Bind requests to structs with c.Bind() and validate data using c.Validate() or middleware in Echo.

Bind request data to a struct using c.Bind() and validate it using c.Validate() or the echo-contrib/validator middleware.

type User struct {
	Name  string `validate:"required"`
	Email string `validate:"required,email"`
}

e.GET("/user", func(c echo.Context) error {
	var u User
	if err := c.Bind(&u); err != nil {
		return err
	}
	if err := c.Validate(&u); err != nil {
		return err
	}
	return c.JSON(http.StatusOK, u)
})
