Gorilla/Mux Reverse mapping URL

Question

I'm new in development. Now trying to learn gorilla/mux router. The question is about reversed urls. In gorilla/mux I know we name them with.Name() method and access with.Url(). Could someone explain real use case of reserved URL's(Reverse mapping URL)? But a few hours of googling didn't help me to find any info about that why we even need them? Will be really thankfull if you could show some practical examples.

Answer 1

Use cases if someone needs.

• Constructing redirects to send to a client - eg programmatically, so you don't have to fix the URLs in your code elsewhere

• Building examples & tests

• Generating docs
