Examples that describe how to implement route handlers that accept query parameters and path variables.

// Sample search handler.
search := func(writer http.ResponseWriter, request *http.Request) {
	params := GetParams(request.Context())
	fmt.Printf("Search for: \"%s\"\n", params["s"])
	writer.WriteHeader(200)
}

// Sample get resource handler.
getBookByIsbn := func(writer http.ResponseWriter, request *http.Request) {
	params := GetParams(request.Context())
	fmt.Printf("Get book with ISBN = %s\n", params["isbn"])
	writer.WriteHeader(200)
}

// build the router.
router := NewRouter().
	AddRoute("GET", "/search", search).
	AddRoute("GET", "/book/{isbn}", getBookByIsbn)

// Start the server.
server := httptest.NewServer(router)
defer server.Close()

http.Get(server.URL + "/search?s=stuff+to+search+for")
http.Get(server.URL + "/book/978-0316371247")

Output:

Search for: "stuff to search for"
Get book with ISBN = 978-0316371247
