• docs/: contains Swagger documentation files generated by swaggo
• migrations/: contains seeds and SQL migration files
  • schemas/: contains DB schema migration files
  • seed/: contains seed files which will initialize DB with sets of dummy data
  • test-seed/: also seed files but for test DB
• pkg/: contains core source code of service
  • config/: contains configs for application
  • handler/: handling API requests
  • logger/: logging initial and functional methods
  • model/: DB model structs
  • mw/: middleware
  • request/: API request models
  • routes/: API routing (see gin)
  • service/: contains interaction with external services (google API, etc.)
  • store/: data access layers, contains DB CRUD operations (see gorm)
  • utils/: utility methods
  • view/: API view models

Sample usecases

1. Create new API

• Check out file /pkg/routes/v1.go and explore the code flow to see how to create and handle an API
• Remember to annotate handler functions with swaggo. Then run make gen-swagger to generate Swagger documentations

2. New DB migration

Check out .sql files under /migrations to write a valid schema migration / seed file

• To apply new migration files, run make migrate-up
• To apply seed files, run make seed-db
• To apply new migration files for test DB, run make migrate-test

Note: remember to run these 2 every time you pulling new code

make migrate-up
make migrate-test

3. DB repositories

Check out dirs under /pkg/store

4. New API Implementation Steps

• Add the new route to /pkg/routes/v1.go
  • Check if the new route is in a new group or an existing one
    • Implement interface IHandler in pkg/handler/[name]/interface.go
    • Implement handling functions that takes a *gin.Context in pkg/handler/[name]/[name].go
    • Add Swagger doc to handler
    • Add the sub handler to the main handler in pkg/handler/handler.go
  • Check if the new route needs authentication
  • Check if the new route needs authorization (permission)
    • If a new permission is needed then define it in pkg/model/permissions.go
• Add the new table
  • Create new migration by make migrate-new
  • Add seed file to migrations/seed
  • Include the new seed file in migrations/seed/seed.sql
  • Check if existing seed data needs modification (roles.sql, permisions.sql, etc.)
  • Implement the model in pkg/model
  • After the model is defined, implement the CRUD functions in pkg/store
    • Implement interface IStore in pkg/store/[name]/interface.go
    • Implement the details in pkg/store/[name]/[name].go
    • Add the sub store to the main store in pkg/store/store.go
• Glue the implemented handler and the implemented store
