Pure is a fast radix-tree based HTTP router that sticks to the native implementations of Go's "net/http" package; in essence, keeping the handler implementations 'pure' by using Go 1.7's "context" package.
This makes heavy usage of github.com/go-playground/pkg/v5 for HTTP abstractions.
I initially created lars, which I still maintain, that wraps the native implementation, think of this package as a Go pure implementation of lars
- It sticks to Go's native implementations while providing helper functions for convenience
- Fast & Efficient - pure uses a custom version of httprouter's radix tree, so incredibly fast and efficient.
Use go get
go get -u github.com/go-playground/pure/v5package main
import (
"net/http"
"github.com/go-playground/pure/v5"
mw "github.com/go-playground/pure/v5/_examples/middleware/logging-recovery"
)
func main() {
p := pure.New()
p.Use(mw.LoggingAndRecovery(true))
p.Get("/", helloWorld)
http.ListenAndServe(":3007", p.Serve())
}
func helloWorld(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
w.Write([]byte("Hello World"))
}This is an interface that is used to pass request scoped variables and functions using context.Context.
It is implemented in this way because retrieving values from context isn't the fastest, and so using this
the router can store multiple pieces of information while reducing lookup time to a single stored RequestVars.
Currently only the URL/SEO params are stored on the RequestVars but if/when more is added they can merely be added
to the RequestVars and there will be no additional lookup time.
p := p.New()
// the matching param will be stored in the context's params with name "id"
p.Get("/user/:id", UserHandler)
// extract params like so
rv := pure.RequestVars(r) // done this way so only have to extract from context once, read above
rv.URLParam(paramname)
// serve css, js etc.. pure.RequestVars(r).URLParam(pure.WildcardParam) will return the remaining path if
// you need to use it in a custom handler...
p.Get("/static/*", http.StripPrefix("/static/", http.FileServer(http.Dir("static"))).ServeHTTP)
...Note: Since this router has only explicit matches, you can not register static routes and parameters for the same path segment. For example you can not register the patterns /user/new and /user/:user for the same request method at the same time. The routing of different request methods is independent from each other. I was initially against this, however it nearly cost me in a large web application where the dynamic param value say :type actually could have matched another static route and that's just too dangerous and so it is not allowed.
p.Use(LoggingAndRecovery, Gzip...)
...
p.Post("/users/add", ...)
// creates a group for /user/:userid + inherits all middleware registered previously by p
user := p.Group("/user/:userid")
user.Get("", ...)
user.Post("", ...)
user.Delete("/delete", ...)
contactInfo := user.Group("/contact-info/:cid")
contactinfo.Delete("/delete", ...)
// creates a group for /others, inherits all middleware registered previously by p + adds
// OtherHandler to middleware
others := p.GroupWithMore("/others", OtherHandler)
// creates a group for /admin WITH NO MIDDLEWARE... more can be added using admin.Use()
admin := p.GroupWithNone("/admin")
admin.Use(SomeAdminSecurityMiddleware)
...currently JSON, XML, FORM, Multipart Form and url.Values are support out of the box; there are also individual functions for each as well when you know the Content-Type.
// second argument denotes yes or no I would like URL query parameter fields
// to be included. i.e. 'id' and 'id2' in route '/user/:id?id2=val' should it be included.
if err := pure.Decode(r, true, maxBytes, &user); err != nil {
log.Println(err)
}// set custom 404 ( not Found ) handler
p.Register404(404Handler, middleware_like_logging)
// Redirect to or from ending slash if route not found, default is true
p.SetRedirectTrailingSlash(true)
// Handle 405 ( Method Not allowed ), default is false
p.RegisterMethodNotAllowed(middleware)
// automatically handle OPTION requests; manually configured
// OPTION handlers take precedence. default false
p.RegisterAutomaticOPTIONS(middleware)There are some pre-defined middlewares within the middleware folder; NOTE: that the middleware inside will comply with the following rule(s):
- Are completely reusable by the community without modification
Other middleware will be listed under the _examples/middleware/... folder for a quick copy/paste modify. As an example a LoddingAndRecovery middleware is very application dependent and therefore will be listed under the _examples/middleware/...

NOTICE: pure uses a custom version of httprouter's radix tree, benchmarks can be found here the slowdown is with the use of the context package, as you can see when no SEO params are defined, and therefore no need to store anything in the context, it is faster than even lars.
