Golang-project architecture

Defining the good golang architecture

#Journey This project is for trying to define the better architecture for golang project. I strongly believe this "Any fool can write code that a computer can understand. Good programmers write code that humans can understand" -Martin Fowler. statement and do the work in same passion. So I have added comments describing my code wherever possible.

#Getting Started Fork and clone the repository.

#Database connection Run MongoDB locally or run through service and add MongoDB connection string config/keys.json file

Example: under config/keys.json

{
 "development": {
    "mongoDBConnection": "mongodb://localhost"
  }  
}

run

go run main.go

Note: Import golang vendors if required.

#Architecture

app
   api
   controllers
   models
   microservices
   helpers
   validations
config
databases
main.go

##api api package contains all the REST API routes where validations will be done in validations package with same file name and same function names as in api package. This validations will be done through MIDDLEWARE concept. It is simple to take the request,validate,pass params to controllers

##controllers api routes will call the controllers where file name and function names are same as api package. This is the main center where function logic will be done like calling to microservices ,for loops ,connecting third parties etc.

##models models are simply table models and functions to query and fetch from database. This layer is simply connected to database and do all functions. It does not have any controller logics. It is simply for take query params from controllers and query database and return response.

##microservices microservices are for third party services like amazon,sockets,mailchimp, some background cron jobs etc.

##helpers
helpers are simply utility functions for environment variables, password encryptions,jwt token.

##validations All route validations will be done here as a middleware to routes. so the routes will be CLEAN and SIMPLE.

##config config folder will contain keys.jso, push notification certificates file etc.

##databases
databases will have connection to databases. Can also write functionalitites like indexing etc when server starts.

##main.go main.go is the main file where everything will be connected and starts running server.

#REST Routes ##Register User POST->user/register

 {
  "email":"bathula@gmail.com",
  "password":"dlf"  
}

##Login User POST->user/login

{
  "email":"bathula@gmail.com",
  "password":"dlf"
 
}

##Love ❤️ to hear feedback from you RT Bathula-weirdo,coffee lover battu.network@gmail.com
