Important

This package is pure ESM. Ensure your package.json includes "type": "module" or configure your bundler appropriately.

Usage

Stone Router exposes a functional/declarative API that allows defining, composing, and dispatching routes easily. It is designed to be used in both server and client contexts, making it ideal for modern web applications that require a unified routing solution. It fully integrates with the event system of Stone.js through IncomingEvent and OutgoingResponse.

import { IncomingEvent } from '@stone-js/core'
import { defineRoutes } from '@stone-js/router'

export const routes = defineRoutes([
  {
    method: 'GET',
    path: '/users/:id',
    handler: async (event: IncomingEvent) => {
      return { body: `User ID: ${event.get('id') }` }
    }
  }
])
