A Golang Movie CRUD API is an application that allows you to Create, Read, Update, and Delete movie records using the Go programming language.

Golang_Movie_CrudApi

This is a simple Go (Golang) application that demonstrates how to build a basic CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) API for managing movie records. It uses the Gorilla Mux router for handling HTTP requests. In this example, movie data is stored in-memory, but it can easily be adapted to use a database.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Before you can run this project, make sure you have the following installed:

• Go (Golang): [Download and Install Go]

1. Clone this repository to your local machine:

git clone https://github.com/your-username/movie-crud-api.git

2. Change to the project directory:

cd movie-crud-api

3. Install project dependencies using Go modules:

go mod download

Usage

Starting the Server

You can start the Go server by running the following command:

go run main.go

The server will start and listen on port 8080. You can access the API at [http://localhost:8080.]

API Endpoints

The API provides the following endpoints for managing movie records:

• GET /movies: Retrieve a list of all movies.
• GET /movies/{id}: Retrieve a specific movie by its ID.
• POST /movies: Create a new movie.
• PUT /movies/{id}: Update a movie by its ID.
• DELETE /movies/{id}: Delete a movie by its ID.

You can use an API client (e.g., Postman or cURL) to make HTTP requests to these endpoints.

Data Model

In this example, movie data is stored in-memory. The data model includes the following entities:

• Movie: Represents a movie record with attributes like ID, ISBN, Title, and Director.
• Director: Represents the director of a movie with attributes like Firstname and Lastname. In a real-world application, you would typically use a database to store and manage movie records.
