x.web How to write api methods in different v files

[Avey777]

module main

import x.vweb
import mall


const (
	port = 8082
)

pub struct Context {
	vweb.Context
}

pub struct App {
	vweb.Middleware[Context]
}

@["/";get;post]
pub fn (app &App) api(mut ctx Context) vweb.Result {
	eprintln('------------ ${@METHOD} -----------------')

	return ctx.json([
        "code: 200,
        message: successapi"

    ])
}


// This method will only handle GET requests to the index page
@["/";get]
pub fn (app &App) index(mut ctx Context) vweb.Result {
	eprintln('------------ ${@METHOD} -----------------')

	return ctx.json([
        "code: 200,
        message: success"

    ])
}

fn new_app() {
	eprintln('------------ ${@METHOD} -----------------')

	mut app := &App{}

	// 使用cors进行跨域处理
	// use vweb's cors middleware to handle CORS requests
	app.use(vweb.cors[Context](vweb.CorsOptions{
		// allow CORS requests from every domain
		origins: ['*']
		// allow CORS requests with the following request methods:
		allowed_methods: [.get, .head, .patch, .put, .post, .delete]
	}))

	// start our app at port 8080
	vweb.run[App, Context](mut app, port)
}


fn main(){
	new_app()
}

How to put api methods in another v file instead of main.v file

[Avey777]

import vweb
import api {App,Context}

@["/ttt";get]
pub fn (app &App) ttt(mut ctx Context) vweb.Result {
	eprintln('------------ ${@METHOD} -----------------')

	return ctx.json([
        "code: 200,
        message: success"

    ])

}

 error: cannot define new methods on non-local type src.api.App

 @["/123";get]
 pub fn (app &App) ttt(mut ctx Context) vweb.Result {

Does this mean that I am unable to write APIs in the files of folders outside the declared App and Context structures

That is correct. All your route methods must be in the same file.

That is correct. All your route methods must be in the same file.

why ？

[JalonSolov]

Because that's the way it's implemented? It's the way vweb works. If you want it to work differently, enter a feature request, or create a PR... however, I don't know that this has much hope of being changed, since it is similar idea to not allowing adding methods to a struct in a different module, which V will not change.

If I want to write api methods in different folders, is there any other way to implement it?
