Support to route trailing slashes on mounted sub-routers (#281)
middleware: new ContentCharset to check matching charsets. Thank you
@csucu for your community contribution!
v3.3.1 (2017-11-20)
middleware: new AllowContentType handler for explicit whitelist of accepted request Content-Types
middleware: new SetHeader handler for short-hand middleware to set a response header key/value
Minor bug fixes
v3.3.0 (2017-10-10)
New chi.RegisterMethod(method) to add support for custom HTTP methods, see _examples/custom-method for usage
Deprecated LINK and UNLINK methods from the default list, please use chi.RegisterMethod("LINK") and chi.RegisterMethod("UNLINK") in an init() function
v3.2.1 (2017-08-31)
Add new Match(rctx *Context, method, path string) bool method to Routes interface
and Mux. Match searches the mux's routing tree for a handler that matches the method/path
Add new RouteMethod to *Context
Add new Routes pointer to *Context
Add new middleware.GetHead to route missing HEAD requests to GET handler
Updated benchmarks (see README)
v3.1.5 (2017-08-02)
Setup golint and go vet for the project
As per golint, we've redefined func ServerBaseContext(h http.Handler, baseCtx context.Context) http.Handler
to func ServerBaseContext(baseCtx context.Context, h http.Handler) http.Handler
Major update to chi library with many exciting updates, but also some breaking changes
URL parameter syntax changed from /:id to /{id} for even more flexible routing, such as
/articles/{month}-{day}-{year}-{slug}, /articles/{id}, and /articles/{id}.{ext} on the
same router
Support for regexp for routing patterns, in the form of /{paramKey:regExp} for example:
r.Get("/articles/{name:[a-z]+}", h) and chi.URLParam(r, "name")
Add Method and MethodFunc to chi.Router to allow routing definitions such as
r.Method("GET", "/", h) which provides a cleaner interface for custom handlers like
in _examples/custom-handler
Deprecating mux#FileServer helper function. Instead, we encourage users to create their
own using file handler with the stdlib, see _examples/fileserver for an example
Add support for LINK/UNLINK http methods via r.Method() and r.MethodFunc()
Moved the chi project to its own organization, to allow chi-related community packages to
be easily discovered and supported, at: https://github.com/go-chi
NOTE: please update your import paths to "github.com/go-chi/chi"
Minor improvements and update to the chi core library
Introduced a brand new chi/render sub-package to complete the story of building
APIs to offer a pattern for managing well-defined request / response payloads. Please
check out the updated _examples/rest example for how it works.
Added MethodNotAllowed(h http.HandlerFunc) to chi.Router interface
v2.0.0 (2017-01-06)
After many months of v2 being in an RC state with many companies and users running it in
production, the inclusion of some improvements to the middlewares, we are very pleased to
announce v2.0.0 of chi.
v2.0.0-rc1 (2016-07-26)
Huge update! chi v2 is a large refactor targetting Go 1.7+. As of Go 1.7, the popular
community "net/context" package has been included in the standard library as "context" and
utilized by "net/http" and http.Request to managing deadlines, cancelation signals and other
request-scoped values. We're very excited about the new context addition and are proud to
introduce chi v2, a minimal and powerful routing package for building large HTTP services,
with zero external dependencies. Chi focuses on idiomatic design and encourages the use of
stdlib HTTP handlers and middlwares.
chi v2 deprecates its chi.Handler interface and requires http.Handler or http.HandlerFunc
chi v2 stores URL routing parameters and patterns in the standard request context: r.Context()
chi v2 lower-level routing context is accessible by chi.RouteContext(r.Context()) *chi.Context,
which provides direct access to URL routing parameters, the routing path and the matching
routing patterns.
Users upgrading from chi v1 to v2, need to:
1. Update the old chi.Handler signature, func(ctx context.Context, w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) to
the standard http.Handler: func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request)
2. Use chi.URLParam(r *http.Request, paramKey string) string
or URLParamFromCtx(ctx context.Context, paramKey string) string to access a url parameter value
