libhttp

HTTP service framework — ship a Hono service endpoint without reimplementing lifecycle, security headers, or health checks.

Getting Started

createHttpService owns the transport boilerplate (security headers, body limit, error envelope, /health, port binding, graceful stop()). The service mounts its routes through the configure callback:

import { createHttpService } from "@forwardimpact/libhttp";

const service = createHttpService({
  name: "example",
  config, // { host, port }
  logger,
  configure(app) {
    app.get("/hello", (c) => c.json({ hello: "world" }));
  },
});

await service.start();
// service.address() -> { port }
// service.stop()    -> graceful shutdown (runs optional onStop first)

Signal handling stays in the entry point (server.js), not the library:

for (const sig of ["SIGINT", "SIGTERM"]) {
  process.on(sig, () => service.stop());
}
