  • API validation in Gin: Ensuring Data Integrity in Your API
    1 project | dev.to | 10 Sep 2023
    If you want to know all the available validation in Gin. Then you can look at this package because Gin uses this package under the hood. Package: https://github.com/go-playground/validator Specific-file: https://github.com/go-playground/validator/blob/master/baked_in.go#L73
  • Yet another validator 0.9.5

    Now it has most of the Playground validator's common checks and a few own tricks.
  • Openapi server generation
    3 projects | /r/golang | 25 Aug 2023
    In Go I've found this package - https://github.com/go-playground/validator. It seems popular in the community, but it is tag-based. It looks like if I wanted to use it - I would have to basically duplicate structs.
  • Validator in handler or domain
    1 project | /r/golang | 1 Jul 2023
    so I am working on a ecommerce api as a hobby project which is mostly inspired by wtf dial project I like to use validator package to remove boilerplate over my domain package for example take a look https://github.com/mortezadadgar/ecommerce-api/blob/b0bf43d042d62fdca1c2d097ec51b05bc539cef2/domain/users.go#L33 I have to option either add validate.Struct() to my domain which is suggested to avoid by author of wtf peoject or add it to handler which I doubt is a good idea as it's not in business logic of handler and makes unit testing harder
  • Request Validations in Go REST API

    I use https://github.com/go-playground/validator, but honestly, I am not a fan. I just haven’t found anything better.
  • Tools besides Go for a newbie
    36 projects | /r/golang | 26 Mar 2023
    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
