expressive-parser

Parse a raw javascript Object into a formatted routes object. (Used in Expressive.js and tools)

Example:

const routes = {
  root: {
    read: function(callback) {
      callback(null, 'index page')
    },
  },

  users: {
    create: function(user, callback) {},
    read: function(userId = '...user.id', callback) {},
  },
}

const parser = require('expressive-parser')
const router = parser(routes)

Output:

[ { path: 'root', params: [], type: 'read', fn: [Function] },
  { path: 'users',
    params: [ 'user' ],
    type: 'create',
    fn: [Function] },
  { path: 'users',
    params: [ '...user.id' ],
    type: 'read',
    fn: [Function] } ]

Custom terms:

const terms = {
  verbs: {
    create: 'post',
    read: 'get',
    update: 'put',
    delete: 'delete',
    list: 'options',
    auth: 'auth',
    
    // Partial terms are coming soon!
  }
}

const routes = {
  root: {
    get: function(callback) {
      callback(null, 'index page')
    },
  },

  users: {
    post: function(user, callback) {},
    get: function(userId = '...user.id', callback) {},
  },
}

const router = parser(routes, terms)

Output:

[ { path: 'root', params: [], type: 'get', fn: [Function] },
  { path: 'users',
    params: [ 'user' ],
    type: 'post',
    fn: [Function] },
  { path: 'users',
    params: [ '...user.id' ],
    type: 'get',
    fn: [Function] } ]
