What is a garage? It is place where we store many useful tools which may be needed in the future. And this framework like a garage. It contains many useful tools/things for fast creating microservice with http-servers, swagger, different databases, message brokers, metrics, logger.

For fast creating simple microservices, without designing architecture, with simple config.

go-garage supports:

• databases:
  • postgresql (with migrations based on pressly/goose)
  • clickhouse (with migrations based on pressly/goose)
  • mongodb
  • dbgraph
• message broker:
  • rabbitmq with autoreconect on fail connection
• caches:
  • redis
• opcua:
  • gopcua (gopcua/opcua)[https://github.com/gopcua/opcua]
• metrics (each may be extended in user service):
  • alive handler
  • ready handler (includes communicate with databases and cache)
  • prometheus metrics (includes communicate with databases and cache, current cache size, database metrics from sql.DBStats)
• config parser based on vrischmann/envconfig
• http servers (with swagger):
  • router (labstack/echo)(github.com/labstack/echo)
• logger based (rs/zerolog)[github.com/rs/zerolog]
• dictributed mutex:
  • based on postgresql
  • based on redis
• miniorm for popular actions on the database (simple CRUD)
• service meta informations
• utils for strings (also email, phones) and time
• null types (nullmeta, nullstring, nulltime)

In common case enough few simple steps:

• create config
• fill config from envs
• pass config to provider constructor
• start provider
• shutdown provider Also you can get a metrics and handlers for checking that provider alive and ready.
  Consider an example based on a PostgreSQL provider

go-garage uses the github.com/vrischmann/envconfig for filling the config envs. But go-garage allows to set a default values for config.

type Config struct {
	DB          *pq.Config
}

func NewConfig() (*Config, error) {
	c := &Config{
		DB: &pq.Config{
			DSN: "postgres://postgres:secret@postgres:5432/test",
			Migrate: &migrations.Config{
				Directory: "/internal/db/migrations/pg",
				Action:    "up",
			},
		},
	}

	if err := envconfig.Init(c); err != nil {
		return nil, errors.Wrap(err, "init config")
	}

	return c, nil
}

// Create connection to PostgreSQL
pqEnity, err := pq.NewEnity(ctx, "garage_pq", config.DB)
if err != nil {
	return errors.Wrap(err, "pq new enity")
}

if err := pqEnity.Start(ctx, errGroup); err != nil {
	return errors.Wrap(err, "start")
}

if err := pqEnity.Shutdown(ctx); err != nil {
	return errors.Wrap(err, "shutdown")
}

pqEnity.GetMetrics() // get metrics
pqEnity.GetAliveHandlers() // alive handlers
pqEnity.GetReadyHandlers() // ready handlers
