express-urlrewrite
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
URL rewrite middleware for express.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
Rewrite using a regular expression, rewriting `/i123` to `/items/123`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
app.use(rewrite(/^\/i(\w+)/, '/items/$1'));
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Rewrite using route parameters, references may be named
|
|
or numeric. For example rewrite `/foo..bar` to `/commits/foo/to/bar`:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
app.use(rewrite('/:src..:dst', '/commits/$1/to/$2'));
|
|
app.use(rewrite('/:src..:dst', '/commits/:src/to/:dst'));
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You may also use the wildcard `*` to soak up several segments,
|
|
for example `/js/vendor/jquery.js` would become
|
|
`/public/assets/js/vendor/jquery.js`:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
app.use(rewrite('/js/*', '/public/assets/js/$1'));
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In the above examples, the original query string (if any) is left untouched.
|
|
The regular expression is applied to the full url, so the query string
|
|
can be modified as well:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
app.use(rewrite('/file\\?param=:param', '/file/:param'))
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The query string delimiter (?) must be escaped for the regular expression
|
|
to work.
|
|
|
|
## New in version 1.1
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
app.use(rewrite('/path', '/anotherpath?param=some'))
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
now updates req.query, so `req.query.param == 'some'`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## New in version 1.2
|
|
|
|
rewrite can be used as a route middleware as in
|
|
```js
|
|
app.get('/route/:var', rewrite('/rewritten/:var'));
|
|
|
|
app.get('/rewritten/:var', someMw);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Instead of passing control to next middleware, it passes control to next route.
|
|
