SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines the process of building RESTful APIs by mapping struct methods to HTTP routes, reducing boilerplate code.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automatic Routing: Maps exported struct methods to HTTP endpoints driven by naming conventions.
  • Nested Services: Supports hierarchical service structures for versioning and logical grouping.
  • Request Binding and Validation: Automates binding incoming data to structs, with validation support.
  • Template Rendering: Integrates a view engine to serve HTML with layouts and embedded assets.
  • Use Case: Quickly develop a web backend with structured routes and dynamic HTML templates without manually writing router code.

Quick Start

Use the restruct package to define services, set up routes, and handle request processing with minimal configuration.

FAQPage Schema
How do I map struct methods to HTTP routes in a Go web API?

Mapping struct methods to HTTP routes in a Go web API is done by exporting methods from a struct, which automatically generates routes based on naming conventions. This reduces boilerplate router code.

How do I automatically parse and validate incoming request data in Go?

Automatic request parsing and validation in Go is handled by binding incoming data directly to structs. This process validates the payload automatically without requiring manual extraction logic.

Can I build hierarchical API routes for versioning in Go?

Building hierarchical API routes for versioning in Go is supported through nested service structures. This allows logical grouping of endpoints and straightforward API version management.

What is the best way to serve HTML templates with layouts in a Go backend?

Serving HTML templates with layouts in a Go backend is achieved through an integrated view engine. It renders dynamic HTML while supporting embedded assets for frontend interfaces.

How do I handle API errors and customize responses in Go?

Handling API errors and customizing responses in Go is supported through built-in middleware execution. This ensures safe processing and allows configurable error outputs for web APIs.

Do I need to manually write router code to build scalable web APIs in Go?

Manually writing router code to build scalable web APIs in Go is unnecessary. Struct-based routing automatically generates HTTP endpoints from method names, streamlining backend development.
