// Party is here to separate the concept of
// api builder and the sub api builder.

// Party is just a group joiner of routes which have the same prefix and share same middleware(s) also.
// Party could also be named as 'Join' or 'Node' or 'Group' , Party chosen because it is fun.
//
// Look the "APIBuilder" for its implementation.

	// However this function accepts a function that receives this created Party instead.
	// Returns the Party in order the caller to be able to use this created Party to continue the
	// top-bottom routes "tree".
	//
	// Note: `iris#Party` and `core/router#Party` describes the exactly same interface.
	//
	// Usage:
	// app.PartyFunc("/users", func(u iris.Party){
	//	u.Use(authMiddleware, logMiddleware)
	//	u.Get("/", getAllUsers)
	//	u.Post("/", createOrUpdateUser)
	//	u.Delete("/", deleteUser)

	// otherwise use `Party` which can handle many paths with different handlers and middlewares.

	// 	app.Handle(iris.MethodGet, "/user/{id:int}", userHandler)

	// Controller registers a `Controller` instance and returns the registered Routes.
	// The "controller" receiver should embed a field of `Controller` in order

	//
	// It's just an alternative way of building an API for a specific
	// path, the controller can register all type of http methods.
	//
	// Keep note that controllers are bit slow
	// because of the reflection use however it's as fast as possible because
	// it does preparation before the serve-time handler but still
	// remains slower than the low-level handlers
	// such as `Handle, Get, Post, Put, Delete, Connect, Head, Trace, Patch`.
	//
	//
	// All fields that are tagged with iris:"persistence"` or binded
	// are being persistence and kept the same between the different requests.

	// An Example Controller can be:
	//
	// type IndexController struct {
	// 	Controller
	// }
	//
	// func (c *IndexController) Get() {
	// 	c.Tmpl = "index.html"

	// 	c.Data["message"] = "Hello world!"
	// }
	//
	// Usage: app.Controller("/", new(IndexController))
	//
	//
	// Another example with bind:
	//
	// type UserController struct {
	// 	Controller
	//
	// 	DB        *DB
	// 	CreatedAt time.Time
	//
	// }

	// 	c.Data["title"] = "User Page"
	// 	c.Data["username"] = "kataras " + c.Params.Get("userid")
	// 	c.Data["connstring"] = c.DB.Connstring
	// 	c.Data["uptime"] = time.Now().Sub(c.CreatedAt).Seconds()
	// }
	//
	// Usage: app.Controller("/user/{id:int}", new(UserController), db, time.Now())
	// Note: Binded values of context.Handler type are being recognised as middlewares by the router.
	//
	// Read more at `/mvc#Controller`.

	// StaticHandler returns a new Handler which is ready

	// Third parameter is the Asset function
	// Forth parameter is the AssetNames function.

	// this func will add a route for you which will static serve the /yuorpath/yourfile.ico to the /yourfile.ico
