Ecommerce API

This is not a serious project by any means, just experimenting with golang to get the best structures out of it; can be used as a template for further rest api developments as well.

Features

  • pluggable database implementation.
  • REST API written with chi router.
  • Stateful token authentication.
  • Automatic database migrations on deployment.
  • PostgresSQL database provider.
  • integration tests using dockertest.
  • swagger UI.
  • Dockerized.

How to run locally

this application do not offer a auto migrations in every single run as it's considered bad practice, in order to run migrartions a binary of goose should be build. to run migrations locally:

$ make migrate
$ ./migrate up

to start the application on a port specified by ADDRESS in .env file (by default :8080) if there's a make command:

$ make run

note: run target by default starts the application using -race flag so it might be a little slower; to use this application without any overhead you can run the following code snippet.

if there's no make command:

go run ./cmd/ecommerce

Deploy

personally I have not deployed this api yet. in order to deploy it you have to export the password used by postgres:

export POSTGRES_PASSWORD="whatever"

and eventually:

docker compose up

Roadmap

  • imporve authentication - there's no scope or a admin user concepts.
  • cache products results.
  • write remaining integration tests for postgres.
  • mongodb provider.
  • grpc?
  • frontend?
