PANIC Value not found for type *web.Context

[xyproto]

Hi,

The "martini" branch in one of my repositories has an example application that panics when visited, that did not panic with hoisie/web:

https://github.com/xyproto/browserspeak/tree/martini

One way of trying it out

go get github.com/martini-contrib/web
go get github.com/go-martini/martini
mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/xyproto
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/xyproto
git clone https://github.com/xyproto/browserspeak.git -b martini
cd browserspeak/example
go build
PORT=8080 ./example

Visiting http://localhost:8080/test.svg works, but http://localhost:8080/ gives the following backtrace:

PANIC

I can not see any references to my own code, so I'm having a hard time pinpointing where this error lies. Any help is appreciated.

Best regards,

Hi @xyproto ! I think you may have overlooked a couple things with your code.

Here's how you have to go about using *web.Context, which in your case didn't have value because you didn't use it! :)

See example below:

    func svgGenerator(ctx *web.Context){
        page := svgPage()
        ctx.WriteString(page.String())
    }

    func defaultHandler(ctx *web.Context){
        ctx.WriteString("TODO: Implement me!")
    }

    func main() {
        fmt.Println("BrowserSpeak Version:", browserspeak.Version)

        m := martini.Classic()
        m.Use(web.ContextWithCookieSecret(""))

        // Connect /test.svg with svgGenerator
        m.Get("/test", svgGenerator)

        //TODO: implement a root handler
        m.Get("/", defaultHandler)

        m.Run()
    }

Also, make sure to implement a root handler! It doesn't know how to handle / on its own...

Hope this helps!

Thank you! I will look into this.

cannot get req.URL.Query() 's any value from ctx.Params ? I mean martini.Params.
