# sux

An allocation-conscious, middleware-capable HTTP router for Go with support for static routes, parameters (`:id`), wildcards (`*path`), route groups, and configurable 404/405 handling.

## Installation

```bash
go get code.icod.de/dalu/sux
```

## Quick start

```go
package main

import (
	"net/http"

	"code.icod.de/dalu/sux"
)

func main() {
	r := sux.New()

	r.GET("/", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
		w.Write([]byte("hello"))
	})

	r.GET("/users/:id", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
		params := sux.ParamsFromContext(r)
		w.Write([]byte("user " + params.Get("id")))
	})

	http.ListenAndServe(":8080", r)
}
```

## Middleware

Middleware wraps handlers and can be applied globally or per route group.

```go
logger := func(next http.Handler) http.Handler {
	return http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
		// log request here
		next.ServeHTTP(w, r)
	})
}

r := sux.New()
r.Use(logger) // global

r.GET("/ping", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	w.Write([]byte("pong"))
})
```

## Route groups

Groups share a prefix and middleware.

```go
api := r.Group("/api", func(next http.Handler) http.Handler {
	return http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
		w.Header().Set("X-API-Version", "v1")
		next.ServeHTTP(w, r)
	})
})

api.GET("/users", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	w.Write([]byte("users"))
})
```

## Parameters and wildcards

```go
r.GET("/posts/:postId", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	p := sux.ParamsFromContext(r)
	w.Write([]byte(p.Get("postId")))
})

r.GET("/files/*path", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	p := sux.ParamsFromContext(r)
	w.Write([]byte("file: " + p.Get("path")))
})
```

## 404/405 handlers

```go
r.NotFound(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	http.Error(w, "custom 404", http.StatusNotFound)
})

r.MethodNotAllowed(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	http.Error(w, "custom 405", http.StatusMethodNotAllowed)
})

// Disable cross-method probing if you prefer 404s instead of 405 checks
r.EnableMethodNotAllowedCheck(false)
```

## Performance notes

- Internally pools parsed segments and parameter storage to reduce per-request allocations.
- Parameters are copied into the request context so they remain valid even after handlers return (important for async users of the context).
- For raw numbers, run `go test -bench . -benchmem`.

## Testing

```bash
go test ./...
```

Benchmarks:

```bash
go test -bench . -benchmem
