digital Signature
return axios({ url: `${uri}/local_retail/search`, method: "POST", data: request, headers});
}
BAP receives protocol on_search
