client_golang VS goqu

Prometheus, an open-source systems monitoring and alerting toolkit, has client libraries that allow you to instrument your services in a variety of languages. Here's an example of how you might use the Go client library to expose metrics on an HTTP endpoint. We will leverage the prometheus go client to expose metrics and create them.

Monitoring prometheus, grafana

I'd recommend github.com/victoriametrics/metrics for exporting custom metrics in Prometheus format. It is easier to use than the github.com/prometheus/client_golang.

Start at the official documentation and the Go client library .

DataDog can read Prometheus metrics. Note that this approach works for metrics but not for traces although you can configure DataDog to receive OpenTelemetry traces as well https://github.com/prometheus/client_golang

For Go, the standard is to use Prometheus and the Prometheus Go client library.

For SQL, I'd probably go with goqu http://doug-martin.github.io/goqu/

I use goqu (https://github.com/doug-martin/goqu)

SQL Builders (think squirrel or goqu)

I've been looking for a package that allows me to build Postgres DDL statements in Golang. I'm currently using Goqu (https://github.com/doug-martin/goqu) for building statements and it works great, however it does not have support for building schemas. Basic things like creating tables, creating indexes. A great one in JavaScript can be found here: (https://knexjs.org/guide/schema-builder.html#essentials) I have been unable to find anything in Go, does anyone know of any packages like this?

Then use something like https://github.com/doug-martin/goqu to build the SQL.

Try this

We've been using goqu and it's super nice! although there are a ton of other query builders that could better fit your use-case.

If the statement is too dynamic to use query parameters I'd ideally use a dynamic query builder rather than concatenating strings. Goqu is a lib like that but I haven't yet used it personally https://github.com/doug-martin/goqu
