express-controllers-routes

To convert expressjs into a MVC framework by adding controller-support. This module automatically set all routing according to your prefixes for all controllers.

So if we have to set multiple routing according to prefixes and want to setup code more clearly.

Like if we want to sepreate controllers for front site, admin panel and apis:

For admin: /admin/users

For general Users: /users

For api: /api/users

Installation

npm install --save-dev express-controllers-routes

Usage:

var express = require('express');
var expCtrl = require('express-controllers-routes');

//express-app
var app = express();

//Setup routing
var router = express.Router();
app.use(router);

expCtrl.bind(router, __dirname + '/controllers/admin', '/admin'); // For Admin Routing
expCtrl.bind(router, __dirname + '/controllers/site');            // For Front Site 
expCtrl.bind(router, __dirname + '/controllers/api', '/api');     // For API routing

Basic Example:

So we create a tests controller for admin Create a file controllers/admin/testsController.js

/**
 * Test Controller
 */

//Controller Exports
module.exports = {
    // Name of the controller by which all actions of it binds
    name: 'tests', 

    // Get Actions
    get:{
        //Action Index
        // Access via /admin/tests
        index : function(req, res) {        
            res.send("Tests Admin INDEX GET ACTION");
        },
        //Action List : /admin/tests/list
        list : function(req, res) {         
            res.send("Tests Admin LIST GET ACTION");
        },

        // Action for particular list: /admin/list:23
        'list:id': function(req, res) {
            res.send('Tests admin list: '+ req.params.id + 'Get Action');
        },
        // Action /admin/list/abc
        'list_abc': function(req, res) {
            res.send("Tests admin list/abc Get Action");
        }
    },

    //Post Actions
    post: {
        // POST Action for /admin/add
        add : function(req, res) {          
            res.send("Tests Admin ADD POST ACTION");
        }       
    } 
}
