Usage

const {
  // Needed async objects here from the table below
} = require('@cuties/rest')

This library provides following objects: Backend, RestApi, RequestBody, CreatedServingFilesEndpoint, CreatedCachedServingFilesEndpoint, ServingFiles, CachedServingFiles, CORSEndpoint and Endpoint, NotFoundEndpoint, IndexEndpoint, InternalServerErrorEndpoint interfaces.

Object Parameters(type) Description
Backend protocol, port(number), host(string), api(RestApi)[, options] It's AsyncObject. It Declares backend server with protocol(http or https) on specified port and host, also it provides declared api (REST). options is for options of the http/https server(it's optional).
ClusteredBackendWith505ErrorEvent domain, cluster, errorEvent, protocol, port, host, api[, options[, numberOfForks]] It's AsyncObject. It declares backend which based on clusters (Cluster API from Node.js) and also provides a way to handle any uncaught exceptions in the program via Domain module in Node(will be replace with other alternative solution from Node once it's released). For more details check example below.
RestApi ...endpoints(classes that extend Endpoint) Represents request-response listener. Declares endpoints of api.
RequestBody request Reads body of request in body(request, response) method of Endpoint implementation
RequestParams request Reads params of request in body(request, response) method of Endpoint implementation
RequestWithProgress request, response[, totalLengthHeaderName('content-length' by default)] Send progress to client via response.write while loading request body
Endpoint regexpUrl (RegExp), method(string)[, ...args] Declares an endpoint(in api) with url that matches regexpUrl and specified method('GET', 'POST', etc.). Also it's possible to pass some custom arguments via ...args. This class has a method body(request, response[, ...args]) that needs to be overridden and must return async object.
ServingFilesEndpoint regexpUrl (RegExp), mapper (function(url)), headers(additional headers to 'Content-Type' in response), notFoundEndpoint(Endpoint) Extends Endpoint and serves files on url that mathes regexpUrl with mapper function that gets location of a file on a disk by the url. Also it's required to declare notFoundEndpoint that handles the cases when a file is not found. You also can specify headers in response(no need to specify the 'Content-Type', library makes it for you).
CachedServingFilesEndpoint regexpUrl (RegExp), mapper(function(url)), headers(additional headers to 'Content-Type' in response), notFoundEndpoint(Endpoint) Does the same that ServingFilesEndpoint does and caches files on server side for increasing speed of serving them.
IndexEndpoint no args Endpoint that is used for representing index page.
NotFoundEndpoint regexpUrl (RegExp) Endpoint that is used in RestApi, ServingFilesEndpoint, CachedServingFilesEndpoint for declaring endpoint on 404(NOT_FOUND) status.
CORSEndpoint endpoint, { allowedOrigins, allowedMethods, allowedHeaders, allowedCredentials, maxAge } Enables CORS for specified endpoint and configuration (example)
InternalServerErrorEndpoint regexpUrl (RegExp, default is new RegExp(/^\/internal-server-error/)) Endpoint that is used for handling underlying internal failure(not for user error).
