elf-routing v1.2.0

Elf Routing

Elf Routing is the routing solution for the Elf- suite. It provides utilities that make routing a TypeORM + Express app a breeze.

Methods

RegisterRoutes(app, resolveController, controllers, generatePermissionsFile)

The RegisterRoutes initializes the configured routes. The parameters are described below:

• app: The express app
• resolveController?: If you use Dependency Injection, provide a means to resolve a controller. If this is left undefined, a new instance of every controller is created every time it's needed.
• controllers?: A path to the controllers folder. Default value is src/controller
• generatePermissionsFile?: Generate a permissions file from methods that have the checkPermissions flag set to true via the Elf Authentication library. The permissions are written to a elf.permissions.ts file in the root folder.

Decorators

The following decorators are provided

@Controller(name)

Decorating a class with @Controller() makes it a controller. The name parameter specifies the route to be assigned to the controller.

@HttpPost(match)

Decorate a method within a controller class with this decorator to make it respond to POST requests. Use the match variable to specify a match pattern.

@HttpGet(match)

Decorate a method within a controller class with this decorator to make it respond to GET requests. Use the match variable to specify a match pattern.

@HttpPut(match)

Decorate a method within a controller class with this decorator to make it respond to PUT requests. Use the match variable to specify a match pattern.

@HttpPatch(match)

Decorate a method within a controller class with this decorator to make it respond to PATCH requests. Use the match variable to specify a match pattern.

@HttpDelete(match)

Decorate a method within a controller class with this decorator to make it respond to DELETE requests. Use the match variable to specify a match pattern.
