Custom API endpoint

[robi]

what does the app log say?

[ruihildt]

It's a standard 404, the route is not registered. It seems the file is not taken into consideration by Directus.

The entrypoint of your endpoint is the index file inside the src/ folder of your extension package.

Try moving the index into test-endpoint/src/

@robi Same result.

check their forum/github issues?

Have you tried to give it an explicit id as mentioned in the docs?

[ruihildt]

Just tried, no dice.

I appreciate you're trying to help by asking me to do the basic checks, but the reason I ask for support here is because the whole plugin integration in Cloudron is different from the standard. (I started by checking the docs and other threads)

The closest I could find on the forum is someone struggling but then not answering @girish when asked for more details and this one where placing the files in the correct spots just worked.

@ruihildt This works for me:

• First , create index.mjs (export keyword requires module support which is signaled by mjs extension)

• Then , in index.mjs, I have:

export default {
	id: 'helloworld',
	handler: (router) => {
		router.get('/', (req, res) => res.send('Hello, World!'));
		router.get('/intro', (req, res) => res.send('Nice to meet you.'));
		router.get('/goodbye', (req, res) => res.send('Goodbye!'));
	},
};

*IMPORTANT: Note the id above. This is the REST API route path

• Then, visiting via browser works:

/helloworld/goodbye and /helloworld/goodbye also works fine.

AFAICT, it's very much the same as the standard. The docs are not very clear and I had to tinker a bit to make it work . For example, it talks about some src subdirectory, I am not sure what that is. It says index, but it's actually index.mjs . So, there's a bunch of errors in their docs.

[ruihildt]

Thank you for helping me make it work.

Strange this .mjs thing with them, I'm going to open an issue with them.

I too have done exactly like this but the response is still "{"errors":[{"message":"Route /helloworld doesn't exist.","extensions":{"path":"/helloworld","code":"ROUTE_NOT_FOUND"}}]}" any idea why
