Add an controller initializer

[stefanovualto]

Create a convention about the controller declaration and initialization, to avoid initialization of the controller by hand.

example of file structure:

• src
  • controllers
    • controller-initializer.ts
      • [controllerName]
        • [controllerName]-routes.ts
        • [controllerName]-controller.ts
        • [controllerName]-[controllerSpecificRessource].ts

Not sure I follow you? There is a convention already but are you talking about simply creating the controller then have the routes and the initialisation done automagically? Rather than having to manually add the code?

[stefanovualto]

My first idea was to initialize the controllers automagically (updated comment above for the structure), but we will lose the ability to map short named controllers with a longer route names. And it also is a pain to do it in TS due to the transpilation and the path management 😄 ...

In the vuplay-api actually we set manually the routes in the controller-initializer (or routes.ts). That helps to reduce the complexity of the App file, and add a structured separation of conecerns.
