This module makes it easy to create routes connected with controllers actions in kind of 'rails' way

Install

Install this module with npm install --save express-controller-routes

Useage

Firstly, create folder where all of your controller files will be.

Name of controller file is controller name at the same time. For example file named UserController.js will create controller with name user

Inside controller file create actions this way

// myapp/controllers/UserController.js
exports.actionName = function(req, res) { /*your action code*/ };
exports.anotherActionName = function(req, res) { /*your action code*/ };

Then in your project file (index.js propably) define routes this way:

// myapp/index.js
var app = express(); //express app object

var router = require("express-controller-routes")

router(app, "controllers", function(ctrls, get, post, put, del){
    get("/user/:id", ctrls.user.actionName);
    post("/user/something", ctrls.user.anotherActionName);
    put("route...", ctrls.someController.someAction);
    delete("route...", ctrls.someOtherController.myAction);
    //etc...
});

First argument is Express appliaction object. Second argument is folder name where you hold all your controllers files. Third argument is your function that will add routes. This function takes those parameters (order is important)

• Object that will hold all your controllers with their actions
• Function name for adding get method routes
• Function name for adding post method routes
• Function name for adding put method routes
• Function name for adding delete method routes (name it different way than delete as it's reserved keyword
