flowaxis

A simple utility toolkit for handling API request data in Node.js / Express

flowaxis is a lightweight function-based utility that helps you clean, normalize, and structure incoming API data like req.query, req.body, and req.params.

It reduces repetitive request parsing logic and keeps backend controllers clean and consistent.

What is flowaxis?

flowaxis helps you:

• Clean API input data
• Normalize query parameters
• Handle filters and search inputs
• Structure pagination values
• Reduce repetitive request parsing code

It is designed for backend systems that want clean controllers without boilerplate logic.

Installation

Using NPM

npm install flowaxis

Usage

Basic Usage

const flowaxis = require("flowaxis");

const result = flowaxis(req.query);

console.log(result);

Express Example

const express = require("express");
const flowaxis = require("flowaxis");

const app = express();

app.get("/users", (req, res) => {
  const data = flowaxis(req.query);

  res.json(data);
});

app.listen(3000);

Why flowaxis?

Most backend APIs repeatedly implement:

• query parsing
• pagination logic
• filter building
• search handling

flowaxis standardizes all of that into a single clean utility function.

Use Cases

• REST APIs
• SaaS backends
• Admin dashboards
• Microservices
• MVP projects
