connect2
connect2 is an extensible framework for node using "plugins" known as middleware like connect.
var connect = require('connect2');
var app = connect();
app.use(function(ctx, req, res, next){
console.log('md1')
next()
});
app.use(function(ctx, req, res) {
console.log('md2')
})
function main() {
let context = {};
let req = {};
let res = {};
app(context, req, res);
}
main();
Getting Started
Connect is a simple framework to glue together various "middleware" to handle something like request, tcp, rpc.
Install Connect
$ npm install connect2
Create an app
The main component is a Connect "app". This will store all the middleware added and is, itself, a function.
var app = connect();
Use middleware
The core of Connect is "using" middleware. Middleware are added as a "stack"
where incoming requests will execute each middleware one-by-one until a middleware
does not call next()
within it.
app.use(function middleware1(ctx, req, res, next) {
// middleware 1
next();
});
app.use(function middleware2(ctx, req, res, next) {
// middleware 2
next();
});
Mount middleware
The .use()
method also takes an optional string that is matched against
the beginning of the data.
app.use('afunc', function fooMiddleware(ctx, req, res, next) {
// req.url starts with "/foo"
next();
});
app.use('bfunc', function barMiddleware(ctx, req, res, next) {
// req.url starts with "/bar"
next();
});
Error middleware
There are special cases of "error-handling" middleware. There are middleware
where the function takes exactly 4 arguments. When a middleware passes an error
to next
, the app will proceed to look for the error middleware that was declared
after that middleware and invoke it, skipping any error middleware above that
middleware and any non-error middleware below.
// regular middleware
app.use(function (ctx, req, res, next) {
// i had an error
next(new Error('boom!'));
});
// error middleware for errors that occurred in middleware
// declared before this
app.use(function onerror(err,ctx, req, res, next) {
// an error occurred!
});
API
The connect2 API is very similar to connect.
When the connect2
module is required, a function is returned that will construct
a new app when called.
// require module
var connect = require('connect2')
// create app
var app = connect([opts])
connect([opts])
The opts
object has three functions: finalHandler(ctx, req, res)
, dispatch(dispatchCtx, route, req)
and dispatchContext()
. The finalHandle
function must be return a function function(err){...}
. The returned function is the last function in connect2 middleware. It can handle error. The dispatch
function return a Boolean
value. if it return true
, call this middleware 's handle
or fn
, else skip. The dispatchContext
function return a object what pass to dispatch
function as first parameter. You can give some status in it. you can find whole declare in test\server.js
. The defaultRoute
function set route initial value. The app's default route is empty string
''
. You can change it to /
or anything you want. Hare are some code:
var app = connect({
finalHandler: (ctx, req, res) => {
return function(err) {
// do something
}
},
dispatch: (ctx, route, req) => {
return true;
},
dispatchContext: function() {
return {};
},
defaultRoute: function() {
// default value is `empty string`;
return '/';
}
})
app(ctx, req, res[, next])
The app
itself is a function. This is just an alias to app.handle
.
app.handle(ctx, req, res[, out])
Calling the function will run the middleware stack against the given Node.js
http request (req
) and response (res
) objects. An optional function out
can be provided that will be called if the request (or error) was not handled
by the middleware stack.
app.use(fn)
Use a function on the app, where the function represents a middleware. The function
will be invoked for every request in the order that app.use
is called. The function
is called with three arguments:
app.use(function (ctx, req, res, next) {
})
In addition to a plan function, the fn
argument can also be a Node.js HTTP server
instance or another Connect app instance.
app.use(route, fn)
Use a function on the app, where the function represents a middleware. The function
will be invoked for every request in which the string starts with
the given route
string in the order that app.use
is called. The function is
called with three arguments:
app.use('afunc', function (ctx, req, res, next) {
})
