Hi all,
I am pretty new to JavaScript. My background is mostly C#. From my
understanding, the app.js should only be an initialization module. Correct?
What is the general rule of thumb or best pattern (If i can call it like
that) when segregating the routes in a NodeJS application?
I have seen this pattern many times and some people seems to like it.
[APP.JS FILE]
> app.configure(
> /*This will automatically grabs all the routes from the mentioned routes
> directory*/
> var files = fs.readdirSync(RouteDir);
> files.forEach(function (file) {
> var filePath = path.resolve('./', RouteDir, file);
> var route = require(filePath)(app);
> route(app);
> console.log("Route :" + file + " enabled");
> });
> );
But to be honest, I am really questioning this. Yes...it removes completely
the "coding" dependencies but it creates an even more dangerous one which
is the actual file structure of the directory since you have no control on
it in your code.
[APP.JS FILE]
> /**********************************************
> * Services Init
> **********************************************/
> var someService = require("./services/userService.js");
>
> /**********************************************
> * Routes Init
> **********************************************/
> require('./routes/someRoute').addRoutes(app, someService);
This one keeps a dependency (but at least you have control on it) and you
pretty much know WHAT is injected and WHERE it is.
Is it me who is just being wrong?
Thanks in advance for your advices,
LP
