Usage

Basic Usage

1. Add a file named plus.js in your project folder api

export default async (context, req, res) => {
  const { data } = context
  const { a, b } = data
  return a + b
}

2. [Optional] Add a config file named plus.json in your project folder api

{
  "name": "plus",
  "parameters": {
    "a": {
      "name": "parameter a",
      "type": "number",
      "length": 3
    },
    "b": {
      "name": "parameter b",
      "type": "number"
    }
  }
}

3. Add the following code in your index.js file

import express from 'express'
import apiMiddleware from '@sumor/api-middleware'

const app = express()

await apiMiddleware(app, process.cwd() + '/api')

app.listen(3000, () => {
  console.log('Server is running on http://localhost:3000')
})

4. run index.js

node index.js

5. Test the api

curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/plus -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"a": 1, "b": 2}'

or use browser to open http://localhost:3000/plus?a=1&b=2

Options for apiMiddleware

import express from 'express'
import apiMiddleware from '@sumor/api-middleware'

const app = express()

await apiMiddleware(app, process.cwd() + '/api', {
  prefix: '/api',
  prepare: async context => {
    // do something before api
  },
  finalize: async (context, result) => {
    // do something after api
  },
  exception: async (context, error) => {
    // handle error
  }
})
app.listen(3000, () => {
  console.log('Server is running on http://localhost:3000')
})
