Go - Api.Patch()
Register an API route and set a specific HTTP PATCH handler on that route.
This method is a convenient short version of Api.Route.Patch()
import (
  "fmt"
  "github.com/nitrictech/go-sdk/faas"
  "github.com/nitrictech/go-sdk/nitric"
)
func main() {
  api, err := nitric.NewApi("public")
  if err != nil {
    return
  }
  api.Patch("/hello", func(ctx *faas.HttpContext, next faas.HttpHandler) (*faas.HttpContext, error) {
    ctx.Response.Body = []byte("Hello World")
    return next(ctx)
  })
  if err := nitric.Run(); err != nil {
    fmt.Println(err)
  }
}
Parameters
- Name
 match- Required
 - Required
 - Type
 - string
 - Description
 The path matcher to use for the route. Matchers accept path parameters in the form of a colon prefixed string. The string provided will be used as that path parameter's name when calling middleware and handlers. See create a route with path params.
- Name
 middleware- Required
 - Required
 - Type
 - HttpMiddleware
 - Description
 The middleware function to use as the handler for HTTP requests. If you want to compose more than one middleware use
faas.ComposeHttpMiddleware.
- Name
 options- Optional
 - Optional
 - Type
 - ...MethodOption
 - Description
 Additional options for the route. See below.
Method options
- Name
 WithNoMethodSecurity()- Optional
 - Optional
 - Type
 - MethodOption
 - Description
 Sets a base path for all the routes in the API.
- Name
 WithMethodSecurity()- Optional
 - Optional
 - Type
 - MethodOption
 - Description
 Overrides a security rule from API defined JWT rules.

Examples
Register a handler for PATCH requests
api.Patch("/hello", func(ctx *faas.HttpContext, next faas.HttpHandler) (*faas.HttpContext, error) {
  ctx.Response.Body = []byte("Hello World")
  return next(ctx)
})
Create a route with path params
api.Patch("/hello/:name", func(ctx *faas.HttpContext, next faas.HttpHandler) (*faas.HttpContext, error) {
  name := ctx.Request.PathParams()["name"]
  ctx.Response.Body = []byte("Hello " + name)
  return next(ctx)
})
Create a route with no method security
import (
  "fmt"
  "github.com/nitrictech/go-sdk/nitric"
)
func main() {
  secureApi, err := nitric.NewApi(
    "secure",
    nitric.WithSecurityJwtRule("user", nitric.JwtSecurityRule{
      Issuer: "https://example-issuer.com",
      Audiences: []string{ "YOUR-AUDIENCES" },
    }),
    nitric.WithSecurity("user", []string{"products:read"}),
  )
  if err != nil {
    return
  }
  // Override the APIs security requirements with `WithNoMethodSecurity()`
  api.Patch("/public", func(ctx *faas.HttpContext, next faas.HttpHandler) (*faas.HttpContext, error) {
    // Handle request
    return next(ctx)
  }, nitric.WithNoMethodSecurity())
  if err := nitric.Run(); err != nil {
    fmt.Println(err)
  }
}
Chain functions as a single method handler
When multiple functions are provided they will be called as a chain. If one succeeds, it will move on to the next. This allows middleware to be composed into more complex handlers.
import (
  "fmt"
  "github.com/nitrictech/go-sdk/faas"
  "github.com/nitrictech/go-sdk/nitric"
)
func authMiddleware(ctx *faas.HttpContext, next faas.HttpHandler) (*faas.HttpContext, error) {
  // Perform auth validation
  return next(ctx)
}
func handleRequest(ctx *faas.HttpContext, next faas.HttpHandler) (*faas.HttpContext, error) {
  name := ctx.Request.PathParams()["name"]
  ctx.Response.Body = []byte("Hello " + name)
  return next(ctx)
}
func main() {
  api, err := nitric.NewApi("private")
  if err != nil {
    return
  }
  api.Patch("/hello/:name", faas.ComposeHttpMiddleware(authMiddleware, handleRequest))
  if err := nitric.Run(); err != nil {
    fmt.Println(err)
  }
}
Access the request body
The PATCH request body is accessible using ctx.Request.Data().
import (
  "fmt"
  "github.com/nitrictech/go-sdk/faas"
  "github.com/nitrictech/go-sdk/nitric"
)
func main() {
  api, err := nitric.NewApi("public")
  if err != nil {
    return
  }
  api.Patch("/hello", func(ctx *faas.HttpContext, next faas.HttpHandler) (*faas.HttpContext, error) {
    data := ctx.Request.Data()
    ctx.Response.Body = data
    return next(ctx)
  })
  if err := nitric.Run(); err != nil {
    fmt.Println(err)
  }
}
