hmr(server, webpackDevConfig);

CURD Modules

Encapsulate most reusable CURD actions into separated modules

Actions

One of the HTTP method handlers:

export default Model => ({
  list: (req, res) => {
    Model.find().sort('-creation_date').exec((err, result) => {
      if (err) {
        res.status(500).send(err);
        return;
      }

      res.json({ result });
    });
  },
});

It is simple to reuse any CURD actions:

export default actionCreator(model);

Routers

Common interface of CURD routers:

export default (routeName, model, action) => router => {
  router
    .get(`/${routeName}`, action.list)
    .get(`/${routeName}/:id`, action.get)
    .post(`/${routeName}`, action.new)
    .put(`/${routeName}/:id`, action.update)
    .delete(`/${routeName}/:id`, action.delete);

  return router;
};

Routes can be extended too.

export default routeCreator(ROUTE_NAME, model, action);

Models

However, the flexibility of mongoose model remains the same:

export const NAME = 'User';
export const ROUTE_NAME = 'users';

export const SCHEMA = {
  email: { type: 'String', required: true },
  display_name: { type: 'String', required: true },
  first_name: { type: 'String', required: false },
  last_name: { type: 'String', required: false },
  password_hash: { type: 'String', required: false },
  encoded_password: { type: 'String', required: false },
  phone: { type: 'String', required: false },
  creation_date: { type: 'Date', default: Date.now, required: false },
};

const schema = new mongoose.Schema(SCHEMA);

export default mongoose.model(NAME, schema);
