sniffle

What a name right? When creating this repo Github showed.

Great repository names are short and memorable. Need inspiration? How about shiny-sniffle?

And that cracked me up, so I chose sniffle. What the heck right?

What is it?

It is a set of routines I end up rewriting or grabbing from other code on my internal server.

Why?

I have never made a public module before and wanted to give it a shot and see what happens.

What is there?

• Hashing functions.
  • Return the MD5, SHA256 or SHA512 of a file.
  • Return the MD5, SHA256 or SHA512 of a string.
• JSON functions - this is the big one for me. I use JSON a lot!
  • write a slice of a struct or a struct to a file
  • write a slice of a struct or a struct to a string
  • read a file into a slice of a struct or a struct
  • read a string into a slive of a struct or a struct
• CPU and system functions.
  • uses on go packages only
  • gets CPU cores and type
  • gets os and pid
  • gets Go version and number of go routines.
  • More functions will be added over time.
• String
  • Left justify a string padding out to a set width.
  • Right justify a string with padding to a set width.
  • Center a string with padding, optional padding on the right.
  • Split lines at width and/or word boundry.

Why in the world did you do this.

Well, as I said, it's stuff I use over and over again. We all know there are 100 different ways to do something in Go and this is just my way. 🍺

Contribs?

Sure, if they only require the standard Go library. Let's do it.

Formatting

Clarity over cleverness!

Conduct

Treat this as if your grandma is in the room. Keep it civil.
