Frodo (A Tiny Go Web Framework)

Frodo is a Go micro web framework inspired by ExpressJS.

NOTE: I built it to so as to learn Go, and also how frameworks work. A big thanks to TJ Holowaychuk too for the inspiration

Are you looking for the GoDocs Documentation

Updates

• Intergrated(actually interweaved into the code base) and using httprouter as the framework's routing system
• Accepts handlers as middleware now by default, one or more

"Hello world" example

The main.go file:

package main

import (
		"net/http"
		"github.com/kn9ts/frodo"
)

func main() {
	app := frodo.New()

	app.Get("/", one, two, three)
	app.Get("/hello/:name", one, nameFunction)

	app.Serve()
}

And the functions passed as middleware would look like:

package main

func one(w http.ResponseWriter, r *frodo.Request) {
	fmt.Println("Hello, am the 1st middleware!")
	// fmt.Fprint(w, "Hello, I'm 1st!\n")
	r.Next()
}

func two(w http.ResponseWriter, r *frodo.Request) {
	fmt.Println("Hello, am function no. 2!")
	// fmt.Fprint(w, "Hello, am function no. 2!\n")
	r.Next()
}

func three(w http.ResponseWriter, r *frodo.Request) {
	fmt.Println("Hello, am function no 3!")
	fmt.Fprint(w, "Hey, am function no. 3!\n")
}

func nameFunction(w http.ResponseWriter, r *frodo.Request) {
	fmt.Println("Hello there, ", r.GetParam("name"))
	fmt.Fprintf(w, "Hello there, %s!\n", r.GetParam("name"))
}

To do (after Go sabitcal is over)

• Controllers (which will implement a BaseController)
• Controllers can be mixed with the common handlers as middleware
• Ability to detect CRUD requests and run the right controller method, if a controllers are passed as middleware
