API Routes

API routes let you create HTTP endpoints in your One app. Add +api.ts to the end of your filename and export handler functions for each HTTP method.

Basic Usage

app/api/hello+api.ts

export function GET(request: Request) {
  return Response.json({ message: 'Hello!' })
}

This creates an endpoint at /api/hello that responds to GET requests.

HTTP Methods

Export named functions for each HTTP method:

app/api/users+api.ts

export function GET(request: Request) {
  return Response.json({ users: [] })
}

export function POST(request: Request) {
  // handle POST
}

export function PUT(request: Request) {
  // handle PUT
}

export function DELETE(request: Request) {
  // handle DELETE
}

You can also export a default function as a catch-all:

export default function handler(request: Request) {
  return Response.json({ method: request.method })
}

Dynamic Routes

Use brackets for dynamic segments. Params are passed as the second argument:

app/api/users/[id]+api.ts

export function GET(request: Request, { params }: { params: { id: string } }) {
  return Response.json({ id: params.id })
}

Rest parameters work the same way:

app/api/files/[...path]+api.ts

export function GET(request: Request, { params }: { params: { path: string[] } }) {
  const filePath = params.path.join('/')
  return Response.json({ path: filePath })
}

Request Handling

Reading the Body

export async function POST(request: Request) {
  // JSON
  const json = await request.json()

  // Form data
  const form = await request.formData()

  // Raw text
  const text = await request.text()

  return Response.json({ received: true })
}

Query Parameters

export function GET(request: Request) {
  const url = new URL(request.url)
  const page = url.searchParams.get('page') || '1'
  const limit = url.searchParams.get('limit') || '10'

  return Response.json({ page, limit })
}

Headers

export function GET(request: Request) {
  const auth = request.headers.get('Authorization')

  return Response.json({ authenticated: !!auth })
}

Response Handling

Custom Status Codes

export async function POST(request: Request) {
  const data = await request.json()

  if (!data.name) {
    return Response.json({ error: 'Name required' }, { status: 400 })
  }

  return Response.json({ id: 1, ...data }, { status: 201 })
}

Custom Headers

export function GET(request: Request) {
  return new Response(JSON.stringify({ data: [] }), {
    headers: {
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
      'Cache-Control': 'public, max-age=3600',
    },
  })
}

Redirects

import { redirect } from 'one'

export function GET(request: Request, { params }: { params: { id: string } }) {
  return redirect(`/api/v2/users/${params.id}`)
}

Error Handling

export async function GET(request: Request, { params }: { params: { id: string } }) {
  const user = await getUser(params.id)

  if (!user) {
    return Response.json({ error: 'User not found' }, { status: 404 })
  }

  return Response.json(user)
}

Web Standards

API routes use the standard Web Request and Response APIs. TypeScript and Node >= 20 include these globally.

Type Helpers

One exports an Endpoint type for simple cases:

import type { Endpoint } from 'one'

export const GET: Endpoint = (request) => {
  return Response.json({ hello: 'world' })
}

For typed params, use createAPIRoute:

import { createAPIRoute } from 'one'

export const GET = createAPIRoute<'/api/users/[id]'>((request, { params }) => {
  // params.id is typed as string
  return Response.json({ id: params.id })
})
