Route matcher devised for shared rendering JavaScript applications

install

npm install -S @substrate-system/routes

ESM vs CJS

Featuring ESM or CJS versions via package.json exports field.

// esm
import Router from '@substrate-system/routes'

// cjs
const Router = require('@substrate-system/routes').default

example

Get a router instance

import Router from '@substrate-system/routes'
var router = new Router()

Add some routes

router.addRoute('/articles', getArticles);
router.addRoute('/articles/:slug', getArticleBySlug);
router.addRoute('/articles/search/*', searchForArticles);

// can also chain the method calls
router
    .addRoute('/foo', () => {/* ... */})
    .addRoute('/bar', () => {/* ... */})

Find a match

const match = router.match('/articles');
// => RouteMatch

The match object

interface RouteMatch {
    params:Record<string, string>;  // <-- e.g. { slug: 'article-title' }
    splats:string[];
    route:string;
    next?:((...any)=>any)|null;
    action?:(...any)=>any;
    index?:number;
}

You'll get null back if no route matches the provided URL. Otherwise, the route match will provide all the useful information you need inside an object.

next	Fall through to the next route, or null if no other routes match
