## Routes
2015-06-01 21:06:26 +00:00
2015-10-29 09:41:00 +00:00
In Kemal, a route is an HTTP method paired with a URL-matching pattern. Each route is associated with a block:
```ruby
2015-10-29 09:42:54 +00:00
get "/" do
2015-10-29 09:41:00 +00:00
.. show something ..
end
2015-10-29 09:42:54 +00:00
post "/" do
2015-10-29 09:41:00 +00:00
.. create something ..
end
2015-10-29 09:42:54 +00:00
put "/" do
2015-10-29 09:41:00 +00:00
.. replace something ..
end
2015-10-29 09:42:54 +00:00
patch "/" do
2015-10-29 09:41:00 +00:00
.. modify something ..
end
2015-10-29 09:42:54 +00:00
delete "/" do
2015-10-29 09:41:00 +00:00
.. annihilate something ..
end
```

## Environment
2015-10-29 09:41:00 +00:00
2015-10-30 20:40:37 +00:00
Accessing the environment (query params, body, content_type, headers, status_code) is super easy. You can use the environment returned from the block:
2015-10-29 09:41:00 +00:00
```ruby
# Matches /hello/kemal
2015-10-29 09:49:58 +00:00
get "/hello/:name" do |env|
name = env.params["name"]
2015-10-29 09:41:00 +00:00
"Hello back to #{name}"
end
# Matches /resize?width=200&height=200
2015-10-29 09:49:58 +00:00
get "/resize" do |env|
width = env.params["width"]
height = env.params["height"]
2015-10-29 09:41:00 +00:00
end
2015-11-06 18:49:08 +00:00
# Easily access JSON payload from the params.
# The request content type needs to be application/json
# The payload
# {"name": "Serdar", "likes": ["Ruby", "Crystal"]}
post "/json_params" do |env|
name = env.params["name"] as String
likes = env.params["likes"] as Array
"#{name} likes #{likes.each.join(',')}"
end
2015-10-29 09:41:00 +00:00
# Set the content as application/json and return JSON
2015-10-29 09:49:58 +00:00
get "/user.json" do |env|
2015-10-29 09:42:54 +00:00
kemal = {name: "Kemal", language: "Crystal"}
2015-10-30 20:40:37 +00:00
env.content_type = "application/json"
2015-10-29 09:41:00 +00:00
kemal.to_json
end
2015-10-31 08:03:55 +00:00
2015-10-30 20:40:37 +00:00
# Add headers to your response
get "/headers" do |env|
env.add_header "Accept-Language", "tr"
env.add_header "Authorization", "Token 12345"
end
2015-10-29 09:41:00 +00:00
```
2015-10-23 19:51:39 +00:00
2015-11-13 19:23:05 +00:00
## Middlewares
You can create your own middlewares by inheriting from ```HTTP::Handler```
```crystal
class CustomHandler < HTTP::Handler
def call(request)
puts "Doing some custom stuff here"
call_next request
end
end
Kemal.config.add_handler CustomHandler.new
```
2015-11-01 08:40:49 +00:00
## Static Files
2015-11-02 19:43:42 +00:00
Kemal has built-in support for serving your static files. You need to put your static files under your ```/public``` directory.
2015-11-01 08:40:49 +00:00
2015-11-02 19:43:42 +00:00
E.g: A static file like ```/public/index.html``` will be served with the matching route ```/index.html```.
