lib-go

A library of reusable code for my personal Go projects.

💡 Motivation

When creating Go projects, there are some code blocks and keep repeating in every project. Ex: Logging, glue code, utilities, etc.

The purpose of this repo, is to provide a personal library of that shared code, so I stop having to repeat it in all the my projects.

📋 What is included

• Logger
• Tracing Setup with for OpenTelemetry
• Health checks
• Database and Migrations
• Misc utils to work with Pointers, time and more

📦 Dependencies

One of the great features of Go is it´s rich standard library. This library tries to use standard library functions (Ex: net/http) to make it compatible with different projects and reduce the number of external dependencies.

Still, this is an opinionated library and some abstractions requires external dependencies. (Ex: zap for logging).
