herodot

Build Status Coverage Status

Herodot is a lightweight SDK for writing RESTful responses. It is comparable to render but provides easier error handling. The error model implements the well established Google API Design Guide. Herodot currently supports only JSON responses but can be extended easily.

Herodot is used by ORY Hydra and serves millions of requests already.

Installation

Herodot is versioned using go modules and works best with pkg/errors. To install it, run

go get -u github.com/ory/herodot

Upgrading

Tips on upgrading can be found in UPGRADE.md

Usage

Using Herodot is straightforward. The examples below will help you get started.

JSON

Herodot supplies an interface, allowing to return errors in many data formats like XML and others. Currently, it supports only JSON.

Write responses
var hd = herodot.NewJSONWriter(nil)

func GetHandler(rw http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	// run your business logic here
	hd.Write(rw, r, map[string]interface{}{
	    "key": "value"
	})
}

type MyStruct struct {
	Key string `json:"key"`
}

func GetHandlerWithStruct(rw http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	// business logic
	hd.Write(rw, r, &MyStruct{Key: "value"})
}

func PostHandlerWithStruct(rw http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	// business logic
	hd.WriteCreated(rw, r, "/path/to/the/resource/that/was/created", &MyStruct{Key: "value"})
}

func SomeHandlerWithArbitraryStatusCode(rw http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	// business logic
	hd.WriteCode(rw, r, http.StatusAccepted, &MyStruct{Key: "value"})
}

func SomeHandlerWithArbitraryStatusCode(rw http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	// business logic
	hd.WriteCode(rw, r, http.StatusAccepted, &MyStruct{Key: "value"})
}
Dealing with errors
var writer = herodot.NewJSONWriter(nil)

func GetHandlerWithError(rw http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    if err := someFunctionThatReturnsAnError(); err != nil {
        hd.WriteError(w, r, err)
        return
    }

    // ...
}

func GetHandlerWithErrorCode(rw http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    if err := someFunctionThatReturnsAnError(); err != nil {
        hd.WriteErrorCode(w, r, http.StatusBadRequest, err)
        return
    }

    // ...
}
Errors

Herodot implements the error model of the well established Google API Design Guide. Additionally, it makes the fields request and reason available. A complete Herodot error response looks like this:

{
  "error": {
    "code": 404,
    "status": "some-status",
    "request": "foo",
    "reason": "some-reason",
    "details": [{ "foo": "bar" }],
    "message": "foo"
  }
}

To add context to your errors, implement herodot.ErrorContextCarrier. If you only want to set the status code of errors implement herodot.StatusCodeCarrier.

Constants

View Source 
const StatusClientClosedRequest int = 499

StatusClientClosedRequest (reported as 499 Client Closed Request) is a faux but de-facto standard HTTP status code first used by nginx, indicating the client canceled the request. Because the client canceled, it is never actually reported back to them. 499 is useful purely in logging, tracing, etc.
