Reverse Routing

Access generated endpoint URL helpers.

Usage

endpoints(route = NULL, api = NULL, refresh = FALSE)

Arguments

route

the route group to retrieve endpoints from; typically defined either via the file name, routeName or route in plumber2. If NULL, will return all endpoints for all routes.

api

a plumber2::plumber2 api object. If NULL, context is used to find the api.

refresh

force refresh the registered routes. Useful if you have added routes after calling endpoints().

Value

If route is NULL, returns a list of route groups and their endpoints. Otherwise returns a list of a route's endpoint accessors.

Details

Alias rules:

• "/" endpoints become "index"

• GET endpoints are accessed directly, like index()

• non-GET endpoints require an accessor, like index$delete()

• path parameters are removed from the alias and used to disambiguate overloaded helpers via named function args

• Reserved argument: .query argument constructs a query from a named list

• Reserved argument: .anchor constructs an anchor from a character scalar

For example:

• GET / -> index()

• POST / -> index$post()

• GET /my/filter -> my_filter()

• GET /users/:id -> users(id = 1, .query = list(page = 2))

• GET /users/:id -> users(id = 1, .anchor = "details")

• GET /users/:id -> users(id = 1, .query = list(page = 2), .anchor = "details")

• DELETE /users/:id -> users$delete(id = 1)

• DELETE /users/:name -> users$delete(name = "Jim")
