Simple HTTP Router

Installation

1. Add the dependency to your shard.yml:

   dependencies:
     http-router:
       github: willhbr/http-router
   

2. Run shards install

Usage

require "http/server"
require "http-router"

class MyHander
  include HTTP::Handler
  include HTTP::Router

  @[HTTP::Route(path: "/stuff")]
  @[HTTP::Route(path: "/stuff", method: :HEAD)]
  def get_stuff(context)
    context.ok_json(result: "success!")
  end

  @[HTTP::Route(path: "/stuff", method: :POST)]
  def post_stuff(context)
    contents = context.request.body.get_to_end
    puts contents
    context.ok_json(result: "success!")
  end
end

This will generate a call(context) method like this:

def call(context : HTTP::Server::Context)
  req = context.request
  case { req.method, req.path }
  when { "GET", "/stuff" }
    self.get_stuff(context)
  when { "HEAD", "/stuff" }
    self.get_stuff(context)
  when { "POST", "/stuff" }
    self.post_stuff(context)
  else
    call_next context
  end
end

http-router doesn't support any destructuring of the path. Maybe you could send a PR for that.
