Features

Optimized router

Radix-tree router; matching a route allocates no memory with default settings. Static paths match before parameters, parameters before wildcards.

Middleware

CORS, CSRF, rate limiting, gzip, recover and request logging ship in Echo’s middleware package. JWT, sessions and metrics are official add-ons.

Data binding

Bind JSON, XML or form bodies and path parameters into a struct with one call to c.Bind. The binding guide covers query parameters.

TLS and HTTP/2

StartConfig.StartTLS serves HTTPS from certificate files, or set StartConfig.TLSConfig and call Start. HTTP/2 works over TLS by default.

Extensible

Write middleware as a plain function. Replace the binder, validator, renderer, IP extractor or error handler.

Templates

Use echo.TemplateRenderer for html/template, or set e.Renderer to any engine that implements echo.Renderer.

Quickstart

Install

Create a module and add Echo.

go mod init myapp
go get github.com/labstack/echo/v5

Write

Create server.go with one route. The full example adds imports and main.

e.GET("/", func(c *echo.Context) error {
  return c.String(http.StatusOK, "Hello, World!\n")
})

Run
Fetch dependencies and start serving on port 1323.
```
go mod tidy
go run server.go
```

Official packages

echo-jwtJWT authentication middleware backed by golang-jwt.

echo-otelOpenTelemetry tracing and metrics middleware.

echo-prometheusPrometheus metrics middleware.
