Pantofola REST

Simple and fast framework to create awesome REST APIs in seconds!

Features

Incredible fast routing
Optimized for dynamic path with multiple parameters
Namad paramters
Parameter pool for 0 allocations and max speed
Middlwares (included: cors, no-cache, simple logging)
Cascade routers for complex API
Panic handler
Static files

All this speed comes to a cost, a good amout of used memory due to the pool and a really slow initialization process.

Please notice that adding path after initialization is not a good practice because it leads to temporary performance degradation. Inizialitation is not designed to be fast, all the speed comes after the cost of booting everything!

Example API

This simple code is just a sample to demostrate how simple and clean is the code to create a REST API with pantofola-rest.

import (
	"fmt"
	"net/http"
	pantofola "github.com/rickycorte/pantofola-rest/router"
)

// hello is our first handler!
func hello(w http.ResponseWriter, _ *http.Request, _ *ParameterList) {
	w.WriteHeader(200)
	fmt.Fprintf(w, "Hi sen(pi) <3")
}

// generic handler for a parametric route that prints available values by name
func writeData(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request, p *pantofola.ParameterList) {
	w.WriteHeader(200)
	fmt.Fprintf(w, r.RequestURI+"\n\nUser: "+p.Get("user")
		+"\nActivity: "+p.Get("activity")+"\nComment: "+p.Get("comment"))
}

func main() {

    mainRouter := router.MakeRouter() // create the main router used by our app
	
	// we add our handler as the main router
    mainRouter.GET("/hello", hello) 
	
	// let's make some parametric handlers
	mainRouter.GET("/activity/:user", writeData)
	mainRouter.GET("/activity/:user/:activity", writeData)
	mainRouter.GET("/activity/:user/:activity/comments/:comment", writeData)

    http.ListenAndServe(":8080", mainRouter) // start the server end enjoy your REST API!
}
