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.

Policy-Based Access Control (PBAC): A Comprehensive Overview
However, in this piece we're focusing on the PBAC model also known as Policy-Based Access Control and how it differentiates itself these from traditional access control models in terms of scalability, flexibility and security.

Show HN: AI assistant powered by Groq to generate authorization models
Hi I'm Karan, one of the maintainers of Permify (https://github.com/Permify/permify), an open source authorization service to build scalable authorization systems.
I want to share with you that we've built an AI assistant to help modeling your desired authorization logic! You can basically describe your authorization logic in Permify AI and it will generate the respective model and semantics accordingly. Think of it like ChatGPT for authorization modeling/policy generation.
Here's the project if you would like to play with it: https://ai.permify.co/.
Brief backstory:
Since authorization is generally a domain specific issue use cases vary widely - roles, relationships, attributes, hierarchies between business units, contextual permissions, etc.
To address this, we're offering a domain specific language that we built purely using golang to help model authorization logic programmatically. You can see what it looks like with sample examples in our playground: https://play.permify.co/
Although our domain specific language helps our users significantly, the general idea of policy generation is hard challenging if you have complex authorization logic and versatile permission requirements. Additionally, the flexibility of our modeling language allows for achieving the same policy/permissions through various approaches. But creating the best possible policy is crucial for several reasons including the performance of access checks, the readability of the authorization logic, visibility, and achieving least privilege, etc.
When we tallied up all those reasons, it hit us: using AI could really smooth out the policy generation process. It could not only reduce the engineering effort but also yield the best possible results. That's why we integrated Groq to make to create Permify AI!
Would love to get your feedback on this!

5 Open Source tools written in Golang that you should know about
Permify is an open-source service for creating and managing complex permissions in applications, inspired by Google Zanzibar. It offers a flexible authorization language compatible with various models like RBAC, ReBAC, and ABAC, and allows for efficient authorization data management in preferred databases. Permify's API facilitates access checks, resource filtering, and bulk permission analyses. It also includes comprehensive testing tools for authorization logic, including scenario-based testing and policy coverage analysis. Additionally, Permify supports multi-tenancy, enabling distinct authorization models for different applications within a single instance.

Open-Source Authorization Service for Building Scalable Authorization Systems
I’m one of the maintainers of the OSS project Permify (https://github.com/Permify/permify), an open-source authorization service inspired by Google Zanzibar, which is the global authorization system used at Google to handle authorization for hundreds of its services and products, including YouTube, Drive, Calendar, Cloud, and Maps.

Show HN: Blending Go and WebAssembly to Build Authorization Playground
Hi folks,
I’m one of the maintainers and co-founder of the Go OSS project Permify (https://github.com/Permify/permify), an open-source authorization infrastructure inspired by Google Zanzibar.
I would like to share a post where we aimed to provide a brief overview of how we integrated WASM with Golang to provide a richer user experience in our open-source playground. You can use the playground to create and test any authorization logic in a browser.
The playground has three main sections:
Schema: to model your authorization logic through our domanin specific language we built.
Data: to create sample authorization data according to the model for use in tests.
Enforcement: to test your authorization structure bt access check scenarios.
Here's the post if you're interested: https://www.permify.co/post/wasm-go/
And here's the playground: https://play.permify.co/
Appreciate your time!

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.
