🚀 Installation
The only requirement is the Go Programming Language, at least version 1.8
$ go get -u github.com/kataras/iris
iris takes advantage of the vendor directory feature. You get truly reproducible builds, as this method guards against upstream renames and deletes.
// file: main.go
package main
import (
"github.com/kataras/iris"
"github.com/kataras/iris/context"
)
func main() {
app := iris.New()
// Load all templates from the "./templates" folder
// where extension is ".html" and parse them
// using the standard `html/template` package.
app.RegisterView(iris.HTML("./templates", ".html"))
// Method: GET
// Resource: http://localhost:8080
app.Get("/", func(ctx context.Context) {
// Bind: {{.message}} with "Hello world!"
ctx.ViewData("message", "Hello world!")
// Render template file: ./templates/hello.html
ctx.View("hello.html")
})
// Start the server using a network address and block.
app.Run(iris.Addr(":8080"))
}
<!-- file: ./templates/hello.html -->
<html>
<head>
<title>Hello Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>{{.message}}</h1>
</body>
</html>
$ go run main.go
> Now listening on: http://localhost:8080
> Application started. Press CTRL+C to shut down.
Hello World with Go 1.9
If you've installed Go 1.9 then you can omit the github.com/kataras/iris/context
package from the imports statement.
// +build go1.9
package main
import "github.com/kataras/iris"
func main() {
app := iris.New()
app.RegisterView(iris.HTML("./templates", ".html"))
app.Get("/", func(ctx iris.Context) {
ctx.ViewData("message", "Hello world!")
ctx.View("hello.html")
})
app.Run(iris.Addr(":8080"))
}
We expect Go version 1.9 to be released in August, however you can install Go 1.9 beta today.
Installing Go 1.9beta2
- Go to https://golang.org/dl/#go1.9beta2
- Download a compatible, with your OS, archieve, i.e
go1.9beta2.windows-amd64.zip
- Unzip the contents of
go1.9beta2.windows-amd64.zip/go
folder to your $GOROOT, i.eC:\Go
- Open a terminal and execute
go version
, it should output the go1.9beta2 version, i.e:
C:\Users\hiveminded>go version
go version go1.9beta2 windows/amd64
Why another new web framework?
iris is easy, it has a familiar API while in the same has far more features than Gin or Martini.
You own your code —it will never generate (unfamiliar) code for you, like Beego, Revel and Buffalo do.
It's not just-another-router but its overall performance is equivalent with something like httprouter.
Unlike fasthttp, iris provides full HTTP/2 support for free.
Compared to the rest open source projects, this one is very active and you get answers almost immediately.
👥 Community
The most useful community repository for iris developers is the iris-contrib/middleware which contains some HTTP handlers that can help you finish a lot of your tasks even easier.
$ go get -u github.com/iris-contrib/middleware/...
Feel free to put your own middleware there!
Join the welcoming community of fellow iris developers in rocket.chat.
📖 Learn
The awesome iris community is always adding new examples, _examples is a great place to get started!
Read the godocs for a better understanding.
🤔 Philosophy
The iris philosophy is to provide robust tooling for HTTP, making it a great solution for single page applications, web sites, hybrids, or public HTTP APIs. Keep note that, today, iris is faster than apache+nginx itself.
iris does not force you to use any specific ORM. With support for the most popular template engines, websocket server and a fast sessions manager you can quickly craft your perfect application.

📌 Version
Current: 8.0.3
Each new release is pushed to the master. It stays there until the next version. When a next version is released then the previous version goes to its own branch with gopkg.in
as its import path (and its own vendor folder), in order to keep it working "for-ever".
Changelog of the current version can be found at the HISTORY file.
Should I upgrade my iris?
Developers are not forced to use the latest iris version, they can use any version in production, they can update at any time they want.
Testers should upgrade immediately, if you're willing to use iris in production you can wait a little more longer, transaction should be as safe as possible.
Where can I find older versions?
Previous versions can be found at releases page.
