Use As Library

This example shows how a subset of babyapi features can be used as a library rather than a full framework. The more interesting features that can be used this way are:

• Use babyapi.Handler with stdlib HTTP server to simplify response rendering
• Use babyapi.ReadRequestBodyAndDo as an HTTP handler that automatically reads the request body and responds based on the generic parameter
• Use babyapi/html package to simplify responding with HTML templates
• Use the generic babyapi.MakeRequest function to make a request to the server

Run the application:

go run main.go

Test the POST handler with curl:

curl localhost:8080/create-data -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"Data": {"a":"b"}}'

Visit the other endpoints in the browser:

• http://localhost:8080/hello?name=YourName
• http://localhost:8080/data
