If I have a mux.Router, how do I set it to be a "subrouter"? All examples I can find creates a new router by calling Route.Subrouter() and then setting Handlers on it, but I already have a router!
// does not know about "/api/v1/"
v1_router := mux.NewRouter()
subrouter.HandleFuc("/route1/", ...)
subrouter.HandleFuc("/route2/", ...)
// does not now about route1, route2
r := mux.NewRouter()
r.PathPrefix("/api/v1/").???(v1_router)
I hope I'm making sense...
I feel the same way, and have to live with the same "workaround". I would like to set the subrouter to an existing router. Like:
r.PathPrefix("/api").SetSubrouter(api.GetRouter()) //won't work
That would let my api feel more autonomous / loosely coupled. But getting a subrouter is all we have from gorilla.
s := r.PathPrefix("/api").Subrouter()
api.SetRoutes(s)
You can do it like this:
v1 package file:
func Handlers(subrouter *mux.Router) {
//base handler, i.e. /v1
r.StrictSlash(true)
subrouter.HandleFuc("/route1/", ...)
subrouter.HandleFuc("/route2/", ...)
}
main file:
r := mux.NewRouter()
package.Handlers(r.PathPrefix("/api/v1").Subrouter())
