DocRouter

A Connect/Express router wrapper which exposes a formatted description of the available services of a server. The documentation is available is multiple formats (RestDoc Json, Html).

The usage mimics the regular router's behavior.

Retrieving the documentation

Two options:

Supported outputs

  • JSON (Accept: application/json)
  • HTML (Accept: text/html)

docRouter follows the RestDoc spec (https://github.com/RestDoc), RestDoc is a live spec so please expect chagnes over time.

Examples

var docRouter = require('docrouter').DocRouter;
var server = connect.createServer(docRouter(connect.router, "http://myservice.mydomain.com", function(app) {
    app.get('/:app', handleGetApp,
        {
            id: "GetApp",
            doc: "Gets the app",
            params: {
                app: {
                    style: "template",
                    type: "string",
                    required: true
                }
            },
            response: {
                doc: "Description of response body",
                example: "{ name: 'myApp' }"
            }
        });
    app.post('/:app', handleAddApp,
        {
            id: "UpdateApp",
            doc: "Updates the app",
            params: {
