Confusing example, auto prefixing

💬 Questions and Help

In the README there is the following example:

// index.js
fastify.register(AutoLoad, {
  dir: path.join(__dirname, 'services'),
  options: {}
})

// /services/items/get.js
module.exports = function (f, opts, next) {
  f.get('/:id', (request, reply) => {
    reply.send({ answer: 42 })
  })

  next()
}

// /services/items/list.js
module.exports = function (f, opts, next) {
  f.get('/', (request, reply) => {
    reply.send([0, 1, 2])
  })

  next()
}

My test: index.ts

server.register(AutoLoad, {
	dir: path.join(__dirname, 'modules/routes/v1'),
	options: { prefix: '/v1' },
	includeTypeScript: true
})

modules/routes/v1/domains/index.ts

module.exports = (server, opts, next) => {
	server.route({
		url: "/:url",
		logLevel: "warn",
		method: ["GET"],
		schema: {
			params: {
				id: { type: 'string', maxLength: 2 },
			},
			response: {}
		},
		handler: async (request, reply) => {
			return reply.send({ url: request.params.id, works: true });
		}
	});
	next();
};

Generated route: GET /v1/:url

Looking at the README, I was under the impression that this would load routes using the directories path. Am I doing something wrong or I interpreted that the wrong way?

I removed the fastify-plugin route and converted it to a more standard one, but it didn’t change anything it seems.

The issue is caused by directories without any js files, would you like to send a PR to fix this?

See https://github.com/fastify/fastify-autoload/blob/2deb5f00eb4ab6e8a6a16cac23983ca0f8f21443/index.js#L78.
