Appwrite Function Utils

This repository contains a set of utilities for Appwrite functions.

Installation

Features

Function Handler Types

Enabled type checking for your function handler by using the Function type.

JavaScript

/** type {import('appwrite-function-utils').Function} */
const handler = async (context) => {
  // Your function code
}

export default handler

TypeScript

import { Function } from 'appwrite-function-utils'

const handler: Function = async (context) => {
  // Your function code
}

export default handler

Router

The router function allows you to easily define routes for your function handler.

import { router, HttpMethod } from 'appwrite-function-utils'

export default router({
  routes: [
    {
      path: '/ping',
      methods: [HttpMethod.GET, HttpMethod.POST],
      handler: async (context) => {
        return context.res.send('Pong!')
      },
    },
  ],
  // override the default exception handler routes
  exception: {
    notFound: async (context) => {
      return context.res.send('Oopsy whoopsy doopsy no findy windy', 404)
    },
  },
})

Dev Server

The appwrite-function-utils dev command will start a local server that will listen for incoming requests and execute your function handler. Assuming your function handler is located in src/main.js, add the following script to your package.json file:

{
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "appwrite-function-utils dev src/main.js"
  }
}

You can use it in conjuction nodemon to automatically restart the server when you make changes to your function handler:

npm install --save-dev nodemon

{
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "nodemon --watch src --exec \"appwrite-function-utils dev src/main.js\""
  }
}
