express-routes-mapper
Advanced tools
This is a example for a simple rest API.
$ npm i -S express-routes-mapper
Create your routes file:
// es6
export default const routes = {
'POST /user': 'UserController.create'
}
//es5
module.exports.routes = {
'POST /user': 'UserController.create'
}
Every post request to your server to route '/user' will call the function 'create' on the 'UserController'.
Create a file named UserController.js
//es6
export default class UserController {
create (req,res) {
res.send('created a User with es6');
}
}
//es5
module.exports = {
'create': function(req,res){
res.send('created a User with es5');
}
}
I assume you have a folder structure like this, but it can be adapted to any folder structure.
.

| | +-- routes.js

| +-- controllers
| | +-- UserController.js

| +-- models

| app.js

package.json
Your app.js could look a bit like this:
The magic happens here:
import routes from './config/routes';
the file where all the routes are mappedimport route from 'express-routes-mapper';
the package that makes the mapping possibleapp.use('/', route(routes));
tell express to use the mapped routesimport express from 'express';
import http from 'http';
import routes from './config/routes';
import route from 'express-routes-mapper';
const app = express();
const server = http.Server(app);
const port = process.env.PORT || config.port;
app.use('/', route(routes));
server.listen(port, function() {
console.log('There we go ♕');
console.log(`Gladly listening on http://127.0.0.1:${port}`);
});
