Description

  • Preserves matching router.use() middleware and registration order in both exclusive modes.
  • Adds coverage for global and path-scoped middleware.

Checklist

  • I have described my pull request and the reasons for code changes along with context if necessary.

Summary by Sourcery

Preserve matching middleware and route context while selecting exclusive routes.

Bug Fixes:

  • Preserve matching global and path-scoped middleware, in registration order, when exclusive routing selects a single route.
  • Ensure parameter middleware runs once per parameter value while still handling distinct parameters correctly.

Enhancements:

  • Keep selected-route metadata available to middleware executed alongside the exclusive route.

Tests:

  • Add coverage for middleware behavior in standard and specificity-based exclusive modes, including parameter middleware execution.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Exclusive routing now selects from method-matching routes and continues to run applicable middleware.
    • Middleware can access metadata for the selected route, including its path and name, while authorization checks remain effective in exclusive modes.
    • Parameter middleware runs for each distinct parameter name and value, avoiding repeated calls for the same handler, parameter, and value.
    • Unnamed selected routes clear stale route-name metadata, and named-route metadata remains available to downstream middleware after a route handler calls next().

Walkthrough

Exclusive routing now selects from method-matching route layers. Specificity mode chooses the route with the fewest parameter names, while default mode chooses the last route. The execution list retains all matching middleware and the selected route. Tests add authorization checks for both exclusive modes.

Explanation

The title "fix: preserve matching middleware in exclusive mode" matches the main change. The raw summary shows exclusive mode in src/router.ts now keeps matching middleware layers alongside the chosen route, where it previously ran only the chosen layer or none. The objectives say the PR aims to preserve matching router.use() middleware in both exclusive modes. The layer.ts and types.ts changes for per-handler parameter tracking are secondary, so the title does not cover them, but it still names the primary change.

Reviewer's Guide

Exclusive routing now chooses among matching routes without dropping applicable global or path-scoped middleware, preserves middleware order and selected-route metadata, and makes parameter middleware deduplication precise to each handler, parameter name, and value; tests cover authorization, metadata, specificity, and parameter behavior.

**Route parameter callback uses wrong capture**

When a matching path-scoped middleware and the selected route use the same parameter name for different captures, and a `router.param` handler is registered for that name, the middleware layer runs the `router.param` callback first with its capture; the context’s `_matchedParams` then causes the selected route’s callback to be skipped, so route logic uses the middleware’s value instead of the route’s capture.

Ensure a methodless layer’s parameter callback cannot suppress the selected route’s callback when their captures differ.

279-357: Trivial · Maintainability & Code Quality · Quick win

Add order and trailing-middleware assertions to the exclusive test.

The new exclusive: true test checks only status codes and response body keys. Both router.use() guards either pass or throw 401, and neither records state. Swapping their registration order produces the same status for none, allowed, and scoped. Removing a middleware registered after users_all also leaves every assertion unchanged. A regression in the registration-order contract would therefore pass this test. The same gap applies to the exclusive: 'specificity' tests, which use the same guard pattern.

Record the execution order in the exclusive test, then assert it after the first successful request. Add a middleware after the selected route so trailing-middleware omission is also detected:

Suggested fix
   it("runs only the last match when the 'exclusive' option is enabled", async () => {
     const app = new Koa();
     const router = new Router({ exclusive: true });
+    const order: string[] = [];

     router.use('/users', (ctx, next) => {
+      order.push('scoped');
       if (ctx.get('authorization') === 'scoped') ctx.throw(401);
       return next();
     });
     router
       .use((ctx, next) => {
+        order.push('global');
         const isAuthorized = Boolean(ctx.get('authorization'));
         if (!isAuthorized) ctx.throw(401);
         return next();
       })
       .get('users_single', new RegExp('/users/:id(.*)'), (ctx, next) => {
         ctx.body = { single: true };
         next();
       })
       .get('users_all', '/users/all', (ctx, next) => {
+        order.push('users_all');
         ctx.body = { ...(ctx.body as object), all: true };
         next();
       })
+      .use((ctx, next) => {
+        order.push('trailing');
         return next();
+      });

     const res = await request(
       http.createServer(app.use(router.routes()).callback())
     )
       .get('/users/all')
       .set('authorization', 'allowed')
       .expect(200);

     assert.strictEqual('single' in res.body, false);
     assert.strictEqual('all' in res.body, true);
+    assert.deepStrictEqual(order, ['scoped', 'global', 'users_all', 'trailing']);
     await request(app.callback()).get('/users/all').expect(401);

Minor · Preserve selected-route metadata in exclusive middleware. · router.ts:671-679

src/router.ts:671-679
🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Preserve selected-route metadata in exclusive middleware.

In exclusive mode, a matching /pet router.use() layer runs before the selected /pet/findByStatus route. Its wrapper sets ctx.routerPath and ctx._matchedRoute to /pet and sets ctx.routerName to undefined before the middleware runs. These fields are documented as the matched route path and name. Middleware that reads them before next() therefore receives the middleware layer, not the selected route. In specificity mode, _setMatchedRouteInfo() also initially chooses the last matching route, which can differ from the selected route.

Initialize the metadata from the selected route and do not overwrite it for methodless layers in exclusive mode.

Assert middleware registration order in both exclusive modes.

The exclusive: true and exclusive: 'specificity' fixtures exercise scoped and global middleware, but their assertions only check route selection and authorization results. Reversing the two middleware registrations while still executing both would produce the same results and pass.

Record the callbacks and assert ['scoped', 'global'] for the authorized request in both fixtures.

Suggested fix
     const app = new Koa();
     const router = new Router({ exclusive: true });
+    const middlewareOrder: string[] = [];

     router.use('/users', (ctx, next) => {
+      middlewareOrder.push('scoped');
       assert.deepStrictEqual(
...
       .use((ctx, next) => {
+        middlewareOrder.push('global');
         const isAuthorized = Boolean(ctx.get('authorization'));
...
     assert.strictEqual('single' in res.body, false);
     assert.strictEqual('all' in res.body, true);
+    assert.deepStrictEqual(middlewareOrder, ['scoped', 'global']);

Apply the same order recording and assertion to the exclusive: 'specificity' fixture at test/router.test.ts:327-367.

**Named route metadata gets cleared**

When a named route is followed in registration order by matching unnamed middleware in non-exclusive mode, `_buildMiddlewareChain` uses the current layer as `metadataLayer` when exclusive routing is off, so a later matching unnamed middleware sets `_matchedRouteName` to `undefined` and downstream code sees no name for the named route that matched.

Set `_matchedRouteName` from the selected route once, or only overwrite it when the current layer represents a route whose name should replace it.

<issue_to_address>
**Equal values skip another parameter**

When the same callback is registered for two different parameter names that capture the same string, `hasMatchedValue` treats the shared handler and equal captured strings as the same match, so the handler for the second parameter name is skipped and its parameter-specific work does not run.

Include the parameter name in the deduplication key so a handler is deduplicated only for the same parameter and value.
</issue_to_address>

Sourcery assessment

Needs a human reviewer. 2 findings to address first, and if exclusive matching selects the wrong layers, a request could reach a route without a matching middleware that enforces an access check, exposing data before the bug is fixed. Reverting restores the old routing behavior but cannot undo data already exposed.

Blocking findings: src/router.ts:703, src/layer.ts:468

**Unauthorized route execution goes unnoticed**

When exclusive dispatch runs a selected route before its registered authorization middleware, the selected route handler can run first, set its response body, and call `next()` before the authorization middleware throws 401; the `expect(401)` assertions still pass because neither test checks that the handler was not invoked.

Assert that the selected route handler was not invoked for unauthorized requests, or explicitly verify middleware-before-route execution order.

Also at `test/router.test.ts:362`.
</issue_to_address>

Sourcery assessment

Needs a human reviewer. 1 finding to address first, and exclusive routing now executes matching .use() middleware alongside the selected route, so middleware that enforces access checks may run where it previously did not; a selection bug could therefore allow requests past those checks. Reverting restores the old routing behavior, but any access or data exposure before the revert cannot be undone.

**Middleware overwrites selected route parameters**

When a path-scoped middleware layer registered after the selected route matches the request and captures a same-named parameter with a different value, the later middleware layer’s `params()` merges its captures into `routerContext.params`, replacing same-named values from the selected route; downstream handlers then see middleware captures instead of the route’s parameters.

Preserve the selected route’s parameter values for downstream route handling, or isolate middleware-layer captures from the selected route’s params.
</issue_to_address>

Sourcery assessment

Needs a human reviewer. 1 finding to address first, and exclusive routing now runs matching middleware alongside the chosen route, so a selection or ordering defect could skip an authorization check or run the wrong one. Reverting restores the old routing behavior, but requests that were served without the intended check cannot be undone.

**Later middleware overwrites route parameters**

When a path-scoped `router.use()` registered after a selected route captures a same-named parameter with a different value, and the route calls `next()`, a matching path-scoped middleware after the selected route is added to `layersToExecute`; its layer then merges its captures over `ctx.params`. When the route handler calls `next()`, downstream middleware sees the path middleware’s value instead of the selected route’s parameter value.

Keep middleware-layer captures from overwriting the selected route’s parameters for downstream route processing.

-      context._matchedParams.set(parameterHandler, true);
+      matchedParameters.set(parameterName, parameterValue);
+      context._matchedParams.set(parameterHandler, matchedParameters);

</code_context>
<issue_to_address>
**Parameter handlers repeat earlier values**

When matching layers apply the same handler and parameter name to values A, B, then A during one request, `matchedParameters` retains only the latest value, so `_createParamMiddleware` invokes the handler again for A, and callers see duplicate parameter-handler side effects.

Track all values already handled for each parameter name instead of retaining only the latest value.

Also at `src/layer.ts:476`.

<issue_to_address>
**Use-layer parameter middleware can be skipped**

When parameter middleware is skipped for matching `use()` layers but still runs for route layers, in `does not call param handler multiple times with use middleware`, the no-op `.use('/:id', ...)` at line 2618 is never observed, while the route’s own parameter handler can still set `ctx.state.id` to `'42'`; the expectation at line 2623 passes even if parameter middleware is skipped for matching `use()` layers.

Record parameter-handler calls for the use and route layers, then assert both expected parameter values were handled.
</issue_to_address>

Sourcery assessment

Needs a human reviewer. 3 findings to address first, and exclusive routing now selects which matching middleware runs alongside the chosen route, so a selection bug could skip an authorization check and expose protected responses or data. Reverting restores the old routing behavior, but it cannot undo access or exposure that already occurred.

Hey - I've reviewed your changes and they look great!

Sourcery assessment

Needs a human reviewer. Exclusive routing now decides which matching middleware and parameter handlers run; if that selection skips an authorization check or runs the wrong route, a request could reach a protected handler. Reverting restores the old dispatch behavior, but any access granted while the change was live cannot be undone.
