@diotoborg/quaerat-voluptatum
Convenience plugin for Fastify that loads all plugins found in a directory and automatically configures routes matching the folder structure.
Installation
npm i @diotoborg/quaerat-voluptatum
Example
Fastify server that automatically loads in all plugins from the plugins
directory:
const fastify = require('fastify')
const autoload = require('@diotoborg/quaerat-voluptatum')
const app = fastify()
app.register(autoload, {
dir: path.join(__dirname, 'plugins')
})
app.listen({ port: 3000 })
or with ESM syntax:
import autoLoad from '@diotoborg/quaerat-voluptatum'
import { fileURLToPath } from 'url'
import { dirname, join } from 'path'
import fastify from 'fastify'
const __filename = fileURLToPath(import.meta.url)
const __dirname = dirname(__filename)
const app = fastify()
app.register(autoLoad, {
dir: join(__dirname, 'plugins')
})
app.listen({ port: 3000 })

Global Configuration
Autoload can be customised using the following options:
dir
(required) - Base directory containing plugins to be loadedEach script file within a directory is treated as a plugin unless the directory contains an index file (e.g.
index.js
). In that case only the index file (and the potential sub-directories) will be loaded.The following script types are supported:
.js
(CommonJS or ES modules depending ontype
field of parentpackage.json
).cjs
(CommonJS).mjs
(ES modules).ts
(TypeScript)
dirNameRoutePrefix
(optional) - Default: true. Determines whether routes will be automatically prefixed with the subdirectory name in an autoloaded directory. It can be a sync function that must return a string that will be used as prefix, or it must returnfalse
to skip the prefix for the directory.fastify.register(autoLoad, { dir: path.join(__dirname, 'routes'), dirNameRoutePrefix: false // lack of prefix will mean no prefix, instead of directory name }) fastify.register(autoLoad, { dir: path.join(__dirname, 'routes'), dirNameRoutePrefix: function rewrite (folderParent, folderName) { if (folderName === 'YELLOW') { return 'yellow-submarine' } if (folderName === 'FoOoO-BaAaR') { return false } return folderName } })
matchFilter
(optional) - Filter matching any path that should be loaded. Can be a RegExp, a string or a function returning a boolean.fastify.register(autoLoad, { dir: path.join(__dirname, 'plugins'), matchFilter: (path) => path.split("/").at(-2) === "handlers" })
ignoreFilter
(optional) - Filter matching any path that should not be loaded. Can be a RegExp, a string or a function returning a boolean.fastify.register(autoLoad, { dir: path.join(__dirname, 'plugins'), ignoreFilter: (path) => path.endsWith('.spec.js') })
ignorePattern
(optional) - RegExp matching any file or folder that should not be loaded.fastify.register(autoLoad, { dir: path.join(__dirname, 'plugins'), ignorePattern: /^.*(?:test|spec).js$/ })
indexPattern
(optional) - Regex to override theindex.js
naming conventionfastify.register(autoLoad, { dir: path.join(__dirname, 'plugins'), indexPattern: /^.*routes(?:\.ts|\.js|\.cjs|\.mjs)$/ })
maxDepth
(optional) - Limits the depth at which nested plugins are loadedfastify.register(autoLoad, { dir: path.join(__dirname, 'plugins'), maxDepth: 2 // files in `opts.dir` nested more than 2 directories deep will be ignored. })
forceESM
(optional) - If set to 'true' it always useawait import
to load plugins or hooks.fastify.register(autoLoad, { dir: path.join(__dirname, 'plugins'), forceESM: true })
encapsulate
(optional) - Defaults to 'true', if set to 'false' each plugin loaded is wrapped with fastify-plugin. This allows you to share contexts between plugins and the parent context if needed. For example, if you need to share decorators. Read this for more details.fastify.register(autoLoad, { dir: path.join(__dirname, 'plugins'), encapsulate: false })
options
(optional) - Global options object used for all registered pluginsAny option specified here will override
plugin.autoConfig
options specified in the plugin itself.When setting both
options.prefix
andplugin.autoPrefix
they will be concatenated.// index.js fastify.register(autoLoad, { dir: path.join(__dirname, 'plugins'), options: { prefix: '/defaultPrefix' } }) // /plugins/something.js module.exports = function (fastify, opts, next) { // your plugin } module.exports.autoPrefix = '/something' // /plugins/something.mjs export default function (f, opts, next) { f.get('/', (request, reply) => { reply.send({ something: 'else' }) }) next() } export const autoPrefix = '/prefixed' // routes can now be added to /defaultPrefix/something
autoHooks
(optional) - Apply hooks fromautohooks.js
file(s) to plugins found in folderAutomatic hooks from
autohooks
files will be encapsulated with plugins. Iffalse
, allautohooks.js
files will be ignored.fastify.register(autoLoad, { dir: path.join(__dirname, 'plugins'), autoHooks: true // apply hooks to routes in this level })
If
autoHooks
is set, all plugins in the folder will be encapsulated and decorated values will not be exported outside the folder.autoHooksPattern
(optional) - Regex to override theautohooks
naming conventionfastify.register(autoLoad, { dir: path.join(__dirname, 'plugins'), autoHooks: true, autoHooksPattern: /^[_.]?auto_?hooks(?:\.js|\.cjs|\.mjs)$/i })
cascadeHooks
(optional) - If usingautoHooks
, cascade hooks to all children. Ignored ifautoHooks
isfalse
.Default behaviour of
autoHooks
is to apply hooks only to the level on which theautohooks.js
file is found. SettingcascadeHooks: true
will continue applying the hooks to any children.fastify.register(autoLoad, { dir: path.join(__dirname, 'plugins'), autoHooks: true, // apply hooks to routes in this level, cascadeHooks: true // continue applying hooks to children, starting at this level })
overwriteHooks
(optional) - If usingcascadeHooks
, cascade will be reset when a newautohooks.js
file is encountered. Ignored ifautoHooks
isfalse
.Default behaviour of
cascadeHooks
is to accumulate hooks as newautohooks.js
files are discovered and cascade to children. SettingoverwriteHooks: true
will start a new hook cascade when newautohooks.js
files are encountered.fastify.register(autoLoad, { dir: path.join(__dirname, 'plugins'), autoHooks: true, // apply hooks to routes in this level, cascadeHooks: true, // continue applying hooks to children, starting at this level, overwriteHooks: true // re-start hook cascade when a new `autohooks.js` file is found })
routeParams
(optional) - Folders prefixed with_
will be turned into route parameters.If you want to use mixed route parameters use a double underscore
__
./* ├── routes ├── __country-__language │ │ └── actions.js │ └── users │ ├── _id │ │ └── actions.js │ ├── __country-__language │ │ └── actions.js │ └── index.js └── app.js */ fastify.register(autoLoad, { dir: path.join(__dirname, 'routes'), routeParams: true // routes/users/_id/actions.js will be loaded with prefix /users/:id // routes/__country-__language/actions.js will be loaded with prefix /:country-:language }) // curl http://localhost:3000/users/index // { userIndex: [ { id: 7, username: 'example' } ] } // curl http://localhost:3000/users/7/details // { user: { id: 7, username: 'example' } } // curl http://localhost:3000/be-nl // { country: 'be', language: 'nl' }
Override TypeScript detection using an environment variable
It is possible to override the automatic detection of a TypeScript-capable runtime using the FASTIFY_AUTOLOAD_TYPESCRIPT
environment variable. If set to a truthy value Autoload will load .ts
files, expecting that node has a TypeScript-capable loader.
This is useful for cases where you want to use Autoload for loading TypeScript files but detecting the TypeScript loader fails because, for example, you are using a custom loader.
It can be used like this:
FASTIFY_AUTOLOAD_TYPESCRIPT=1 node --loader=my-custom-loader index.ts
Plugin Configuration
Each plugin can be individually configured using the following module properties:
plugin.autoConfig
- Configuration object which will be used asopts
parametermodule.exports = function (fastify, opts, next) { console.log(opts.foo) // 'bar' next() } module.exports.autoConfig = { foo: 'bar' }
Or with ESM syntax:
import plugin from '../lib-plugin.js' export default async function myPlugin (app, options) { app.get('/', async (request, reply) => { return { hello: options.name } }) } export const autoConfig = { name: 'y' }
plugin.autoPrefix
- Set routing prefix for pluginmodule.exports = function (fastify, opts, next) { fastify.get('/', (request, reply) => { reply.send({ hello: 'world' }) }) next() } module.exports.autoPrefix = '/something' // when loaded with autoload, this will be exposed as /something
Or with ESM syntax:
export default async function (app, opts) { app.get('/', (request, reply) => { return { something: 'else' } }) } export const autoPrefix = '/prefixed'
plugin.prefixOverride
- Override all other prefix options// index.js fastify.register(autoLoad, { dir: path.join(__dirname, 'plugins'), options: { prefix: '/defaultPrefix' } }) // /foo/something.js module.exports = function (fastify, opts, next) { // your plugin } module.exports.prefixOverride = '/overriddenPrefix' // this will be exposed as /overriddenPrefix
Or with ESM syntax:
export default async function (app, opts) { // your plugin } export const prefixOverride = '/overriddenPrefix'
If you have a plugin in the folder you do not want any prefix applied to, you can set
prefixOverride = ''
:// index.js fastify.register(autoLoad, { dir: path.join(__dirname, 'plugins'), options: { prefix: '/defaultPrefix' } }) // /foo/something.js module.exports = function (fastify, opts, next) { // your plugin } // optional module.exports.prefixOverride = '' // routes can now be added without a prefix
plugin.autoload
- Toggle whether the plugin should be loadedExample:
module.exports = function (fastify, opts, next) { // your plugin } // optional module.exports.autoload = false
opts.name
- Set name of plugin so that it can be referenced as a dependencyopts.dependencies
- Set plugin dependencies to ensure correct load orderExample:
// plugins/plugin-a.js const fp = require('fastify-plugin') function plugin (fastify, opts, next) { // plugin a } module.exports = fp(plugin, { name: 'plugin-a', dependencies: ['plugin-b'] }) // plugins/plugin-b.js function plugin (fastify, opts, next) { // plugin b } module.exports = fp(plugin, { name: 'plugin-b' })
Autohooks:
The autohooks functionality provides several options for automatically embedding hooks, decorators, etc. to your routes. CJS and ESM
autohook
formats are supported.The default behaviour of
autoHooks: true
is to encapsulate theautohooks.js
plugin with the contents of the folder containing the file. ThecascadeHooks: true
option encapsulates the hooks with the current folder contents and all subsequent children, with any additionalautohooks.js
files being applied cumulatively. TheoverwriteHooks: true
option will re-start the cascade any time anautohooks.js
file is encountered.Plugins and hooks are encapsulated together by folder and registered on the
fastify
instance which loaded the@diotoborg/quaerat-voluptatum
plugin. For more information on how encapsulation works in Fastify, see: https://fastify.dev/docs/latest/Reference/Encapsulation/#encapsulationExample:
