feat(handler): new defineJsonRpcHandler

[sandros94]

An experimental handler to support the JSON RPC spec.

Usage

you define it like a normal handler, but with the added params as its first callback argument:

const eventHandler = defineJsonRpcHandler({
  echo: (params, event) => {
    return `Recieved \`${params}\` on path \`${event.url.pathname}\``;
  },
});
app.post("/rpc"; eventHandler); // Must be a POST method

then you call it with a valid body, for example:

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "echo",
  "params": "Hello World",
}

and you'll receive a json-rpc compatible response:

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1, // Same id from the request
  "result": "Recieved `Hello World` on path `/rpc`",
}

it also support client-to-server notifications by simply omitting the id key, this will result in the server responding a 202

Personal considerations and future expansion

• Support built-in schema validation (probably allowing for an object instead of directly the event callback)

It seems we might need some builtin protection against proto access

[sandros94]

with b25d034 I've implemented a simple safeguard for it.

Let me know if I'm on the right track, as I do realize this is a topic which I'm weak in knowledge :/

Hi dear @sandros94 This PR is under my radar (and important!) but have to delay for more testing. In meantime you don't need to keep it updated ❤️

Absolutely no problem, I also imagine that we all took some time off for the summer and should focus on more important things first, this is a long term one. This feature is also easy to implement in downstream projects, so no rush.

The reason why I kept updating it for a bit was because while testing it with some Json RPC clients (mainly MCP-related ones) I've found a couple of issues and DX improvements, but now it is complete for what I know atm
