Stream Request Body

Github StackBlitz

This project demonstrates how to handle streaming request bodies in a Go application using the Fiber framework.

Prerequisites​

Ensure you have the following installed:

Setup​

  1. Clone the repository:

    git clone https://github.com/gofiber/recipes.git
    cd recipes/stream-request-body

  2. Install dependencies:

    go get

Running the Application​

  1. Start the application: 
    go run main.go

Example​

Here is an example of how to handle a streaming request body in Go using Fiber:

package main

import (
    "github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2"
    "io"
    "log"
)

func main() {
    app := fiber.New()

    app.Post("/upload", func(c *fiber.Ctx) error {
        // Open a file to write the streamed data
        file, err := os.Create("uploaded_file")
        if err != nil {
            return err
        }
        defer file.Close()

        // Stream the request body to the file
        _, err = io.Copy(file, c.BodyStream())
        if err != nil {
            return err
        }

        return c.SendString("File uploaded successfully")
    })

    log.Fatal(app.Listen(":3000"))
}
