A tree based url router with a similar API interface to radix.
Add this to your application's shard.yml:
dependencies:
amber_router:
github: amberframework/amber-routerrequire "amber_router"
route_set = Amber::Router::RouteSet(Symbol).new
route_set.add "/get/", :root
# A `:` at the start of a segment indicates a named parameter
route_set.add "/get/users/:id", :users
route_set.add "/get/users/:id/books", :users_books
# A `*` at the start of a segment indicates a glob parameter
route_set.add "/get/users/comments/*date_range"
# Supports storing multiple named arguments at the same position
route_set.add "/get/users/:user_id/books/:23", :user_book
# Predictably matches by insertion order so route overloads work as expected
route_set.add "/get/books/mine", :my_books
route_set.add "/get/books/:id", :book
route_set.add "/get/books/:id/chapters", :book_chapters
# Supports globs with a suffix
route_set.add "/get/posts/*post_name/comments", :wordpress_style
# Supports match-all globs.
route_set.add "/get/*", :catch_all
# Supports `Regex` based argument constraints
route_set.add "/get/posts/:page", :user_path, {"page" => /\d+/}
route_set.add "/get/test/:id", :user_path, {"id" => /foo_\d/}
route_set.find("/get/posts/1").found? # => true
route_set.find("/get/posts/foo").found? # => false
route_set.find("/get/test/foo_7").found? # => true
route_set.find("/get/test/foo_").found? # => false
# Supports returning an array of matches.
# Allows using custom logic based on each route's payload
# to determine if a match could be found
route_set.add "/user/:id", :user_get
route_set.add "/user/:id", :user_delete
route_set.add "/user/:id/posts", :user_posts_get
route_set.find_routes("/user/10").map &.payload? # => [:user_get, :user_delete]
# Finding routes from a payload:
route_set.find("/get/users/3").payload # => :users
route_set.find("/get/users/3/books").payload # => :users_books
route_set.find("/get/books/3").payload # => :book
# `RoutedResult` returns payload and named parameters
result = route_set.find("/get/posts/my_trip_to_kansas/comments")
result.found? # => true
result.params # => {"post_name" => "my_trip_to_kansas"}crystal run examples/benchmark.cr --release produces a comparison of this router and radix. As of now, this is the comparison:
