Go Web

Go-web is a tiny HTTP web server library which leverages go-micro to create micro web services as first class citizens in a microservice ecosystem. It's merely a wrapper around registration, heartbeating and initialization of the go-micro client. In the future go-platform features may be included.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Go-web uses a similar pattern to go-micro. Look at the go-micro readme for starting up the registry.

Usage

service := web.NewService(
	web.Name("go.micro.web.example"),
	web.Version("latest"),
)

service.HandleFunc("/foo", fooHandler)

if err := service.Init(); err != nil {
	log.Fatal(err)
}

if err := service.Run(); err != nil {
	log.Fatal(err)
}

Use your own Handler

You might have a preference for a HTTP handler, so use something else. This loses the ability to register endpoints in discovery but we'll fix that soon.

import "github.com/gorilla/mux"

r := mux.NewRouter()
r.HandleFunc("/", indexHandler)
r.HandleFunc("/objects/{object}", objectHandler)

service := web.NewService(
	web.Handler(r)
)
