How to Route Multi URL with Same Prefix Using Gin

By Posted on

Gin (Gin-Gonic) is a powerful HTTP web framework. It is famous among Golang Developers. Let’s say you want to route some microservice hosted in your site using prefix url, i.e: yoursite.com/myservice this simple code that use Gin will make your life easier. Using RouterGroup feature you can navigate URL with prefix more faster.

package main

import "github.com/gin-gonic/gin"

func main() {
    r := gin.Default()
    v1 := r.Group("/myservice")
    {
        api := v1.Group("/api/v1")
        {
            api.GET("/", func(c *gin.Context) {
                c.JSON(200, gin.H{
                    "message": "Success!",
                })
            })
        }
    }
    r.Run() // listen and serve on 0.0.0.0:8080}

When you try to access yoursite.com/myservice/api/v1 you will get this logs.

[GIN-debug] GET /myservice/api/v1/ --> main.main.func1 (3 handlers)

Easy right!

PS: Another syntax to serve url with prefix.

router.GET("/myservice/api/*any", gin.WrapH(http.DefaultServeMux))
