Fastify Plugin

[ethndotsh]

I will be using Fastify for my internal and external API, so a native Fastify plugin would be great.

I know that Quirrel is no longer being worked on, but was just hoping this simple little thing could be implemented.

Quirrel is being worked on - we're shutting down the hosted version, but you can continue to self-host and use it :D

A Fastify plugin sounds like a great idea. I haven't worked a lot with Fastify, so I don't really know how a idiomatic plugin would look. It should be pretty easy to write an adapter using QuirrelClient, though. Here's a snippet on how QuirrelClient is used:

import { QuirrelClient } from "quirrel"

const fastify = ...

const FooQueue = new QuirrelClient({
  route: "/queues/foo",
  async handler(job: { message: string }) {
    console.log("Here's a message from the foo queue:", job.message);
  },
});

fastify.post("/queues/foo", async (request, reply) => {
  const { body, headers, status } = await FooQueue.respondTo(
    request.body,
    request.headers
  );
  reply.status(status).headers(headers).send(body);
});

// ...

FooQueue.enqueue(...)

The important bit really is that route is the same between the QuirrelClient and the fastify route, and that you implement .respondTo.

What do you think about adapting this snippet into a Fastify Plugin that makes sense for your project, and commenting it back here? If you have more experience with Fastify than me, I'd love to take your intuition here as a basis for the "official" Quirrel/Fastify plugin :)
