dirigent v2.1.1

Dirigent

Simple router for expressjs with named routes and formatUrl helper function to genrate urls.

Bro, why?

All modules I tried needs app to be passed or have outdated path-to-regexp module.

Install

$ npm install dirigent

Usage

routes.js

const Dirigent = require('dirigent')

// controllers
const homeController = require('./controllers/home');
const searchController = require('./controllers/search');

const router = new Dirigent();

router.get('home', '/', homeController.index);
router.get('search', '/cars{/make-:make}?{/model-:model}?{/location-:location}?', searchController.index);

module.exports = router;

app.js

  app.use(router.middleware.bind(router));
  app.formatUrl = router.formatUrl.bind(router);

  console.log(req.params.id)
})
