How to use manager.addRouteWrapper?

[austincummings]

Hi @luizmineo,

I'm trying to use addRouteWrapper to create shorthand route declarations. Ideally I would like to use them like so...

@Get('/user')
User getUser() => _user;

Right now I just have this and I can not get any further. No route is created, surely I'm using this wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

class Get {
    final String url;

    const Get(String this.url);
}

....

@Get("/test")
String testGet() {
    return '';
}

....

web.addPlugin((manager) {
    manager.addRouteWrapper(Get, (myAnnotation, pathSegments, injector, request, route) {
        print(myAnnotation);
        print(pathSegments);
        print(injector);
        print(request);
        print(route);
        return route(pathSegments, injector, request);
    });
});

You can't use a wrapper to create a route, it can only be applied to existing routes.

It's possible to search for functions annotated with your custom annotation, and create routes for them, although, you'll need to implement the parameter binding yourself.
