Metadata-Driven Rapid Adapter Building

A system comprising:

• one or more hardware processors;
• one or more non-transitory computer-readable media;
• and
• program instructions stored on the one or more non-transitory computer readable media which, when executed by the one or more hardware processors, cause the system to perform operations comprising:
• receiving, by a rapid adapter building (RAB) framework, a function call from a third-party application;
• obtaining, by the RAB framework, a metadata document that defines an adapter between a server-side runtime and the third-party application;
• determining that the metadata document comprises one or more metadata fields that map the function call to one or more software development kit (SDK) functions exposed by the server-side runtime;
• responsive to receiving the function call and based on the one or more metadata fields, executing the one or more SDK functions exposed by the server-side runtime.

A method comprising:

• receiving, by a rapid adapter building (RAB) framework, a function call from a third-party application;
• obtaining, by the RAB framework, a metadata document that defines an adapter between a server-side runtime and the third-party application;
• determining that the metadata document comprises one or more metadata fields that map the function call to one or more software development kit (SDK) functions exposed by the server-side runtime;
• responsive to receiving the function call and based on the one or more metadata fields, executing the one or more SDK functions exposed by the server-side runtime;
• wherein the method is performed by at least one device including a hardware processor.
