I am trying to use(log) the return object of a function without decalring multiple variables
How best can this be done following nodeJS
/Javascript
best practice.
Do I have to declare this variable multiple times as I know it by reference.
var configuredRoute;
configuredRoute = router.route('/api/v1/people')
.get(PersonController.all)
.post(PersonController.add)
logger.configured(configuredRoute.methods,configuredRoute.path)
configuredRoute = router.route('/api/v1/people/:id')
.get(PersonController.getOne)
.put(PersonController.update)
.delete(PersonController.remove)
logger.configured(configuredRoute.methods,configuredRoute.path)
configuredRoute = router.route('/api/v1/supervisor')
.get(auth.isAuthenticated(), PersonController.allSupervisors)
logger.configured(configuredRoute.methods,configuredRoute.path)
configuredRoute = router.route('/api/v1/people/status/:phone')
.get(PersonController.isRegistered)
logger.configured(configuredRoute.methods,configuredRoute.path)
I think you're asking how to call logger.configured
on the result of configuring each route without declaring more variables. One solution is to use anonymous functions to represent a route configuration:
//assuming logger and router are declared in this scope
function configureRoute(route) {
const {methods, path} = route(router)
logger.configured(methods, path)
}
const routes = [
router =>
router.route('/api/v1/people')
.get(PersonController.all)
.post(PersonController.add),
router =>
router.route('/api/v1/people/:id')
.get(PersonController.getOne)
.put(PersonController.update)
.delete(PersonController.remove),
router =>
router.route('/api/v1/supervisor')
.get(auth.isAuthenticated(), PersonController.allSupervisors),
router =>
router.route('/api/v1/people/status/:phone')
.get(PersonController.isRegistered)
]
for (const route of routes) {
configureRoute(route)
}
