Uranus 🪐 Web Framework

A web framework written in TypeScript for the Deno Runtime. Inspired by Flask, Express.js and ASP.net. Uranus is a minimal and unopinionated web framework for the Deno runtime.

import { UranusHTTP } from "../mod.ts";

const port = 3000;
const app = new UranusHTTP(port);

app.get("/{name}", (req, res) => {
    res.html(`<h1>Hello ${req.parameters.name}!</h1>`);
});

app.start(() => console.log(`Listening on: http://localhost:${port}`));

Features

• HTTP Methods: GET, POST, DELETE, PUT and PATH
  • More are being implemented.
• Body and Header: Every endpoint has access to the header and body of a HTTP request
• URL Parameters: getting values out of the URL
• Middlewares: Universal middlewares executed for all endpoints, and middlewares specified per endpoint.
• Response Types: Multiple ways of responding to a request, think of files, JSON or redirecting.
• Cookie Support: Using cookies without touching the HTTP header.
• Serving Static files: Serve static file like .html with one function call.

Roadmap

What features are on the list to be implemented:

• Support for Files: Support for file uploads in requests. And files in the response (I.E. *pdf, *.md).
  • No need to install dependencies.
• Built-in Websockets: Built-in support for a websockets server.

Usage

To run an example:

1. deno run --allow-net --allow-read --allow-write helloworld.ts

To import the library:

1. Copy the uranusHTTP.ts file to your working directory.
2. Past this: import { UranusHTTP } from "./uranusHTTP.ts"; in your *.ts file.

Permissions

Currently Uranus 🪐 only uses these Deno permissions:

• --allow-net
• --allow-read
• --allow-write

--allow-net is the only permission it will always needs.
