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.

Nanosecond timestamp collisions are common
Our Go ULID package has millisecond precision + monotonic random bytes for disambiguation while preserving ordering within the same millisecond. https://github.com/oklog/ulid

Type-safe, K-sortable, globally unique identifier inspired by Stripe IDs
There is no "tests".
There is just a single test. Which only tests the decoding of a single known value. No encoding test.
Go has infrastructure for benchmarking and fuzzing. Use it!
Also, you took code from https://github.com/oklog/ulid/blob/main/ulid.go which has "Copyright 2016 The Oklog Authors" but this is not mentionned in your base32.go.

cmackenzie1/go-uuid: library for generating version 4 (random) and version 7 (time-ordered) UUIDs
maybe because of dependencies: https://github.com/oklog/ulid/blob/main/go.mod ??

UUIDs Are Bad for Database Index Performance, enter UUID7!
Universally Unique Lexicographically Sortable Identifier

Is it bad to use short (20 chars) random strings as primary keys?
I'm not concerned too much about the performance or the storage size at this stage. I've checked ulids before posting (more specifically https://github.com/oklog/ulid) but the only difference than a random string (especially if you use them with math.rand) is the timestamp prefix which makes them sortable, but I don't need that (users could use the internal SQLite rowid if they needed to sort by a primary key).
- UUIDs Are Popular, but Bad for Performance

Golang Base Project - A simple web app with user authentication
why are you using https://github.com/oklog/ulid to generate a cookie secret?
-
What are your favorite packages to use?
oklog/ulid to generate IDs. coreos/go-oidc for validating JWTs I get from auth. google/go-cmp for comparing structs in tests (unless the project is already using Testify). spf13/pflag because life's too short for Go's flag handling. getkin/kin-openapi for validating reqests/responses against my OpenAPI spec (in tests).

Keyset pagination using UUID v4 mongodb go
If you just want to roll with an off-the-shelf library, you can use ULID. There are tons of custom made *flake alternatives. If ULID doesn't fit your purposes, look for others.

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?
nanoid - A tiny and fast Go unique string generator
zap - Blazing fast, structured, leveled logging in Go.
xid - xid is a globally unique id generator thought for the web
logrus - Structured, pluggable logging for Go.
gouid - Fast, dependable universally unique ids
lumberjack - lumberjack is a log rolling package for Go
sno - Compact, sortable and fast unique IDs with embedded metadata.
glog - Leveled execution logs for Go
goflake - A highly scalable and serverless unique ID generator for use in distributed systems. Written in GoLang. Inspired by Twitters Snowflake.
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.
Monoton - Highly scalable, single/multi node, sortable, predictable and incremental unique id generator with zero allocation magic on the sequential generation
log - Structured logging package for Go.
