Readme
Aim of this library is to make express applications bootstrapping easy and fast with zero configuration.
Main principles:
To install package use command:
npm install arrow-express
Point of start for every application. It is used to register controllers and routes.
import Express from "express";
import { Application, Controller, Route } from "arrow-express";
const ExpressApp = Express();
const application = Application({
app: ExpressApp,
})
.registerController(
Controller()
.prefix("user")
.registerRoute(
Route()
.method("get")
.handle(async (req, res) => {
// get user and response
})
)
)
.configure();
ExpressApp.listen(3000);
registerController
- register controller in application.configure
- register routes in express app.Controller is used to manage group of routes under one prefix route.
import { Application, Controller } from "arrow-express";
function UserController() {
return Controller()
.prefix("user")
.registerRoute(
Route()
.method("get")
.handle((req, res) => {
// get user and response
})
);
}
Application({
app: ExpressApp,
})
.registerControllers(UserController())
.configure();
// Registered path will be: GET '/user'
handler(handler)
- register controller handler which will be used by all routesprefix(prefix)
- register controller prefix which will be used by all routesregisterRoute(route)
- register route in controllerregisterRoutes(...routes)
- register multiple routes in controllerregisterController(controller)
- register sub controller in controllerregisterControllers(...controllers)
- register multiple sub controllers in controllerRoute is used to manage route handling.
import { Application, Controller, Route } from "arrow-express";
Application({
app: ExpressApp,
})
.registerController(
Controller()
.prefix("user")
.registerRoutes(
Route()
.method("get")
.path("myself")
.handler(async (req: Express.Request, res: Express.Response) => {
const user = {};
// Use some service to extract route
return user;
})
)
)
.configure();
// Registered path will be: GET '/user/myself'
method
- register method used for routepath
- register path of route alongside with prefix it is used to create full pathhandler
- set request handler, here you can handle requestRoute handler receive 3 arguments:
request
- which is Express.Request for pathresponse
- which is Express.ResponseFeatures of route handler:
res
then library won't try to send result pf handler.If route handler throws RequestError
it will be handled by arrow-express
and respond with http code and response object.
import { RequestError } from "arrow-express";
throw new RequestError(401, {
code: 401,
message: "Unauthorized",
});

folder for example code guidance.
Good approach is to use function closures to organize code into chunks.
Eg: create function which will return Controller
and pass to it instance of service as argument instead of importing Singleton service.
This way you will be able to test routes and controllers with ease without module mocking and you will avoid side effects.
// index.ts file
async function startServer() {
const expressApplication = Express();
const userService = new UserService();
Application({
app: expressApplication,
})
.registerController(UserController(userService))
.configure();
expressApplication.listen(3000);
}
// user.controller.ts file
export function UserController(userService: UserService): ControllerConfiguration {
return Controller().prefix("users").registerRoutes(GetUserById(userService), GetMyselfRoute(userService));
}
