Is it possible to define iron-router server side routes that respond to certain HTTP actions?

Question

I have a basic server side route defined in iron-router like:

this.route(\'foo\', {
  where: \'server\',
  path: \'/foo\',
  action: function() {
    // handle r         


        

Answer 1

You can definitely check the method and only respond if it's the one you want, e.g., like this:

Router.map(function () {
    this.route('route', {
        path: '/mypath',
        where: 'server',
        action: function() {
            if (this.request.method != 'GET') {
                // do whatever
            } else {
                this.response.writeHead(404);
            }
        }
    })
});

The second question beats me. It might be possible to use this.next() somehow, but I'm not sure.
