pathmatch

a Go generic module that matches proper target(URL(s) etc..) for the basepath.

Installation

    go get github.com/lifthus/pathmatch

Usage

    ...
    PathIntMap := map[string]int{
		"/":      1, // root path / to 1
		"a/a":    2, // /a/a to 2
		"/a/b/":  3, // /a/b to 3
		"/a/b/c": 4, // /a/b/c to 4
		"/a///c": 5, // /a/c to 5
    }
    matcher, err := NewPathMatcher[int](PathIntMap)
    if err != nil {
	t.Errorf("NewPathMatcher has failed: %v", err)
    }

    target, path, ok := matcher.Match("a") // 1, "/a", true
    // root("/") target will be returned, since no basepath is matched.
    // if root path isn't defined, "ok" will be false.

    target, path, ok = matcher.Match("/a/c/def") // 5, "/def", true

    target, path, ok = matcher.Match("a/a///") // 2, "///", true
    // suffix separators without additional segment will be reservered if present.

    target, path, ok = matcher.Match("a/a") // 2, "", true
    // if remaining path is empty, it will be preserved as well, returning empty path without any separator.
    ...

Since it is a generic module, you can use any type of target.
