A light-weight module to build restful api route with express

Thanks for @WinfredWang's article and his repo is https://github.com/WinfredWang/express-decorator

Install

npm install express-route-interceptor

Features

• Use @RoutePrefix to define rest api prefix for class.
• Use @Get/@Post/@Put/@Delete/@Patch to define rest api template for method.
• Use @Path/@Query/@Body/@Header/@Cookie to inject parameter's value.
• If query parameters are too many, you can set empty paramName for @Query like @Query("")queryData: any. Then queryData will contains all parameters.
• If you want to get specified parameter from body, you can set paramName for @Body like @Body("name")name:string. Then name will be filled if body contains key of name. But this is not recommended.

Quick Start

Create first restful api controller

interface IUserModel {
    name: string;
    age: number;
}
interface IPageModel {
    pageNo: number;
    pageSize: number;
}

@RoutePrefix("/api/users")
class UserCtroller {
    @Get("/:id")
    async get(@Path("id","number")id:number) {
        return `hello world ${id}`;
    }

    @Post("") 
    async post(@Body("")user: IUserModel) {
        return `hello ${user.name}`;
    }

    @Get("")
    async page(@Query("")page: IPageModel){
        return userService.page(page.pageNo,page.pageSize);
    }
}

Bind to your app

 import express from "express";

 import { RouteInterceptor } from "express-route-interceptor";

 const app = express();
 // bind to app and use json parser
 RouteInterceptor.bind(app, "json", [UserCtroller]);

 app.listen(8080,"localhost",()=>{});

API

Bind To Express App

Call bind method before app runs

• RouteInterceptor.bind(app: core.Express, parser: ExpressParser, cls: any[]): bind route metas, cls should be class array
• RouteInterceptor.use(app: core.Express, middleware: (req:Request,res:Response,next:NextFunction)=>{}): use custom middleware. call this before bind method.

Route Prefix

Define api base url prefix, like /api/users

• RoutePrefix(prefix: string)

Route Action

Define api action url template, like /:id or /man/:name

• Get(template: string)
• Post(template: string)
• Put(template: string)
• Delete(template: string)
• Patch(template: string)

Route Action Parameters

• Body(paramName: string, type?: "number" | "boolean" | undefined)
• Cookie(paramName: string, type?: "number" | "boolean" | undefined)
