v5.1.0

What's Changed

• middleware: add Discard method to WrapResponseWriter by @patrislav in #926
  • Adds Discard() method to the middleware.WrapResponseWriter interface. This is technically an API breaking change. However after some discussion at #926 (comment), we decided to move forward, and release as minor version, as we don't expect anyone to rely on this interface / implement it externally.

v5.0.12

Hi everyone, thank you to all contributors + reviewers.

We present chi v5.0.12 which includes support for the new Go 1.22 mux routing features :)

Specifically, this release adds support for:

• Routing methods r.Handle("GET /users/{userID}", handler) and similarly in r.HandlerFunc with a very simple addition to chi, thank you @Spartan09 and @angelofallars for their work on the PRs to add support (#897, #901)
• Access url path parameters via request.PathValue("xyz") and request.PathValue("*") on *http.Request when using the chi router in Go 1.22+. Of course you may also use chi.URLParam(r, "xyz") and chi.URLParam(r, "*") – these are all equivalent now in Go 1.22+. Thank you @angelofallars for the PR (#901)
• For full list of changes, see v5.0.11...v5.0.12
