+## Route Helper
+
+Helper CRUD will also help populate route methods to cut down on repetition.
+
+**config.js**
+```js
+var crud = require('apx-helper-crud')
+
+module.exports = {
+  express: {
+    routes: [
+      {get: {path: '/myAction', file: 'actions/myAction.js', methods: crud.methods()}}
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+You can also supply additional routes to the methods helper.
+
+**config.js**
+```js
+var crud = require('apx-helper-crud')
+
+module.exports = {
+  express: {
+    routes: [
+      {get: {path: '/myAction', file: 'actions/myAction.js', methods: crud.methods(['extraAction','extraAction2'])}}
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Alternatively a string may be passed that will be added as a single method. Also a function may be passed that returns
+either a string or an array of methods.
