import * as oak from "https://deno.land/x/oak@v14.1.0/middleware/serve.ts";

Middleware that converts the oak specific context to a Fetch API standard Request and Response along with a modified context providing some of the oak functionality. This is intended to make it easier to adapt code to work with oak.

There are two functions which will "wrap" a handler that operates off a Fetch API request and response and return an oak middleware. The serve is designed for using with the Application .use() method, while route is designed for using with the Router.

[!IMPORTANT] This is not intended for advanced use cases that are supported by oak, like integrated cookie management, web sockets and server sent events.

Also, these are designed to be very deterministic request/response handlers versus a more nuanced middleware stack which allows advanced control. Therefore there is no next().

For these advanced use cases, create middleware without the wrapper.

Classes

The context associated with serve middleware requests on a router.

The context associated when dealing with serve middleware requests on an application.

Functions

Wrap a handler function to generate middleware that can be used with an oak Router. This allows the handler to deal with a Fetch API standard Request and return a standard Response.
