Koapi

RESTful API framework based on koa and bookshelf

Wriging a RESTful API have never been so easy!

Install

npm install koapi

Write your APIs in just 1 minute

Assume you have database below

Table posts

id	title	contents	created_at	updated_at
1	Title	Contents	2016-8-1	2016-8-1

Table comments

id	post_id	title	contents	created_at	updated_at
1	1	Title	Comment	2016-8-1	2016-8-1

Here we go!

app.js

import Koapi, { ResourceRouter } from 'koapi';
import extend, { initialize } from 'koapi/lib/model'

const app = new Koapi();

/****************** Connect to database ******************/
initialize({
  client: 'pg',
  connection: {
    host     : '127.0.0.1',
    user     : 'your_database_user',
    password : 'your_database_password',
    database : 'myapp_test'
  }
});



/****************** Model definition    ******************/
const Comment = extend({
  tableName: 'comments',
  hasTimestamps: true,
});

const Post = extend({
  tableName: 'posts',
  hasTimestamps: true,
  comments(){
    return this.hasMany(Comment);
  }
});




/****************** Implement Routers ******************/

// POST /posts
// GET  /posts
// GET  /posts/:id
// PATCH /posts/:id
// DELETE /posts/:id
// are ALL ready!
// YES! IT'S DEAD SIMPLE! RIGHT?
const posts = ResourceRouter.define(Post.collection());

const comments = ResourceRouter.define({
  collection: ctx => ctx.state.post.comments(),
  setup(router){
    // get post instance in context
    router.use(async (ctx, next) => {
      ctx.state.post = await Post.findById(ctx.params.post_id, {require:true});
      await next();
    });
    // method "crud" is a shortcut for create, read, update, destroy
    // YOU CAN ALSO USE MIDDLEWARE in create, read, update, destroy
    // AWESOME! RIGHT?!!!
    router.create(async(ctx, next) => {
      // you can do anything before create
      await next();
      // you can do anything after create
    });
    router.read(/* if you want, you can place any middlewares here */{
      filterable: ['created_at'], // filterable field
      sortable: ['created_at'], // sortable field
    });
    // comment may not have update
    // comments.update();
    router.destroy();
  }
});

// YES! Thanks to koa-router, nested router is supported
posts.use('/posts/:post_id/comments', comments.routes())



/****************** Start server      ******************/
app.bodyparser();
app.routers([ posts ]);

app.listen(3000);

run

babel-node app.js
