Vercel Example

This example demonstrates how to deploy a Go Fiber application to Vercel.

Description

This project provides a starting point for deploying a Go Fiber application to Vercel. It includes the necessary configuration files and code to run a serverless application on Vercel.

Requirements

• Go 1.18 or higher
• Git
• Vercel CLI

Project Structure

• api/index.go: The main entry point for the serverless function.
• vercel.json: Configuration file for Vercel.
• go.mod: The Go module file.

Setup

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/gofiber/recipes.git
   cd recipes/vercel

2. Install the dependencies:

   go mod download

Configuration

Ensure the vercel.json file is present in the root directory to handle routing properly. This file rewrites all requests to the api/index.go handler.

{
  "rewrites": [
    { "source": "(.*)", "destination": "api/index.go" }
  ]
}

Deploy

1. Install the Vercel CLI:

   npm install -g vercel

2. Log in to Vercel:

   vercel login

3. Deploy the application:

   vercel

Follow the prompts to complete the deployment. Your application will be deployed to Vercel and a URL will be provided.

Example Usage

1. Open your browser and navigate to the provided Vercel URL.
2. You should see the JSON response with the URI and path.

Code Overview

api/index.go

The main Go file sets up the Fiber application, handles HTTP requests, and manages the routing.

package handler

import (
 "github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2/middleware/adaptor"
 "github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2"
 "net/http"
)

// Handler is the main entry point of the application. Think of it like the main() method
func Handler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
 // This is needed to set the proper request path in `*fiber.Ctx`
 r.RequestURI = r.URL.String()

 handler().ServeHTTP(w, r)
}

// building the fiber application
func handler() http.HandlerFunc {
 app := fiber.New()

 app.Get("/v1", func(ctx *fiber.Ctx) error {
  return ctx.JSON(fiber.Map{
   "version": "v1",
  })
 })

 app.Get("/v2", func(ctx *fiber.Ctx) error {
  return ctx.JSON(fiber.Map{
   "version": "v2",
  })
 })

 app.Get("/", func(ctx *fiber.Ctx) error {
  return ctx.JSON(fiber.Map{
   "uri":  ctx.Request().URI().String(),
   "path": ctx.Path(),
  })
 })

 return adaptor.FiberApp(app)
}

Conclusion

This example provides a basic setup for deploying a Go Fiber application to Vercel. It can be extended and customized further to fit the needs of more complex applications.
