RouterGroup
// routeTreesUpdated ensures that the initialization or update of the route trees
// (used for routing HTTP requests) happens only once, even if called multiple times concurrently.
routeTreesUpdated sync.Once
// RedirectTrailingSlash enables automatic redirection if the current route can't be matched but a
// handler for the path with (without) the trailing slash exists.
// For example if /foo/ is requested but a route only exists for /foo, the
// client is redirected to /foo with http status code 301 for GET requests
// and 307 for all other request methods.
RedirectTrailingSlash bool
// RedirectFixedPath if enabled, the router tries to fix the current request path, if no
// handle is registered for it.
// First superfluous path elements like ../ or // are removed.
// Afterwards the router does a case-insensitive lookup of the cleaned path.
// If a handle can be found for this route, the router makes a redirection
// to the corrected path with status code 301 for GET requests and 307 for
// all other request methods.
// For example /FOO and /..//Foo could be redirected to /foo.
// RedirectTrailingSlash is independent of this option.
RedirectFixedPath bool
// HandleMethodNotAllowed if enabled, the router checks if another method is allowed for the
// current route, if the current request can not be routed.
// If this is the case, the request is answered with 'Method Not Allowed'
// and HTTP status code 405.
// If no other Method is allowed, the request is delegated to the NotFound
// handler.
HandleMethodNotAllowed bool
// ForwardedByClientIP if enabled, client IP will be parsed from the request's headers that
// match those stored at `(*gin.Engine).RemoteIPHeaders`. If no IP was
// fetched, it falls back to the IP obtained from
// `(*gin.Context).Request.RemoteAddr`.
ForwardedByClientIP bool
// AppEngine was deprecated.
// Deprecated: USE `TrustedPlatform` WITH VALUE `gin.PlatformGoogleAppEngine` INSTEAD
// #726 #755 If enabled, it will trust some headers starting with
// 'X-AppEngine...' for better integration with that PaaS.
AppEngine bool
// UseRawPath if enabled, the url.RawPath will be used to find parameters.
// The RawPath is only a hint, EscapedPath() should be use instead. (https://pkg.go.dev/net/url@master#URL)
// Only use RawPath if you know what you are doing.
UseRawPath bool
// UseEscapedPath if enable, the url.EscapedPath() will be used to find parameters
// It overrides UseRawPath
UseEscapedPath bool
// UnescapePathValues if true, the path value will be unescaped.
// If UseRawPath and UseEscapedPath are false (by default), the UnescapePathValues effectively is true,
// as url.Path gonna be used, which is already unescaped.
UnescapePathValues bool
// RemoveExtraSlash a parameter can be parsed from the URL even with extra slashes.
// See the PR #1817 and issue #1644
RemoveExtraSlash bool
// RemoteIPHeaders list of headers used to obtain the client IP when
// `(*gin.Engine).ForwardedByClientIP` is `true` and
// `(*gin.Context).Request.RemoteAddr` is matched by at least one of the
// network origins of list defined by `(*gin.Engine).SetTrustedProxies()`.
RemoteIPHeaders []string
// TrustedPlatform if set to a constant of value gin.Platform*, trusts the headers set by
// that platform, for example to determine the client IP
TrustedPlatform string
// MaxMultipartMemory value of 'maxMemory' param that is given to http.Request's ParseMultipartForm
// method call.
MaxMultipartMemory int64
// UseH2C enable h2c support.
UseH2C bool
// ContextWithFallback enable fallback Context.Deadline(), Context.Done(), Context.Err() and Context.Value() when Context.Request.Context() is not nil.
