Public API

buildContainer

import { buildContainer, type AppEnv } from "@/container";

const container: ReturnType<typeof buildContainer> = buildContainer();

Constructs and returns the dependency injection container holding all service singletons (repositories, use-cases, cache, event bus). Call once at startup and inject results into request context via c.set().

requireAuth

import { requireAuth } from "@/common/middlewares/require-auth";

app.use("/v1/*", requireAuth);

Hono middleware that validates the incoming JWT on every request under /v1/*. Attach it before mounting any route that should be protected. Authentication failure results in a structured error response before the handler executes.

globalErrorHandler

import { globalErrorHandler } from "@/common/middlewares/error-handler";

app.onError(globalErrorHandler);

Registered as Hono's onError hook. Catches unhandled errors from any route or middleware and serializes them into a consistent JSON error envelope. Register this before any routes to ensure all errors are normalized.

addonsRoutes

import { addonsRoutes } from "@/modules/addons/infrastructure/http";

app.route("/v1/addons", addonsRoutes);

Pre-built OpenAPI-annotated Hono router for the addons module. Each module (couponsRoutes, subscriptionsRoutes, invoicesRoutes, etc.) follows the same pattern and is mounted the same way.

Working examples

Scenario - Start the API server in isolation

Drop the API into a Node.js process and serve it on a custom port. This is the standard self-hosted path.

// server.ts  (at apps/api/src/index.ts level)
import { OpenAPIHono } from "@hono/zod-openapi";
import { serve } from "@hono/node-server";
import { buildContainer, type AppEnv } from "@/container";
import { globalErrorHandler } from "@/common/middlewares/error-handler";
import { requireAuth } from "@/common/middlewares/require-auth";
import { addonsRoutes } from "@/modules/addons/infrastructure/http";
import { subscriptionsRoutes } from "@/modules/subscriptions/infrastructure/http";
import { customersRoutes } from "@/modules/customers/infrastructure/http";

const app = new OpenAPIHono<AppEnv>();

app.onError(globalErrorHandler);

const container = buildContainer();

app.use("*", async (c, next) => {
  for (const [key, value] of Object.entries(container)) {
    c.set(key as keyof typeof container, value);
  }
  await next();
});

app.use("/v1/*", requireAuth);

app
  .route("/v1/addons", addonsRoutes)
  .route("/v1/subscriptions", subscriptionsRoutes)
  .route("/v1/customers", customersRoutes);

serve({ fetch: app.fetch, port: Number(process.env.PORT ?? 3000) }, (info) => {
  console.log(`Revstack API listening on http://localhost:${info.port}`);
});

Scenario - Mount Revstack API inside an existing Hono application

If you already have a Hono application, embed the billing engine as a sub-router without running a separate process.

// existing-app.ts
import { OpenAPIHono } from "@hono/zod-openapi";
import { serve } from "@hono/node-server";
import { buildContainer, type AppEnv } from "./billing/apps/api/src/container";
import { globalErrorHandler } from "./billing/apps/api/src/common/middlewares/error-handler";
import { requireAuth } from "./billing/apps/api/src/common/middlewares/require-auth";
import { invoicesRoutes } from "./billing/apps/api/src/modules/invoices/infrastructure/http";
import { paymentsRoutes } from "./billing/apps/api/src/modules/payments/infrastructure/http";

const app = new OpenAPIHono<AppEnv>();

app.onError(globalErrorHandler);

// Your existing routes
app.get("/health", (c) => c.json({ status: "ok" }));

// Billing sub-tree
const container = buildContainer();
app.use("/billing/*", async (c, next) => {
  for (const [key, value] of Object.entries(container)) {
    c.set(key as keyof typeof container, value);
  }
  await next();
});
app.use("/billing/v1/*", requireAuth);
app
  .route("/billing/v1/invoices", invoicesRoutes)
  .route("/billing/v1/payments", paymentsRoutes);

serve({ fetch: app.fetch, port: 4000 });

Scenario - Selectively mount only entitlement and coupon modules

When you only need a subset of the billing surface (e.g., entitlements + coupons for a freemium gate), import just those route modules.

// minimal-billing.ts
import { OpenAPIHono } from "@hono/zod-openapi";
import { serve } from "@hono/node-server";
import { buildContainer, type AppEnv } from "@/container";
import { globalErrorHandler } from "@/common/middlewares/error-handler";
import { requireAuth } from "@/common/middlewares/require-auth";
import { entitlementsRoutes } from "@/modules/entitlements/infrastructure/http";
import { couponsRoutes } from "@/modules/coupons/infrastructure/http";

const app = new OpenAPIHono<AppEnv>();
app.onError(globalErrorHandler);

const container = buildContainer();
app.use("*", async (c, next) => {
  for (const [key, value] of Object.entries(container)) {
    c.set(key as keyof typeof container, value);
  }
  await next();
});

app.use("/v1/*", requireAuth);
app
  .route("/v1/entitlements", entitlementsRoutes)
  .route("/v1/coupons", couponsRoutes);

serve({ fetch: app.fetch, port: 3001 });

File walkthrough

• apps/api/src/index.ts - Application entry point: creates the Hono app, registers middleware, mounts all route modules, and starts the server.
• apps/api/src/container.ts - Dependency injection factory; instantiates all repositories, services, and use-cases and returns them as a typed container object.
• apps/api/src/common/middlewares/error-handler.ts - Global Hono onError handler; converts all thrown errors to a uniform JSON response.
• apps/api/src/common/middlewares/require-auth.ts - JWT validation middleware applied to all /v1/* routes.
• apps/api/src/common/middlewares/guards.ts - Route-level authorization guards (role/permission checks).
• apps/api/src/common/application/ports/CacheService.ts - Port interface for cache operations consumed by use-cases.
• apps/api/src/common/application/ports/EventBus.ts - Port interface for publishing domain events.
• apps/api/src/common/infrastructure/adapters/BasePostgresRepository.ts - Abstract Postgres repository with shared query helpers.
• apps/api/src/common/infrastructure/security/JwtService.ts - JWT signing and verification wrapper around jose.
• apps/api/src/common/infrastructure/security/application/AccessService.ts - Service that evaluates access control policies.
• apps/api/src/common/errors/DomainError.ts - Base class for all typed domain errors.
• apps/api/src/modules/ - One directory per domain module; each follows the same layered structure (domain, application, infrastructure/http).
• apps/checkout/ - Standalone checkout UI application.
• packages/ - Publishable client SDKs (node, next, react, browser, auth, ai, cli).
• scripts/ - Build and maintenance scripts shared across the workspace.
• turbo.json - Defines the Turborepo task graph (build, test, lint).
• pnpm-workspace.yaml - Declares apps/* and packages/* as workspace members.

Common pitfalls and fixes

• Missing DATABASE_URL: The container will throw at startup if DATABASE_URL is not set. Always provide it in .env before running.
• @/ path alias not resolved: Ensure tsconfig.json has baseUrl: "./src" and paths: { "@/*": ["./*"] }. When running with tsx directly, add --tsconfig apps/api/tsconfig.json.
• pnpm vs npm/yarn lockfile conflicts: The workspace uses pnpm-workspace.yaml. Running npm install at the root will break hoisting. Use pnpm install exclusively.
• JWT secret length: jose requires a minimum 256-bit (32-byte) secret for HS256. A short JWT_SECRET causes silent token rejection. Use openssl rand -hex 32.
• Hono AppEnv type mismatch: If you extend the container and add keys, update the AppEnv type in container.ts to include them or TypeScript will reject c.set() calls.
• Turborepo cache stale builds: After changing environment variables or Docker base images, run pnpm turbo build --force to bypass the cache.

Vibe-coding prompt template

I have the Revstack billing engine source code in the `source/` directory of this project.
Read `source/USAGE.md` carefully before writing any code.

The upstream package is `revstack-os`. The API is built with Hono + @hono/zod-openapi.
Key entry points:
  - source/apps/api/src/index.ts  (application bootstrap)
  - source/apps/api/src/container.ts  (dependency injection)
  - source/apps/api/src/common/middlewares/  (auth, error handling)
  - source/apps/api/src/modules/<module>/infrastructure/http/  (route modules)

My project is a Node.js TypeScript service using [describe your stack].
Please do the following step-by-step:
1. Add the required npm dependencies listed in USAGE.md to my package.json.
2. Copy or reference the Revstack source so it resolves the `@/` path alias correctly.
3. Create a `billing.ts` file in my project that initializes `buildContainer()`, registers
   `globalErrorHandler` and `requireAuth`, and mounts these specific modules:
   [list the modules you need, e.g. entitlementsRoutes, subscriptionsRoutes, customersRoutes].
4. Wire the Hono app's `fetch` handler into my existing server.
5. Add the required environment variables to my `.env.example`.
6. Show me how to test the `/v1/entitlements` route with curl once the server is running.
Do not invent any exports that are not documented in USAGE.md or visible in the source files.
