REST-API
REST-API adds a layer on top of go-restful to make it faster to get up and running. It uses some code from the excellent goji project and integrates a few other libraries to facilitate database access, logging, graceful shutdown etc...
Usage example
package main
import (
"github.com/emicklei/go-restful"
"github.com/jinzhu/gorm"
"github.com/johnwilson/restapi"
"github.com/johnwilson/restapi/plugins"
"github.com/johnwilson/restapi/system"
)
type MainController struct {
system.Controller
}
func (ct *MainController) Register(container *restful.Container) {
ct.Controller.Register(container)
ws := new(restful.WebService)
ws.Route(ws.GET("/").To(ct.DBVersion))
container.Add(ws)
}
func (ct *MainController) DBVersion(r *restful.Request, w *restful.Response) {
orm := ct.GetPlugin("orm", r).(*gorm.DB)
res := orm.Raw("SELECT sqlite_version();")
var version string
res.Row().Scan(&version)
msg := map[string]string{"db": version}
w.WriteJson(msg, "application/json")
}
func main() {
app := restapi.NewApplication("config.toml")
// plugins
app.RegisterPlugin("orm", new(plugins.Gorm))
ct := MainController{}
ct.Register(app.Container)
app.Start()
}
