I'm trying to render a HTML that's already on a string instead of rendering a template on Gin framework.
The c.HTML
function on GET("/")
function expects a template to be rendered.
But on POST("/markdown")
I've rendered that HTML on a string already.
How can I return it on Gin?
package main
import (
"github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
"github.com/russross/blackfriday"
"log"
"net/http"
"os"
)
func main() {
router := gin.New()
router.Use(gin.Logger())
router.LoadHTMLGlob("templates/*.tmpl.html")
router.GET("/", func(c *gin.Context) {
c.HTML(http.StatusOK, "index.tmpl.html", nil)
})
router.POST("/markdown", func(c *gin.Context) {
body := c.PostForm("body")
log.Println(body)
markdown := blackfriday.MarkdownCommon([]byte(c.PostForm("body")))
log.Println(markdown)
// TODO: render markdown content on return
})
router.Run(":5000")
}
You can return the processed markdown byte array as a RAW Data
and set content-type as text/html; charset=utf-8
This is how it may look like
router.POST("/markdown", func(c *gin.Context) {
body, ok := c.GetPostForm("body")
if !ok {
c.JSON(http.StatusBadRequest, "badrequest")
return
}
markdown := blackfriday.MarkdownCommon([]byte(body))
c.Data(http.StatusOK, "text/html; charset=utf-8", markdown)
})
