|
## Installation
|
|
To create a new `cup` project you need to install the `Goffee's cli` first
|
|
|
|
##### Install Goffee [cli] tool
|
|
To install the `goffee` globally open up your terminal and run the following command:
|
|
```bash
|
|
go install git.smarteching.com/goffee/goffee@latest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
##### Create new project using a Cup of Goffee
|
|
Here is how you can create new `Goffee` projects
|
|
```bash
|
|
goffee new [project-name] [project-remote-repository]
|
|
```
|
|
Example
|
|
```bash
|
|
goffee new myapp git.smarteching.com/goffee/myapp
|
|
```
|
|
where:
|
|
`project-name` is the name of your project
|
|
`remote-repository` is the remote repository that will host the project.
|
|
|
|
## Getting started
|
|
First make sure you have [Goffee](https://git.smarteching.com/goffee/goffee) installed, then use it to create a new project, [here is how](https://git.smarteching.com/goffee/goffee/docs/gaffer#create-new-project-using-gaffer)
|
|
|
|
Let's create a route that returns `hello world`
|
|
|
|
Open up the file `routes.go` in the root directory of your project and add the following code:
|
|
```go "defining a route"
|
|
router.Get("/greeting", func(c *core.Context) *core.Response {
|
|
JsonString := `{"message": "hello world"}`
|
|
|
|
return c.Response.Json(JsonString)
|
|
})
|
|
```
|
|
Next, in your terminal navigate to the project dir and run the following command to start the `live reloading`:
|
|
```go
|
|
goffee run:dev
|
|
```
|
|
Finally, open up your browser and navigate to `http://localhost/greeting`
|
|
|
|
To learn more check the [routing docs section](https://git.smarteching.com/goffee/goffee/docs/routing)
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Architecture
|
|
The architecture is similar to `MVC`, where there is a routes file `./routes.go` in which you can map all your app routes to their controllers which resides in the directory `./controllers`. Controllers are simply methods that handles requests (GET, POST, ... etch) to the given routes.
|
|
|
|
## The request journey:
|
|
The first component that receive's the request in `Cup` is the `Router`,
|
|
then `Goffee` locates the matching [handler](https://git.smarteching.com/goffee/docs/handlers) of the request and it check's if there are any [hooks](https://git.smarteching.com/goffee/docs/hooks) to be executed either before or after the [controller](https://git.smarteching.com/goffee/controllers), if so, it executes them in the right order, then at the final stage it returns the response to the user.
|
|
`Request -> Router -> Optional Hooks -> Controller -> Optional Hooks -> Response`
|
|
|
