wrap

Package wrap creates a fast and flexible middleware stack for http.Handlers.

Build Status Coverage Status GoDoc Total views

Features

  • small; core is only 13 LOC
  • based on http.Handler interface; integrates fine with net/http
  • middleware stacks are http.Handlers too and may be embedded
  • has a solution for per request context sharing
  • freely mix middleware with and without context (same interface)
  • has debugging helper
  • low memory footprint
  • fast
  • easy to create adapters / wrappers for 3rd party middleware

How does it work

Import it via gopkg.in: import "gopkg.in/go-on/wrap.v2".

wrap.New(w ...Wrapper) creates a stack of middlewares. Wrapper is defined as

type Wrapper interface {
    Wrap(next http.Handler) (previous http.Handler)
}

Each wrapper wraps the the http.Handler that comes further down the middleware stack and returns a http.Handler that handles the request previously.

Examples

See example_test.go for a simple example without context and example_context_test.go for an example with context sharing.

Also look into the repository of blessed middleware github.com/go-on/wrap-contrib/wraps.
