@tsndr/cloudflare-worker-router v3.2.10

Cloudflare Workers Router

Cloudflare Workers Router is a super lightweight router (1.0K gzipped) with middleware support and ZERO dependencies for Cloudflare Workers.

When I was trying out Cloudflare Workers I almost immediately noticed how fast it was compared to other serverless offerings. So I wanted to build a full-fledged API to see how it performs doing real work, but since I wasn't able to find a router that suited my needs I created my own.

// Env Types
export type Var<T = string> = T
export type Secret<T = string> = T

export type Env = {
    // Example binding to KV. Learn more at https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/runtime-apis/kv/

    //
    // Example binding to Durable Object. Learn more at https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/runtime-apis/durable-objects/

    ENVIRONMENT: Var<'dev' | 'prod'>

    SECRET_TOKEN: Secret
}

// Request Extension
export type ExtReq = {
    userId?: number
}

// Context Extension
export type ExtCtx = {
    //sentry?: Toucan
}

// Initialize Router
const router = new Router<Env, ExtCtx, ExtReq>()

// Enabling build in CORS support
router.cors()

// Register global middleware
router.use(({ env, req }) => {
    // Intercept if token doesn't match
    if (req.headers.get('authorization') !== env.SECRET_TOKEN)
        return new Response(null, { status: 401 })
})

// Simple get
router.get('/user', () => {
    return Response.json({
        id: 1,
        name: 'John Doe'
    })

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

    const userId = req.params.id

    // Do stuff

    if (!true) {

            error: 'Error doing stuff!'
        }, { status: 400 })
    }

    return Response.json({ userId }, { status: 204 })
})

// Delete route using a middleware
router.delete('/user/:id', ({ env, req }) => {
    if (req.headers.get('authorization') === env.SECRET_TOKEN)
        return new Response(null, { status: 401 })

}, ({ req }) => {

  const userId = req.params.id

  // Do stuff...

  return Response.json({ userId })
})

// Listen Cloudflare Workers Fetch Event
export default {
    async fetch(request: Request, env: Env, ctx: ExecutionContext) {
        return router.handle(request, env, ctx)
    }
}

Reference

router.debug([state = true])

Enable or disable debug mode. Which will return the error.stack in case of an exception instead of and empty 500 response. Debug mode is disabled by default.

state

State is a boolean which determines if debug mode should be enabled or not (default: true)

router.use([...handlers])

Register a global middleware handler.

handler(ctx)

Handler is a function which will be called for every request.

ctx

Object containing env, req

router.cors([config])

If enabled will overwrite other OPTIONS requests.

config (object, optional)

Supported Methods

• router.any(url, [...handlers])
• router.delete(url, [...handlers])
• router.get(url, [...handlers])
• router.head(url, [...handlers])
• router.options(url, [...handlers])
• router.patch(url, [...handlers])
• router.post(url, [...handlers])
• router.put(url, [...handlers])

url (string)

The URL starting with a /. Supports the use of dynamic parameters, prefixed with a : (i.e. /user/:userId/edit) which will be available through the req-Object (i.e. req.params.userId).

handlers (function, optional)

An unlimited number of functions getting ctx passed into them.

ctx-Object

req-Object
