HttpHelpers
HttpHelpers is a set of helper methods that can be used in your http handlers to perform common tasks such as getting the client device, fetching client-side assets, translating messages, and more. It is accessible using the Http.Helpers method:
It can also be accessed in the views, assets and vue components using <% .Helpers %>. See template parsing for more details.
Methods
Below are the methods available in the HttpHelpers:
AssetPath
Returns the URI path of a static file in resources/assets directory from your plugin.
For example to get the uri path of the file in resources/assets/css/style.css:
uri := api.Http().Helpers().AssetPath("css/style.css")
fmt.Println(uri) // /plugins/your-plugin-id/0.0.1/assets/css/style.css
AssetWithHelpersPath
Similar to AssetPath, but the assets are parsed with access to the HttpHelpers instance. For example, if you want to have a script file that points to a certain route in your plugin, you can do:
var url = '<% .Helpers.VueRoutePath "some.routename" %>';
console.log(url);
jsPath := api.Http().Helpers().AssetWithHelpersPath("js/script.js")
fmt.Println(jsPath) // /plugins/your-plugin-id/0.0.1/assets/js/script.js
