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.

- How do you unit-test code that reaches out to the db, without introducing interfaces everywhere?

Creating an API using Go and sqlc
For that, I used the lib go-sqlmock. So, for example, the following snippet is part of the person/service_test.go file:

Using SQLC in project how do I mock database Calls with it for unit testing?
It's not the right call IMO to skip mocking the database connection to achieve 100% test coverage. How your app will behave in failure scenarios that are impossible to imitate during integration tests is part of the software contract. If your choice is to panic, or return an error, document that by testing that behavior. If another dev, or future you inadvertently breaks the contract, the test suite will fail. That's what you want. For unit tests against your database you should be using either go-sqlmock if testing against database/sql or pgxmock if testing against pgx. That being said, the points raised elsewhere in this thread regarding unit tests potentially hiding edge cases in terms of how an actual database will interact with your application that are not reflective of your understanding when writing mocks are 100% valid. You should do both. Unit test your app and write integration tests as well. On my team, we run integration tests using docker-compose.

- How to mock database calls

Can you set expectations for SQL transaction using Testify?
I use Sqlmock for that purpose
- Mocking database queries - ask for opinion
- SQL mock driver for Golang to test database interactions
- Can't get a specifc SQL query with pgx to work

[HELP] how to test this piece of code?
There is a good lib for db tests https://github.com/DATA-DOG/go-sqlmock

Go 1.21 Released
Be aware that there is a performance impact compared to using zerolog directly [0] (my uneducated guess is it is likely due to pointer indirection).

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

claim: qlog is faster, simpler and more efficient that slog; and does more practically useful stuff too
Can you compare it against zerolog?

Zerolog printing logs multiple times
Hello gophers, I am using https://github.com/uber-go/fx and https://github.com/rs/zerolog for logging.

Doubt around "Test only public functions" concept
Hovewer it is not bad to export such a function, if it is done purely for convenience. For example github.com/rs/zerolog works on a logger instances, which can be created manually, but they also provide a github.com/rs/zerolog/blob//log package, which provide you access to the global logger which is more convenient in most cases

Tools besides Go for a newbie
IDE: use whatever make you productive. I personally use vscode. VCS: git, as golang communities use github heavily as base for many libraries. AFAIK Linter: use staticcheck for linting as it looks like mostly used linting tool in go, supported by many also. In Vscode it will be recommended once you install go plugin. Libraries/Framework: actually the standard libraries already included many things you need, decent enough for your day-to-day development cycles(e.g. `net/http`). But here are things for extra: - Struct fields validator: validator - Http server lib: chi router , httprouter , fasthttp (for non standard http implementations, but fast) - Web Framework: echo , gin , fiber , beego , etc - Http client lib: most already covered by stdlib(net/http), so you rarely need extra lib for this, but if you really need some are: resty - CLI: cobra - Config: godotenv , viper - DB Drivers: sqlx , postgre , sqlite , mysql - nosql: redis , mongodb , elasticsearch - ORM: gorm , entgo , sqlc(codegen) - JS Transpiler: gopherjs - GUI: fyne - grpc: grpc - logging: zerolog - test: testify , gomock , dockertest - and many others you can find here

What is the common log library which is industry standard that is used in server applications?
I use zerolog myself and have seen it being used in production several times. Also they have a list of who uses zerolog

Log: A minimal, colorful Go logging library 🪵
This would be so awesome if it was extending an awesome logger like https://github.com/rs/zerolog. Personally I love zerolog because of how it handles different data types including structs!

Best Logging Library for Golang
logrus README recommended using other libraries such as Zerolog, Zap, and Apex.
- If you had to choose a logging framework, which one would you use?
What are some alternatives?
gomock - GoMock is a mocking framework for the Go programming language.
zap - Blazing fast, structured, leveled logging in Go.
go-txdb - Immutable transaction isolated sql driver for golang
logrus - Structured, pluggable logging for Go.
mockery - A mock code autogenerator for Go
lumberjack - lumberjack is a log rolling package for Go
gock - HTTP traffic mocking and testing made easy in Go ༼ʘ̚ل͜ʘ̚༽
glog - Leveled execution logs for Go
minimock - Powerful mock generation tool for Go programming language
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.
gotests - Automatically generate Go test boilerplate from your source code.
log - Structured logging package for Go.
