JETX a NodeJS HTTP routing library
just a tiny http server inspired by express
Motivation
Do you ever use express.js? well, it is the most popular NodeJs framework to build web service. This project is just a way to show how we can build a library like that, while also demonstrating how NodeJS work. It consists of a routing system and middleware only, nothing more. The routing part is run on top of my own simple EventEmitter container, and it just a single-segment URL pattern matching using array filtering, well that is bad, for demonstration purpose, I don't want to make it complicated. NodeJS itself has already provided the better EventEmitter package, but I just want to show, how the concept works.
Features
- Simple Routing
- Middleware
- Built in 404 error response
