# Sux

Static route http router that considers the request method with support for parameters, middleware, and route groups.

Useful for serving server-side rendered content.

## Features

- **High Performance**: Optimized trie-based routing with minimal allocations
- **URL Parameters**: Support for `:param` and `*wildcard` parameters
- **Middleware**: Global and route-specific middleware support
- **Route Groups**: Group routes with shared prefixes and middleware
- **Thread-Safe**: No global state - multiple router instances supported
- **Method Not Allowed**: Proper 405 responses when path exists but method doesn't
- **Custom Handlers**: Custom 404 and 405 handlers

## How

### Basic Usage

```go
package main

import (
	"code.icod.de/dalu/sux"
	"io"
	"net/http"
)

func main() {
	r := sux.New()
	r.GET("/", Hello)
	r.GET("/simple", Simple)
	http.ListenAndServe(":8080", r)
}

func Hello(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	io.WriteString(w, "hello")
}

func Simple(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	name := r.URL.Query().Get("name")
	io.WriteString(w, "hello "+name)
}
```

### URL Parameters

```go
r := sux.New()

// Named parameters
r.GET("/users/:id", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	params := sux.ParamsFromContext(r)
	id := params["id"]
	io.WriteString(w, "User ID: "+id)
})

// Wildcard parameters (captures rest of path)
r.GET("/files/*path", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	params := sux.ParamsFromContext(r)
	path := params["path"]
	io.WriteString(w, "File path: "+path)
})

// Multiple parameters
r.GET("/users/:userId/posts/:postId", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	params := sux.ParamsFromContext(r)
	userId := params["userId"]
	postId := params["postId"]
	io.WriteString(w, "User "+userId+", Post "+postId)
})
```

### Middleware

```go
r := sux.New()

// Global middleware
r.Use(loggingMiddleware, authMiddleware)

// Route-specific middleware
r.GET("/admin", adminOnlyMiddleware(adminHandler))

func loggingMiddleware(next http.Handler) http.Handler {
	return http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
		log.Printf("%s %s", r.Method, r.URL.Path)
		next.ServeHTTP(w, r)
	})
}

func authMiddleware(next http.Handler) http.Handler {
	return http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
		// Check authentication
		if !isAuthenticated(r) {
			http.Error(w, "Unauthorized", http.StatusUnauthorized)
			return
		}
		next.ServeHTTP(w, r)
	})
}
```

### Route Groups

```go
r := sux.New()

// API group with middleware
api := r.Group("/api", apiVersionMiddleware, corsMiddleware)

// Group routes automatically get the prefix and middleware
api.GET("/users", listUsers)
api.POST("/users", createUser)
api.GET("/users/:id", getUser)

// Nested groups
v1 := api.Group("/v1")
v1.GET("/posts", listPostsV1)

v2 := api.Group("/v2")
v2.GET("/posts", listPostsV2)
```

### Custom Handlers

```go
r := sux.New()

// Custom 404 handler
r.NotFound(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	w.WriteHeader(http.StatusNotFound)
	w.Write([]byte("Custom 404 - Page not found"))
})

// Custom 405 handler
r.MethodNotAllowed(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	w.WriteHeader(http.StatusMethodNotAllowed)
	w.Write([]byte("Custom 405 - Method not allowed"))
})
```

### Multiple Router Instances

```go
// Each router is independent and thread-safe
mainRouter := sux.New()
mainRouter.GET("/", homeHandler)

apiRouter := sux.New()
apiRouter.GET("/users", usersHandler)

// Use different routers for different purposes
go http.ListenAndServe(":8080", mainRouter)
go http.ListenAndServe(":8081", apiRouter)
```

## Performance

The router is optimized for high performance with hash map-based O(1) child lookups:

```

**Performance Improvements:**
- Static routes: 9.3% faster with hash map optimization
- Multiple parameters: 12.2% faster
- Large router scenarios: 60.7% faster

- `DELETE(path string, handler http.HandlerFunc) *Router`
- `OPTIONS(path string, handler http.HandlerFunc) *Router`
- `HEAD(path string, handler http.HandlerFunc) *Router`

### Middleware

- `Use(middleware ...MiddlewareFunc)` - Add global middleware
- `Group(prefix string, middleware ...MiddlewareFunc) *Router` - Create route group

### Custom Handlers

- `NotFound(handler http.HandlerFunc)` - Set custom 404 handler
- `MethodNotAllowed(handler http.HandlerFunc)` - Set custom 405 handler

### Parameter Extraction

- `ParamsFromContext(r *http.Request) Params` - Extract route parameters from request

## Parameter Types

### Named Parameters (`:param`)

- Matches a single path segment
- Extracted by name from the context
- Example: `/users/:id` matches `/users/123`

### Wildcard Parameters (`*param`)

- Matches one or more path segments
- Captures the rest of the path
- Example: `/files/*path` matches `/files/docs/readme.txt`

## Thread Safety

The router is completely thread-safe:

- No global state
- Multiple router instances can be used concurrently
- Safe for concurrent use from multiple goroutines
