Go-Bookstore

This GitHub repo has my attempt to build simple REST APIs for practicing go.

Introduction

The project contains simple APIs for adding, editting, retrieving and deleting books.

This is used for educational and practicing purpose to learn design principals, Go lang and other DevOps toolchain like Docker.

Design

The code base follows Hexagonal Architecture and Domain-Driven Design principals, where the code is broken down to:

• Domain

  • Model
  • Service

• Ports

• Adapters

APIs:

Book

• Get all books:

  • URL : /book

  • Method : GET

• Add book:

  • URL : /book

  • Method : POST

  • Data constraints : { "name": 'test',author" : 'test', "publication": 'test' }

• Get book:

  • URL : /book/[id]

  • Method : GET

• Update book:

  • URL : /book/[id]

  • Method : PUT

  • Data constraints : { "name": 'test',author" : 'test', "publication": 'test' }

• Delete book:

  • URL : /book/[id]

  • Method : DELETE

Build and Run

• Install Go and Mysql

• Clone the repo on your machine

• Update the database USERNAME, PASS and DATABASE constants in main.go file

• Run

  • From root of the repo on your terminal run the following command

  go run main.go
  

  • (Optional) Use docker compose
    • Update the docker-compose.yml MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD and MYSQL_DATABASE fields

  docker compose build
  docker compose up
  

To be done:

• Unit tests
• Config files
• Authentication
