Middleware

Iris has it's build'n small middleware(s) here

Structure

All Iris build'n middleware(s) belong here, to this folder 'iris/middleware'* middleware is also the package name.

Each middleware must be written to it's own folder.

How to write

Simple, Import iris and use it to the middleware

import (
	iris "github.com/kataras/iris"
)

Notice: We recommend that each middleware exports only one Function which returns an object that implements the iris.Handler (func Serve(ctx *iris.Context){}). Look here for an example

How to use a middleware

package main

import (
	"github.com/kataras/iris"
	"github.com/kataras/iris/middleware/gzip"
)

type Page struct {
	Title string
}

func main() {
	iris.Templates("./_examples/compression_gzip/templates/*.html")
	
	// here is how to use a middleware
	iris.Use(gzip.Gzip(gzip.DefaultCompression))
	
	iris.Get("/public/*static", iris.Static("./_examples/compression_gzip/static/", "/public/"))

	iris.Get("/", func(c *iris.Context) {
		c.RenderFile("index.html", Page{"My Index Title"})
	})

	iris.Listen(":8080")
}
