Can someone please explain Go project structures to me like I'm a child, please?

• golang-standards/project-layout

  195 45,852 6.4 Makefile

  Standard Go Project Layout

  

Awesome! I've also following the same project structure rules for several years of golang development. It should be somewhere in official documentation, I think :D Like here https://github.com/golang-standards/project-layout

• my-project

  1 - -

github.com/me/my-project naming convention is not strictly necessary, but allows you to share your libraries more easily with others

• InfluxDB

• Puts Debuggerer

  3,150 91 5.5 Ruby

  Ruby library for improved puts debugging, automatically displaying bonus useful information such as source line number and source code.

My main hiccup.. is that it seems I MUSTcommit my library to github.com, in order to then get examples/.. to import it. I can't just use relative paths on imports.. which I am OK With if it just worked. But examples/... is outside of internal/ so anything in examples cant import internal/ fine.. but ALSO I can't seem to get pkg/public/.. to import anything in internal/.. and that whole structure just confuses me because I constantly get compile issues that take me hours to figure out and eventually I just have no internal/ and everything is just in pkg/... which defeats the purpose of your structure. :(

• godevcontainer

  8 245 7.8 Dockerfile

  Golang development container for Visual Studio Code Remote Containers Development

If you have Docker installed and use VScode, you could try https://github.com/qdm12/godevcontainer which sets up your dev environment in a container so it's more reproducible.

• ss-server

  2 17 7.6 Go

  Shadowsocks server to use with Docker and to integrate in other Go programs

A working example I have in mind is github.com/qdm12/ss-server if that can help.
