gop

A simple Go project generator that creates projects from templates.

Installation

go install github.com/2xhamzeh/gop@latest

Usage

1. Create and enter your project directory:

   mkdir my-project && cd my-project
   

2. Generate project from template:

   gop [template-name] [module-name]
   

Available Templates

• empty - Empty project
• rest - REST API with authentication, postgreSQL, Docker files and more

REST

The rest template is currently the largest template provided by this tool. It has:

• docker images and docker compose setup
• PostgreSQL
• database migrations
• JWT token authentication
• user setup
• simple validator
• configuration setup using environmental variables
• chi router
• middlewares
• central logging for requests and errors with request ID
• domain errors setup and conversion of domain errors to http errors on response
• standard response format and json helpers
• context flow
• dependency injection
• Handler > Service > Repository
• and more...

Unlike other tools, this is not meant to be a framework. This is just a project template you can use, modify or reference while developing a REST API. (still being developed)
