Overview

package main

import (
	"gopkg.in/kataras/iris.v6"
	"gopkg.in/kataras/iris.v6/adaptors/cors"
	"gopkg.in/kataras/iris.v6/adaptors/httprouter"

func main() {
	// Receives optional iris.Configuration{}, see ./configuration.go

	// Order doesn't matter,
	// You can split it to different .Adapt calls.
	// See ./adaptors folder for more.
	app.Adapt(
		// adapt a logger which prints all errors to the os.Stdout

		// 5 template engines are supported out-of-the-box:
		//

	})

	// Group routes, optionally: share middleware, template layout and custom http errors.

	// send back a response to the client,
	// .JSON: content type as application/json; charset="utf-8"
	// iris.StatusOK: with 200 http status code.

Buy me a cup of coffee?

Iris is free and open source but developing it has taken thousands of hours of my time and a large part of my sanity. If you feel this web framework useful to you, it would go a great way to ensuring that I can afford to take the time to continue to develop it.

I spend all my time in the construction of Iris, therefore I have no income value.

Feel free to send any amount through paypal

Please check your e-mail after your donation.

Thanks for your gratitude and finance help ♡

Third Party Middleware

Iris has its own middleware form of func(ctx *iris.Context) but it’s also compatible with all net/http middleware forms using iris.ToHandler, i.e Negroni’s middleware form of func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request, next http.HandlerFunc).

Here is a small list of Iris compatible middleware, I’m sure you can find more:

Feel free to put up a PR your middleware!

Testing

The httptest package is a simple Iris helper for the httpexpect, a new library for End-to-end HTTP and REST API testing for Go.

You can find tests by navigating to the source code, i.e:

• context_test.go
• handler_test.go
• policy_gorillamux_test.go
• policy_httprouter_test.go
• policy_nativerouter_test.go
• policy_routerwrapper_test.go
• policy_sessions_test.go
• response_writer_test.go
• route_test.go
• status_test.go
• transaction_test.go
• serializer_test.go

A simple test is located to ./_examples/advanced/httptest/main_test.go

Philosophy

The Iris philosophy is to provide robust tooling for HTTP, making it a great solution for single page applications, web sites, hybrids, or public HTTP APIs. Keep note that, today, iris is faster than nginx itself.

Iris does not force you to use any specific ORM or template engine. Iris is routerless which means you can adapt any router you like, httprouter is the fastest, gorillamux has more features. With support for the most used template engines (5), you can quickly craft the perfect application.
