hono 4.2.0

v4.2.0

on Node.js NPM

Hono v4.2.0 is now available! Let's take a look at the new features.

Added more algorithms for JWT

The number of algorithms that JWT util can handle has increased from only 3 to 13! This means that JWT util now implements many of the algorithms supported by JWT.

• HS256
• HS384
• HS512
• RS256
• RS384
• RS512
• PS256
• PS384
• PS512
• ES256
• ES384
• ES512
• EdDSA

You can use these algorithms from the JWT middleware or JWT helpers. Thanks @Code-Hex!

Method Override Middleware

Method Override Middleware has been added. This middleware override the method of the real request with the specified method.

HTML form does not allow you to send a DELETE method request. Instead, by sending an input with name as _method and a value of DELETE, you can call the handler registered in app.delete().

const app = new Hono()

// If no options are specified, the value of `_method` in the form,
// e.g. DELETE, is used as the method.
app.use('/posts', methodOverride({ app }))

app.delete('/posts', (c) => {
  // ....
})

Trailing Slash Middleware

Trailing Slash Middleware resolves the handling of Trailing Slashes in GET requests. You can use appendTrailingSlash and trimTrailingSlash functions.

For example, it redirects a GET request to /about/me to /about/me/.

import { Hono } from 'hono'
import { appendTrailingSlash } from 'hono/trailing-slash'

const app = new Hono({ strict: true })

app.use(appendTrailingSlash())
app.get('/about/me/', (c) => c.text('With Trailing Slash'))

Thanks @rnmeow!
