Muxing Twirp services |
Muxing Twirp with other HTTP services |
If you want run your server next to other http.Handlers, you'll need to use a
mux. The generated code includes a path prefix that you can use for routing
Twirp requests correctly. It's an exported string const, always as
<ServiceName>PathPrefix, and it is the prefix for all Twirp requests.
For example, you could use it with http.ServeMux like this:
server := &haberdasherserver.Server{}
twirpHandler := haberdasher.NewHaberdasherServer(server, nil)
mux := http.NewServeMux()
mux.Handle(twirpHandler.PathPrefix(), twirpHandler)
mux.Handle("/some/other/path", someOtherHandler)
http.ListenAndServe(":8080", mux)You can also serve your Handler on many third-party muxes which accept
http.Handlers. For example, on a goji.Mux:
server := &haberdasherserver.Server{} // implements Haberdasher interface
twirpHandler := haberdasher.NewHaberdasherServer(server, nil)
mux := goji.NewMux()
mux.Handle(pat.Post(twirpHandler.PathPrefix()+"*"), twirpHandler)
// mux.Handle other things like health checks ...
http.ListenAndServe("localhost:8000", mux)
