Route Logger

The Route Logger is a development utility that provides a clear overview of all registered routes in your application. When the server starts, it prints a formatted, color-coded tree of all endpoints to the console.

This is incredibly useful for debugging and for quickly understanding the overall structure of your API.

Usage

Route logger is enabled by default

When you start your application, you will see output similar to this in your console:

┌─ /
│  ├─ / (GET)
│  └─ /hello/:name (GET)
└─ /api
   └─ /users (GET)

Configuration

enabled

If you don't want, just disable it.

  • Type: boolean
  • Default: true
typescript
import { routeLogger } from "@minimajs/server/plugins";
app.register(routeLogger({ enabled: false }));

logger

Allows you to provide a custom logging function to display the route tree.

  • Type: (message: string) => void
  • Default: A function that logs to the console.
typescript
import { routeLogger } from "@minimajs/server/plugins";
app.register(
  routeLogger({
    logger: (routes) => {
      console.log("--- Registered Application Routes ---");
      console.log(routes);
      console.log("------------------------------------");
    },
  })
);

commonPrefix

Determines whether to display routes with their full path or with the common prefix removed for a more compact view.

  • Type: boolean
  • Default: false
