koa-router-skip-middleware v0.0.2

koa-router-skip-middleware

Provides utilities to skip upstream koa-router middlewares.

Installation

yarn add koa-router-skip-middleware

or

npm i koa-router-skip-middleware

Usage

Create a koa server

import Koa from "koa";
import Router from "koa-router";

const app = new Koa();
const router = new Router();

Import the utilities

import { skipable, skip } from "koa-router-skip-middleware";

Create a skipable middleware

const myMiddleware = skipable((ctx, next) => {
  ctx.state.myMessage = "Hello from myMiddleware";
});
router.use(myMiddleware);

Add routes

const handler = (ctx) => {
  ctx.body = {
    date: new Date(),
    message: ctx.state.myMessage,
  };
};

// Route with middleware
router.get("/", handler);

// Route without middleware
router.get("/skip", skip(myMiddleware), handler);

This works across nested routes as well 🎉

Note: The skipable middleware instance passed to router.use and to skip should be the same. In other words, following won't work because the two calls to skipable return different instances:

const middleware = (ctx, next) => {
  // ...middleware logic
  next();
};
router.use(skipable(middleware)); // skipable_instance_1
router.get("/skip", skip(skipable(middleware)), handler); // skipable_instance_2

// skipable_instance_1 != skipable_instance_2
