typed-url-params

Types your URL parameters in compliance with Express.js router and https://github.com/pillarjs/path-to-regexp

Install

``
npm install typed-url-params
`

Usage

`ts
type Params = ParseUrlParams<"/test"> // { }
type Params = ParseUrlParams<"/:abc"> // { abc: string }
type Params = ParseUrlParams<"/:abc+"> // { abc: string | string[] }
type Params = ParseUrlParams<"/:abc*"> // { abc?: string | string[] }
type Params = ParseUrlParams<"/users/:userId"> // { userId: string }
type Params = ParseUrlParams<"/flights/:from-:to"> // { from: string, to: string }
`

Usage with Express

This library only offers typings. You must write your own wrapper for Express. You can do it like this:

`typescript
function handleGet(
app: Express.Application,
url: TypedUrl,
handler: (req: Express.Request & { params: ParseUrlParams }, res: Express.Response, next) => void
) {
// noop
}
`

More examples

`ts

import { ParseUrlParams } from "typed-url-params"

function assert(r: ParseUrlParams): asserts r is ParseUrlParams {}
