Making a (for now) simple REST framework that I can use in my cloud computing class.
- Simple regex based URL matching
- Easy seperation of functionality for HTTP methods
- Easier JSON response integration
- Built-in JSON errors (with correct status codes)
package main
import (
"net/http"
"github.com/Syntox32/Milkyway"
)
type Person struct {
Name string `json:"name"`
}
func hello(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) milkyway.JsonObject {
return &Person{Name: "Ola Nordmann"}
}
func main() {
way := milkyway.GenMilkyway()
way.Route("GET", "^/test$", hello)
way.Serve()
}
This will give the following output from curl -v localhost:8080/test:
< HTTP/1.1 200 OK
< Content-Type: application/json
< Date: Wed, 19 Sep 2018 02:12:10 GMT
< Content-Length: 24
<
{"name":"Ola Nordmann"}
Errors look like this:
< HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
< Content-Type: application/json
< Date: Wed, 19 Sep 2018 02:19:32 GMT
< Content-Length: 33
<
{"msg":"Not Found","status":404}
To turn off JSON errors, do way.JsonErrors = false.
go test
