# Denco [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/naoina/denco.png?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/naoina/denco)

The fast and flexible HTTP request router for [Go](http://golang.org).

Denco is based on Double-Array implementation of [Kocha-urlrouter](https://github.com/naoina/kocha-urlrouter).
However, Denco is optimized and some features added.

## Features

* Fast (See [go-http-routing-benchmark](https://github.com/naoina/go-http-routing-benchmark))
* [URL patterns](#url-patterns) (`/foo/:bar` and `/foo/*wildcard`)
* Small (but enough) URL router API
* HTTP request multiplexer like `http.ServeMux`

## Installation

    go get -u github.com/go-openapi/runtime/middleware/denco

## Using as HTTP request multiplexer

```go
package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "log"
    "net/http"

    "github.com/go-openapi/runtime/middleware/denco"
)

func Index(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request, params denco.Params) {
    fmt.Fprintf(w, "Welcome to Denco!\n")
}

func User(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request, params denco.Params) {
    fmt.Fprintf(w, "Hello %s!\n", params.Get("name"))
}

func main() {
    mux := denco.NewMux()
    handler, err := mux.Build([]denco.Handler{
        mux.GET("/", Index),
        mux.GET("/user/:name", User),
        mux.POST("/user/:name", User),
    })
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
    log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe(":8080", handler))
}
```

## Using as URL router

```go
package main

import (
	"fmt"

	"github.com/go-openapi/runtime/middleware/denco"
)

type route struct {
	name string
}

func main() {
	router := denco.New()
	router.Build([]denco.Record{
		{"/", &route{"root"}},
		{"/user/:id", &route{"user"}},
		{"/user/:name/:id", &route{"username"}},
		{"/static/*filepath", &route{"static"}},
	})

	data, params, found := router.Lookup("/")
	// print `&main.route{name:"root"}, denco.Params(nil), true`.
	fmt.Printf("%#v, %#v, %#v\n", data, params, found)

	data, params, found = router.Lookup("/user/hoge")
	// print `&main.route{name:"user"}, denco.Params{denco.Param{Name:"id", Value:"hoge"}}, true`.
	fmt.Printf("%#v, %#v, %#v\n", data, params, found)

	data, params, found = router.Lookup("/user/hoge/7")
	// print `&main.route{name:"username"}, denco.Params{denco.Param{Name:"name", Value:"hoge"}, denco.Param{Name:"id", Value:"7"}}, true`.
	fmt.Printf("%#v, %#v, %#v\n", data, params, found)

	data, params, found = router.Lookup("/static/path/to/file")
	// print `&main.route{name:"static"}, denco.Params{denco.Param{Name:"filepath", Value:"path/to/file"}}, true`.
	fmt.Printf("%#v, %#v, %#v\n", data, params, found)
}
```

## Getting the value of path parameter

You can get the value of path parameter by 2 ways.

1. Using [`denco.Params.Get`](http://godoc.org/github.com/go-openapi/runtime/middleware/denco#Params.Get) method
2. Find by loop

```go
package main

import (
    "fmt"

    "github.com/go-openapi/runtime/middleware/denco"
)

func main() {
    router := denco.New()
    if err := router.Build([]denco.Record{
        {"/user/:name/:id", "route1"},
    }); err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }

    // 1. Using denco.Params.Get method.
    _, params, _ := router.Lookup("/user/alice/1")
    name := params.Get("name")
    if name != "" {
        fmt.Printf("Hello %s.\n", name) // prints "Hello alice.".
    }

    // 2. Find by loop.
    for _, param := range params {
        if param.Name == "name" {
            fmt.Printf("Hello %s.\n", name) // prints "Hello alice.".
        }
    }
}
```

## URL patterns

Denco's route matching strategy is "most nearly matching".

When routes `/:name` and `/alice` have been built, URI `/alice` matches the route `/alice`, not `/:name`.
Because URI `/alice` is more match with the route `/alice` than `/:name`.

For more example, when routes below have been built:

```
/user/alice
/user/:name
/user/:name/:id
/user/alice/:id
/user/:id/bob
```

Routes matching are:

```
/user/alice      => "/user/alice" (no match with "/user/:name")
/user/bob        => "/user/:name"
/user/naoina/1   => "/user/:name/1"
/user/alice/1    => "/user/alice/:id" (no match with "/user/:name/:id")
/user/1/bob      => "/user/:id/bob"   (no match with "/user/:name/:id")
/user/alice/bob  => "/user/alice/:id" (no match with "/user/:name/:id" and "/user/:id/bob")
```

## Limitation

Denco has some limitations below.

* Number of param records (such as `/:name`) must be less than 2^22
* Number of elements of internal slice must be less than 2^22
