Once the command has executed successfully, the web application will run on the default Beego port 8080.
Next, executing a GET request from the command line will give you a list of all the employees:
$ curl -X GET http://localhost:8080/employees[ { "id": 1, "firstName": "Foo", "lastName": "Bar" }, { "id": 2, "firstName": "Baz", "lastName": "Qux" }]
Let’s understand the program we have written:
- import “github.com/astaxie/beego": Here, we imported Beego.
- type FirstController struct { beego.Controller }: Here, we defined the FirstController struct type, which contains an anonymous struct field of type beego.Controller because of which FirstController automatically acquires all the methods of beego.Controller.
- func (this *FirstController) ...
