})
// serving JSON
mux.HandleFunc("/json", func(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
r.JSON(w, http.StatusOK, usr)
})
// serving JSONP
mux.HandleFunc("/jsonp", func(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {

r.YAML(w, http.StatusOK, usr)
})
// serving File as arbitary binary data
mux.HandleFunc("/binary", func(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {

var reader io.Reader
reader, _ = os.Open("../README.md")
r.File(w, http.StatusOK, reader, "readme.md", true)
})
// serving custom response using render and chaining methods
mux.HandleFunc("/render", func(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
w.Header().Set(renderer.ContentType, renderer.ContentText)
r.Render(w, http.StatusOK, []byte("Send the message as text response"))
})
port := ":9000"
log.Println("Listening on port", port)
http.ListenAndServe(port, mux)
}How to render html template?
Well, you can parse html template using HTML, View, Template any of these method. These are based on html/template package.
When using Template method you can simply pass the base layouts, templates path as a slice of string.
Template example
You can parse template on the fly using Template method. You can set delimiter, inject FuncMap easily.
template/layout.tmpl
<html>
<head>
<title>{{ template "title" . }}</title>
</head>
<body>
{{ template "content" . }}
</body>
{{ block "sidebar" .}}{{end}}
</html>template/index.tmpl
{{ define "title" }}Home{{ end }}
{{ define "content" }}
<h1>Hello, {{ .Name | toUpper }}</h1>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit.</p>
{{ end }}template/partial.tmpl
{{define "sidebar"}}
simple sidebar code
{{end}}template.go
package main
import (
"html/template"
"log"
"net/http"
"strings"
"github.com/thedevsaddam/renderer"
)
var r *renderer.Render
var err error
func init() {
r = renderer.New()
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
}
func toUpper(s string) string {
return strings.ToUpper(s)
}
func handler(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
usr := struct {
Name string
Age int
}{"john doe", 30}
tpls := []string{"template/layout.tmpl", "template/index.tmpl", "template/partial.tmpl"}
r.FuncMap(template.FuncMap{
"toUpper": toUpper,
})
err = r.Template(w, http.StatusOK, tpls, usr)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err) //respond with error page or message
}
}
func main() {
http.HandleFunc("/", handler)
log.Println("Listening port: 9000")
http.ListenAndServe(":9000", nil)
}HTML example
When using HTML you can parse a template directory using pattern and call the template by their name. See the example code below:
html/index.html
{{define "indexPage"}}
<html>
{{template "header"}}
<body>
<h3>Index</h3>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit</p>
</body>
{{template "footer"}}
</html>
{{end}}html/header.html
{{define "header"}}
<head>
<title>Header</title>
<h1>Header section</h1>
</head>
{{end}}html/footer.html
{{define "footer"}}
<footer>Copyright © 2020</footer>
{{end}}html.go
package main
import (
"log"
"net/http"
"github.com/thedevsaddam/renderer"
)
var r *renderer.Render
func init() {
r = renderer.New(
renderer.Options{
ParseGlobPattern: "html/*.html",
},
)
}
func handler(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
err := r.HTML(w, http.StatusOK, "indexPage", nil)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
}
func main() {
http.HandleFunc("/", handler)
log.Println("Listening port: 9000")
http.ListenAndServe(":9000", nil)
}View example
When using View for parsing template you can pass multiple layout and templates. Here template name will be the file name. See the example to get the idea.
view/base.lout
<html>
<head>
<title>{{block "title" .}} {{end}}</title>
</head>
<body>
{{ template "content" . }}
</body>
</html>view/home.tpl
{{define "title"}}Home{{end}}
{{define "content"}}
<h3>Home page</h3>
<ul>
<li><a href="/">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="/about">About Me</a></li>
</ul>
<p>
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</p>
{{end}}view/about.tpl
{{define "title"}}About Me{{end}}
{{define "content"}}
<h2>This is About me page.</h2>
<ul>
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit,
</ul>
<p><a href="/">Home</a></p>
{{end}}view.go
package main
import (
"log"
"net/http"
"github.com/thedevsaddam/renderer"
)
var r *renderer.Render
var err error
func init() {
r = renderer.New(renderer.Options{
TemplateDir: "view",
})
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
}
func home(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
err = r.VIEW(w, http.StatusOK, "home", nil)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
}
func about(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
err = r.VIEW(w, http.StatusOK, "about", nil)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
}
func main() {
http.HandleFunc("/", home)
http.HandleFunc("/about", about)
log.Println("Listening port: 9000\n / is root \n /about is about page")
http.ListenAndServe(":9000", nil)
