go get github.com/go-gorf/gorfInstall gorf auth app
go get github.com/go-gorf/authFirstly, Create a new main package with following code
package main
import (
"log"
)
func main() {
r := BootstrapRouter()
err := r.Run()
if err != nil {
log.Fatal("Unable to create the gin server")
} // listen and serve on 0.0.0.0:8080 (for windows "localhost:8080")
}Next, Create a settings.go file in the main package with the following code snippet
package main
import (
"github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
"github.com/go-gorf/auth"
"github.com/go-gorf/gorf"
)
// add all the apps
var apps = []gorf.GorfApp{
&auth.AuthApp,
}
func LoadSettings() {
// jwt secret key
gorf.Settings.SecretKey = "GOo8Rs8ht7qdxv6uUAjkQuopRGnql2zWJu08YleBx6pEv0cQ09a"
gorf.Settings.DbConf = &gorf.SqliteBackend{
Name: "db.sqlite",
}
}
// bootstrap server
func BootstrapRouter() *gin.Engine {
gorf.Apps = append(apps)
LoadSettings()
gorf.InitializeDatabase()
gorf.SetupApps()
r := gin.Default()
gorf.RegisterApps(r)
return r
}Create a new package named "hello"
add app.go file
package hello
import (
"github.com/go-gorf/gorf"
)
func setup() error {
// Add setup here
return nil
}
var HelloApp = gorf.GorfBaseApp{
Name: "Hello",
RouteHandler: Urls,
SetUpHandler: setup,
}add urls.go file
package hello
import "github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
func Urls(r *gin.Engine) {
r.POST("/hello", Hello)
}add views.go file
package hello
import (
"github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
"net/http"
)
func Hello(ctx *gin.Context) {
ctx.JSON(http.StatusOK, gin.H{
"message": "Hello world",
})
}
