@tsndr/aws-lambda-router v1.0.5

AWS Lambda Router

AWS Lambda Router is a super lightweight router (2.30 KiB) with middleware support and ZERO dependencies for AWS Lambda.

I worked a lot with Express.js in the past and really enjoyed their middleware approach.

This is a port of @tsndr/cloudflare-worker-router.

Usage

Simple Example

import Router from '@tsndr/aws-lambda-router'

// Initialize router
const router = new Router()

// Enabling buildin CORS support
router.cors()

// Register global middleware
router.use(({ req, res, next }) => {
  res.headers.set('X-Global-Middlewares', 'true')
  next()
})

// Simple get
router.get('/user', ({ req, res }) => {
  res.body = {
    data: {
      id: 1,
      name: 'John Doe'
    }
  }
})

// Post route with url parameter
router.post('/user/:id', ({ req, res }) => {

  const userId = req.params.id
  
  // Do stuff...
  
  if (errorDoingStuff) {
    res.status = 400
    res.body = {
      error: 'User did stupid stuff!'
    }
    return
  }
  
  res.status = 204
})

// Delete route using a middleware
router.delete('/user/:id', ({ req, res, next }) => {

  if (!apiTokenIsCorrect) {
    res.status = 401
    return
  }
  
  await next()
}, ({ req, res }) => {

  const userId = req.params.id
  
  // Do stuff...
})

// Listen AWS API Gateway Event
export const handler = (event, context) => {
  return router.handle(event, context)
}

and replace your index.ts / index.js with one of the following scripts

import Router from '@tsndr/aws-lambda-router'

const router = new Router()

// TODO: add your routes here

export const handler: APIGatewayProxyHandlerV2<APIGatewayProxyEventV2> = (event, context) => {
    return router.handle(event, context)
}

import Router from '@tsndr/aws-lambda-router'

const router = new Router()

// TODO: add your routes here

export const handler = (event, context) => {
  return router.handle(event, context)
