utopia http

Utopia HTTP Server #
Light and Fast Dart HTTP library to build awesome Dart server side applications. Inspired from Utopia PHP ecosystem.
Getting Started #
First add the dependency in your pubspec.yaml
dependencies:
utopia_http: ^0.1.0

Now, in main.dart, you can
import 'dart:io';
import 'package:utopia_http/utopia_http.dart';

void main() async {
final address = InternetAddress.anyIPv4;
final port = Http.getEnv('PORT', 8000);
final app = Http(ShelfServer(address, port), threads: 8);

app.get('/').inject('request').inject('response').action(
(Request request, Response response) {
response.text('Hello world');
return response;
},
);

await app.start();
}

Features #
Parameters #
Parameters are used to receive input into endpoint action from the HTTP request. Parameters could be defined as URL parameters or in a body with a structure such as JSON.
Every parameter must have a validator defined. Validators are simple classes that verify the input and ensure the security of inputs. You can define your own validators or use some of built-in validators.
Define an endpoint with params:
app
.get('/hello-world')
.param('name', 'World', Text(255), 'Name to greet. Optional', true)
.inject('response').action((String name, Response response) {
response.text('Hello $name');
return response;
});

curl http://localhost:8000/hello-world
curl http://localhost:8000/hello-world?name=Utopia
curl http://localhost:8000/hello-world?name=Appwrite
curl http://localhost:8000/hello-world
curl http://localhost:8000/hello-world?name=Utopia
curl http://localhost:8000/hello-world?name=Appwrite

It's always recommended to use params instead of getting params or body directly from the request resource. If you do that intentionally, always make sure to run validation right after fetching such a raw input.
Hooks #
There are three types of hooks:

Init hooks are executed before the route action is executed
Shutdown hooks are executed after route action is finished, but before application shuts down
Error hooks are executed whenever there's an error in the application lifecycle.

You can provide multiple hooks for each stage. If you do not assign groups to the hook, by default, the hook will be executed for every route. If a group is defined on a hook, it will only run during the lifecycle of a request that belongs to the same group.
app
.init()
.inject('request')
.action((Request request) {
print('Received: ${request.method} ${request.url}');
});

app
.shutdown()
.inject('response')
.action((Response response) {
print('Responding with status code: ${response.status}');
});

app
.error()
.inject('error')
.inject('response')
.action((Exception error, Response response) {
response.text(error.toString(), status: HttpStatus.internalServerError);
});

Hooks are designed to be actions that run during the lifecycle of requests. Hooks should include functional logic. Hooks are not designed to prepare dependencies or context for the request. For such a use case, you should use resources.
Groups #
Groups allow you to define common behavior for multiple endpoints.
You can start by defining a group on an endpoint. Keep in mind you can also define multiple groups on a single endpoint.
app
.get('/login')
.group(['api', 'public'])
.inject('response')
.action((Response response) {
response.text('OK');
return response;
});
copied to clipboard
Now you can define hooks that would apply only to specific groups. Remember, hooks can also be assigned to multiple groups.
app
.init()
.group(['api'])
.inject('request')
.action((Request request) {
final apiKey = request.headers['x-api-key'] ?? '';
if (apiKey.isEmpty) {
response.text('Api key missing.', status: HttpStatus.unauthorized);
}
});
copied to clipboard
Groups are designed to be actions that run during the lifecycle of requests to endpoints that have some logic in common. Groups allow you to prevent code duplication and are designed to be defined anywhere in your source code to allow flexibility.
Resources #
Resources allow you to prepare dependencies for requests such as database connection or the user who sent the request. A new instance of a resource is created for every request.
Define a resource:
app.resource('timestamp', () {
return DateTime.now().millisecondsSinceEpoch;
});
copied to clipboard
Inject resource into endpoint action:
app
.get('/')
.inject('timestamp')
.inject('response')
.action((int timestamp) {
final diff = DateTime.now().millisecondsSinceEpoch - timestamp;
print('Request took: $difference');
});
copied to clipboard
Inject resource into a hook:
app
.init()
.inject('timestamp')
.action((int timestamp) {
print('Request timestamp: ${timestamp.toString()}');
});
copied to clipboard
In advanced scenarios, resources can also be injected into other resources or endpoint parameters.
Resources are designed to prepare dependencies or context for the request. Resources are not meant to do functional logic or return callbacks. For such a use case, you should use hooks.
