Encore VS jsoniter

In this tutorial you will create a REST API for a URL Shortener service using Encore for TypeScript, a new way of building fully type-safe and production-ready distributed systems in TypeScript using declarative infrastructure.

At Encore, we've made it easier by making Pub/Sub is a native component in Encore's Open Source Infrastructure SDK.

⭐️ Support the project by starring Encore on GitHub.

Very cool. Reminds me of the encore framework, also written in go: https://github.com/encoredev/encore

Need to spend some more time looking into these go based frameworks, they seem great for quick prototyping

package url import ( "context" "testing" ) // TestShortenAndRetrieve - test that the shortened URL is stored and retrieved from database. func TestShortenAndRetrieve(t *testing.T) { testURL := "https://github.com/encoredev/encore" sp := ShortenParams{URL: testURL} resp, err := Shorten(context.Background(), &sp) if err != nil { t.Fatal(err) } wantURL := testURL if resp.URL != wantURL { t.Errorf("got %q, want %q", resp.URL, wantURL) } firstURL := resp gotURL, err := Get(context.Background(), firstURL.ID) if err != nil { t.Fatal(err) } if *gotURL != *firstURL { t.Errorf("got %v, want %v", *gotURL, *firstURL) } }

For something in the same vein but for Go, there is Encore: https://encore.dev / https://github.com/encoredev/encore

The framework is Open Source and the Encore platform provides free cloud hosting for hobby projects.

Encore is a backend framework for creating cloud backend applications where infrastructure is provisioned automatically from business logic.

Since most of the time would be spent decoding json, you could try to cut this time using https://github.com/bytedance/sonic or https://github.com/json-iterator/go, both are drop-in replacements for the stdlib, sonic is faster.

We all know the builtin golang JSON parser is slow.

How about doing comparisons against other implementations?

Like this one: https://github.com/json-iterator/go

Json-iterator (https://github.com/json-iterator/go), you can replace all of encoding/json with this. It does the same thing but it's faster.

Do you want to look at every field all at the same time? If not, you can pick out individual fields. There's other packages such as https://github.com/tidwall/gjson or https://github.com/json-iterator/go that let you pass in paths such as "a.b.c" to extract single fields.

For each Go type used within the config, we generate a separate unmarshaller function. The unmarshallers use json-iterator to process the output from CUE, while tracking the path within the config to the unmarshalled value. This path tracking will allow the function to check if live overrides have been provided on that path and return the override instead.

https://github.com/json-iterator/go an alternative JSON encoding package which allows to stream (flush out) encoded data as soon as it's able to (which is in contrast with the stock package which buffers everything until the encoding is known to be complete and OK).

What to use Easyjson is about the top of the pack and it's straightforward. The downside of efficient tools is that they use code generation to create the code required to turn your structs into json to minimise allocations. This is a manual build step which is annoying. Interestingly json-iterator also uses reflection but it's significantly faster. I suspect black magic.

jsoniter for low level access to JSON encode and decode

Takes like 10 minutes to write and parses very efficiently. https://github.com/json-iterator/go looks like it can provide such simple parsing
