Please take a look at my two files main.go and index.html. I am starting with the Goji web microframework. Find Snippets at the Goji web framework.
In my example I can see the HTML form webpage index.html at @Localhost8000 and I can type in the input field for example "test" and press the submit button. In the terminal output I can see that it was send: "Started GET "/?name=test" from 127.0.0.1:51580"
How can I get a HTML GET form request to golang in a variable? I think it will be going with goji.Get. I tried several ways but I get it not to run. I am happy if somebody can give me a hint or a snippet. I still learning golang.
File main.go:
package main
import (
"net/http"
"github.com/zenazn/goji"
)
func main() {
staticFilesLocation := "public"
goji.Handle("/", http.FileServer(http.Dir(staticFilesLocation)))
goji.Serve()
}
File index.html:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<!-- Simple form which will send a GET request -->
<form action="">
<label for="GET-name">Name:</label>
<input id="GET-name" type="text" name="name">
<input type="submit" value="sendGET">
</form>
</body>
</html>
File loacations:
src/formgoji/main.go
src/formgoji/public/index.html
Output - start in terminal window:
$ go run main.go

A similiar question was here at stackoverflow: parse-input-from-html-form-in-golang This example I couldn't run.I think this has to do where your files are located and how is your @localhost defined. This is in this example missing.
