route

mod/route

mod/route contains stable service route constants shared by server, source discovery, tests, and generated-facing helpers. It prevents packages from spelling /health, /info, OpenAPI, metrics, logo, and similar routes differently.

Place in the Runtime

  source["source discovery"] --> route["mod/route"]

  tests["tests"] --> route

Responsibilities

• Define service-level routes that are independent of a package key or version.
• Keep discovery probes and server handlers aligned.
• Provide one place to audit routes that are expected to be stable across deployments.

Contracts

• Route constants are path-only strings beginning with /.
• Package-manager routes that depend on {key} or {version} stay with their domain builder.
• Adding a new public service route should update this package, the server handler, and the relevant README.

Important Files

• route.go: service route constants.

Usage Notes

Do not put helper functions here unless they are shared by more than one package. Most URL building belongs in mod/server/link because it needs listener, scheme, prefix, and host context.
