# Application The app object conventionally denotes the Fiber application. #### Initialize Creates an Fiber instance name "app" ```go app := fiber.New() // Optional fiber settings // Sends the "Server" header, disabled by default app.Server = "" // Hides fiber banner, enabled by default app.Banner = true ``` #### TLS To enable TLS you need to provide a certkey and certfile. ```go // Enable TLS app := fiber.New() app.CertKey("./cert.key") app.CertFile("./cert.pem") app.Listen(443) ``` #### Fasthttp You can pass some Fasthttp server settings via the Fiber instance. Make sure that you set these settings before calling the [Listen](#listen) method. You can find the description of each property in [Fasthttp server settings](https://github.com/valyala/fasthttp/blob/master/server.go#L150) !>Only change these settings if you know what you are doing. ```go app := fiber.New() app.Fasthttp.Concurrency = 256 * 1024 app.Fasthttp.DisableKeepAlive = false app.Fasthttp.ReadBufferSize = 4096 app.Fasthttp.WriteBufferSize = 4096 app.Fasthttp.ReadTimeout = 0 app.Fasthttp.WriteTimeout = 0 app.Fasthttp.IdleTimeout = 0 app.Fasthttp.MaxConnsPerIP = 0 app.Fasthttp.MaxRequestsPerConn = 0 app.Fasthttp.TCPKeepalive = false app.Fasthttp.TCPKeepalivePeriod = 0 app.Fasthttp.MaxRequestBodySize = 4 * 1024 * 1024 app.Fasthttp.ReduceMemoryUsage = false app.Fasthttp.GetOnly = false app.Fasthttp.DisableHeaderNamesNormalizing = false app.Fasthttp.SleepWhenConcurrencyLimitsExceeded = 0 app.Fasthttp.NoDefaultContentType = false app.Fasthttp.KeepHijackedConns = false ``` #### Methods Routes an HTTP request, where METHOD is the HTTP method of the request, such as GET, PUT, POST, and so on capitalized. Thus, the actual methods are app.Get(), app.Post(), app.Put(), and so on. See Routing methods below for the complete list. ```go // Function signature app.Connect(...) app.Delete(...) app.Get(...) app.Head(...) app.Options(...) app.Patch(...) app.Post(...) app.Put(...) app.Trace(...) // Matches all HTTP verbs // Use & All are the same function app.Use(...) app.All(...) ``` #### Listen Binds and listens for connections on the specified host and port. ```go // Function signature app.Listen(port int, addr ...string) // Example app.Listen(8080) app.Listen(8080, "127.0.0.1") ``` *Caught a mistake?
