make a http patch request in go

To make a HTTP Patch request in Go, you can use the "net/http" package which provides all the functionality required to make HTTP requests.

Here is an example code to make a PATCH request:

main.go
import (
	"bytes"
	"net/http"
)

func updateResource() {
    url := "https://example.com/some-resource"
    requestBody := []byte(`{"id": 1, "name": "Updated Resource"}`)

    req, err := http.NewRequest("PATCH", url, bytes.NewBuffer(requestBody))
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }

    // Set headers
    req.Header.Set("Content-Type", "application/json")

    // Create http client and send request
	client := &http.Client{}
    resp, err := client.Do(req)
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
    defer resp.Body.Close()

    // Handle response
    if resp.StatusCode == http.StatusOK {
        // Handle success response
    } else {
        // Handle error response
    }
}

In this example, we create a new PATCH request using http.NewRequest() method and set the Content-Type header to application/json. We then send the request using an http client and handle the response accordingly.
