glaze

glaze

A mini web framework in Go. Glaze currently only provides a simple controller/view abstraction to make it easier to get a simple web app up and running.

This example assumes that you have a view directory laid out like so:

/path/to/views/
	layouts/
		default.html
	public/
		index.html

Glaze will always try to load any layout files from "layouts/*.html" under the given view root. The layout should be inside a {{define "layout"}}...{{end}} block.

controllers/public.go:

package controllers

import (
	"net/http"

	"github.com/octoberxp/glaze"
)

type Public struct {
	*glaze.Controller
}

func NewPublicController() *Public {
	controller, err := glaze.NewController("/path/to/views/", "public")
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}

	return &Public{Controller: controller}
}

func (controller *Public) Index(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	controller.RenderTemplate(w, "index", nil)
}

main.go:

package main

import (
	"net/http"
	
	"exampleapp/controllers"
)

func main() {
	// Instantiate controllers
	public := controllers.NewPublicController()

	// Configure routes
	http.HandleFunc("/", public.Index)

	// And start the server
	http.ListenAndServe(":9000", nil)
}
