todo-api-microservice-example VS mux

Hello guys im a self teach coder. im working with golang atm because this great project speed up my learning curve: https://github.com/MarioCarrion/todo-api-microservice-example

With that being said, if you're looking for something friendlier, I share my own educational repo, still a WIP but it should help you with the basics.

internal/tools and

You are going to need to add a domain package where the Beer type and all the logic associated to that type is defined to avoid the cyclical dependency. I typically follow this approach by using internal as the domain package that then other packages like services, data stores or transport use.

Here's my approach; a few worth-mentioning packages in there: * service defines the use cases, it's a glue between the domain model and repositories. * rest defines the http handlers uses the service types via dependency injection (see main.go) * postgresql concrete repository example (there are other implementations for other data stores like kafka, redis, etcetera.

Other redditors mentioned some good resources, I'm going to shamelessly plug mine as well; either way after you are done with whatever tutorial you use I recommend you to look at the Exposure Notifications Server, reading the source code should help you learn other best practices.

One word of advise I can give you is that building a production-grade microservice in Go takes a bit; not because of the language but because you have consider the tradeoffs when choosing different packages to connect everything to make it work (because there's no Django, Ruby on Rails or Spring), I have an educational repository (still work in progress) trying to describe what I've learned from the last 5 years after successfully deploying multiple services to production where multiple engineers contribute and collaborate together; perhaps that could help you.

With all of that being said I have an educational repository demonstrating this structure, I've been using it in real life for about 5 years already and I've successfully delivered services to production multiple times where multiple engineers contribute and collaborate together.

You may want to checkout the "Exposure Notifications Server" project; I also have a similar (educational) project that uses the Repository Pattern.

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.

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!

In this ApiGateway implementation, we've employed the Gorilla Mux router for enhanced route handling. Let's break down the key components:

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.

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。

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

We will be using Gorilla Mux to create the APIs locally. Gorilla Mux implements a request router and dispatcher to match the incoming requests.
