A fast API router with integrated caching system bundled with ApiServer
⚡ npm install apiserver-router
var Router = require('apiserver-router')
var UserModule = function (options) {
this.options = options
}
// will be translated into /1/random_photo_module/create_album
UserModule.prototype.createAlbum = function (request, response) { ... }
// will be translated into /1/random_photo_module/upload_photo
UserModule.prototype.uploadPhoto = function (request, response) { ... }
// private method, skipped
UserModule.prototype._checkFileExtension = function (request, response) { ... }
var modules = {
// API version
'1': {
// API resource
randomPhotoModule: UserModule
}
}
router.update(modules)
//simulate a request object
var fakeRequest = { pathname: '/1/random_photo_module/upload_photo' }
router.get(fakeRequest) // returns the associated chain
new Router()
Builds and caches the routes. You must call it every time a middleware or a module changes.
Router.prototype.update(modules[, middlewareList])
- modules - (
Object
) an hashtable of API modules - middlewareList - (
Array
) a list of middleware
...
var router = new Router()
router.update({
v1: {
user: {
signin: function (request, response) { /* function body */ },
signout: function (request, response) { /* function body */ },
signup: function (request, response) { /* function body */ }
}
}
}, [
{ route: /signup/, handle: randomMiddleware1 },
{ route: /sign/, handle: randomMiddleware2 }
])
...
This method returns a list of functions that will be executed with fnchain. The list will contain all the middleware active for the API endpoint reached by pathname
and as last ring of the chain the API method to execute.
Router.prototype.get(request)
- request - (
ServerRequest
) the request object already extended by the ApiServer
...
router.get(req)
...
