Requests

Entropy provides a fluent API for dealing with web requests. The framework provides several ways to return responses. Each client request is represented by Request object.

Request Object

In order to get access to the request object, you need to explicitly define route request param of type Request:

      

        

        

        


        
src/users/user.controller.ts
      
import { HttpRequest } from '@entropy/http';
import { Controller, Route } from '@entropy/router';

export class UserController extends Controller {
  @Route.Get('/users')
  public index([], request: HttpRequest) {
    return this.render('users/index', {
      path: request.path(),
    });
  }
}

HTTP Methods

Entropy recognizes basically all available HTTP verbs / methods:

      

        

        

        


        
src/chats/chat.controller.ts
      
import { Module } from '@entropy/server';
import { ChatChannel } from './chat.channel.ts';
import { ChatController } from './chat.controller.ts';

export class ChatModule implements Module {
  public readonly channels = [
    ChatChannel,
  ];

  public readonly controllers = [
    ChatController,
  ];
}

Registering Modules

Every module should be registered in the src/main.ts file in modules section like so:

      

        

        

        


        
src/main.ts
      
import { createServer } from '@entropy/server';
import { RootModule } from './root.module.ts';

if (import.meta.main) {
  const server = await createServer({
    modules: [RootModule],
  });

  await server.start();
}
