Uploading and Serving Images from MongoDB in Golang
MongoDB, a document-oriented NoSQL database, will be our data powerhouse. We'll utilize the mongo-driver library to seamlessly connect our Golang application to MongoDB. This section will cover essential database interactions, including creating collections, storing metadata, and efficiently querying for image-related data. Understanding these fundamentals is crucial for building a robust image storage and retrieval system.

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

Go EventSourcing and CQRS microservice using EventStoreDB šā”ļøš«
In this project we have microservice working with EventStoreDB using oficial go client, for [projections (https://zimarev.com/blog/event-sourcing/projections/) used MongoDB and Elasticsearch for search, and communicate by gRPC and REST. Did not implement here any interesting business logic and didn't cover tests, because don't have enough time, the events list is very simple: create a new order, update shopping cart, pay, submit, cancel, change the delivery address, complete order, and of course in real-world better use more concrete and meaningfully events, but the target here is to show the idea and how it works. Event Sourcing can be implemented in different ways, used here EventStoreDB, but we can do it with PostgreSQL and Kafka for example. After trying both approaches, found EventStoreDB is a better solution because all required features are implemented out of the box, it is optimized and really very good engineers developing it.

OpenBSD 7.5 Released
When Go first shipped, it was already well-documented that the only stable ABI on some platforms was via dynamic libraries (such as libc) provided by said platforms. Go knowingly and deliberately ignored this on the assumption that they can get away with it. And then this happened:
https://github.com/golang/go/issues/16606
If that's not "getting burned", I don't know what is. "Trying to provide a nice feature" is an excuse, and it can be argued that it is a valid one, but nevertheless they knew that they were using an unstable ABI that could be pulled out from under them at any moment, and decided that it's worth the risk. I don't see what that has to do with "not being as broadly compatible as they had hoped", since it was all known well in advance.

Go's Error Handling Is Perfect
Sadly, I think that is indeed radically different from Goās design. Go lacks anything like sum types, and proposals to add them to the language have revealed deep issues that have stalled any development. See https://github.com/golang/go/issues/57644

Go Enums Still Suck
I have a mountain of respect for Bell Labs and its contributions to the public welfare, and a lot of respect for the current group of alumni, mostly at Google, and mostly affiliated to a greater or lesser degree with golang. I have my differences with one or two of them (Pike telegraphs a wildly overcompensated imposter syndrome, but heās almost as much of a genius as he acts like he is and who am I to judge on an overcompensated imposter syndrome, moreover when the guy in at the next desk over is Ken Thompson, who wouldnāt be a little intimidated by the legend).
With that said, golang is too opinionated for its level of adoption, too out-of-touch with emerging consensus (and Iām being generous with āemergingā here, the Either monad is more than an emerging consensus around the right default for error handling), and too insular a leadership to be, in my personal opinion, a key contender outside some narrow niches.
Iām aware that there are avid advocates for golang on HN, and that Iām liable to upset some of them by saying so, so Iām going to use some examples to illustrate my point and to illustrate that Iāve done my homework before being critical.
Many, including myself, became aware of what is now called golang via this presentation at Google in 2007 (https://youtu.be/hB05UFqOtFA) introducing Newsqueak, a language Pike was pushing back in the mid-90s with what seems to be limited enthusiasm no greater than the enthusiasm for its predecessor Squeak. Any golang hacker will immediately recognize the language taking shape on the slides.
Iāve been dabbling with golang for something like a decade now, because I really want to like it. But like a lot of the late labs stuff it seems to have suffered from the dangerous combination of the implications of Richard Gabrielās Worse is Better observation: it was simpler, faster, cheaper, and ultimately more successful to incrementally adapt innovations from Plan9 into Linux (and other Unices), to adapt innovations from sam and acme into nvim/emacs (and now VSCode), and to adapt channel-based and other principled concurrency from Newsqueak/golang (not to mention Erlang and other more full-throated endorsements of that region of the design space) into now countless other languages ranging from things like TypeScript and Rust at the high end of adoption all the way to things like Haskell at more moderate levels of adoption. Ironically enough, the success of UTF-8 (a compromise for the non-ASCII world but the compromise that made it happen at all) is this same principle in action via the same folks!
And golang would be fine as yet another interesting language serving as a testbed for more pragmatic applications of radical ideas: but itās got corporate sponsorship that puts Sun Microsystems and Java to shame in scale and scope, but done quietly enough to not set off the same alarm bells.
The best example of this is probably this GitHub issue: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/19991 (though there are countless like it). Iāve worked with Tony Arcieri, heās brilliant and humble and hard-working and while we havenāt kept in touch, I keep an eye out, and heās clearly passionate about the success of golang. But proposal after proposal for some variation of the Either monad has died on procedural grounds for nearly a decade, all while being about the only thing that everyone else agrees on in modern industrial PLT: TypeScript supports it, Rust supports it, C++ de-facto supports it via things like abseil and folly, and of course the hard-core functional community never even bothered with something worse in the modern era. You can even kind of do it, but there are intentional limitations in the way generics get handled across compilation units to ensure it never gets adopted as a community-driven initiative. Try if you donāt believe me (my golang code has a Result type via emacs lisp I wrote).
Another example is the really weird compilation chain: countless serious people have weighed in here, Iāll elide all the classics because most people making these arguments have their own favorite language and theyāve all been on HN dozens of times, but a custom assembly language is a weird thing to have done, almost no one outside the hardcore golang community thinks itās sane, the problems is creates for build systems and FFI and just everything about actually running the stuff are completely unnecessary: there are other IRs, not all of them are LLVM IR if youāve got some beef with LLVM IR, and given that go doesnāt seriously target FFI as more than a weird black sheep (cgo) thereās, ya know, assembly language. Itās a parting shot from the Plan9 diehards with the industrial clout to make it stick.
The garbage collection story is getting better but itās an acknowledged handicap in a MxN threading model context, itās not a secret or controversial even among the maintainers. See the famous āTwo Knobsā talk.
Raw pointers, sum types, dependency management, build, generics that never get there, FFI: solved problem after solved problem killed by pocket veto, explained away, minimized, all with mega-bucks, quiet as a gopher corporate sponsorship fighting a Cold War against Sun and the JVM that doesnāt exist anymore marketed by appealing to the worst instincts of otherwise unimpeachable luminaries of computing.
There is great software written in golang by engineers I aspire to as role models (TailScale and Brad respectively as maybe the best example). I had to get serious about learning golang and how to work around its ideologically-motivated own-goals because I got serious about WebRTC and Pion (another great piece of software). But it sucks. I dread working on that part of the stack.
Go enums do suck, but thatās because we pay a very heavy price for golang being mainstream at all: weāve thrown away ZooKeeper and engineer-millennia of garbage-collector work and countless other treasures, it sucks oxygen out of the room on more plausible C successors like D and Jai and Nim and Zig and V and (it pains me to admit but itās true) Rust.
Yes there is great software in golang, tons of it. Yes there are iconic legends who are passionate about it, yes it brought new stuff to the party and the mainstream.
But the cost was too high.
