echo "sendgrid.env" >> .gitignore
source ./sendgrid.env

With Docker

A Docker image has been created to allow you to get started with rest right away.

docker-compose up -d --build

# Ensure the container is running with 'docker ps'
docker ps
CONTAINER ID        IMAGE               COMMAND               CREATED              STATUS              PORTS               NAMES
40c8d984a620        rest_go             "tail -f /dev/null"   About a minute ago   Up About a minute                       rest_go_1

With the container running, you can execute your local go scripts using the following:

# docker exec <container_name> <go command>
docker exec rest_go_1 go run docker/example.go

{
  "args": {},
  "headers": {
    "Accept-Encoding": "gzip",
    "Connection": "close",
    "Host": "httpbin.org",
    "User-Agent": "Go-http-client/1.1"
  },
  "origin": "86.180.177.202",
  "url": "https://httpbin.org/get"
}

# You can install libraries too, using the same command
# NOTE: Any libraries installed will be removed when the container is stopped.
docker exec rest_go_1 go get github.com/uniplaces/carbon

Your go files will be executed relative to the root of this directory. So in the example above, to execute the example.go file within the docker directory, we run docker exec rest_go_1 go run docker/example.go. If this file was in the root of this repository (next to README.exe, rest.go etc.), you would run docker exec rest_go_1 go run my_go_script.go

Quick Start

GET /your/api/{param}/call

package main

import "github.com/sendgrid/rest"
import "fmt"

func main() {
	const host = "https://api.example.com"
	param := "myparam"
	endpoint := "/your/api/" + param + "/call"
	baseURL := host + endpoint
	method := rest.Get
	request := rest.Request{
		Method:  method,
		BaseURL: baseURL,
	}
	response, err := rest.Send(request)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(err)
	} else {
		fmt.Println(response.StatusCode)
		fmt.Println(response.Body)
		fmt.Println(response.Headers)
	}
}

POST /your/api/{param}/call with headers, query parameters and a request body.

package main

import "github.com/sendgrid/rest"
import "fmt"

func main() {
	const host = "https://api.example.com"
	param := "myparam"
	endpoint := "/your/api/" + param + "/call"
	baseURL := host + endpoint
	Headers := make(map[string]string)
	key := os.Getenv("API_KEY")
	Headers["Authorization"] = "Bearer " + key
	Headers["X-Test"] = "Test"
	var Body = []byte(`{"some": 0, "awesome": 1, "data": 3}`)
	queryParams := make(map[string]string)
	queryParams["hello"] = "0"
	queryParams["world"] = "1"
	method := rest.Post
	request = rest.Request{
		Method:      method,
		BaseURL:     baseURL,
		Headers:     Headers,
		QueryParams: queryParams,
		Body:        Body,
	}
	response, err := rest.Send(request)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(err)
	} else {
		fmt.Println(response.StatusCode)
		fmt.Println(response.Body)
		fmt.Println(response.Headers)
	}
}
