Tide Fluent Routes   Build Status

Tide Fluent Routes is a fluent api to define routes for the Tide HTTP framework. At the moment it supports setting up paths, you can integrate middleware at any place in the route-tree and you can integrate endpoints. Some things that are possible with Tide-native routes are not (yet) possible; - Tide prefix routes are not implemented - you can not nest Tide servers

To use this you can import Tide Fluent Routes with use tide_fluent_routes::prelude::* it introduces theregisterextension method on theTide::Server to register routes from a RouteBuilder. A RouteBuilder can be initialized using the route() method. You can register simple endpoints like this; ```rust use tidefluentroutes::prelude::*;

let mut server = tide::Server::new();

server.register( root() .get(endpoint) .post(endpoint)); Fluent Routes follows conventions from Tide. All HTTP verbs are supported the same way. Paths can be extended using `at` but this method takes a router closure that allows building the route as a tree. A complete route tree can be defined like this; rust

server.register( root() .get(endpoint) .post(endpoint) .at("api/v1", |route| route .get(endpoint) .post(endpoint) ) .at("api/v2", |route| route .get(endpoint) .post(endpoint) ) ); ``` This eliminates the need to introduce variables for partial pieces of your route tree.

Including routes defined in other functions also looks very natural, this makes it easy to compose large route trees from smaller trees defined elsewhere; ```rust

fn v1_routes(routes: RouteSegment<()>) -> RouteSegment<()> { routes .at("articles", |route| route .get(endpoint) .post(endpoint) .at(":id", |route| route .get(endpoint) .put(endpoint) .delete(endpoint) ) ) }

fn v2_routes(routes: RouteSegment<()>) -> RouteSegment<()> { routes .at("articles", |route| route .get(endpoint)) }

server.register( root() .get(endpoint) .post(endpoint) .at("api/v1", v1routes) .at("api/v2", v2routes)); ```

With vanilla Tide routes it can be hard to see what middleware is active for what endpoints. Adding middleware to a tree is easy, and its very clear where the middleware is applied; rust server.register( root() .get(endpoint) .post(endpoint) .at("api/v1", |route| route .with(dummy_middleware, |route| route .get(endpoint) ) .post(endpoint) ) .at("api/v2", |route| route .get(endpoint) .get(endpoint) ), );

Serving directories is possible using serve_dir, this works the same as with normal Tide routes, fluent routes adds the serve_file convenience method for serving single files. ```rust use tidefluentroutes::prelude::*; use tidefluentroutes::fs::ServeFs;

let mut server = tide::Server::new();

server.register( root() .servefile("files/index.html") .at("img", |r| r .servedir("files/images") ) ); ```
