Introduction and Concepts

Through this function, users can create their own widget Widget to embebed embed in web sites in order to access KIBE IBE (KIU INTERNET BOOKING ENGINE) and it´s functionalities. This document will explain how to configure and show some examples for developers

Concepts

is a guideline to get content and connect to the application.

What is a Widget?

- it It is a form on HTML with .CSS that could can be embebed displayed into an iframe on the client´s web page or other sites.

Does KIU offer a widgetWidget?

- Yes, KIU when create the KIBE for clients, supply a standard widget, but maybe this not adjust to the website customer requirements and decide to create one.

Does the custom widget takes the general configuration of the KIBE?

- The widget MUST take the configuration and content of the site in order to be accomplish with the operating and commercial intends of the client. All this information reside on the KIBE backoffice that should be completely configurated at time of widget´s creation. During this document you will see many examples of . KIU provides a standard Widget once IBE has created, nevertheless it might not fit the web site´s corporate requirements, such as height, width, etc.

Is the custom Widget based on the IBE´s general configuration?

Yes, indeed the widget is based on the IBE configuration and site´s content in order to accomplish operative and commercial requirements. Previously mentioned information resides on the IBE´s Back office and should been completely configured once the widget created. Within this document, you will find some examples on how to connect your custom widget with the KIBE.

How to get KIBE content to build a widget.

When a user create a form in order to build a widget for KIBE, there are some mandatory fields that should had in order to send the minimal information to make it work and get content.

To get that content and the information required for the KIBE application to work, the developers have to add the next Script into the head tag of the form.

Code Block

language	actionscript3
theme	DJango

IBE.

Tip

title	Important

In order to make a POST to the flight search services it is necessary to add the host from where the widget is going to be served to the IBE's white listed sites and which IBE environment is going to point to. This information shall be sent to webservices@kiusys.com to be authorised

Tip

title	Important

In order for the carrier can use the custom widget it is necessary to add the following information in the carrier´s settings.

CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS
ALLOWED_HOSTS

Both carrier DNS/HOST.

Uploading Content to Widget

Whenever a user creates a form in order to build a widget for KIBE, there are some mandatory fields that must be included in order to send the minimal information to make it work and retrieve content.
To get this content and the information required for the KIBE application to work, developers have added the following Script into the <head> tag of the form.

Code Block

language	actionscript3
theme	DJango

 <script>
            $(document).ready(function(){
                $.ajax({
                    url: "[KIBE URL domain]/api/get_complete_config_widget/?callback",
                    success: function(response){ formatResponse(response);},
                    dataType: "jsonp"
                });
                //EjemploExample of sobrehow comoto consumirconsume lathe data
                function formatResponse(response){
                    $("#csrfmiddlewaretoken").val(response.csrf_token);
                    $.each(response.airports.keys.origin, function(i,e){ 
                                  $("#id_origin").append("<option value='"+ e.data +"'>"+ e.value +"</option>")               
                    })
                    $.each(response.airports.keys.destination, function(i,e){ 
                                  $("#id_destination").append("<option value='"+ e.data +"'>"+ e.value +"</option>")               
                    })
                }
            });
        </script>

- URL: It The KIBE domain has to be declared the KIBE domain (This this data is provided by KIU at time of KIBE creation for client) once KIBE is created), followed by the parameters /api/get_complete_config_widget/?callback.

(Exe.g.: https://kibe-dev-xx.kiusys.net/api/get_complete_config_widget/?callback).

This URL will return the next JSON API.following response on JSON format:

Form

Submit [ POST ]

The form will communicate with KIBE through a simple SUBMIT of the carrier's HOST

Authorisation Form

For making a POST / SUBMIT in KIBE's form, it's mandatory to received the field csrfmiddleware token with the API's HASH in the field csrf_token. If the HASH is not received, KIBE will respond to the request with 403 Forbidden.

Expected Fields

KIBE application will expect the following fields in order to proceed with the flight search/quotation

Field names should be respected when the POST is done in order to have a proper quotation and flight search

Field Name	Description	Values/Format
csrfmiddlewaretoken	Authorisation HASH	HASH
one_way	If oneway parameter will be sent as true, if roundtrip it won't be sent.	True
origin	IATA airport code for origin	4 alphabetic characters

return_date	Arrival date, if it is oneway this field should be empty.	DD/MM/YYYY
adults	Amount of adult passengers, at least one should be sent for search and quotation	Numeric
minors	Amount of child passengers, if none it should be sent as 0	Numeric
infants	Amount of infant passengers, if none it should be sent as 0.	Numeric
country_setting	Unique identification of the country setting registry	Numeric

WebAssembly

To ensure that purchase requests are only from a certified URL and only from a browser. The use of a component responsible for generating an immediate token to send it in the submit of the form is implemented. This is valid for use only once. Therefore, in order to resend a valid token, it is necessary to update the browser.

The token generated by webassembly has a finite validity, configurable from the kibe backend. By default it has 180 seconds. This means that once the search has been performed and the list of available flights has been obtained, the screen can be updated or the date changed with the carousel, for 3 minutes (configurable time).

To insert this functionality, you need:

Add wasm-load class to the form element used to send the data to kibe:
- It should be:

Code Block

language	xml
theme	FadeToGrey

<form class="searcher wasm-load" ...

Get url corresponding to the carrier for example: https://kibe-stage-xx.kiusys.net/static/wasm:
This url is a product of the union between the submit url and the path / static / wasm. So for any carrier, you only need to change the xx for your IATA code
Insert the link style in the html head element:

Code Block

language	xml
theme	FadeToGrey

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://kibe-stage-xx.kiusys.net/static/wasm/wasm.css">

Add polyfill script tags needed to address compatibility with browsers that don't support ECMA6:
It must be in the html head element

Code Block

language	xml
theme	FadeToGrey

<script crossorigin="anonymous" src="https://polyfill.io/v3/polyfill.min.js?features=blissfuljs%2Cdefault%2Ces2015%2Ces2016%2Ces2017%2Ces2018%2Ces5%2Ces6%2Ces7%2CBlob%2CArray.prototype.forEach"></script>

Add the following scripts tags to the end of the body element using the previously obtained url:

Code Block

language	xml
theme	FadeToGrey

<script type="text/javascript">   document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function(event) {     var ua = window.navigator.userAgent; if ( ua.indexOf("MSIE ") > -1 || ua.indexOf("Trident/") > -1) { alert('This website does not support your current version of your web browser') }   }); </script> <script type="text/javascript"> const WASM_URL = "https://kibe-stage-xx.kiusys.net/static/wasm"; </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://kibe-stage-xx.kiusys.net/static/wasm/wasm_load.js"></script>

Search Flights

When processing the form in order to redirect to KIBE, the <form> tag must include:

action: Target URL must be the KIBE´s domain.
method: Must be POST.

Example:

Code Block

language	xml
theme	FadeToGrey

 <form class="searcher" id="search-form" name="searchWidgetForm" action="https://kibe-dev-xx.kiusys.net/" method="POST">

Once the user clicks on submit button, the KIBE will gather all the parameters (Origin, Destination, Departure date, Return date - If it exists - , Adult quantity, Child quantity, Infant quantity) and will then process the request and display the results into the KIBE´s environment. Once this process has been completed the regular booking-payment flow will be followed.

Suggested Validations

Despite of KIBE´s back-end validations, we strongly advice developers to pay attention to some other front-end validations that could help to process´ efficiency:

Origin - Destination:
The JSON API response returns routes enabled for search, this routes are configured on the KIBE´s back office. Based on this information, developers can allow only searches that include an origin with only those destination airports that match on response.
The value provided to KIBE must be the one given in the API under the name "data" and not the code.
Dates:
The supported date format is DD-MM-YYYY. Developers can display dates on different formats in order to make the user experience more comfortable, but they need to change dates on the mentioned format in order to avoid any validation error returned by KIBE.
Departure Date:
Departure date can be from the day in which the request is being made up to a maximum of 330 days in advanced.
ReturnDate:
The return date must not be before departure date and cannot exceed 330 days in the future.
Adult Passenger:
We recommend to set as default value for adult passengers in "1" and that it should not allow "0". This will prevent the creation of bookings for unaccompanied minors (this should be resolved on Airline offices).
Infant passengers:
According to industry logic, there should be only one infant passenger per adult passenger. If there is more than one infant per adult passenger, there must be more than one adult passenger for association purposes.
One way / Round trip:
The post of this value must be "one_way" with the value true or false depending if it is one way (true) or round trip (false)
