RoxRouter

RoxRouter is based off of the wonderful pattern matching algorithm of apirouter married to Fasthttp. It is a fast and minimalistic server, that should make a great starting point for your next project (once we come out of alpha).

Why Rox?

You are looking for a lightweight Router with a simple and straight-forward design that you can own.
You need minimal dependencies so as to minimize your attack surface - we include only those of Fasthttp!
You need something robust - Testing is built in
You need flexible static and dynamic routing - Thanks to APIRouter and Fasthttp
You need something fast - Fasthttp is the fastest server for Go, period. See https://web-frameworks-benchmark.netlify.app/result.

Project Status - Alpha

In your projects it is recommended to use a version of Fasthttp close to that used by Rox -- currently 1.41.0

Example

(See also test cases in rox_test.go)

package main

import (
	"log"
	"github.com/valyala/fasthttp"
	"github.com/rohanthewiz/rox"
)

func main() {
	r := rox.New(rox.Options{
		Verbose: true,
		Port:    "3020",
		TLS: rox.TLSOpts {
			UseTLS:   false,
			CertFile: "/etc/letsencrypt/live/mysite.com/cert.pem",
			KeyFile:  "/etc/letsencrypt/live/mysite.com/privkey.pem",
		},
	})

	var customHdlr fasthttp.RequestHandler = func(ctx *fasthttp.RequestCtx) {
		ctx.Response.Header.Add("Content-Type", "text/html")
		_, _ = ctx.WriteString("Yo. It's not found")
	}
	r.Options.CustomNotFoundHandler = &customHdlr

	// Logging middleware
	r.Use(
		func(ctx *fasthttp.RequestCtx) (ok bool) {
			log.Printf("MW:: Requested path: %s\n", ctx.Path())
			return true
		},
		fasthttp.StatusServiceUnavailable, // 503
	)

	// Auth middleware
	r.Use(
		func(ctx *fasthttp.RequestCtx) (ok bool) {
			authed := true // pretend we got a good response from our auth check
			if !authed {
				return false
			}
			log.Printf("MW:: You are authorized for: %s\n", ctx.Path())
			return true
		},
		fasthttp.StatusUnauthorized,
	)

	// Add routes for static files
	r.AddStaticFilesRoute("/images/", "artifacts/images", 1)
	r.AddStaticFilesRoute("/css/", "artifacts/css", 1)
	// r.AddStaticFilesRoute("/.well-known/acme-challenge/", "certs", 0) // great for letsEncrypt!

	r.Get("/", func(ctx *fasthttp.RequestCtx, params rox.Params) {
		ctx.Response.Header.Add("Content-Type", "text/html")
		_, _ = ctx.WriteString("Hello there! Rox here.")
	})
	r.Get("/greet/:name", func(ctx *fasthttp.RequestCtx, params rox.Params) {
		ctx.Response.Header.Add("Content-Type", "text/html")
		_, _ = ctx.WriteString("Hey " + params.ByName("name") + "!")
	})
	r.Get("/greet/city", func(ctx *fasthttp.RequestCtx, params rox.Params) {
		ctx.Response.Header.Add("Content-Type", "text/html")
		_, _ = ctx.WriteString("Hey big city!")
	})
	r.Get("/greet/city/street", func(ctx *fasthttp.RequestCtx, params rox.Params) {
		ctx.Response.Header.Add("Content-Type", "text/html")
		_, _ = ctx.WriteString("Hey big city street!")
	})

	r.Serve()
