Routing

Routes can be found in lib/routes folder. And api.dart is with prefix /api.

Supported routes

GETPOSTPUTPATCHDELETE

Route.get(routeName, controller.method)

Route.post(routeName, controller.method)

Route.put(routeName, controller.method)

Route.patch(routeName, controller.method)

Route.delete(routeName, controller.method)

Info

Other supported routes are COPY, HEAD, OPTIONS, LINK, UNLINK, PURGE, LOCK, UNLOCK and VIEW.

Param route

RouteController

Route.get('/blog/{id}', info);
Route.get('/blog/{id}/activate', activate);

info(DoxRequest req, String id) {
    /// your response here
}

activate(DoxRequest req, String id) {
    /// your response here
}

Group Routes

PrefixDomainMiddleware

Route.group(prefix, () {
    Route.get(path, controller.method);
    Route.post(path, controller.method);
});

Route.domain('dartondox.com', () {
    Route.get(path, controller.method);
    Route.post(path, controller.method);
});

Route.middleware([CustomMiddleware()], () {
    Route.get(path, controller.method);
    Route.post(path, controller.method);
});

Resource

Route.resource('blogs', BlogController());

Info

index, create, store, show, edit, update and destroy are controller methods. Check here documentation for generating resource controller.

Route with callback

Route.get('/ping', (DoxRequest req) => 'pong');

Route with controller

RouteController

var webController = WebController();
Route.get('ping', webController.pong);
/// or 
Route.get('ping', [webController.pong]);

class WebController {
    pong(DoxRequest req) async {
        return 'pong';
    }
}

Class based middleware

RouteMiddleware

var loggerMiddleware = LoggerMiddleware();
Route.get('ping', [loggerMiddleware, webController.pong]);

class LoggerMiddleware extends DoxMiddleware {
    @override
    handle(DoxRequest req) {
        /// write your logic here

        /// return DoxRequest back to continue next function (controller)
        return req;
    }
}

Info

To implement class-based middleware, you can create a new class that extends the DoxMiddleware class. Within this new class, you'll need to define a handle method where you can incorporate your custom logic.

Function middleware

RouteFunction

Route.get('ping', [authMiddleware, webController.pong]);

authMiddleware(DoxRequest req) {
    /// write your logic here

    /// return DoxRequest back to continue next function (controller)
    return req;
}

Info

To create function-based middleware, you can define a function that takes a DoxRequest parameter.

Route with multi-middleware

RouteClass based middlewareFunction middlewareController

Route.get('ping', [ loggerMiddleware, authMiddleware, webController.pong ]);

class LoggerMiddleware extends IDoxMiddleware {
    @override
    handle(IDoxRequest req) {
        /// write your logic here

        /// return DoxRequest back to continue next to the controller
        return req;
    }
}

authMiddleware(DoxRequest req) {
    /// write your logic here

    /// return DoxRequest back to continue next to the controller
    return req;
}

class WebController {
    pong(DoxRequest req) async {
        return 'pong';
    }
}
