An Example

The only requirement of an Aqueduct application is that it contains a single RequestSink subclass. The example application below exposes POST /notes, GET /notes, GET /notes/:id, PUT /notes/:id and DELETE /notes/:id and stores data in a PostgreSQL database.

import 'package:aqueduct/aqueduct.dart';

class AppRequestSink extends RequestSink {
  AppRequestSink(ApplicationConfiguration config) : super(config) {
    logger.onRecord.listen((p) => print("$p"));

    var dataModel = new ManagedDataModel.fromCurrentMirrorSystem();
    var psc = new PostgreSQLPersistentStore.fromConnectionInfo(
        "dart", "dart", "localhost", 5432, "dart_test");

    ManagedContext.defaultContext = new ManagedContext(dataModel, psc);
  }

  @override
  void setupRouter(Router router) {
    router
      .route("/notes[/:id]")
      .generate(() => new ManagedObjectController<Note>());
  }
}

class Note extends ManagedObject<_Note> implements _Note {}
class _Note {
  @managedPrimaryKey
  int id;

  String contents;
}
