💡 This Skill requires go, templates, docker, prometheus, grafana, loki, tempo, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the need for a comprehensive setup for creating a Go API service, eliminating the manual process of creating boilerplate code, managing dependencies, and setting up observability tools.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated Project Structure: Generates a complete project structure with predefined directories and files for a typical Go API service.
  • Customizable Templates: Utilizes templates for various components like Docker Compose files, configuration files, and more.
  • Observability Integration: Provides tools and configurations for Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, and Tempo for monitoring and logging.

Quick Start

Generate a new Go API service with the name 'user-service' at the module path 'github.com/myorg/myservice'.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a Go API service project with boilerplate and observability tools?

To generate a Go API service, you use automated templates to create the project structure, configuration files, and Docker Compose setups. This eliminates manual boilerplate creation and instantly configures observability tools for the new service.

What observability tools are included when setting up a new Go API project?

Setting up a new Go API project includes configurations for Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, and Tempo. These observability tools provide integrated metrics monitoring, logging, and tracing for your service without requiring manual configuration.

Do I need Go and Docker installed to scaffold an API service with integrated monitoring?

Yes, you need Go and Docker installed to scaffold the API service and manage the observability containers. The project generation relies on Go for the service environment and Docker Compose for deploying the monitoring stack.

What's the best way to eliminate manual boilerplate setup for a Go API service?

The best way to eliminate manual boilerplate setup is using an automated project generation template. It predefined directories, configuration files, and Docker Compose setups, allowing you to quickly stand up a new Go API service without manual file creation.

Can I customize the Docker Compose and configuration files when generating a Go API service?

Yes, you can customize the Docker Compose and configuration files because the generation process utilizes customizable templates. This allows you to adapt the predefined project structure and observability configurations to fit your specific Go API service requirements.

When should I use an automated Go API project generator instead of manual setup?

You should use an automated Go API project generator when you need to quickly stand up a new service and manage observability without manual setup. It is ideal for scenarios requiring comprehensive project structures with integrated Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, and Tempo monitoring.
