route-handler-exports-uppercase - ESLint plugin rules

This rule requires API route handler exports to use uppercase HTTP method names, such as GET or POST.

Severity#

error. This rule is enabled in the recommended preset.

What it Targets#

This rule targets route.ts and route.js files in your project's src/api directory. It reports handler exports that use a lowercase HTTP method name, which Medusa ignores.

The following code is reported by the rule:

src/api/store/products/route.ts
1export const get = async (req, res) => {2  res.json({})3}

Instead, use the uppercase method name:

src/api/store/products/route.ts
1export const GET = async (req, res) => {2  res.json({})3}

Why it's Important#

Medusa only registers handlers exported with uppercase HTTP method names. A lowercase export is ignored, so the route's handler is never reached.

Learn more in the HTTP Methods documentation.

Fixable#

This rule is auto-fixable. Run the linter with the --fix option to apply the fix automatically.
