jsx-serve

serve *.js and *.jsx files instantly over http.

Setup

  • Install js-serve: npm install js-serve
  • Prepare your view directory: mkdir ./views
  • Add *.js or *.jsx files, exporting a function (they now can return a Promise as well):
// ping.js

module.exports = function (ping) {
    return ping + " - pong ";
};
  • curl http://localhost:8080/ping.js?ping=testping returns testping - pong

Configuration

Order is of great importance, e.g. do not omit the port and the view folder if you want to specify the host.

js-serve <view-directory; default=./views> <port; default=8080> <host; default=localhost>

Logic

This module automatically imports all *.js and *.jsx files from the specified folder. It then validates that the exported objects are functions. Specified arguments (does only work when the functions are implemented using the function keyword) are then extracted - these will be required to be sent using query-parameters. Based on the folder-structure, the *.js and *.jsx files can be invoked using a basic HTTP GET request.

Planned Features

  • Support for functions that return Promises
  • Dynamic Argument Sources: body, headers
