Functions

func ParseForm

func ParseForm(req *http.Request, maxMemory int64) (err error)

ParseForm is similar to the standard request.ParseForm() but it handles urlencoded, multipart and JSON. For nested JSON objects ParseForm uses dots to join keys.

func ReadAll

func ReadAll(body io.Reader, maxBytes int64) ([]byte, error)

ReadAll read the whole body of a request but fails if it exceeds the given limit. If no limit is provided, DefaultFormMaxMemory will be used.

func UnmarshalFormJSON

func UnmarshalFormJSON(b []byte) (url.Values, error)

UnmarshalFormJSON attempts to convert a JSON document into a url.Values map.
