Express
Under the hood, Vite.js uses express with body parsing and cookie parsing capabilities to start a web server and control it. Additionally, it uses Helmet to keep the server secure and functional so that you can focus on the development and leave these to Vite.js .
- Method 1
const app = require("vite.js").app;
- Method 2
const ViteJS = require("vite.js");
const { app } = new ViteJS({ name: "test" });
Example usage
const ViteJS = require("vite.js");
const { app } new ViteJS({ name: "test" });
app.use(function(req, res, next) {
req.session.name = "AlQaholic007";
console.log("Sample use of middlewares with vite.js");
next();
});
app.get("/", function(req, res) {
res.status(200).send("This works!");
});
app.post("/body", function(req, res) {
res.status(200).send(req.body);
});
app.get("/session", function(req, res) {
res.status(200).send(req.session.name)
});
Database
Vite.js leverages enmap and enmap-mongo to connect to your mongo database in a fast and easy manner.
- Method 1
const database = require("vite.js").database;
- Method 2
const ViteJS = require("vite.js")
const { database } = new ViteJS({ name: "test" });
Example usage
const ViteJS = require("vite.js");
const { database } = new ViteJS({ name: "test" });
database.set("AlQaholic007", "Vite.js");
console.log("Welcome to " + database.get("AlQaholic007") + "!");
