God I wish I had your mindset... you just stick to whatever works best for you.. I always look around and doubt my choices, thinking there is a better way of doing it, and then getting stuck on simple things.

I have been searching for a good structure for my go backend that I have for my website, and you decided to post this. Thank you!

Thank you so much for these videos Anthony.

Thanks for sharing Anthony! Well explained and detailed.

Thank you for great video. I really like your approach with simplicity. I'm just learning Go for my hobby projects. And you are helping me so much. (Btw at work we are using C#)

Your videos are priceless as an example of "practical developer approach"

Please, record a video about unit tests in golang, the best practices, how to mock things, how to achieve 100% coverage when we have things like database or external calls. Which kind of tests (unit, integration, e2e, etc.) real projects used to write in golang's universe? It's a content that is hard to find in a unique video. Thanks for your great job.

Consider the case of testing log writes to standard output vs writes to a file. Unit testing ensures the output from the logger is what I expect whereas integration tests ensure the log line was written. These illustrate fundamentally different testing scenarios. I don't think mocks are useful in unit testing. Tests written in Go are for Go code. Although it might be tempting to use Go's testing framework for integration tests; writing tests concerning external systems is non-trivial because, the scope of the test expands combinatorially to what ever the dependency outputs. If I'm writing tests for my SQL schema, for example, I would write a separate program to test just that and maybe that program would be written in Go!

Hey Anthony. Why do you think most organizational projects prefer clean architecture over hexagonal architecture? If possible, could you provide an example project implementing hexagonal architecture?

Nice initial project structure! Btw, how are you testing business logic inside the pkg folder? Are you using some kind of dependency injection?

Would love to see how/where you deploy all this. Do you do managed db’s and stuff like that for production?

Amazing as always.

You don't need a separate schema between migration and SQLC. I'm using goose for migrations and SQLC supports it out of the box.. 1 directory for migrations which contains the schema changes.

Could you show an example of a microservices structure with Docker/k8s? Just curios how would you do it :)

Is there a link to this project or this project structure? Looks very clean

Wow... blazing amaze, could you please share your start project ?

Hey Anthony, thank you for this video, the way you describe things is just so real if that makes sense. Im new to the Go world and project structure is always a huge mind blocker for me. Do you happen to have a public repo of the above structure? I wanted to go through it more, i really like how clean it is the only thing i dont think i follow is the global db instance. Now i know you said this in video and its just all in how it works for you and your team. I personally only use go for personal projects and i rely on the test files to make sure i dont break as much as i can. That includes the database. I setup tests to confirm that basically im getting data back from the database. Is this still possible with a global database?

I noticed everything is very flat. Im used to having subfolders in my project coming from C#. It's a bit harder to do in Go because namespaces are not a thing. So should it be flat and end up with a ton of files in a module, as well as many modules or would you say its ok to have nested folders?

@anthonygg_

The problem in Go with a lot of nested folders is circular dependencies.

So all the types are public? not a little bit of encapsulation with some information hiding? like smart creators to make sure the structs are always in a valid state? Some rich domain then at least? and when you want use some inverse dependency injection and clean architecture? I think there must be a smart way to implement all of these best practices with go?

yeah in 04:00 u are right, ppl very often tend to overcode, over complicate everything just because they think its how it must be done, "book way". and spend 1 week on doing smth that for business does not matter. They need to understand its a business, and if you spend a lot of time just because you want smth make 5ms faster, try to tell the business how much money it cost for them to gain 5ms faster api call for some profile update etc. ;)

I have an idea for a new method of digital Steganography whereby a lager image can be hidden in a smaller one without changing the filesize or quality of the host image. Will Golang work better to build this app in Windows, or should I battle it out with JS and html? . I'm totally new to programming so it feels like I've just thrown myself into the deep end.... lol

Can you post something related to sql databases? Generators, creating records, relations etc

Also, on the performance argument: As you said, performance doesn't matter (most of the time). If performance is your bottleneck (as in really being an issue) you probably did something horribly wrong when deploying your app. No framework swap is going to change that. I mean, many people (and also big companies) use python, one of the slowest languages known. Because you save a lot of money when developing the app and if performance is an issue you just throw the money you saved onto your deployment infrastructure to make it work.

dont you use DTOs in go lang backend development?

Drop the plenum naming in packages and the infamous util package. This is according to the Golang docs.

You're right, but in the specific context of "which framework should I use" which is what he was talking about, generally each framework isn't going to make one of those mistakes; it will still be up to you the developer to use them wisely with good algorithms and queries.

He was talking about the relative performance of different web frameworks. He is correct.

I highly disagree with global variables, I believe creating a singleton and passing it as a parameter is a better choice. I agree with you having a dedicated folder for queries, and data related stuff, but I would call that folder repository or sth like that, data is a bit too general, just my 2 cents.

@anthonygg_

3 ай бұрын

Because we are free.

what means "handlers" if your program works with not only http, but with websockets and kafka? Are these kafka handlers, http or websocket handlers? What if your types are not just structs but full domain models with methods interfaces etc? What if I have a lot of types, finding a type will become a problem. For a man who just got into the codebase there are no clear difference between "data" and "types". Util folder have to probably be split up into encryptuitl etc. I don't think this is a scalable project structure. However I agree that going with DDD or hex arch is a bad idea, your structure works PERFECTLY good for small projects. But I personally find splitting program into packages (multiple "feature-sliced" packages which have their own types, data, and util) and being explicit about your naming (types, util, handlers are pretty vague) is most important thing, because being vague and putting similar functionality in different places is the thing that makes project structure unscalable.

Data is where your data belongs to. For example seed data. Model is where you save what model/shape your data has. So yeah.. that I think was the original idea behing that common sense project layout Nowadays your data is stored on S3 or whatever.. but if we are splitting hairs, why not putting your db and migrations into data folder as well? 😅 its data too 😮😂
