Features

• A valid OpenAPI (formerly Swagger) spec (2.0 or 3.0 if you choose 😍) is generated from your controllers and models, including:
  • Paths (e.g. GET /users)
  • Definitions based on joi schemas
  • Parameters/model properties marked as required or optional based on joi schemas (e.g. joi.required() string is required in the OpenAPI spec)
  • jsDoc supported for object descriptions (most other metadata can be inferred from joi types)
• Routes are generated for middleware of choice
  • Express, Hapi, and Koa currently supported, other middleware can be supported using a simple handlebars template
  • Validate request payloads
• Inter microservice communication
  • NATS.io is used for bidirectional requests.
  • Supports KAFKA for unidirectional message streaming
• Support for Automatic crud api generation with Mongodb

Implementation

Create database model

const mongoose = require('mongoose');
const schema = new mongoose.Schema(
    {
        name: { type: String },
        description: { type: String },
        isDeleted: { type: Boolean, default: false }
    },
    { timestamps: true }
)

module.exports = mongoose.model('Company', schema);

Create module

config.js

const { MongoLookup, BaseConfigMongo } = require("@s7x/base-helpers/lib/types");

module.exports = new BaseConfigMongo({
    findExact: [ 'name', '_id' ],
    searchFields: ['name', 'description'],
    defaultMatch: { isDeleted: false },
    softDeleteKey: 'isDeleted',
    mapping: {},
    uniqueKeys: ['name'],
    lookups: [
        new MongoLookup({
            name: 'branches',
            from: 'branches',
            as: 'branchesData',
            localField: '_id',
            foreignField: 'branchId',
            multi: true
        }),
    ],
    defaultSortDirection: -1,
    defaultSortKey: 'updatedAt',
});

index.js

const { BaseMongo } = require("@s7x/base-helpers/lib/modules");
const config = require("./config");
const  Company = require('../../models/mongo/company');

class Module extends BaseMongo {
    constructor() {
        super(Company, config);
    }
}

module.exports = new Module();

Add Controller

const mainModule = require('../../modules/company');
const CrudContollerExpress = require('@s7x/base-helpers/lib/modules/crud-controller-express');

class Controller extends CrudContollerExpress {
    constructor() {
        super(mainModule);
    }
}

module.exports = new Controller();

Add Api definitions

const controller = require("./controller");
const CrudApi = require("@s7x/base-helpers/lib/modules/crud-api");
const joi = require("joi");

let crudApi = new CrudApi(controller)
let apiPath = 'companies';
let schema = {
    name: joi.string().required(),
    description: joi.string().allow('').optional(),
};
let routes = [
    crudApi.getCreateApi(schema),
    crudApi.getFindAllApi({
        ...validation.paginator
    }),
    crudApi.getFindByIdApi(),
    crudApi.getUpdateByIdApi(schema),
    crudApi.getreplaceByIdApi(schema),
    crudApi.getDeleteByIdApi({}, true)
]

module.exports = { basePath: `/${apiPath}`, routes }
