Gadgeto!

This is a fork of loopfz/gadgeto which contain non-merged pull requests on this repository as well as enhancements.

I would like to thank the original author for his amazing library. Tonic is really a game changer for me to write HTTP servers in Golang.

List of changed compared to the original repository (you can also use git log to list changes, merged PR from the original repository contains a link to them):

• Allow to retrieve bindHook errors: the original error returned by the bind hooks are now accessible.
• Allows the SetRenderHook to override the mediaType
• fix: make sure a validator exists to avoid panic
• Add support for more content-type
• Dependencies bump
• Allow configuring the bind/render hooks and media type per route

Gadgeto! is a collection of tools that aim to facilitate the development of REST APIs in Go. These tools are based on and enrich popular open-source solutions, to provide higher-level functionalities.

Components: - tonic: Based on the REST framework Gin (https://github.com/gin-gonic/gin), tonic lets you write simpler handler functions, and handles repetitive tasks for you (parameter binding, error handling).

- zesty: Based on Gorp (https://github.com/go-gorp/gorp), zesty abstracts
            DB specifics for easy (nested) transaction management.

- iffy: An HTTP testing library for functional/unit tests,
            iffy does all the hard work (http, marshaling, templating...) and
            lets you describe http calls as one-liners, chaining them in complex scenarios.

- amock: An HTTP mocking library. amock lets you easily write mock objects to inject
            into http clients.
            It does not require any go-generate tricks, and lets you inject mocks
            into existing libraries that may not be properly abstracted through interfaces.
