VLAN Database Server

This project provides a simple HTTP server for managing a database of VLANs (Virtual Local Area Networks). It provides endpoints for fetching all VLANs and adding new ones. The application also prevents adding VLANs with IDs that are reserved.

Features

• Fetch all VLANs: GET /vlans
• Add a new VLAN: POST /addnew

Technologies

• Golang
• SQLite3
• JSON

Directory Structure

Here is the basic directory structure of this project:

├── main.go
├── handlers
│ └── handler.go
├── types
│ └── types.go
├── db
│ └── db.go
├── static
│ └── (static files to be served, like HTML, CSS, JS)
└── README.md

• main.go: Entry point for the application. This file sets up the HTTP server, defines the routes, and connects to the SQLite3 database.
• handlers/handler.go: Defines the HTTP handlers for the various endpoints. It includes functions to fetch all VLANs from the database and add a new VLAN.
• types/types.go: Defines the data structures (structs) used in this project, such as the Vlan and ReservedVlans structs.
• db/db.go: Manages the database connection and related operations.
• static: A directory that contains static files to be served (if any), such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files.
