Go on Fire

Build Status Coverage Status GoDoc Release Go Report Card

An idiomatic micro-framework for building Ember.js compatible APIs with Go.

Go on Fire is built on top of the wonderful built-in http package, implements the JSON API specification through the dedicated jsonapi library, uses the very stable mgo driver for persisting resources with MongoDB and leverages the dedicated oauth2 library to provide out of the box support for OAuth2 authentication using JWT tokens.

The deliberate and tight integration of these components provides a very simple and extensible set of abstractions for rapidly building backend services for websites that use Ember.js as their frontend framework. Of course it can also be used in conjunction with any other single page application framework or as a backend for native mobile applications.

To quickly get started with building an API with Go on Fire follow the quickstart guide, read the detailed sections in this documentation and refer to the package documentation for more detailed information on the used types and methods.

Index

Constants

View Source
const NoDefault noDefault = iota

NoDefault marks the specified field to have no default that needs to be enforced while executing the ProtectedFieldsValidator.

View Source
const NoZero noZero = iota

NoZero indicates that the zero value check should be skipped.

Variables

View Source
var ErrAccessDenied = Safe(errors.New("access denied"))

ErrAccessDenied can be returned by an authorizer to deny access. The error is already wrapped using Safe.

Functions

func Compose added in v0.2.0

func Compose(chain ...interface{}) http.Handler

Compose is a short-hand for chaining the specified middleware and handler together.

func DataSize added in v0.11.1

func DataSize(str string) uint64

DataSize parses human readable data sizes (e.g. 4K, 20M or 5G) and returns the amount of bytes they represent.

func IsSafe added in v0.13.0

func IsSafe(err error) bool

IsSafe can be used to check if an error has been wrapped using Safe.

func RootTracer added in v0.12.2

func RootTracer() func(http.Handler) http.Handler

RootTracer is a middleware that can be used to create root trace span for an incoming request.

func Safe added in v0.13.0

func Safe(err error) error

Safe wraps an error and marks it as safe. Wrapped errors are safe to be presented to the client if appropriate.

Types

type Action added in v0.2.0

type Action struct {
	// The allowed methods for this action.
	Methods []string

	// The callback for this action.
	Callback *Callback

	// BodyLimit defines the maximum allowed size of the request body. It
	// defaults to 8M if set to zero. The DataSize helper can be used to set
	// the value.
	BodyLimit uint64
}

An Action defines a collection or resource action.

type Callback added in v0.2.0

type Callback struct {
	// The matcher that decides whether the callback should be run.
	Matcher Matcher

	// The handler handler that gets executed with the context.
	//
	// If returned errors are marked with Safe() they will be included in the
	// returned JSON-API error.
	Handler Handler
}

A Callback is called during the request processing flow of a controller.

Note: If the callback returns an error wrapped using Fatal() the API returns an InternalServerError status and the error will be logged. All other errors are serialized to an error object and returned.

func BasicAuthorizer added in v0.8.1

func BasicAuthorizer(credentials map[string]string) *Callback

BasicAuthorizer authorizes requests based on a simple credentials list.

func C added in v0.2.5

func C(name string, m Matcher, h Handler) *Callback

C is a short-hand function to construct a callback. It will also add tracing code around the execution of the callback.

func DependentResourcesValidator added in v0.2.0

func DependentResourcesValidator(resources map[string]string) *Callback

DependentResourcesValidator counts documents in the supplied collections and returns an error if some get found. This callback is meant to protect resources from breaking relations when requested to be deleted.

Dependent resources are defined by passing pairs of collections and database fields that hold the current models id:

DependentResourcesValidator(map[string]string{
	C(&Post{}): F(&Post{}, "Author"),
	C(&Comment{}): F(&Comment{}, "Author"),
})

func MatchingReferencesValidator added in v0.2.0

func MatchingReferencesValidator(collection, reference string, matcher map[string]string) *Callback

MatchingReferencesValidator compares the model with one related model or all related models and checks if the specified references are exactly shared.

The target model is defined by passing its collection and the referencing field on the current model. The matcher is defined by passing pairs of database fields on the target and current model:

MatchingReferencesValidator(C(&Blog{}), F(&Post{}, "Blog"), map[string]string{
	F(&Blog{}, "Owner"): F(&Post{}, "Owner"),
})

To-many, optional to-many and has-many relationships are supported both for the initial reference and in the matchers.

func ModelValidator added in v0.2.0

func ModelValidator() *Callback

ModelValidator performs a validation of the model using the Validate function.

func ProtectedFieldsValidator added in v0.12.0

func ProtectedFieldsValidator(fields map[string]interface{}) *Callback

ProtectedFieldsValidator compares protected attributes against their default (during Create) or stored value (during Update) and returns an error if they have been changed.

Attributes are defined by passing pairs of fields and default values:

ProtectedFieldsValidator(map[string]interface{}{
	F(&Post{}, "Title"): NoDefault, // can only be set during Create
	F(&Post{}, "Link"):  "",        // is fixed and cannot be changed
})

The special NoDefault value can be provided to skip the default enforcement on Create.

func RelationshipValidator added in v0.8.4

func RelationshipValidator(model coal.Model, catalog *coal.Catalog, excludedFields ...string) *Callback

RelationshipValidator makes sure all relationships of a model are correct and in place. It does so by combining a DependentResourcesValidator and a VerifyReferencesValidator based on the specified model and catalog.

func UniqueFieldValidator added in v0.13.0

func UniqueFieldValidator(field string, zero interface{}, filters ...string) *Callback

UniqueFieldValidator ensures that the specified field of the Model will remain unique among the specified filters. If the value matches the provided zero value the check is skipped.

UniqueFieldValidator(F(&Blog{}, "Name"), "", F(&Blog{}, "Creator"))

The special NoZero value can be provided to skip the zero check.

func VerifyReferencesValidator added in v0.2.0

func VerifyReferencesValidator(references map[string]string) *Callback

VerifyReferencesValidator makes sure all references in the document are existing by counting the references on the related collections.

References are defined by passing pairs of database fields and collections of models whose ids might be referenced on the current model:

VerifyReferencesValidator(map[string]string{
	F(&Comment{}, "Post"): C(&Post{}),
	F(&Comment{}, "Author"): C(&User{}),
})

The callbacks supports to-one, optional to-one and to-many relationships.

type Context added in v0.2.0

type Context struct {
	// The current operation in process (read only).
	Operation Operation

	// The query that will be used during an List, Find, Update, Delete or
	// ResourceAction operation to select a list of models or a specific model.
	//
	// On Find, Update and Delete operations, the "_id" key is preset to the
	// resource id, while on forwarded List operations a relationship filter is
	// preset.
	Selector bson.M

	// The query that will be used during an List, Find, Update, Delete or
	// ResourceAction operation to further filter the selection of a list of
	// models or a specific model.
	//

	Filter bson.M

	// The Model that will be saved during Create, updated during Update or
	// deleted during Delete.
	Model coal.Model

	// The sorting that will be used during List.
	Sorting []string

	// The filtered fields if at least one is available.
	Fields []string

	// The document that will be written to the client during List, Find, Create
	// and partially Update. The JSON API endpoints which modify a resources
	// relationships do only respond with a header as no other information should
	// be changed.
	//
	// Note: The document will be set before notifiers are run.
	Response *jsonapi.Document

	// The store that is used to retrieve and persist the model (read only).
	Store *coal.SubStore

	// The underlying JSON-API request (read only).
	JSONAPIRequest *jsonapi.Request

	// The underlying HTTP request (read only).
	//
	// Note: The path is not updated when a controller forwards a request to
	// another controller.
	HTTPRequest *http.Request

	// The underlying HTTP response writer. The response writer should only be
	// used during collection or resource actions to write a response or to set
	// custom headers.

	// The Controller that is managing the request (read only).
	Controller *Controller

	// The Group that received the request (read only).
	Group *Group

	Tracer *Tracer
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

A Context provides useful contextual information.

func (*Context) Original added in v0.2.0

func (c *Context) Original() (coal.Model, error)

Original will return the stored version of the model. This method is intended to be used to calculate the changed fields during an Update operation. Any returned error is already marked as fatal. This function will cache and reuse loaded models between multiple callbacks.

Note: The method will panic if being used during any other operation than Update.

func (*Context) Query added in v0.2.0

	// indexed should be made sortable.
	Sorters []string

	// Authorizers authorize the requested operation on the requested resource
	// and are run before any models are loaded from the DB. Returned errors
	// will cause the abortion of the request with an unauthorized status.
	//
	// The callbacks are expected to return an error if the requester should be
	// informed about him being unauthorized to access the resource or modify the
	// context's filter query in such a way that only accessible resources are
	// returned. The later improves privacy as a protected resource would just
	// appear as being not found.
	Authorizers []*Callback

	// Validators are run to validate Create, Update and Delete operations
	// after the models are loaded and the changed attributes have been assigned
	// during an Update. Returned errors will cause the abortion of the request
	// with a bad request status.
	//
	// The callbacks are expected to validate the model being created, updated or
	// deleted and return errors if the presented attributes or relationships
	// are invalid or do not comply with the stated requirements. The preceding
	// authorization checks should be repeated and now also include the model's
	// attributes and relationships.
	Validators []*Callback

	// Notifiers are run before the final response is written to the client
	// and provide a chance to modify the response and notify other systems
	// about the applied changes. Returned errors will cause the abortion of the
	// request with an Internal Server Error status.
	Notifiers []*Callback

	// NoList can be set to true if the resource is only listed through
	// relationships from other resources. This is useful for resources like
	// comments that should never be listed alone.
	NoList bool

	// ListLimit can be set to a value higher than 1 to enforce paginated
	// responses and restrain the page size to be within one and the limit.
	//
	// Note: Fire uses the "page[number]" and "page[size]" query parameters for
	// pagination.
	ListLimit uint64

	// DocumentLimit defines the maximum allowed size of an incoming document.
	// It defaults to 8M if set to zero. The DataSize helper can be used to
	// set the value.
	DocumentLimit uint64

	// CollectionActions and ResourceActions are custom actions that are run
	// on the collection (e.g. "posts/delete-cache") or resource (e.g.
	// "posts/1/recover-password"). The request context is forwarded to
	// the specified callback after running the authorizers. No validators and
	// notifiers are run for the request.
	CollectionActions map[string]*Action
	ResourceActions   map[string]*Action
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
