This is a collection of packages which I use across many of my personal projects.
Styleguide
Here are general guidelines I use when making decisions about how code in this repo should be written. Most of the guidelines I have come up with myself have to do with package design, since packages are the only thing which have any rigidity and therefore need any rigid rules.
Everything here are guidelines, not actual rules.
-
gofmt -s
-
Package names may be abbreviations of a concept, but types, functions, and methods should all be full words.
-
When deciding if a package should initialize a struct as a value or pointer, a good rule is: If it's used as an immutable value it should be a value, otherwise it's a pointer. Even if the immutable value implementation has internal caching, locks, etc..., that can be hidden as pointers inside the struct, but the struct itself can remain a value type.
-
A function which takes in a
context.Context
and returns a modified copy of that samecontext.Context
should have a name prefixed withWith
, e.g.WithValue
orWithLogger
. Exceptions likeAnnotate
do exist.
