All the routes in Hunt framework are defined in your route files, which are located in the config/ directory. These files are automatically loaded by the framework. The config/routes file defines routes that are for your web interface.
For most applications, you will begin by defining routes in your config/routes file. The routes defined in config/routes may be accessed by entering the defined route's URL in your browser. For example, you may access the following route by navigating to http://your-app.test/user in your browser:
# method path controller.action
GET /user user.userRoutes defined in the config/api.routes file are nested within a route group by the api. Within this group, the /api URI prefix is automatically applied so you do not need to manually apply it to every route in the file.
The router allows you to register routes that respond to any HTTP request:
GET path module.controller.action
POST path module.controller.action
PUT path module.controller.action
DELETE path module.controller.action
HEAD path module.controller.action
OPTIONS path module.controller.action
PATCH path module.controller.action
Sometimes you may need to register a route that responds to multiple HTTP verbs. You may even register a route that responds to all HTTP request using the * method:
* path module.controller.action
Sometimes you will need to capture segments of the URI within your route. For example, you may need to capture a user's ID from the URL. You may do so by defining route parameters:
GET /block/{id<[0-9]+>} block.block.detail
Route groups allow you to share route attributes, such as middleware or namespaces, across a large number of routes without needing to define those attributes on each individual route.
All the route groups are defined in config/application.conf and are separated by a comma. Each group is consisted of three parts (separated by a colon): the goupe route name, the group type and the group name. There are two kinds of Route. One is path, which means all the routes are grouped by the path's name. The other is domain, which means all the routes are grouped by the domain name. For example:
route.groups = admin:path:admincp, api:domain:api.example.comThen, define all the route items in different group config files based on the goupe route name with an extersion .routes. For example:
config/admin.routes
config/api.routes
The Hunt framework can automatically respond to CORS OPTIONS requests with values that you configure. All CORS settings may be configured in your config/application.conf file:
http.allowOrigin=*
http.allowMethods=*
http.allowHeaders=DNT,X-CustomHeader,Keep-Alive,User-Agent,X-Requested-With,If-Modified-Since,Cache-Control,Content-Type
http.enableCors=true{tip} For more information on CORS and CORS headers, please consult the MDN web documentation on CORS.
