Prism

A minimalist web framework, aimed to replicate ExpressJS.

Important

Prism might be in active development and currently does not support enough features to match ExpressJS. Also, it was written more for educational purposes rather than an actual replacement.

Installation

Prism is still not published as a package on the npm registry. ( I would do it after is becomes stable (usable).) So, for now, if you want ot use Prism, you need to build it from source by cloning the source code.

Usage

Usage is exactly similar to ExpressJs. ( Some parameters are different because Prism is written in Typescript instead of Javascript ).

// Import Dependencies
import cors from "cors";

// Initialize Prism
const app = prism();

// use() for middlewares
app.use(cors());

// GET method
app.get({
  path: "/about/:id",
  callbackFunction: (req, res) => {
    console.log("jrjr");
    console.log((req as any).params.id);
    res.send("I am the about page");
  },
});

// POST method
app.post({
  path: "/about",
  callbackFunction: (req, res) => {
    res.send("I am the about page");
  },
});

// Starting the HTTP Server
app.listen({
  port: 3000,
  callback: () => {
    console.log("Server is running on port 3000");
  },
});

TODO

• - Adding function for handling files ( Currently only GET, POST, PUT and DELETE methods are supported)
• - Add other methods that might be relevant ( PATCH and OPTIONS etc etc )
• - And security requirements that might be required

There are a lot of things that might be done/ improved . These are only a couple of things that I could think of.
