Quick Start

GoAdmin makes it easy to use in various web frameworks through various adapters. Currently supported web frameworks are:

You can choose the framework which your own project is using. If there is no framework you like, please feel free to give us an issue or pr!

Let's take the gin framework for example to demonstrate the build process.

main.go

Firstly, create a new main.go file in your project folder with the following contents:

package main

import (
    _ "github.com/GoAdminGroup/go-admin/adapter/gin" // Import the adapter, it must be imported. If it is not imported, you need to define it yourself.
    _ "github.com/GoAdminGroup/themes/adminlte" // Import the theme
    _ "github.com/GoAdminGroup/go-admin/modules/db/drivers/mysql" // Import the sql driver

    "github.com/GoAdminGroup/go-admin/engine"
    "github.com/GoAdminGroup/go-admin/modules/config"
    "github.com/GoAdminGroup/go-admin/modules/language"
    "github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
)

func main() {
    r := gin.Default()

    // Instantiate a GoAdmin engine object.
    eng := engine.Default()

    // GoAdmin global configuration, can also be imported as a json file.
    cfg := config.Config{
        Databases: []config.Database{
            {
                Host:         "127.0.0.1",
                Port:         "3306",
                User:         "root",
                Pwd:          "root",
                Name:         "godmin",
                MaxIdleCon:   50,
                MaxOpenCon:   150,
                Driver:       "mysql",
            },
        },
        UrlPrefix: "admin", // The url prefix of the website.
        // Store must be set and guaranteed to have write access, otherwise new administrator users cannot be added.
        Store: config.Store{
            Path:   "./uploads",
            Prefix: "uploads",
        },
        Language: language.EN,
    }

    // Add configuration and plugins, use the Use method to mount to the web framework.
    _ = eng.AddConfig(cfg).
        Use(r)

    _ = r.Run(":9033")
}

Please pay attention to the above code and comments, the corresponding steps are added to the comments, it is simple to use. Summary of up to five steps:

  • Import the adapter, the theme and the sql driver

  • Set global configuration items

  • Mounted to the web framework

Then execute go run main.go to run the code and access: http://localhost:9033/admin/login default account: admin default password: admin

Add your own business table for management
