stages
This is a small utility to parse the Accept
header into an array of "stages", allowing a client to opt-in to functionality, like GitHub uses in the GraphQL API.
Install
$ npm install --save stages
Usage
stages(acceptHeaderString, regexPattern)
stages accepts two arguments: the Accept
header string, and a pattern to match against.
const stages = require('stages');
const accept = '*/*,application/vnd.github.antiope-preview+json,application/vnd.github.echo-preview+json';
const pattern = /application\/vnd\..*\.(.*)\+json/;
console.log(stages(accept, pattern)); // ==> ['antiope-preview', 'echo-preview']
Use stages in an Express app:
const express = require('express');
+ const stages = require('stages');
const app = express();
+ app.use((req, res, next) => {
+ req.stages = stages(req.headers.accept, /application\/vnd\..*\.(.*)\+json/);
+ next();
+ });
app.get('/', (req, res, next) => {
- return res.send('Hello');
+ if (req.stages.includes('echo-preview')) {
+ return res.send(`The <code>echo-preview</code> stage is enabled!`);
+ }
+ res.send(req.stages.length ? `The stages enabled are: ${req.stages.join(', ')}` : `No stages are enabled!`);
});
app.listen(3000);
+ // curl --header "Accept: application/vnd.github.echo-preview+json" http://localhost:3000/
