handler

Reference

handler(req: http.IncomingMessage, res: http.ServerResponse): Promise<void>

The handler function is the user Brisa handler to handle the incoming requests. You can use it to create a custom server.

Example usage:

In the next example, we use the handler function to create a built-in http.createServer and set up your own custom server:

import http from "node:http";
import { handler } from "brisa/server/node";

async function customServer(req, res) {
  // Your implementation here ...
  await handler(req, res);
}

const server = http.createServer(customServer).listen(3001);

Alternatively, you can use the handler function to create a custom server with Express, Connect or Polka:

/// file: my-server.js
import { handler } from './build/handler.js';
import express from 'express';

const app = express();

// add a route that lives separately from the SvelteKit app
app.get('/healthcheck', (req, res) => {
	res.end('ok');
});

// let Brisa handle everything else, including serving prerendered pages and static assets
app.use(handler);

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

Types

export function handler(
  req: http.IncomingMessage,
  res: http.ServerResponse,
): Promise<void>;
