kun is a communication toolkit for Go services. It concentrates on handling the communications between Go services, to free developers to focus on the business logic.
Ultimately, kun may support the following communication types:
- In-process function call
- RPC (e.g., HTTP and gRPC)
- Asynchronous messaging
- Cron Jobs

-
Focus on the most valuable things
Service communication is important, but is less important than the service itself (i.e., your business value).
Furthermore, it should be effortless to change the communication types.
-
Write code in Go whenever possible
Prefer Go to other DSLs (e.g., OpenAPI, Protocol Buffers or AsyncAPI) for service definitions.
-
Maintainability counts
Embrace the spirit of the Clean Architecture for non-trivial applications.

Directive //kun:op
//kun:op <method> <pattern>
If a Go method needs to correspond to more than one URI (or HTTP method), you can specify multiple //kun:op
directives, which will produce multiple HTTP request operations.
Note that there are only three possible differences among these HTTP request operations:
- HTTP method
- URI
- Path parameters (defined in URI)
- method: The request method.
- pattern: The request URI.
- NOTE: All variables in pattern will automatically be bound to their corresponding method arguments (match by names in lower camel case), as path parameters, if these variables have not yet been specified explicitly by
//kun:param
.
- NOTE: All variables in pattern will automatically be bound to their corresponding method arguments (match by names in lower camel case), as path parameters, if these variables have not yet been specified explicitly by
-
Single operation:
type Service interface { //kun:op DELETE /users/{id} DeleteUser(ctx context.Context, id int) (err error) } // HTTP request: // $ http DELETE /users/101
-
Multiple operations:
type Service interface { //kun:op GET /messages/{messageID} //kun:op GET /users/{userID}/messages/{messageID} GetMessage(ctx context.Context, userID string, messageID string) (text string, err error) } // See a runnable example in examples/messaging. // HTTP request: // $ http GET /messages/123456 // $ http GET /users/me/messages/123456
Directive //kun:param
//kun:param <argName> [<parameter> [, <parameter2> [, ...]]]
If multiple method arguments are involved, you may need to apply multiple bindings. This can be done by adding a new //kun:param
directive, or by appending the binding to the end of the last //kun:param
directive in a semicolon-separated list.
- argName: The name of the method argument.
- Argument aggregation: By specifying multiple
<parameter>
s in a comma-separated list, multiple request parameters (each one is of basic type or repeated basic type) can be aggregated into one method argument (of any type). - Blank identifier: By specifying the argName with a double underscore prefix
__
, the corresponding request parameter(s) will not be mapped to any method argument. See here for more details.
- Argument aggregation: By specifying multiple
- parameter: The definition of a single request parameter, to which the method argument will be mapped.
- Syntax:
in=<in> name=<name> required=<required> type=<type> descr=<descr>
- Options:
- in:
- path: The request parameter is a path parameter.
- Optional: All variables in pattern will automatically be bound to their corresponding method arguments (match by names in lower camel case), as path parameters.
- query: The request parameter is a query parameter.
- To receive values from a multi-valued query parameter, the method argument can be defined as a slice of basic type.
- header: The request parameter is a header parameter.
- To receive values from a multi-valued header parameter, the method argument can be defined as a slice of basic type.
- cookie: The request parameter is a cookie parameter.
- Not supported yet.
- request: The request parameter is a property of Go's http.Request.
- This is a special case, and only one property
RemoteAddr
is available now. - Note that parameters located in request have no relationship with OAS.

-
Bind request parameters to simple arguments:
type Service interface { //kun:op PUT /users/{id} //kun:param name in=header name=X-User-Name UpdateUser(ctx context.Context, id int, name string) (err error) } // HTTP request: // $ http PUT /users/101 X-User-Name:tracey
-
Bind multiple request parameters to a struct according to tags:
type User struct { ID int `kun:"in=path"` // name defaults to snake case `id` Name string `kun:"in=query"` // name defaults to snake case `name` Age int `kun:"in=header name=X-User-Age"` } type Service interface { //kun:op PUT /users/{id} //kun:param user UpdateUser(ctx context.Context, user User) (err error) } // HTTP request: // $ http PUT /users/101?name=tracey X-User-Age:1
-
Bind multiple query parameters to a struct with no tags:
type User struct { Name string // equivalent to `kun:"in=query name=name"` Age int // equivalent to `kun:"in=query name=age"` Hobbies []string // equivalent to `kun:"in=query name=hobbies"` } type Service interface { //kun:op POST /users //kun:param user CreateUser(ctx context.Context, user User) (err error) } // HTTP request: // $ http POST /users?name=tracey&age=1&hobbies=music&hobbies=sport
