chi VS cobra

I use go-chi for handling routes and to server static file(stylesheet).

This will be the structure of our project, we will use PostgreSQL as the database, go chi to create our endpoints, go dot env to import our environment variables.

go-chi: is a lightweight, idiomatic and composable router for building Go HTTP services.

Go Chi para criar nossas rotas

For HTTP I'd look at Chi https://github.com/go-chi/chi

In fact, it has zero dependencies outside of std lib in it's core: https://github.com/go-chi/chi/blob/master/go.mod

Interesting. go-chi added it as a middleware 4 months ago, but its not in the module docs since they haven't tagged a version since Dec 2022: https://github.com/go-chi/chi/blob/master/middleware/request_size.go

We can use the flag with --date or -date, Go already does the automatic check. We can make our entire boilerplate with this approach, but let's make it a little easier and use the Cobra CLI package.

In this tutorial, we'll walk through the process of creating a simple command-line tool similar to curl using Go and Cobra, a CLI library for Go.

I use https://github.com/spf13/cobra religiously for this kind of thing - it handles all the annoying corner cases of parsing flags, and also has an intuitive notion of subcommands (with basic usage/help text generated) for picking which task you want to run with positional arguments.

We recently chose cobra[1] to create a cli application. It comes with so many best practices already packaged like autocompletions, help texts etc. etc.

I looked at the docs: https://cobra.dev/ ... and there are only examples on how to add new flags.

For installing Cobra-CLI you can go to Cobraor run go install github.com/spf13/cobra-cli@latest in the terminal.

In my build phase, I compile the source to create a k3sup binary and I also run the binary to generate shell script completions. Give kudos to this functionality which comes from spf13/cobra Go library for CLIs.

NWA is a command-line tool built on cobra. Here's an overview of NWA's commands:
