  Description     : Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) prevention middleware for Go
 gorilla/csrf is a HTTP middleware library that provides cross-site request
 forgery (CSRF) protection.  It includes:
 .
  * The csrf.Protect middleware/handler provides CSRF protection on routes
    attached to a router or a sub-router.
  * A csrf.Token function that provides the token to pass into your response,
    whether that be a HTML form or a JSON response body.
  * ... and a csrf.TemplateField helper that you can pass into your
    html/template templates to replace a {{ .csrfField }} template tag
    with a hidden input field.
 .
 gorilla/csrf is designed to work with any Go web framework, including:
 .
  * The Gorilla toolkit
  * Go's built-in net/http package
  * Goji - see the tailored fork https://github.com/goji/csrf
  * Gin
  * Echo
  * ... and any other router/framework that rallies around Go's http.Handler
    interface.
 .
 gorilla/csrf is also compatible with middleware 'helper' libraries
 like Alice and Negroni.
