W3C API through LutaML Models

Purpose

A Ruby client implementation for the W3C web API with a CLI interface.

This gem provides:

A complete client for the W3C API (oft-used endpoints implemented)
Data models created with lutaml-hal and lutaml-model for all W3C API resources
HAL (Hypertext Application Language) implementation for recursive resource traversal
Built-in rate limiting with exponential backoff for reliable API access
A command-line interface using Thor following GitHub CLI patterns

The endpoint supported is at https://api.w3.org.

This gem is developed against the W3C API documented at https://api.w3.org/doc.

Illustrative example usage

This is an example demonstrating the power of this library as inherited from lutaml-hal, showing multiple levels of automatic link resolution.

Example 1. Calling the Ruby API with multiple levels of link resolution

> require 'w3c_api'
> W3cApi::Hal.instance.register.fetch(:ecosystem_index)
  .links.ecosystems.first.realize
  .links.evangelists.realize

# =>
#  #<W3cApi::Models::EvangelistIndex:0x000000011de99d50
#   @limit=100,
#   @links=

Ruby API

Rate limiting

The W3C API client includes built-in rate limiting with exponential backoff to handle API rate limits gracefully. Rate limiting is enabled by default and works transparently with all API operations.

Quick start

require 'w3c_api'

# Rate limiting is enabled by default
client = W3cApi::Client.new

# Configure rate limiting if needed
W3cApi::Hal.instance.configure_rate_limiting(
  max_retries: 5,        # Maximum retry attempts
  base_delay: 1.0,       # Initial delay in seconds
  max_delay: 60.0,       # Maximum delay cap
  backoff_factor: 2.0    # Exponential backoff multiplier
)

# Make requests - rate limiting works automatically
specifications = client.specifications

Demo and examples

To see rate limiting in action, run the included demonstration scripts:

# Basic rate limiting demo
$ ruby demo/rate_limiting_demo.rb

# Advanced stress testing and performance analysis
$ ruby examples/rate_limiting_stress_test.rb

The demo script shows: * Default rate limiting configuration * Custom configuration examples * Enabling/disabling rate limiting * Status checking

The stress test example demonstrates: * Rapid sequential requests * Cross-endpoint performance analysis * Dynamic configuration changes * Bulk operation patterns

Embed support with auto-realize

General

The W3C API supports embedded content to reduce the number of HTTP requests needed to fetch related resources. This gem provides comprehensive embed support with automatic link realization for optimal performance.

require 'w3c_api'

# Create a client and use embed parameter directly
client = W3cApi::Client.new

# Fetch specifications with embedded content
specs = client.specifications(embed: true, items: 5)

# Fetch groups with embedded content
groups = client.groups(embed: true, items: 5)

# Fetch series with embedded content
series = client.series(embed: true, items: 5)

# Discover which endpoints support embed
supported_endpoints = W3cApi::Client.embed_supported_endpoints
# => [:group_index, :serie_index, :specification_index]

# Check if specific endpoint supports embed
client.embed_supported?(:specification_index)  # => true

Auto-realize functionality

The gem features automatic embedded content detection that eliminates the need to manually pass parent_resource parameters. Links automatically detect and use embedded content when available, falling back to HTTP requests when needed.

# Fetch specifications with embed enabled
specs = client.specifications(embed: true, items: 5)

# Links automatically use embedded content - no parent_resource needed!
specs.links.specifications.each do |spec_link|
  # This uses embedded data automatically - no HTTP request needed!
  spec = spec_link.realize
  puts "#{spec.title} - #{spec.shortname}"
end

# The auto-realize functionality works by:
# 1. Links store references to their parent resources automatically
# 2. Before making HTTP requests, links check for embedded data
# 3. If embedded content is available, it's used directly
# 4. If no embedded content exists, normal HTTP requests are made

Performance comparison

Using embed with auto-realize provides significant performance improvements:

# Without embed: 1 request for index + N requests for each specification
specs = client.specifications(items: 5)
specs.links.specifications.each do |spec_link|
  spec = spec_link.realize  # Each call makes an HTTP request
  puts spec.title
end
# Total: 6 HTTP requests (1 + 5)

# With embed: 1 request total, embedded data used automatically
specs = client.specifications(embed: true, items: 5)
specs.links.specifications.each do |spec_link|
  spec = spec_link.realize  # Uses embedded data automatically!
  puts spec.title
end
# Total: 1 HTTP request only

Embed discovery

The gem provides methods to discover embed capabilities:

# Get list of endpoints that support embed
W3cApi::Client.embed_supported_endpoints
# => [:group_index, :serie_index, :specification_index]

# Check if specific endpoint supports embed
client.embed_supported?(:specification_index)  # => true
client.embed_supported?(:specification_resource)  # => false

# Get comprehensive embed information
embed_info = W3cApi::Embed.embed_info
puts embed_info[:supported_endpoints]
puts embed_info[:descriptions]
puts embed_info[:usage_example]

Important

User ID formats

The W3C API uses both numeric IDs (e.g., 128112) and string IDs (e.g., f1ovb5rydm8s0go04oco0cgk0sow44w) for users. All user-related commands support both formats. The format depends on how the user is referenced in API responses.

Get

Getting a user by ID.

# Fetch a user with a numeric ID
$ w3c_api user fetch --hash=128112
# Fetch a user with a string ID
$ w3c_api user fetch --hash=f1ovb5rydm8s0go04oco0cgk0sow44w

$ w3c_api user fetch --hash=f1ovb5rydm8s0go04oco0cgk0sow44w
