Fastify Integration

Use Wooks composables with Fastify. This adapter lets you register Wooks-style route handlers on top of an existing Fastify app — unmatched requests automatically fall through to Fastify's not-found handler.

INFO

Source code and issues: github.com/wooksjs/fastify-adapter

Install

bash
npm install @wooksjs/fastify-adapter @wooksjs/event-http wooks fastify

Quick Start

ts
import Fastify from 'fastify'
import { WooksFastify } from '@wooksjs/fastify-adapter'
import { useRouteParams, useRequest, HttpError } from '@wooksjs/event-http'

const app = Fastify()
const wooks = new WooksFastify(app)

// Return values become the response body
wooks.get('/hello/:name', () => {
    const { get } = useRouteParams()
    return { hello: get('name') }
})

// Async handlers work out of the box
wooks.post('/upload', async () => {
    const { rawBody } = useRequest()
    const body = await rawBody()
    return { received: body.length }
})

// Throw HttpError for error responses
wooks.get('/protected', () => {
    throw new HttpError(403, 'Forbidden')
})

app.listen({ port: 3000 }, () => console.log('listening on 3000'))

How It Works

WooksFastify extends WooksHttp and registers a catch-all route in Fastify. When a request comes in:

  1. Wooks checks if a matching route is registered
  2. If matched — the Wooks handler runs with full composable support
  3. If not matched — the request falls through to Fastify's not-found handler

This means you can use Wooks composables for your route handlers while still leveraging Fastify's plugin ecosystem:

ts
import Fastify from 'fastify'
import { WooksFastify } from '@wooksjs/fastify-adapter'

const app = Fastify()

// Wooks handles these routes
const wooks = new WooksFastify(app)
wooks.get('/api/users', () => {
    return [{ id: 1, name: 'Alice' }]
})

app.listen({ port: 3000 })

API

new WooksFastify(fastifyApp, options?)

Creates a new adapter instance and registers a catch-all route on the Fastify app.

Route Methods

ts
wooks.get(path, handler)
wooks.post(path, handler)
wooks.put(path, handler)
wooks.patch(path, handler)
wooks.delete(path, handler)
wooks.head(path, handler)
wooks.options(path, handler)
wooks.all(path, handler)

Handlers take no arguments — use composables to access request data:

ts
wooks.get('/users/:id', () => {
    const { get } = useRouteParams()
    const { method, url, rawBody, getIp } = useRequest()
    const headers = useHeaders()
    const response = useResponse()

    response.setHeader('x-custom', 'value')
    return { id: get('id') }
})

wooks.listen(...args)

Starts the Fastify server and returns a promise that resolves when listening.

ts
await wooks.listen({ port: 3000 })

wooks.close()

Stops the server.

ts
await wooks.close()

Available Composables

These come from @wooksjs/event-http and work inside any Wooks handler:

ComposablePurpose
useRequest()Request method, URL, headers, body, IP
useRouteParams()Route parameters (:id, etc.)
useHeaders()Request headers
useResponse()Set status, headers, cookies, cache control
useCookies()Read request cookies
useUrlParams()URL query parameters
useAuthorization()Parse Authorization header
useAccept()Check Accept header
useLogger()Event-scoped logger
