bknd-custom-endpoint

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps developers implement custom API endpoints in BKND beyond the built-in CRUD routes, enabling tailored HTTP interfaces and integration points.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Flows + HTTP Triggers: Build multi-step endpoints that process requests and respond with computed results.
• Plugin Routes (onServerInit): Expose lightweight routes via plugin architecture for direct API access.
• Request/Response Handling: Access headers, bodies, query parameters, and path segments; respond with JSON, text, or custom responses.
• Sync vs Async: Support for both immediate responses and background processing for long-running tasks.
• Use Case: Create a webhook receiver or a custom internal API endpoint to orchestrate business logic.

Quick Start

Install BKND, then choose between flows or plugin routes to implement your endpoints. For flows, define a Flow with an HttpTrigger and optionally set a responding task. For plugins, create a plugin with onServerInit to register Hono routes. Example steps: 1) Create a Flow or plugin, 2) Attach HTTP trigger or routes, 3) Run BKND and send requests to verify responses.
