Welcome to Kraken-js

Kraken-js is an exceptional and extensible Node.js framework that provides a powerful foundation for building web applications and services. It offers a modular architecture with a rich set of APIs to simplify development processes. Below are some of the key APIs and functionalities that Kraken-js offers:

Getting Started

  const kraken = require('kraken-js');
  const express = require('express');
  const app = express();
  
  app.use(kraken());
  
  app.listen(3000, () => {
    console.log('Server is running on port 3000');
  });

Configuration

Kraken-js allows you to configure your app using a JSON file. You can define different configurations for different environments like development, production, etc.

  {
    "development": {
      "port": 3000
    },
    "production": {
      "port": 8000
    }
  }

Middleware

Kraken-js supports middleware, which you can use to add additional functionality to your app:

  app.use((req, res, next) => {
    console.log('Request received');
    next();
  });

Routing

Define routes for handling different HTTP requests:

  const router = express.Router();
  
  router.get('/', (req, res) => {
    res.send('Home Page');
  });
  
  router.get('/about', (req, res) => {
    res.send('About Page');
  });
  
  app.use('/', router);

Security

Kraken-js provides several security features out of the box:

  const helmet = require('helmet');
  
  app.use(helmet());

Sample Application

Here’s a complete example that ties all the above APIs together:

  const kraken = require('kraken-js');
  const express = require('express');
  const helmet = require('helmet');
  const app = express();
  const router = express.Router();
  
  app.use(kraken());
  app.use(helmet());
  
  router.get('/', (req, res) => {
    res.send('Home Page');
  });
  
  router.get('/about', (req, res) => {
    res.send('About Page');
  });
  
  app.use('/', router);
  
  app.listen(3000, () => {
    console.log('Server is running on port 3000');
  });

We hope that you find this guide useful for starting with Kraken-js. Happy coding!
