rs-regex-router

An implementation of request routing via a singular grouped regex (with support for path parameter extraction).

Features

• Design approach based upon this article.
• Implemented over a generic handler type allowing use with varying webserver crates.
• Extraction of path parameters which are then mapped as key/value pairs.
• A convenience macro for easily declaring routes.

Installation & Basic Usage

toml [dependencies] regex_router = "1.0.0"

An example using a unit handler type: ```Rust use regex_router::{RouterBuilder, route}; ...

let mut builder = RouterBuilder::<()>::new();

route!(builder; r"/example";; "GET" => ()); route!(builder; r"/test";; "GET" => ());

let router = builder.build().unwrap(); ```

An example declaring path parameters: ```Rust let mut builder = RouterBuilder::<()>::new();

route!(builder; r"/example/(\d+)"; "var1"; "GET" => ()); route!(builder; r"/test/(\d+)/(\d+)"; "var1", "var2"; "GET" => ());

let router = builder.build().unwrap(); ```

Dispatching against a router: Rust match router.dispatch("GET", "/example/500") { Some(route_match) => { // Call handler and return response. } None => { // No route match. Return 404. } };

An example implementation for hyper can be found here.
