Plugin to handle routes in fastify automatically based on directory structure.

## :newspaper: **[Full Documentation](https://giovannicardamone.github.io/fastify-autoroutes/)**

[fastify-autoroutes](https://giovannicardamone.github.io/fastify-autoroutes/)

## :rocket: Install

```sh
npm install --save fastify-autoroutes
```

## :blue_book: Usage

### Register plugin

```js
const fastify = require('fastify')
const server = fastify()

server.register(require('fastify-autoroutes'), {
dir: './', // relative to your cwd
prefix: '/api', // optional, don't use if you do not need prefixes
})
```

### Create file in autoroutes directory

```js
//file: `/some/route.js`
//url: `http://your-host/some/route`

export default (fastifyInstance) => ({
get: {
handler: async (request, reply) => 'Hello, Route'
},
})
```

### Using typescript support for module

```typescript
//file: `/some/route.ts`
//url: `http://your-host/some/route`

import { FastifyInstance } from 'fastify'
import { Resource } from 'fastify-autoroutes'

export default (fastify: FastifyInstance) => {
get: {
handler: async (request: FastifyRequest, reply: FastifyReply) => 'Hello, Route!'
}
}
```

### Accepts params in autoroutes

> :information_source: file/directory name must follow syntax `:paramName` or `{paramName}`

```js
//file: `/users/{userId}/photos.js`
//mapped to: `/users/:userId/photos`

export default (fastifyInstance) => ({
get: {
handler: (request, reply) => {
reply.send(`photos of user ${request.params.userId}`)
}
},
})
```

## :arrow_forward: Route module definition

Method specification for attributes is available here: [Method specification](https://www.fastify.io/docs/latest/Routes/#full-declaration)

> :information_source: attributes `url` and `method` are dynamically provided

Allowed attributes mapped to Http methods in module:

- delete
- get
- head
- patch
- post
- put
- options

## :arrow_forward: Skipping files

to skip file in routes directory, prepend the `.` or `_` character to filename

examples:

```text
routes
├── .ignored-directory
├── _ignored-directory
├── .ignored-js-file.js
├── _ignored-js-file.js
├── .ignored-ts-file.ts
├── _ignored-ts-file.ts
├── ignored-js-test.test.js
└── ignored-ts-test.test.ts
```

> :warning: also any `*.test.js` and `*.test.ts` are skipped!

this is useful if you want to have a lib file which contains functions that don't have to be a route, so just create the file with `_` prepending character
