module-loader
Module Loader is a helper of Express framework, it can help to auto load modules and render routes and middleware by it self.
##How to use
update your express main js file, ex, app.js
var express = require('express');
var moduleLoader = require('../index');
var app = express();
moduleLoader(app).load('modules');
app.listen(3000);
console.log('server init listen 3000');
the module loader will help you load modules those under 'modules' folder.
Then you can put modules in 'modules' folder,
For example, there is a app1 module. the app1 folder structure is below,
├── index.js
└── routes
└── member.js
index.js file can allocate the route folder name, and reload global library.
index.jsi
module.exports = {
lib: [
'lib1'
],
route: 'routes'
};
the routes folder will be put the route setting files. the app1 module already put in a member route. That module loader will help you auto load these route / middleware file in modules.
module.exports = function (app, r) {
r.addRoute('', 'get', [
function (req, res) {
res.send('run index view');
}
]);
r.addRoute('', 'post', [
function (req, res) {
res.send('run index view:POST');
}
]);
r.addRoute('index/:id', 'get', [
function (req, res) {
app.lib.lib1();
app.lib.lib2();
res.send('run index/:id');
}
]);
r.addRoute('info', [
function (req, res) {
res.send('run info, and ignore METHOD parameter');
}
]);
};
##Module folder / file structure
├── app.js
├── lib
│ ├── lib1.js
└── modules
└── app1
├── index.js
└── routes
└── member.js
Help modules which build under Express, can auto load when web service started.
