RubyGems.org Adds New Maintainer Role
RubyGems.org has added a new "maintainer" role that allows for publishing new versions of gems. This new permission type is aimed at improving security for gem owners and the service overall.
Composable trie based router. It's faster than traditional, linear, regular expression-matching routers, although insignficantly, and scales with the number of routes.
If you're looking for a client-side router check out sheet-router. If you're looking for a server router check out server-router.
$ npm install wayfarer
var wayfarer = require('wayfarer')
var router = wayfarer('/404')
router.on('/', () => console.log('/'))
router.on('/404', () => console.log('404 not found'))
router.on('/:user', (params) => console.log('user is %s', params.user))
router.on('/wildcard/*', (params) => console.log('wildcard path is %s', params.wildcard))
router('tobi')
// => 'user is tobi'
router('/uh/oh')
// => '404 not found'
router('/wildcard/example/path')
// => 'wildcard path is example/path'
Routers can be infinitely nested, allowing routing to be scoped per view. Matched params are passed into subrouters. Nested routes will call their parent's default handler if no path matches.
var r1 = wayfarer()
var r2 = wayfarer()
r2.on('/child', () => console.log('subrouter trix!'))
r1.on('/:parent', r2)
r1('/dada/child')
// => 'subrouter trix!'
Sometimes it's necessary to walk the trie
to apply transformations.
var walk = require('wayfarer/walk')
var wayfarer = require('wayfarer')
var router = wayfarer()
router.on('/multiply', (x, y) => x * y)
router.on('/divide', (x, y) => x / y)
walk(router, (route, cb) => {
var y = 2
return function (params, x) {
return cb(x, y)
}
})
router('/multiply', 4)
// => 8
router('/divide', 8)
// => 4
Initialize a router with a default route. Doesn't ignore querystrings and hashes.
Register a new route. The order in which routes are registered does not matter. Routes can register multiple callbacks. The callback can return values when called.
Matches a route and returns an object. The returned object contains the properties {cb, params, route}
. This method does not invoke the callback of a route. If no route matches, the default route will be returned. If no default route matches, an error will be thrown.
Match a route and execute the corresponding callback. Alias: router.emit()
.
Returns a values from the matched route (e.g. useful for streams). Any
additional values will be passed to the matched route.
Wayfarer is built on an internal trie structure. If you want to build a router
using this trie structure it can be accessed through
require('wayfarer/trie')
. It exposes the following methods:
trie = Trie()
- create a new trienode = trie.create(route)
- create a node at a path, and return a nodenode = trie.match(route)
- match a route on the the trie and return a nodetrie.mount(path, trie)
- mount a trie onto a node at routeE.g. /:foo/:bar/:baz
won't work. This is due Trie.mount()
overriding child
partial paths when mounted. I'll get around to fixing this at some point in the
future, but if anyone wants to contribute a patch it'd most appreciated.
Routers like react-router are complicated solutions for a simple problem. In reality all that's needed is a methodless router that can define + match paths and can mount other routers to delegate requests.
Wayfarer only compares strings. Before you pass in an url you probably want to strip it of querystrings and hashes using the pathname-match module.
