rAPI

rAPI is a Go (Golang) package that simplifies building and consuming RESTful APIs. It provides an HTTP handler for creating APIs and a client for making API requests.

Features

Handler features

• Handling by pattern and method
• Accepting query string or request body on GET and HEAD methods
• Setting various options by using HandlerOption's
• Middleware support as a HandleOption

Caller features

• Calling by endpoint and method
• Ability to force request body in GET and HEAD methods
• Setting various options by using CallOption's

Installation

You can install rAPI using the go get command:

go get github.com/goinsane/rapi
