Will it include validation?

[lukashes]

Echo has json-binding abilities. Will it have binding validation options, or I need to use other libs?

It looks like having the ability to hook a validation library may be included in the future see here https://github.com/labstack/echo/blob/master/echo.go#L71 but I don't see it being called anywhere yet.

The approach looks very similar to gin which should be very extensible. If you are interested in a library that would fit into the future bind & validate logic and can still be used separately right now you can check out the same one gin uses by default https://github.com/go-playground/validator

@vishr Something for 2.0?

Most likely, validator will just an interface with users providing the implementation. The method will be exposed from echo.Context smilar to Bind and Render.
