How can i make that my path (for example "localhost/some/api") will be processed by another go service?

Hello @Viktor-Vasilev ,

You have two options here (same as with net/http) use a handler for a specific path or use a proxy server which will transfer all incoming requests to the target url.

Check https://github.com/kataras/iris/blob/master/core/host/proxy.go#L31,
you can use it as

// [...]
import "github.com/kataras/iris/core/host"
// [...]
// proxySrv := iris.New()
u, err := url.Parse("https://localhost:4444")
if err != nil {
	t.Fatalf("%v while parsing url", err)
}

p := host.ProxyHandler(u)
// [...]
app.Get("/some/api", iris.FromStd(p)) 

// or start a new whole proxy server:
go host.NewProxy("myproxy:3232", u).ListenAndServe()

These derives from net/http the only thing that Iris does, is some improvements on the url parsing and able to skip tls if your target is a loopback address (when testing).

For more options and advanced features you can take a look at other libraries, anything compatible with net/http is OK to being used inside iris too, therefore you don't have limitations.
