Show HN: FastAPI like controllers for Gin based Go apps

1 point

Motivation: I should be able to write following handler / controller similar to FastAPI by just defining SpecificRequest and SpecificResponse i.e. get request body type as argument and return response type along with error:

func myHandler(ctx context.Context, request SpecificRequest) (*SpecificResponse, error) {}

Exposing simple CRUD APIs is as simple as following

- Ensure your model implements crud.Model, you can embed pgdb.BaseModel to get default implementation for few methods.

- Define your request and response types and have them implement crud.Request and crud.Response interfaces.

- Add routes specifying your request, response and model types
