Autoload express routes.

Automatically load expressJS routes from a directory.

Supports setting a path directory and allows recursive loading from a directory and sub-directories.

Installation

npm install expressjs.routes.autoload --save

Usage javascript

const { RoutesLoader } = require('expressjs.routes.autoload');
app.use(RoutesLoader(path.join(__dirname, './routes'), true));

Put your routes files within the ./routes directory and add routes in individual files like this:

module.exports = function(router){

	router.get('/', function(req, res) {
		res.json({hello:'world'});
	});

	return router;
}

Usage typescript

import { RoutesLoader } from 'expressjs.routes.autoload';
app.use(RoutesLoader(path.join(__dirname, './routes'), true));

Put your routes files within the ./routes directory and add routes in individual files like this:

import { Request, Response, Router } from 'express';

export default function (router: Router): Router {

    router.get('/', (_req: Request, res: Response) => {
        res.json({hello:'world'});
    });

    return router;
}

Please make sure that all files and routes in the routes directory are in the specified format in order to work.

Feel free to create your own hierarchy of files or directories!

Ex:

routes/api/item/get.js
routes/api/item/post.js

or 

routes/api_item_get.js
routes/api_item_delete.js
