shelf_router_classes

An easier way to declare and use routes for the shelf and shelf_router packages using classes and Route annotations. It handles all the declaration automatically and no code generation is required.

Installation

Add shelf_router_classes as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file.

Usage

The usage is fairly simple. You first need to declare your routes using classes and @Route annotations as shown below:

import 'package:shelf/shelf.dart';
import 'package:shelf_router/shelf_router.dart';

class ExampleService {
  @Route('GET', '/example')
  Response getAllExamples(Request request) {
    return Response.ok('["1", "2", "3", "4"]');
  }
  @Route('GET', '/example/<number>')
  Response getSpecificExample(Request request, int number) {
    return Response.ok(number);
  }
  @Route('POST', '/example')
  Future<Response> postExampe(Request request) async {
    return Response.ok(await request.readAsString());
  }
}

After doing this, your first controller is ready. Now you can pass a reference of your class into getRoutersByClass. You can declare your router as below and serve it:

void main(List<String> arguments) async {
  Router router = getRoutersByClass([ExampleService]);
  await serve(logRequests().addHandler(router), 'localhost', 8080);
}

Now all the @Route annotations that you declared on top of your methods inside the classes passed into getRoutersByClass will automatically be declared inside your router and be served.

You can quickly test it by going to http://localhost:8080/example
