mux

Caddy plugin for routing requests to Go http handlers

The actual development of this plugin is in vendor dir of another project.

Deployment

Caddy requires modifying its source code to recognize new plugin. Fortunately it's a single line change.

Add "mux" to the end of var "directives" array in https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/blob/master/caddyhttp/httpserver/plugin.go

Also declare you want to use the plugin in Caddyfile:

localhost:2015
mux

Usage Example

Embed Caddy in a project and route requests to be handled by Go functions. It uses Go http ServeMux below but may be replaced by gorilla mux.

package main

import (
    "net/http"

    "github.com/caddyserver/caddy/caddy/caddymain"
    "github.com/seckiss/mux"
)

func main() {
    mux.HandleFunc("/test", TestHandler)
    caddymain.Run()
}

func TestHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    w.Header().Set("Content-Type", "text/plain")
    w.Write([]byte("test handler success"))
}
