kubrick-controller

How to Install

npm install --save kubrick-controller

Use with express

var kubrickController = require("kubrick-controller");
var express = require("express");

var app = express();

var controllers = kubrickController(app).bind(__dirname + "/controllers");

app.listen(3000);

Creating Controllers

Simple way

controllers/usersController.js

module.exports = {
    // GET method
    get: {
        // GET: /users/list
        list: function(req, res){
            res.end("Hello World");
        }
    },
    // POST method
    post: {
        // POST: /users/save
        save: function(req, res){
            res.json(req.body);
        }
    }
}

The route will be built according to the following structure

[base_path]/[controller_name]/[method_key]/

• base_path has default to: /
• controller_name is substracted from controller file name: [controller_name]Controller.js

How to define base_path

var base_path = "api";
kubrickController(app).bind(__dirname + "/controllers", base_path);

Above will result /api/[controller_name]/[method_key]

Route Params

You can define controllers with route params, for example:

controllers/usersController.js

module.exports = {
    // GET method
    get: {
        // /users/list/:param_name
        list: function(req, res, param_name){
            res.end(param_name);
        }
    }
}
