Type alias GatewayControllerExtraOptions

GatewayControllerExtraOptions: {
    apiConfigSetting: string;
    headers: GatewayControllerHeaderOptions;
    root: string;
}

The extra options for the gateway controller. They are "extra" because they are mostly helpers for when used with an API client, or for optional features.

Type declaration

  • apiConfigSetting: string

    This is another option for when the gateway is used with an API client. When calling getAPIConfig, all the endpoints will be wrapped inside an object named after this option. For example: { url: '...', endpoints: { api: { ... } } }.

    Default

    'api'
    
  • headers: GatewayControllerHeaderOptions

    The options for how the gateway will handle the headers from the requests and the responses.

  • root: string

    This is really a helper for when the gateway is used with an API client. The idea is that, by default, the routes are mounted on the controller route, but with this option, you can specify another sub path. For example: The controller is mounted on /routes, and if you set root to gateway, all the routes will be on /routes/gateway.

    This become important (and useful) when you get the API client configuration (with getAPIConfig): The url will be the controller route, but all the endpoints will be modified and prefixed with the root, that way, you can have multiple gateways in the same "base route".

    It can also includes placeholders for parameters like /:parameter/, that will be replaced with the placeholders option when getAPIConfig gets called.

    Default

    ''
