Ultimate ExpressJS Wrapper

Tired of adding express, method-override, cors, compression, method-override etc. to all of your expressjs frameworks? Here is the solution:

const http = require("ultimate-expressjs");
const express = new http({ port: 3000 });

express.setRoutes = app => {
  app.get("/", () => req.json({ hello: "world" }));
};

express.listen().then(() => console.info(`Server started`));

Pretty cool isn't it?

Overriding setRoutes

In order to set your own routes, use the exaple code

express.setRoutes = app => {
  // access your expressjs instance through app parameter.
};

Overriding setErrorHandlers

In order to have your own commands for error handling (if you don't want to use default Boom):

express.setErrorHandlers = app => {
  // access your expressjs instance through app parameter
};

Custom logging Support

In order to use custom loggers as your default logger, please use the following code:

const customLogger = error => {
  // send data to anywhere you want.
};
const express = new http({ port: PORT, logger: customLogger });

Rate Limit Support

Just add limiterOptions object to ultimate expressjs constructor. This object will be used inside express-rate-limit. For more information about the object context, please refer to express-rate-limit npm package documentation.

Example usage of Coralogix with Rate Limiter using Redis:

const express = new http({
  port: process.env.PORT,
  logger: expressLogger,
  limiterOptions: {
    store: new RedisStore({
      client: require("redis").createClient(process.env.REDIS_URL)
    }),
    max: 10,
    delay: 0,
    windowMs: 1 * 60 * 1000
  },
  handler: (req, res, next) => {
    suspiciousLogger.addLog(
      new Coralogix.Log({
        severity: Coralogix.Severity.warning,
        className: "index.js",
        methodName: "rateLimiter",
        text: {
          message: `${req.headers["cf-connecting-ip"]} is sending too many requests`,
          query: req.query
        }
      })
    );

    next(Boom.tooManyRequests("You have exceeded your rate limit."));
  }
});
