Toolkit

Introduction

The Toolkit is a collection of Go-specific packages providing idiomatic solutions for common tasks encountered in Go-based software development. It aims to streamline your workflow, enhance code quality, and promote consistency across Go projects. This README focuses on the Toolkit, detailing its contents, usage, and contribution guidelines.

Key Features

• Idiomatic Go: Designed with best practices and conventions in mind, ensuring seamless integration with your existing Go codebase.
• Modular Structure: Organized into distinct packages, each addressing a specific aspect of Go development, allowing you to pick and choose the components you need.
• Well-Documented APIs: Comprehensive documentation, including package-level documentation, function comments, and usage examples, to facilitate quick understanding and adoption.
• Robust Testing: Rigorous unit tests and integration tests accompany each package, ensuring stability, reliability, and maintainability.
• Open Source & Community-Driven: The Toolkit is open-source under a permissive license, encouraging community contributions, bug reports, and feature requests.

Available Packages

The Toolkit currently offers the following packages:

1. errors: Enhanced error handling utilities, such as error wrapping, context propagation, and error inspection.
2. httpclient: A configurable and extensible HTTP client with support for timeouts, retries, and middleware chaining.
3. jsonutil: Convenient functions for JSON encoding, decoding, and manipulation, including custom JSON marshalers/unmarshalers and error handling improvements.
4. concurrency: Tools for managing concurrent tasks, synchronization primitives, and thread-safe data structures.
5. config: Simplified configuration management, supporting various file formats and environment variable integration.
6. logging: A flexible logging framework with customizable log levels, formatters, and integrations with popular logging backends.

Getting Started

To incorporate the Toolkit into your project, follow these steps:

1. Add the dependency: Add the Toolkit as a dependency in your go.mod file, specifying the latest version:

go get github.com/origadmin/toolkit@vX.Y.Z

Replace vX.Y.Z with the desired version or latest to fetch the most recent release.

1. Import required packages: In your Go source files, import the necessary packages from the Toolkit:

import (
"github.com/origadmin/toolkit/errors"
"github.com/origadmin/toolkit/httpclient"
"github.com/origadmin/toolkit/jsonutil"
"github.com/origadmin/toolkit/concurrency"
"github.com/origadmin/toolkit/config"
"github.com/origadmin/toolkit/logging"
)

1. Use the toolkit components: Refer to the package documentation and examples to learn how to utilize the toolkit components in your code. You can access the documentation by running godoc locally or visiting the package documentation hosted on godoc.org.
