Go on Airplanes API Route
package api import ( "goonairplanes/core" "net/http" "time" ) func Handler(ctx *core.APIContext) { response := map[string]interface{}{ "message": "Hello from Go on Airplanes API route!", "timestamp": time.Now().Format(time.RFC3339), "method": ctx.Request.Method, "path": ctx.Request.URL.Path, "params": ctx.Params, "success": true, } ctx.Success(response, http.StatusOK) }
Next.js API Route
import { NextRequest, NextResponse } from 'next/server'; type APIContext = { method: string; path: string; params: Record; timestamp: string; request: NextRequest; }; type SuccessResponse = { message: string; timestamp: string; method: string; path: string; params: Record ; success: true; }; function createContext(req: NextRequest): APIContext { return { method: req.method, path: req.nextUrl.pathname, params: Object.fromEntries(req.nextUrl.searchParams.entries()), timestamp: new Date().toISOString(), request: req, }; } function buildSuccessResponse(ctx: APIContext): SuccessResponse { return { message: 'Hello from TypeScript on Next.js!', timestamp: ctx.timestamp, method: ctx.method, path: ctx.path, params: ctx.params, success: true, }; } export async function GET(req: NextRequest) { const ctx = createContext(req); const response = buildSuccessResponse(ctx); return NextResponse.json(response, { status: 200 }); }
"After years of programming with NextJS and struggling with hydration errors — or performing infernal rituals just to get a CRUD working — I decided to switch to Golang and create GoA: what NextJS should’ve always been."
