Usage

First step:

Create a controller inherit BaseController.

HelloController.js

const BaseController = require('express-common-controller').BaseController;

function HelloController() {}

HelloController.prototype = new BaseController();

HelloController.prototype.index = function() {
  this.render("Hello World");
};

module.exports = HelloController;

Or Using ES6 style

import { BaseController } from 'express-common-controller';

class HelloController extends BaseController {
  constructor() {
    super();
  }

  index() {
    this.render('Hello World');
  }
}

export default HelloController;

Second step:

Create a router config like this:

const path = require('path');
const ExpressCommonControllerRouter = require('express-common-controller').default;

const router = new ExpressCommonControllerRouter();

router.path = path.join(__dirname, './js/controllers');

router.get('/hello', 'HelloController#hello');

module.exports = router.routes();

NOTE ExpressCommonControllerRouter based on ExpressCommonRouter. More info please refer to here:express-common-router

Third step:

Using routes config in server.js

const express = require('express');
const routes = require('./routes');
const app = express();

app.use(routes);

app.listen(3000, '0.0.0.0', (err) => {
  if (err) {
    console.log(err);
    return;
  }
});
