Example Go service using go-swagger and The Clean Architecture

PkgGoDev Go Report Card CI/CD CircleCI Coverage Status Project Layout Release

This project shows an example of how to use go-swagger accordingly to Uncle Bob's "Clean Architecture".

Also it includes go-swagger JSON Schema support cheatsheet, which list all validations/annotations for JSON body actually implemented by go-swagger v0.18.0.

Overview

The Clean Architecture

The Clean Architecture

It's not a complete example of The Clean Architecture itself (business-logic of this example is too trivial, so "Use Cases" layer in package app embeds "Entities" layer), but it does show the most relevant part: how to create "API Controller" layer in package srv/openapi between code auto-generated by go-swagger and "Use Cases" layer in package app. Also it includes "DB Gateway" layer in packages dal/memory (provided trivial in-memory implementation is "DB" and "Gateway" layers at once) and dal/mysql (just "Gateway" layer).

The hexagonal architecture, or ports and adapters architecture

It may be even easier to understand implemented architecture as "ports and adapters":

  • "ports" are defined as interfaces in app/app.go - they make it possible to easily test business-logic in app without any external dependencies by mocking all these interfaces.
  • "adapters" are implemented in srv/* (serve project APIs), dal/* (access DB) and svc/* (use external services) packages - they can't be tested that easy, so they should be as thin and straightforward as possible and try hard to do nothing than convert ("adapt") data between format used by external world and our business-logic (package app).

Structure of Go packages

  • api/* - definitions of own and 3rd-party (in api/ext-*) APIs/protocols and related auto-generated code
  • cmd/* - main application(s)
  • internal/config - configuration(s) (default values, env, flags) for application(s) subcommands and tests
  • internal/app - define interfaces ("ports") and implements business-logic
  • internal/srv/* - adapters for served APIs/UI
  • internal/dal/* - adapters for data storage
  • internal/migrations/* - DB migrations (in both SQL and Go)
  • internal/svc/* - adapters for accessing external services
  • pkg/* - helper packages, not related to architecture and business-logic (may be later moved to own modules and/or replaced by external dependencies), e.g.:
    • pkg/def/ - project-wide defaults

Features

  • Project structure (mostly) follows Standard Go Project Layout.
  • Strict but convenient golangci-lint configuration.
  • Easily testable code (thanks to The Clean Architecture).
  • Avoids (and resists to) using global objects (to make it possible to embed such microservices into modular monolith).
  • CLI subcommands support using cobra.
  • Graceful shutdown support.
  • Configuration defaults can be overwritten by env vars and flags.
  • CORS support, so you can play with API using Swagger Editor tool.
  • Example go-swagger authentication and authorization.
  • Example DAL (data access layer):
    • MySQL 5.6 (strictest SQL mode).
  • Example tests, both unit and integration.
  • Production logging using structlog.
  • Production metrics using Prometheus.
  • Docker and docker-compose support.
  • Smart test coverage report, with optional support for coveralls.io.
  • Linters for Dockerfile and shell scripts.
  • CI/CD setup for GitHub Actions and CircleCI.

Development

Requirements

Setup

  1. After cloning the repo copy env.sh.dist to env.sh.
  2. Review env.sh and update for your system as needed.
  3. It's recommended to add shell alias alias dc="if test -f env.sh; then source env.sh; fi && docker-compose" and then run dc instead of docker-compose - this way you won't have to run source env.sh after changing it.

Usage

To develop this project you'll need only standard tools: go generate, go test, go build, docker build. Provided scripts are for convenience only.

  • Always load env.sh in every terminal used to run any project-related commands (including go test): source env.sh.
    • When env.sh.dist change (e.g. by git pull) next run of source env.sh will fail and remind you to manually update env.sh to match current env.sh.dist.
  • go generate ./... - do not forget to run after making changes related to auto-generated code
  • go test ./... - test project (excluding integration tests), fast
  • ./scripts/test - thoroughly test project, slow
  • ./scripts/test-ci-circle - run tests locally like CircleCI will do
  • ./scripts/cover - analyse and show coverage
  • ./scripts/build - build docker image and binaries in bin/
    • Then use mentioned above dc (or docker-compose) to run and control the project.
    • Access project at host/port(s) defined in env.sh.

Cheatsheet

dc up -d --remove-orphans               # (re)start all project's services
dc logs -f -t                           # view logs of all services
dc logs -f SERVICENAME                  # view logs of some service
dc ps                                   # status of all services
dc restart SERVICENAME
dc exec SERVICENAME COMMAND             # run command in given container
dc stop && dc rm -f                     # stop the project
docker volume rm PROJECT_SERVICENAME    # remove some service's data

It's recommended to avoid docker-compose down - this command will also remove docker's network for the project, and next dc up -d will create a new network… repeat this many enough times and docker will exhaust available networks, then you'll have to restart docker service or reboot.
