constructors

api

Create a top-level HttpApi layer.

Signature

export declare const api: <Id extends string, Groups extends HttpApiGroup.HttpApiGroup.Any, E, R>(
  api: HttpApi.HttpApi<Id, Groups, E, R>
) => Layer.Layer<
  HttpApi.Api,
  never,
  HttpApiGroup.HttpApiGroup.ToService<Id, Groups> | R | HttpApiGroup.HttpApiGroup.ErrorContext<Groups>
>

Added in v1.0.0

httpApp

Construct an HttpApp from an HttpApi instance.

Signature

  Effect.Effect<A, E, HttpServerRequest.HttpServerRequest | R>,
  never,
  HttpApi.Api | Router | Middleware
>

serve

Build an HttpApp from an HttpApi instance, and serve it using an HttpServer.

Optionally, you can provide a middleware function that will be applied to the HttpApp before serving.

Signature

export declare const serve: <R = never>(
  middleware?: (httpApp: HttpApp.Default) => HttpApp.Default<never, R>
) => Layer.Layer<

toWebHandler

Construct an http web handler from an HttpApi instance.

Signature

export declare const toWebHandler: <LA, LE>(
  layer: Layer.Layer<LA | HttpApi.Api | HttpRouter.HttpRouter.DefaultServices, LE>,
  options?: {
    readonly middleware?: (
      httpApp: HttpApp.Default
    ) => HttpApp.Default<never, HttpApi.Api | Router | HttpRouter.HttpRouter.DefaultServices>
    readonly memoMap?: Layer.MemoMap
  }
) => {
  readonly handler: (request: Request, context?: Context.Context<never> | undefined) => Promise<Response>
  readonly dispose: () => Promise<void>
}

Example

import { HttpApi, HttpApiBuilder, HttpServer } from "@effect/platform"
import { Layer } from "effect"

class MyApi extends HttpApi.make("api") {}

const MyApiLive = HttpApiBuilder.api(MyApi)

const { dispose, handler } = HttpApiBuilder.toWebHandler(
  Layer.mergeAll(
    MyApiLive,
    // you could also use NodeHttpServer.layerContext, depending on your
    // server's platform
    HttpServer.layerContext
