0/ 9

Question 1
1
What is Nitro?
AA bundler for Nuxt client codeBNuxt's universal server engine for SSR and API routesCA test runnerDA CDN provider
Nitro is the server engine — it powers SSR, server/api/*, and compiles to multiple deploy targets (Node, edge, serverless).
Question 2
2
How do you declare an HTTP handler in server/api/?
Aexport default defineEventHandler((event) => { ... })Bexport const handler = (req, res) => { ... }Cmodule.exports = (req, res) => { ... }Dexport default async function GET(req) { ... }
defineEventHandler is the Nitro/H3 way to write handlers — it auto-serializes the return value and handles errors.
Question 3
3
getQuery(event) returns the parsed query-string object.
TTrueFFalse
getQuery, readBody, getCookie, setCookie, and friends are H3 helpers available globally inside event handlers.
Question 4
4
Which helper reads the request body as JSON?
Aevent.bodyBawait readBody(event)Cevent.json()Dreq.body
readBody consumes the request stream and parses based on the content type — JSON, form-data, or raw text.
Question 5
5
Where do server middleware files live?
Aserver/middleware/Bmiddleware/Cserver/api/_middleware/Dplugins/server/
server/middleware/ files run on every server request before route handlers — perfect for logging or attaching event.context.
Question 6
6
Helpers exported from server/utils/*.ts are ____-imported in any server file.
Like composables/ on the client, server/utils/ is auto-imported across server routes and middleware.
Question 7
7
Which approach gives a server route a typed URL with params?
AA filename like server/api/users/[id].ts and getRouterParam(event, "id")BSetting routerParams: { id: "string" }CAdding // @param id string at the top of the fileDTypeScript can't type Nitro routes
Square-bracket params work in server/api/ just like in pages/. Read with getRouterParam(event, 'id').
Question 8
8
Which databases work well from a Nuxt server route?
Select all that apply.
APostgres via pg (Node preset)BSQLite via better-sqlite3 (Node preset)CNeon Postgres via the HTTP driver (edge or Node)DCloudflare D1 (Cloudflare preset)
All four work — but TCP drivers (pg, better-sqlite3) only on Node presets. HTTP drivers (Neon, D1) also work at the edge.
