go-bits

Some tiny pieces of Go code, extracted from their original applications for reusability. Feel free to add to this.

Packages

• assert contains various assertions for unit tests.
• audittools contains a microframework for establishing a connection to a RabbitMQ server (with sane defaults) and publishing messages to it.
• easypg is a database library for applications that use PostgreSQL. It integrates golang-migrate/migrate for data definition and imports the libpq-based SQL driver.
• errext contains convenience functions for handling and propagating errors.
• gophercloudext contains convenience functions for use with Gophercloud. It is specifically intended as a lightweight replacement for gophercloud/utils with fewer dependencies.
• gopherpolicy integrates Gophercloud with goslo.policy, for OpenStack services that need to validate client tokens and check permissions.
• httpapi contains opinionated base machinery for assembling and exposing an API consisting of HTTP endpoints.
• httpext adds some convenience functions to net/http.
• httptest builds on net/http/httptest to make process-local HTTP requests inside tests as smooth as possible.
• jobloop contains the Job trait, which abstracts over reusable implementations of worker loops.
• liquidapi contains a server runtime and various other utilities for microservices implementing the LIQUID API.
• logg adds some convenience functions to log.
• mock contains basic mocks and test doubles.
• must contains convenience functions for quickly exiting on fatal errors without the need for excessive if err != nil.
• osext contains extensions to the standard library package "os", mostly relating to parsing of environment variables.
• pluggable is a tiny plugin factory library, for constructing different objects implementing a common interface based on a configurable type selector.
• promquery provides a simplified interface for executing Prometheus queries.
• regexpext contains convenience functions for marshalling regexes to and from string values in YAML and JSON documents.
• respondwith contains some helper functions for generating responses in HTTP handlers.
• secrets provides convenience functions for working with auth credentials.
• sqlext contains helper functions for SQL queries that are not specific to PostgreSQL.
• vault contains helper functions to work with HashiCorp Vault.

Tools

The tools subdirectory contains small Go programs.

• release-info extracts release info for a specific version from a changelog file that uses the Keep a changelog format.
