Hi,

gin works as expected. You register your handle to react on HTTP-Method "GOT", which is not defined in the HTTP-Spec (see https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9110.html#name-methods).

r.Handle("GOT"...

Change this to "GET" or better "http.MethodGet" (and corresponding import), your bug is fixed.

BTW, if you have curl installed you could also try to call the "GOT"-HTTP-Method with:

curl -X GOT http://localhost:9999/test

I think methods that do not belong to http should be filtered out
