Route not found

[ansarizafar]

Is there a way to add a handler if there is no matching route and a global handler for error/exception handling?
Is there any plan to support isolates?

Hi there @ansarizafar!
You can use the following the match any route that doesn't match:

void main() {
  var app = express();

  app.get('/', (req, res, _) {
    res.send('Hello, world');
  });

  app.all('*', (req, res, next) {
    res.send('No route found.');
  });
}

No official plans, but I'd love to add that feature in the future and open to anyone contributing to help make that happen!

can it serve static web pages?

@melWiss Yes, it can. You can use a few different template engines (Mustache or Jael) or you can use static HTML files.

It will search for HTML files in a top level views directory by default.

import 'package:dart_express/dart_express.dart';

void main() {
  var app = express();

  app.get('/', (req, res) {
    // This will render an "index.html" located in a "views" directory
    // views/index.html
    res.render('index');
  });

  app.listen(3001, (int port) => print('Listening on $port'));
}
