Data Validation API

Data validation API example to validate POST json request against Json Schema with go lang.

Packages

• Gin Framework
• xeipuuv/gojsonschema
• logrus

How to run

1) If you have golang installed:

• Clone the repo
• go get -v && go build -o api
• ./api --port 8080

Make a valid request:

curl -X POST \
  http://localhost:8080/api/person \
  -H 'cache-control: no-cache' \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -d '{
	"firstName": "Go",
	"lastName": "lang"
}'

response would be:

{
    "success": true,
    "errors": {}
}

Invalid request:

curl -X POST \
  http://localhost:8080/api/person \
  -H 'cache-control: no-cache' \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -d '{
	"noName": "Go",
	"lastName": "lang"
}'

response:

{
    "success": false,
    "errors": {
        "firstName": "firstName is required"
    }
}

2) With Docker (coming soon ...)
