Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Testcontainers
I am using https://github.com/ory/dockertest for tests, specifically for databases. Is there any advantage to use Testcontainers?
-
Level UP your RDBMS Productivity in GO
Now, let's run the tests. For this purpose, we are going to use dockertest, but test containers is also a good solution.

Golang testing using docker services via dockertest
During my path learning go so far I have come across some amazing libraries and utilites, one of my favourite for integration testing is dockertest.

How to start a Go project in 2023
Things I can't live without in a new Go project in no particular order:
- https://github.com/golangci/golangci-lint - meta-linter
- https://goreleaser.com - automate release workflows
- https://magefile.org - build tool that can version your tools
- https://github.com/ory/dockertest/v3 - run containers for e2e testing
- https://github.com/ecordell/optgen - generate functional options
- https://golang.org/x/tools/cmd/stringer - generate String()
- https://mvdan.cc/gofumpt - stricter gofmt
- https://github.com/stretchr/testify - test assertion library
- https://github.com/rs/zerolog - logging
- https://github.com/spf13/cobra - CLI framework
FWIW, I just lifted all the tools we use for https://github.com/authzed/spicedb
We've also written some custom linters that might be useful for other folks: https://github.com/authzed/spicedb/tree/main/tools/analyzers

Beginner-friendly API made with Go following hexagonal architecture.
I've used dockertest a bunch and it is really amazing.

How to unit test your database interactions with Docker
Reminds me of https://github.com/ory/dockertest
-
When to mock and what to mock in a Web API?
If your project is relatively simple and you can get away with recreating your scenarios against a real mock database and run other related services locally. It would be good to setup docker containers for your test scripts and write e2e tests. I believe e2e tests are harder but more useful in understanding/reasoning how users are impacted.
-
Don't Mock the Database
Just a heads up, the repository in your comment is invalid, the correct link is https://github.com/ory/dockertest
-
Mocking database calls without a library?
Don't mock. Use https://github.com/ory/dockertest to actually run tests against a dockerized DB.
-
Different SQL drivers for test and production
Use a library like ory/dockertest to spin up a test database for integration tests. It's easy to use, and tests are still fast. It'll take a minute to download the mysql docker image the first time. But, once it's been downloaded, starting the db, running migrations, and running the tests is still pretty quick.

From Homemade HTTP Router to New ServeMux
This is not a disproval, but gorilla/mux has comparatively poor benchmark results among popular (many stars) third-party HTTP routers. , used by many users.

How AuDHD traits have helped me get good at devrel
This attention to detail also can mean that for key abstractions in a tool or framework, what concretely goes on doesn't go unexplained. For example, when I was learning Go for web development, my first stumbling block was understanding how interfaces worked, particularly http.Handler, which is key to doing web development with Go's powerful net/http package and the fits-like-a-glove package built on top of it, the Gorilla Mux router. My way of finding out how that worked, and seeing the elegance of that interface, was pretty unorthodox - I figured out how Handlers worked by looking directly at Go's source code (which also is a demonstration of Go's readability, if you're interested in joining the Gophers!). And coming out of that was my very first tech talk at in 2015, on learning Gorilla from its Node.js counterpart, Express.js!

Microservices Authentication and Authorization Using API Gateway
In this ApiGateway implementation, we've employed the Gorilla Mux router for enhanced route handling. Let's break down the key components:

How to build an API using Go
Now that we have set up the Go environment, we can start building our API. The first step is to choose a framework. There are several popular frameworks for building APIs in Go, such as Gorilla mux, Echo, and Gin. For this article, we'll use Gorilla mux.

go-mir - a toolkit to develop RESTful API backend service like develop service of gRPC
Mir is a toolkit to develop RESTful API backend service like develop service of gRPC. It adapt some HTTP framework sush as Gin, Chi, Hertz, Echo, Iris, Fiber, Macaron, Mux, httprouter。

I've just started learning Golang, and I'm struggling to choose a framework.
My personal favorite tools: - https://github.com/go-kit/ for building services (although it's not necessary a great tool for prototyping) - https://github.com/gorilla/mux router (although it's been recently deprecated, so I'm looking for a similar, maintained library) - https://entgo.io/ ORM - https://watermill.io/ for messaging

Using Redis Caching and the Redis CLI to Improve API Performance
We will be using Gorilla Mux to create the APIs locally. Gorilla Mux implements a request router and dispatcher to match the incoming requests.
What are some alternatives?
testcontainers-go - Testcontainers for Go is a Go package that makes it simple to create and clean up container-based dependencies for automated integration/smoke tests. The clean, easy-to-use API enables developers to programmatically define containers that should be run as part of a test and clean up those resources when the test is done.
Gin - Gin is a HTTP web framework written in Go (Golang). It features a Martini-like API with much better performance -- up to 40 times faster. If you need smashing performance, get yourself some Gin.
fake-gcs-server - Google Cloud Storage emulator & testing library.
Fiber - ⚡️ Express inspired web framework written in Go
mockaroo - Mock-A-🦘 (mock-aa-roo) a comprehensive HTTP/HTTPS interface mocking tool for all your development and testing needs!
Echo - High performance, minimalist Go web framework
venom - 🐍 Manage and run your integration tests with efficiency - Venom run executors (script, HTTP Request, web, imap, etc... ) and assertions
chi - lightweight, idiomatic and composable router for building Go HTTP services
steampipe - Zero-ETL, infinite possibilities. Live query APIs, code & more with SQL. No DB required.
httprouter - A high performance HTTP request router that scales well
go-sqlmock - Sql mock driver for golang to test database interactions
fasthttp - Fast HTTP package for Go. Tuned for high performance. Zero memory allocations in hot paths. Up to 10x faster than net/http
