Generate API Route

Generate API Route

Create API route handlers for either Express (Angular SSR) or Analog.js.

Arguments

• First argument: Framework - "express" or "analog"
• Second argument: Route name (e.g., "health", "custom-endpoint")

For Express (Angular SSR)

Create handler in apps/​cms-admin/​src/​api/<route-name>.ts:

import { Router, Request, Response } from 'express';
import type { CollectionConfig } from '@momentumcms/​core';

export function create<PascalName>Routes(collections: CollectionConfig[]): Router {
  const router = Router();

  router.get('/<route-name>', async (req: Request, res: Response) => {
    try {
      // Implementation
      res.json({ success: true });
    } catch (error) {
      res.status(500).json({ error: 'Internal server error' });
    }
  });

  return router;
}

Register in apps/​cms-admin/​src/​server.ts:

import { create<PascalName>Routes } from './​api/<route-name>';

app.use('/​api', create<PascalName>Routes(collections));

For Analog.js

Create file-based route in src/​server/​routes/​api/<route-name>.get.ts:

import { defineEventHandler, getQuery } from 'h3';

export default defineEventHandler(async (event) => {
	const query = getQuery(event);

	try {
		// Implementation
		return { success: true };
	} catch (error) {
		throw createError({
			statusCode: 500,
			statusMessage: 'Internal server error',
		});
	}
});

HTTP Method Suffixes (Analog.js)

• index.get.ts - GET request
• index.post.ts - POST request
• [id].get.ts - GET with dynamic param
• [id].patch.ts - PATCH with dynamic param
• [id].delete.ts - DELETE with dynamic param
• [...].ts - Catch-all route
