Resource Helpers

Restful helpers

In the previous section, we've learned that a single resource supports multiple HTTP methods/path.

If you are not planning to use all the HTTP methods, you can the following helper functions to shorten the code.

Interface

func Helper[Input, Output any](
  name string,
  handler HandlerFn[Input, Output],
  metas ...*Meta,
) *Resource

Example

rs := fs.Get("/path", func(c fs.Context, input *Input) (*Output, error) {
  return &Output{
    Message: "Hello, " + input.Name,
  }, nil
})

Changes compared to the full version

• fs.Get is used instead of fs.NewResource and we don't need to specify the HTTP method in the meta object.
• The path is passed as the first argument and is used as the resource name.

Supported helpers

• fs.Get
• fs.Head
• fs.Post
• fs.Put
• fs.Delete
• fs.Patch
• fs.Options
• fs.Connect
• fs.Trace
