Description

Service is a project that provides a starter-kit for a REST based web service. It provides best practices around Go web services using POD architecture and design. It contains the following features:

  • Minimal application web framework.
  • Middleware integration.
  • Database support using MongoDB.
  • CRUD based pattern.
  • Distributed logging and tracing.
  • Testing patterns.
  • User authentication.
  • POD architecture with sidecars for metrics and tracing.
  • Use of Docker, Docker Compose, and Makefiles.
  • Vendoring dependencies with Modules, requires Go 1.11.
  • Deployment to Azure using ACI.

Local Installation

This project contains three services and uses 3rd party services such as MongoDB and Zipkin. Docker is required to run this software on your local machine.

Go Modules

This project is using Go Module support starting with go1.11. By default modules are set to auto. If you have changed this, please make sure it is reset back to auto for this project.

export GO111MODULE=auto

We are using the tidy and vendor commands to maintain the dependencies and make sure the project can create reproducible builds.

go mod tidy
go mod vendor

Getting the project

You can use the traditional go get command to download this project into your configured GOPATH.

$ go get -u github.com/ardanlabs/service

Installing Docker

Docker is a critical component to managing and running this project. It kills me to just send you to the Docker installation page but it's all I got for now.

https://docs.docker.com/install/

If you are having problems installing docker reach out or jump on Gopher Slack for help.

Running The Project

All the source code, including any dependencies, have been vendored into the project. There is a single dockerfile for each service and a docker-compose file that knows how to run all the services.

A makefile has also been provide to make building, running and testing the software easier.

Building the project

Navigate to the root of the project and use the makefile to build all of the services.

$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/ardanlabs/service
$ make all

Running the project

Navigate to the root of the project and use the makefile to run all of the services.

$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/ardanlabs/service
$ make up

The make up command will leverage Docker Compose to run all the services, including the 3rd party services. The first time to run this command, Docker will download the required images for the 3rd party services.

Default configuration is set which should be valid for most systems. Use the docker-compose.yaml file to configure the services differently is necessary. Email me if you have issues or questions.

Stopping the project

You can hit C in the terminal window running make up. Once that shutdown sequence is complete, it is important to run the make down command.

$ <ctrl>C
$ make down

Running make down will properly stop and terminate the Docker Compose session.

About The Project

The service provides record keeping for someone running a multi-family garage sale. Authenticated users can maintain a list of products for sale, record transactions as items are sold, and generate payout amounts for each family.

The service uses the following models:

What's Next

We are in the process of writing more documentation about this code. Classes are being finalized as part of the Ultimate series.
