Route handlers

Sometimes you want a single endpoint for your users, for example /api/user and depending on the method used on the request act accordingly. For example, create an user with method POST, get users with method GET and more.

Normally you'd do that programatically like the following:

import { type RouteParams } from "htmv";

export default function UserEndpoint(routeParams: RouteParams) {
	const method = routeParams.request.method
	if(method === "GET") {
		// list users
	}
	if(method === "POST") {
		// create user
	}
}

Route handlers allow you to this in an easier way. Just have functions for each method!

import { type RouteParams } from "htmv";

export function GET(routeParams: RouteParams) {
	// list users
}

export function POST(routeParams: RouteParams) {
	// create user
}

Note how the default keyword was removed, that keyword is instead reserved for when you want to hit all endpoints (ALL method).

Supported methods currently are:

• GET
• POST
• PUT
• PATCH
• DELETE
• ALL (add default keyword)
