Installation

Prerequisites

• Go 1.21 or higher

Create a New Project

mkdir myapi && cd myapi
go mod init myapi

Install Okapi

go get github.com/jkaninda/okapi@latest

That’s it! You’re ready to start building your API with Okapi.

Verify Installation

Create a simple main.go file to verify the installation:

package main

import (
    "github.com/jkaninda/okapi"
)

func main() {
    o := okapi.Default()
    
    o.Get("/", func(c *okapi.Context) error {
        return c.OK(okapi.M{"message": "Hello from Okapi!"})
    })
    
    if err := o.Start(); err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
}

Run the server:

go run main.go
