Description
Currently writing controllers in Vapor requires manually getting values from Request and implementing the boot(routes:) function . The handler functions are in the body of the Controller while the path and middleware definitions are in the boot(routes:) function. Maybe it is a good idea to use swift macro to automate some of these steps and put handler functions and their corresponding path and middleware together.
For example:
struct Controller: RouteCollection {
func boot(routes: RoutesBuilder) throws {
routes.on(.GET, "hello", ":firstName", "lastName", use: self.sayHello(req:))
}
func sayHello(req: Request) throws -> String {
let firstName = try req.parameter.require("firstName", as: String.self)
let lastName = try req.parameter.require("lastName", as: String.self)
return "Hello \(firstName) \(lastName)"
}
}Can be written in something like:
@Controller
struct Controller {
@EndPoint(method: .GET, path: "hello", ":firstName", ":lastName")
func sayHello(firstName: String, lastName: String) -> String {
return "Hello \(firstName) \(lastName)"
}
}Here is an initial implement this idea in this repo, please have a check
