A minimalist web framework for Deno ported from ExpressJS.
Now in maintenance mode: Deno has introduced Node and NPM compat, considering using Express itself in Deno!
import express from "npm:express";Express not working for you? Raise an issue on Deno and keep reading for Opine usage π

import { opine } from "https://deno.land/x/[email protected]/mod.ts";
const app = opine();
app.get("/", function (req, res) {
res.send("Hello World");
});
app.listen(3000, () =>
console.log("server has started on http://localhost:3000 π")
);This is a Deno module available to import direct from this repo and via the Deno Registry.
Before importing, download and install Deno.
You can then import Opine straight into your project:
import { opine } from "https://deno.land/x/[email protected]/mod.ts";Opine is also available on nest.land, a package registry for Deno on the Blockchain.
import { opine } from "https://x.nest.land/[email protected]/mod.ts";- Robust routing
- Large selection of HTTP helpers including support for downloading / sending files, etags, Content-Disposition, cookies, JSONP etc.
- Support for static serving of assets
- View system supporting template engines
- Content negotiation

The quickest way to get started with Opine is to utilize the Opine CLI to generate an application as shown below:
Install the executable. The executable's major version will match Opine's:
deno install -f -q --allow-read --allow-write --allow-net --unstable https://deno.land/x/[email protected]/opine-cli.tsAnd follow any suggestions to update your PATH environment variable.
Create the app:
opine-cli --view=ejs hello-deno && cd hello-denoStart your Opine app at http://localhost:3000/:
deno run --allow-net --allow-read --allow-env mod.tsThe Express philosophy is to provide small, robust tooling for HTTP servers, making it a great solution for single page applications, web sites, hybrids, or public HTTP APIs.
Opine aimed to achieve these same great goals, focussing on providing equivalent robust tooling and features for Deno uses.
Now Deno's Node compatibility layer is maturing sufficiently to support Express out of the box, Opine is operating maintenance mode.
To run the examples, you have two choices:
-
Run the example using Deno directly from GitHub, for example:
deno run --allow-net --allow-read https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cmorten/opine/main/examples/hello-world/index.ts
-
Clone the Opine repo locally:
git clone git://github.com/cmorten/opine.git --depth 1 cd opineThen run the example you want:
deno run --allow-net --allow-read ./examples/hello-world/index.ts
All the examples contain example commands in their READMEs to help get you started for either of the above methods.
