TypedUrls

A utility package for creating typed url addresses.

Installation

npm install @house-of-angular/typed-urls --save-dev

Features

• Supports route urls
• Supports query parameters
• Allows to specify the type of the query parameters
• Allows marking query parameters as required/optional

Usage

You can create an instance of typed url with urlFactory. Url factory will return an instance of class with url method that allows you to create an url based on provided blueprint.

import { urlFactory } from '@house-of-angular/typed-urls';

const url = urlFactory('http://api-domain/users');

// Logs "http://api-domain/users"
console.log(url.url());

Route Parameters

Based on provided value urlFactory will indicate whether any params in the url are expected. It will throw an error in case they are.

Example:

import { urlFactory } from '@house-of-angular/typed-urls';

const url = urlFactory('http://api-domain/users/:id');

// Logs "http://api-domain/users/1234"
console.log(url.url({ id: '1234' }));


const multipleParamsUrl = urlFactory('http://api-domain/users/:id/achievements/:achievementId');

// Logs "http://api-domain/users/1234/achievements/533"
console.log(multipleParamsUrl.url({ id: '1234', achievementId: '533' }));

Query Parameters

Url factory automatically retrieves expected query parameters from the url. The value of the parameter should be set to its type.

List of Available Types:

• string
• number
• boolean
• array\<type> (e.g. array\<string>, array\<array\<number>>)
• object
• any

Example:

import { urlFactory } from '@house-of-angular/typed-urls';

const url = urlFactory('http://api-domain/products?limit=number&sorting=string');

// Logs "http://api-domain/products?limit=5&sorting=asc"
console.log(url.url({ limit: 5, sorting: 'asc' }));

All query parameters are optional by default. To mark param as required add an exclamation mark after parameter type.

Example:

const url = urlFactory('http://api-domain/products?limit=number&sorting=string!')

In the example above:

• limit parameter is optional
• sorting parameter is required

Combination of Parameters

Library allows combination of both parameter types in single url.

Example:

import { urlFactory } from '@house-of-angular/typed-urls';

const url = urlFactory('http://api-domain/users/:id/achievements?limit=number&sorting=string');

// Logs "http://api-domain/users/1/achievements?limit=5&sorting=asc"
console.log(url.url({ id: 1 }, { limit: 5, sorting: 'asc' }));
