ucon

ucon is a web application framework, which is pluggable by Middleware and Plugin.

ucon is the name of turmeric in Japanese. ucon knocks down any alcohol. :)

Install

go get -u github.com/favclip/ucon

Get Start

Getting start using ucon, you should setup the http server. If you decided to using ucon, it is very simple. Let's take a look at the following code.

package main

import (
	"net/http"
	
	"github.com/favclip/ucon/v3"
)

func main() {
	ucon.Orthodox()

	ucon.HandleFunc("GET", "/", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
		w.Write([]byte("Hello World!"))
	})

	ucon.ListenAndServe(":8080")
}

Next, execute go run to run the server.

go run main.go

Then, you can get Hello World! on localhost:8080.

You can find more examples in /sample directory if you want.

Features

  • Compatible interface with net/http
  • Flexible routing configuration
  • Middleware - Extendable request handler
    • Powerful DI (Dependency Injection) system
  • Plugin - Easy to customize the server
  • Orthodox() - Standard features provider
  • Helpful utilities for testing
  • Run on Google App Engine and more platform
  • Opt-in plugin for Swagger(Open API Initiative)

Run a server

ucon.ListenAndServe function starts new http server. This function is fully compatible with http.ListenAndServe except which doesn't have second argument.

If you want to use ucon on existing server, see "With existing server".

Routing

Routing of ucon is set by the Handle function or HandleFunc function. HandleFunc registers the function object as a request handler. If you want to make a complex request handler, you can use Handle function with a object which implements HandlerContainer interface.

The different from http package is that ucon requires HTTP request method to configure routing. (This is a necessary approach to improve friendliness for some platforms like Google Cloud Endpoints or Swagger.) Even if paths are same, different request handler is required for each request method. However, the request handler for the wildcard (*) is valid for all of the request method.

  • HandleFunc("GET", "/a/", ...) will match a GET request for /a/b or /a/b/c, but won't match a POST request for /a/b or a GET request for /a.
  • HandleFunc("*", "/", ...) can match any requests.
  • If there are two routing, (A)HandleFunc("GET", "/a", ...) and (B)HandleFunc("GET", "/a/", ...), a request for /a will match (A), but a request for /a/b will match (B).
  • HandleFunc("GET", "/users/{id}", ...) will match requests like /users/1 or /users/foo/bar but won't match /users.

Middleware

Middleware is a preprocessor which is executed in between server and request handler. Some of Middleware are provided as standard, and when you run the ucon.Orthodox(), the following Middleware will be loaded.

  • ResponseMapper - Converts the return value of the request handler to JSON.
  • HTTPRWDI - Injects dependencies of http.Request and http.ResponseWriter.
  • NetContextDI - Injects context.Context dependency.
  • RequestObjectMapper - Convert the parameters and data in the request to the argument of the request handler.

Of course, you can create your own Middleware. As an example, let's create a Middleware to write the log to stdout each time it receives a request.

Middleware is a function expressed as func(b *ucon.Bubble) error. Write Logger function into main.go.

func Logger(b *ucon.Bubble) error {
	fmt.Printf("Received: %s %s\n", b.R.Method, b.R.URL.String())
	return b.Next()
}

Next, Register Logger as Middleware. Call ucon.Middleware() to register a Middleware.

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"net/http"
	
	"github.com/favclip/ucon/v3"
)

func main() {
	ucon.Orthodox()

	ucon.Middleware(Logger)

	ucon.HandleFunc("GET", "/", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
		w.Write([]byte("Hello World!"))
	})

	ucon.ListenAndServe(":8080")
}

func Logger(b *ucon.Bubble) error {
	fmt.Printf("Received: %s %s\n", b.R.Method, b.R.URL.String())
	return b.Next()
}

OK! The server will output a log each time it receives the request.

Bubble given to Middleware will carry data until the request reaches the appropriate request handler. Bubble.Next() passes the processing to next Middleware. When All of Middleware has been called, the request handler will be executed.

DI (Dependency Injection)

DI system of ucon is solved by that the Middleware provides the data to Bubble.Arguments. The types of request handler's arguments are contained in Bubble.ArgumentTypes and so Middleware can give a value to each type.

For example, when you add the argument of time.Time type in the request handler, you can add the DI in the following Middleware.

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"net/http"
	"reflect"
	"time"

	"github.com/favclip/ucon/v3"
)

func main() {
	ucon.Orthodox()

	ucon.Middleware(NowInJST)

	ucon.HandleFunc("GET", "/", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request, now time.Time) {
		w.Write([]byte(
		    fmt.Sprintf("Hello World! : %s", now.Format("2006/01/02 15:04:05")))
		)
	})

	ucon.ListenAndServe(":8080")
}

func NowInJST(b *ucon.Bubble) error {
	for idx, argT := range b.ArgumentTypes {
		if argT == reflect.TypeOf(time.Time{}) {
			b.Arguments[idx] = reflect.ValueOf(time.Now())
			break
		}
	}
	return b.Next()
}

Plugin

Plugin is a preprocessor to customize the server. Plugin is not executed each time that comes request like Middleware. It will be executed only once when the server prepares.

sample of swagger will be a help to know how to use a Plugin.

To create a Plugin, you can register the object implements the interface of the Plugin in ucon.Plugin function. Currently, the following Plugin interfaces are provided.

Because the Plugin is given *ServeMux, it is also possible to add the request handler and Middleware by Plugin.

Testing Helper

ucon provides a useful utility to make the unit tests.

MakeMiddlewareTestBed provides a test bed for testing the Middleware. For example, test of NetContextDI Middleware is described as follows.

func TestNetContextDI(t *testing.T) {
	b, _ := MakeMiddlewareTestBed(t, NetContextDI, func(c context.Context) {
		if c == nil {
			t.Errorf("unexpected: %v", c)
		}
	}, nil)
	err := b.Next()
	if err != nil {
		t.Fatal(err)
	}
}

MakeHandlerTestBed provides a test bed for testing the request handler. Request handler must have been registered before calling this function.

In routing_test.go this function is used to describe a test such as the following.

func TestRouterServeHTTP1(t *testing.T) {
	DefaultMux = NewServeMux()
	Orthodox()

	HandleFunc("PUT", "/api/test/{id}", func(req *RequestOfRoutingInfoAddHandlers) (*ResponseOfRoutingInfoAddHandlers, error) {
		if v := req.ID; v != 1 {
			t.Errorf("unexpected: %v", v)
		}
		if v := req.Offset; v != 100 {
			t.Errorf("unexpected: %v", v)
		}
		if v := req.Text; v != "Hi!" {
			t.Errorf("unexpected: %v", v)
		}
		return &ResponseOfRoutingInfoAddHandlers{Text: req.Text + "!"}, nil
	})

	DefaultMux.Prepare()

	resp := MakeHandlerTestBed(t, "PUT", "/api/test/1?offset=100", strings.NewReader("{\"text\":\"Hi!\"}"))

	if v := resp.StatusCode; v != 200 {
		t.Errorf("unexpected: %v", v)
	}

	body, err := ioutil.ReadAll(resp.Body)
	if err != nil {
		t.Fatal(err)
	}
	if v := string(body); v != "{\"text\":\"Hi!!\"}" {
		t.Errorf("unexpected: %v", v)
	}
}

With existing server

Because ucon's ServeMux implements http.Handler interface, it can be easily integrated into existing Golang server by passing the http.Handle function. However before passing it to Handle function, you need to explicitly call ServeMux#Prepare function instead of ucon.ListenAndServe.

You can get default reference of ServeMux by ucon.DefaultMux.

func init() {
	ucon.Orthodox()

    ...
    
	ucon.DefaultMux.Prepare()
	http.Handle("/", ucon.DefaultMux)
}
