Default URI is always accessible about moleculer-web

I will do it.

Hi,
it's true, because alias is just an alias/shorthand for actions. It doesn't block anything.

Do you need a route option which blocks all URLs except the aliases?

[dani8art]

Yes, I think it would be a good solution.
Is it possible to do this?

[dani8art]

thank you!

[icebob]

Is the blockDirectCall option name describes this feature? What do you think?

[dani8art]

Yes, I think it would be a good name, it describes the feature.
If you allow me, I would like to propose you mappingPolicy.

{
  mappingPolicy: 'restrict' #Only aliases will be mapped
}
...
{
  mappingPolicy: 'include' #Only [aliase] xor [direct]. I don't know if it would be better 'xor'
}
...
{
  mappingPolicy: 'all' # [aliases] union [direct]
}

What do you think?

[icebob]

mappingPolicy is good. I like it. But I don't understand the include option. Do you have a use case for it?

[dani8art]

include or xor I don't know how to name this value. I want to describe the following use case:
You have 3 actions:
books.create
books.get
books.info
and you want to add aliases to books.create and books.get, but you want to map all of them.

{
  mappingPolicy: 'include',
  aliases: {
    'GET books': 'books.get',
    'POST books': 'books.create'
  }  
}

And the result will be:

• /books

  • POST
  • GET

• /books/info

  • POST
  • GET
  • UPDATE
  • DELETE
  • ...

[icebob]

Thanks. I added mappingPolicy with all and restrict. Currently the include is not implemented, it is not too easy. I'm still thinking about it.

Example
