  • Explanation of context in go?

    If I may be so bold to plug my own work. This package uses context's value storage feature quite a bit (see context.go) to offer APIs that can add custom data for diagnostics and observability purposes. The values stored in the context are used not for application logic, but to potentially attach to an error report. Particularly useful in middleware handlers.
