bootstrapControllers(options)
Call this in your main file to initialize your controllers.
Returns
Promise<{ app: Application; router: Router }>
Returns a promise of the koa app, and the router used in the bootstrap function.

// For If you want to supply your own koa application instance.
// If this is not provided, amala will create a koa application for you.
// Either way, an app is returned from the bootstrap function.

// If this is not provided, amala will create a koa-router for you and load it up with endpoints

Amala simplifies error handling for you using Boom errors.
You can throw boom errors from within your endpoints and middleware and the will be nicely handled and
sent back to the requester based on status code.
If you must change this, be sure to reference the default implementation for context. See below:
const defaultErrorHandler = async (err: any, ctx: any) => {
if (err.isBoom) {
const error = err.output.payload;
error.errorDetails = error.statusCode >= 500 ? undefined : err.data;
ctx.body = error;
ctx.status = error.statusCode;
if (error.statusCode >= 500) console.error(err);
} else {
ctx.body = {error: 'Internal Server Error'};
ctx.status = 500;
console.error(err);
}
};

errorHandler?: (err, ctx) => Promise<void>;
// if true, will attach generated routes to the koa app. Don't set to true if you need to use app.use(...)

// Options for class-validator. Used to validate endpoint injectables. See docs.
