Features

• HTTP Routers - Provides a lightweight, idiomatic router for building modular web services in Go.
• Middleware Frameworks - Offers a composable framework for managing request processing components like logging and authentication.
• RESTful APIs - Delivers a toolkit for managing request context, parameters, and routing in RESTful web services.
• Request Routing - Directs incoming network requests to appropriate handlers using a flexible, pattern-based routing system.
• HTTP Routing - Defines structured URL patterns and path parameters to direct traffic to specific handler functions.
• Middleware Chains - Provides a structured pipeline for processing HTTP requests through sequences of reusable middleware components.
• HTTP Routing - Small and expressive HTTP router.
• Language Toolkits - Lightweight, idiomatic router for Go HTTP services.
• Web Frameworks - Lightweight, idiomatic, and composable HTTP router.
• Recursive Router Mountings - Supports mounting independent sub-routers to create modular, hierarchical application structures.
• Middleware Orchestration - Orchestrates sequences of request processing logic to handle cross-cutting concerns across application endpoints.
• Radix Tree Routers - Implements high-performance request routing using a compressed radix tree structure for efficient path matching.
• Role-Based Access Control - Restricts access to sensitive resources by verifying user permissions against defined roles.
• Request Context - Manages request-specific data and state throughout the lifecycle of an incoming network request.
• Request Context Propagation - Facilitates passing metadata and request-scoped state through the middleware stack to final handlers.
• Request Middleware - Provides built-in utilities for common request processing tasks like compression and authentication.
• Standard Libraries - Integrates directly with standard library interfaces to ensure compatibility with existing ecosystem tools.
