Searching by delivery location and receiving list of stores (Java)

This use case describes a sequence of actions where a user searches for stores by entering the delivery location on his app. Once the user hits search, he sees a list of stores that can deliver to that location.

Search

Code snippets

Client calls the BAP server to trigger search:

    @PostMapping("/local_retail/search_by_drop_location")
    public ResponseEntity searchByDropLocation(
            @RequestHeader HttpHeaders headers,
            @RequestBody ClientSearchRequest request) {
        var response = bapApplicationService.generateSearchRequest(request, headers);
        return ResponseEntity.ok(response);
    }

BAP server generates the protocol request body

        return invokeSearch(searchRequest, headers);

BAP server calls protocol search to the network

    public Response invokeSearch(SearchRequest request, HttpHeaders headers) {

        // Call to look up function which returns the the public key and BPP/BG Endpoint to be called
        var url = lookUp(headers);

        //Call BPP Search api
        var responseEntity = apiClient.post(url[0] + Context.ActionEnum.search,
                constructRequestHeaders(),
                request,
                Response.class);

        if (responseEntity.getBody() == null || responseEntity.getBody().getError() != null ||
                "NACK".equals(responseEntity.getBody().getMessage().getAck().getStatus())) {
            // Return custom error to the client
            return null;
        }
        return Response.of("ACK", null);
    }

BAP receives protocol on_search
