Express response presenter

CircleCI Coverage Status Known Vulnerabilities

Standardize ExpressJS JSON responses

Installation

Run npm i -S express-presenter

Usage

  • Import the package
    • const expressPresenter = require('express-presenter')
  • Instantiate express-presenter (it takes an optional apiVersion parameter)
    • const presenter = expressPresenter('v1')
  • Use it as a middleware (see the examples below)

Example

As any ExpressJS middleware, you can either use it globally:

// See: examples/simple-express-app.js
const express = require('express');
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
const expressPresenter = require('express-presenter');

const app = express();
const presenter = expressPresenter();

app.use(bodyParser.json());
app.use(presenter); // This must be before declaring your routes

app.use('/ok', (req, res) => {
  res.ok({
    message: 'Take my mhajeb',
    data: { name: 'Mhajeb', isHot: true },
  });
});

app.use('/created', (req, res) => {
  res.created({
    message: 'A new mhajeb is created',
    data: { name: 'Mhajeb', isHot: true },
  });
});

Or in your routes file:

// See: examples/express-routes-file.js

const express = require('express');
const expressPresenter = require('../src');

const router = express.Router();
const presenter = expressPresenter('v1'); // Here you can set your API version

router.get('/api/v1/get', presenter, (req, res) => {
  res.ok({
    message: 'Take my mhajeb',
    data: { name: 'Mhajeb', isHot: true },
  });
});

router.post('/api/v1/create', presenter, (req, res) => {
  // ... Creating mhajeb
  res.created({
    message: 'A new mhajeb is created',
    data: { name: 'Mhajeb', isHot: true },
  });
});

router.get('/api/v1/start-task', presenter, (req, res) => {
  res.accepted({
    message: 'I will start cooking Mhajeb',
  });
});

router.get('/api/v1/finished-eating', presenter, (req, res) => {
  res.noContent();
});

module.exports = router;
