Community Spotlight - Submit your package or tool

[thetutlage]

I'm starting a Community Spotlight series where I pick packages and tools from the AdonisJS ecosystem, try them hands-on, and share an honest writeup with the broader community.

If you're building something and think it's ready, reply to this thread with:

1. What it does (one paragraph)
2. Who it's for
3. Current status, how long you've been building it, your maintenance plans
4. Link to the repo and docs

A few things worth knowing before you submit:

• I'll be installing and using everything I consider featuring. If the docs are incomplete or the install path is broken, it's not ready yet.
• Not everything submitted will get featured, and I can't always commit to a timeline.
• Actively maintained projects only. If you've moved on from the project, this isn't the right time to submit it.

Early-stage is fine. If you're building something serious and it works, put it here.

Hello, I'm the maintainer of the JWT package @maximemrf/adonisjs-jwt

What it does
@maximemrf/adonisjs-jwt is a simple, lightweight, and type-safe authentication guard for AdonisJS that implements JSON Web Tokens (JWT). It integrates seamlessly with the framework's native @adonisjs/auth package, allowing developers to authenticate users via Bearer tokens or cookies. It comes with built-in features for token expiration, refresh tokens (via the OAT tokens), and even JWKS (JSON Web Key Sets) support for verifying tokens signed by external providers.

Who it's for
AdonisJS developers building stateless REST APIs, microservices, or mobile app backends who need a robust JWT-based authentication system rather than relying on session auth or Opaque Access Tokens (OAT).

Current status, how long you've been building it, your maintenance plans
The package is stable, actively maintained, and used by the community. I started building it over two years ago for AdonisJS v6, and I recently shipped a update to fully support the newly released AdonisJS v7 (while keeping a v6 compatible version). My maintenance plan is to keep it strictly aligned with future AdonisJS releases, address community feedback/issues, and ensure the documentation remains comprehensive and easy to follow.

Roadmap & Future Plans

• Enhanced Documentation: Launching a dedicated documentation site to provide deep-dive guides and better API references.
• Code Modularization: Ongoing refactoring to decouple core logic, improving maintainability and making it easier for the community to contribute.
• Developer Experience (DX): Developing a "JWT Starter Kit" to help developers scaffold authenticated AdonisJS applications in seconds.
• Long-term Maintenance: Committed to providing day-one support for future AdonisJS versions and expanding the feature set based on community feedback.

Hey, I'm Rahul — I've been working on Adowire, a Livewire-inspired reactive component system for AdonisJS + Edge.js.

What it does

Adowire is a full-stack reactive component system for AdonisJS v7 + Edge.js v6, heavily inspired by Laravel Livewire. You write a TypeScript class with public properties and methods, pair it with an Edge template, and it handles all the plumbing — AJAX roundtrips, state serialization, DOM diffing via morphdom, two-way binding, VineJS validation, and SSE streaming. No REST endpoints, no fetch calls, no client-side state management. Also ships with an Alpine.js $wire bridge if you need lightweight frontend logic on top.

Who it's for

AdonisJS developers who want to build interactive UIs without reaching for React or Vue. If you're already happy with Edge templates and just want reactivity without context-switching to a frontend framework, this is for you.

Current status

Alpha, been at it for a few weeks. I use AdonisJS daily at my company and always wanted a Livewire equivalent for it — nothing existed so I just built it. The core works: reactive engine, lifecycle hooks, 11 directives, 5 decorators, SSE streaming, HTML-style component tags, page routing via router.adowire(), 7 Ace CLI commands. Single command install — node ace add adowire. Not battle-tested in production yet but the foundation is there. Nesting, file uploads, and SPA navigation are next. Feedback and early testers very welcome.

Hello, I'm Jeremy, maintainer of @jrmc/adonis-attachment.

What it does

@jrmc/adonis-attachmentis a full-featured file attachment package for AdonisJS 6/7 that goes well beyond simple uploads. It integrates directly with Lucid models via@attachment()and@attachments()decorators, handles the entire file lifecycle (create, persist, delete) through model hooks, and supports generating image variants using sharp. It can also produce thumbnails from videos (FFmpeg), PDFs (Poppler), and Office documents (LibreOffice). Input can come from multipart uploads, file paths, buffers, streams, URLs, or Base64 — all with optional EXIF/metadata extraction and blurhash placeholder generation. The converter system is fully extensible: you can create custom converters vianode ace make:converter` to handle any file processing logic your project requires.

Who it's for

AdonisJS 6/7 developers who need production-grade file attachment handling in their Lucid models — whether for user avatars, document uploads, media libraries, or anything requiring image variants and thumbnails — without wiring up the plumbing themselves.

Current status

I started building this in 2022 as @jrmc/attachment-advanced for AdonisJS 5, then did a full rewrite in 2024 for AdonisJS 6 — now published as @jrmc/adonis-attachment, currently at v5.0.2. Actively maintained. I'm responsive to bug reports and feature requests submitted via GitHub Issues or the AdonisJS Discord, and plan to keep evolving the package alongside the ecosystem.

Roadmap & Future Plans

I'm planning a refactor focused on two main areas: native integration with @adonisjs/queue for handling variant generation as proper background jobs, and decoupling the Attachment objects from Lucid so the package can be used with any ORM of your choice — not just Lucid.

Hello, I’m Jeremy, maintainer of @jrmc/adonis-mcp.

What it does

@jrmc/adonis-mcp is a server package for the Model Context Protocol, designed for AdonisJS 6/7. It allows your AdonisJS application to expose tools, resources, and prompts to any MCP-compatible AI client — in a way that feels native to the AdonisJS ecosystem.

Auto-discovery scans your app/mcp/ directory for files ending with _tool.ts, _resource.ts, or _prompt.ts, and registers them automatically.

Transport support includes HTTP (via router.mcp()), stdio for CLI-based integrations, and a fake transport for testing.

Includes integration with VineJS and Bouncer.

Who it’s for

AdonisJS 6/7 developers who want to expose their application’s capabilities to AI assistants — whether for internal tooling, agentic workflows, or AI-powered features — without having to implement the MCP plumbing themselves.

Current status

Version v1.0.0 has just been released. Inspired by Laravel MCP and adapted for the AdonisJS ecosystem. Actively maintained, and open to discussions via GitHub Issues or the AdonisJS Discord.

Roadmap & Future Plans

Next priorities include compatibility with Transmit for SSE transport as an alternative to HTTP streaming.
