TL;DR - A single file server

Configure a new Server instance and start listening on desired port.

import Server, { Logger, BaseRequest, BaseResponse } from 'ts-framework';

// Define a sample hello world route
const SampleRoutes {
  '/': async (req: BaseRequest, res: BaseResponse) => {
    res.success({ message: 'Hello world!' });
  }
}

// Define the server configuration
const server = new Server({
  port: process.env.PORT as any || 3000,
  routes: {
    get: SampleRoutes,
  },
});


// Startup the simple server
server.listen()
  .then(() => Logger.info(`Server listening on port: ${server.config.port}`))
  .catch(error => {
    console.error(error);
    process.exit(1);
  });
