## Abstract

A device receives a configuration file that includes an object concerning a Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) route. The object includes a parameter, related to the HTTP route, that includes one or more elements related to the HTTP route, and includes an attribute related to an HTTP action. The device parses the configuration file to recognize the object, and parses the object to recognize the parameter. The device creates the HTTP route based on the parameter. The HTTP route includes information concerning the one or more elements related to the HTTP route and the attribute related to the HTTP action, and sends the HTTP route to a server, causing the server to perform an operation based on the HTTP route.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A method, comprising:
receiving, by a device, a configuration file,
wherein the configuration file includes data concerning a Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) route;
parsing, by the device, the data concerning the HTTP route to determine:
a parameter related to the HTTP route, and
an attribute related to an HTTP action; and
creating, by the device, the HTTP route and an HTTP verb declaration based on the parsing of the data concerning the HTTP route.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the HTTP route includes computer code, conforming to a domain specific language, that causes creation of an endpoint by a server device.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the configuration file further includes data concerning at least one other HTTP route; and
wherein the method further comprises:
creating the at least one other HTTP route based on the data concerning the at least one other HTTP route.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, further comprising:
determining that the configuration file uses a particular format; and
wherein parsing the data concerning the HTTP route comprises:
parsing the data concerning the HTTP route based on the particular format.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein creating the HTTP route comprises:
including, in the HTTP route, information concerning the parameter and the attribute.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, further comprising:
adding, to the HTTP route, computer code that defines an exception handler or exception handling routine.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the parameter includes one or more elements of an HTTP path associated with an application programming interface resource associated with the HTTP route.

### Claim 8

A device, comprising:
one or more memories; and
one or more processors coupled to the one or more memories, configured to:
receive a configuration file,
wherein the configuration file includes data concerning a Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) route;
parse the data concerning the HTTP route to determine:
a parameter related to the HTTP route, and
an attribute related to an HTTP action; and
create the HTTP route and an HTTP verb declaration based on the parsing of the data concerning the HTTP route.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The device of claim 8, wherein the HTTP route includes computer code, conforming to a domain specific language, that causes creation of an endpoint by a server device.

### Claim 10 (depends on 8)

The device of claim 8, wherein the configuration file further includes data concerning at least one other HTTP route; and
wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:
create the at least one other HTTP route based on the data concerning the at least one other HTTP route.

### Claim 11 (depends on 8)

The device of claim 8, wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:
determine that the configuration file uses a particular format; and
wherein the one or more processors, when parsing the data concerning the HTTP route, are further configured to:
parse the data concerning the HTTP route based on the particular format.

### Claim 12 (depends on 8)

The device of claim 8, wherein the one or more processors, when creating the HTTP route, are further configured to:
include, in the HTTP route, information concerning the parameter and the attribute.

### Claim 13 (depends on 8)

The device of claim 8, wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:
add, to the HTTP route, computer code that defines an exception handler or exception handling routine.

### Claim 14 (depends on 8)

The device of claim 8, wherein the parameter includes one or more elements of an HTTP path associated with an application programming interface resource associated with the HTTP route.

### Claim 15

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, the instructions comprising:
one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
receive a configuration file,
wherein the configuration file includes data concerning a Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) route;
parse the data concerning the HTTP route to determine:
a parameter related to the HTTP route, and
an attribute related to an HTTP action; and
create the HTTP route and an HTTP verb declaration based on the parsing of the data concerning the HTTP route.

### Claim 16 (depends on 15)

The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15, wherein the HTTP route includes computer code, conforming to a domain specific language, that causes creation of an endpoint by a server device.

### Claim 17 (depends on 15)

The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15, wherein the configuration file further includes data concerning at least one other HTTP route; and
wherein the one or more instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the one or more processors to:
create the at least one other HTTP route based on the data concerning the at least one other HTTP route.

### Claim 18 (depends on 15)

The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15, wherein the one or more instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the one or more processors to:
determine that the configuration file uses a particular format; and
wherein the one or more instructions, that cause the one or more processors to parse the data concerning the HTTP route, cause the one or more processors to:
parse the data concerning the HTTP route based on the particular format.

### Claim 19 (depends on 15)

The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15, wherein the one or more instructions, that cause the one or more processors to create the HTTP route, cause the one or more processors to:
include, in the HTTP route, information concerning the parameter and the attribute.

### Claim 20 (depends on 15)

The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15, wherein the one or more instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the one or more processors to:
add, to the HTTP route, computer code that defines an exception handler or exception handling routine.
