Some simple get examples using SendGrid's REST against Github API

rest_api.go

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"encoding/json"
	"github.com/sendgrid/rest"
)

func main() {
    // var
	url := "https://api.github.com/"
	method := rest.Get
    // make request and catch err
	request := rest.Request{
		Method:  method,
		BaseURL: url,
	}
	resp, err := rest.API(request)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(err)
	}
    // Unmarshal body into body_map
	body := []byte(resp.Body)
	var body_iface interface{}
	err = json.Unmarshal(body, &body_iface)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(err)
	}
	body_map := body_iface.(map[string]interface{})
    // lets select format with some output
	fmt.Printf("Response: %v\n", resp.StatusCode)
	fmt.Println()
	fmt.Printf("Body: %v\n", body_map["current_user_url"].(string))
	fmt.Println()
	fmt.Printf("Headers: %v\n", resp.Headers["Status"])
}
