I ran into something that's either a bug or a missing feature (depending on your point of view). Would it be possible to add support for Google's batch requests (https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/guides/batch) to the built-in google classes (Keyring_Service_GoogleMail, etc.)
The problem I ran into was, I was trying to use Google's batch mode with code that looked something like this (pseudo code)
$body = '--batch_science
Content-Type: application/http
Content-ID: <item1>
GET /gmail/v1/users/me/messages/191e7beb2878c863
--batch_science
Content-Type: application/http
Content-ID: <item2>
GET /gmail/v1/users/me/messages/191e7beb2878c863
--batch_science--';
$args = [
'method'=>'POST',
'headers'=>[
'Content-Type'=>'multipart/mixed; boundary=batch_science',
],
'body'=>$body,
];
// $token is a the token object return by
// Keyring::get_token_store()->get_tokens( array( 'service' => 'google-mail' ) )
$data = $token->service->request(
'https://www.googleapis.com/batch/gmail/v1',
$args
);
The issue I ran into is the request method would return a null value, but there wouldn't be an error otherwise. It seemed as though the HTTP request was succeeding. After digging into the issue a bit, I believe the culprit is this bit of code in the base OAuth class.
#File: wp-content/plugins/keyring/includes/services/core/oauth2.php
/**
* OAuth2 implementations generally use JSON. You can still override this
* per service if you like, but by default we'll assume JSON.
*/
function parse_response( $response ) {
return json_decode( $response );
}
The base OAuth2 class appears to assume the response will be a JSON formatted string. However, in the base of Google's batch API, the response is a multipart message. The json_decode function fails to parse this, returning NULL.
I realize there's workarounds -- implement my own service class that extends Keyring_Service_GoogleMail and include a multipart aware parse_response method, or add a filter/listener for the http_response filter and parse the response myself -- however it feels like this is something these classes should be able to handle themselves, or at minimum come back with an error that indicated the response could not be parsed.
