Write Express middleware and route handlers using async/await
const { addAsync } = require('@awaitjs/express');
// Or, if you want to use `wrap()`
const { wrap } = require('@awaitjs/express');
The addAsync()
function is the preferred way to add async/await
support to your Express app. This function adds several helper functions
to your Express app.
useAsync()
, getAsync()
, etc. to your Express appThe addAsync()
function adds useAsync()
, deleteAsync()
, getAsync()
,
headAsync()
, paramAsync()
, patchAsync()
, postAsync()
, and putAsync()
.
const express = require('express');
const app = addAsync(express());
// `useAsync()` is like `app.use()`, but supports async functions
app.useAsync(async function(req, res, next) {
await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 50));
});
// `getAsync()` is like `app.get()`, but supports async functions
app.getAsync('*', async function(req, res, next) {
throw new Error('Oops!');
});
// Because of `getAsync()`, this error handling middleware will run.
// `addAsync()` also enables async error handling middleware.
app.use(function(error, req, res, next) {
res.send(error.message);
});
const server = await app.listen(3000);
This module exports a Router()
function that is a drop-in
replacement for express.Router()
, except the returned
router has getAsync()
, useAsync()
, etc.
Router
function that returns a new async-friendly routerconst express = require('express');
const app = express(); // This app isn't async friendly.
const router = Router(); // But this router is.
router.getAsync('/foo', async function(req, res, next) {
throw new Error('Oops!');
});
app.use(router);
app.use(function(err, req, res, next) {
res.send(err.message);
});
const server = await app.listen(3000);
acquit:ignore:end
assert.equal(decorateApp, addAsync)
assert.equal(decorateRouter, addAsync)
If you need more fine-grained control than what addAsync()
gives
you, you can use the wrap()
function. This function wraps an async
Express middleware or route handler for better error handling.
const express = require('express');
const app = express();
// `wrap()` takes an async middleware or route handler and adds a
// `.catch()` to handle any errors. It also prevents double-calling
// `next()`.
app.get('*', wrap(async function(req, res, next) {
throw new Error('Oops!');
}));
// `wrap()` also supports async error handling middleware.
app.use(wrap(async function(error, req, res, next) {
throw new Error('foo');
}));
app.use(function(error, req, res, next) {
res.send(error.message); // Will send back 'foo'
});
const server = await app.listen(3000);
