ghst

A light-weight http framework built for Deno.

Example of usage:

import {App} from "https://deno.land/x/ghst@ghst/ghst.js" // Documentation can be found at https://doc.deno.land/https/deno.land/x/ghst@ghst/ghst.js

const app = new App({
  middleware: []
});

app.makeRequest({path: "/",req_type: "GET"},(req,res) => {
  res.send("Hello World!");
});

app.start(8080);

Since this interacts with the web, use Deno run --allow-net file_name to run your code.

How to make middleware

To make middleware, setup a javascript file and github repository.

You need to export a function which accepts 2 parameters, the HTTPRequest object and the HTTPResponse object.

export function middleware_name(req,res){
  // Whatever you want the middleware to do!
}

Once you write your middleware, upload it to deno.

Using middleware

The App class has built in middleware.

const app = new App({
  middleware: [App.HTML] // Allows for you to type raw html into your res.send()
});

If you are using user-made middleware.

import {App} from "https://deno.land/x/ghst@ghst/ghst.js";
import {middleware_name} from "middleware_url";

const app = new App({
  middleware: [middleware_name]
});

Its important when using middleware that you do not call the function.
