go-app

A very opinionated app with life cycle and graceful shutdown.

Quickstart

Here is an example of a program that does nothing but it compiles and runs with all app features:

package main

import (
	"context"

	"github.com/arquivei/go-app"
)

var (
	version = "v0.0.0-dev"
	cfg     struct {
		app.Config
	}
)

func main() {
	defer app.Recover()
	app.Bootstrap(version, &cfg)
	app.RunAndWait(func(ctx context.Context) error {
		<-ctx.Done()
		return ctx.Err()
	})
}

Check all available options with go run ./ -h

Supported Fields:
FIELD                             FLAG                               ENV                               DEFAULT
-----                             -----                              -----                             -------
App.Log.Level                     -app-log-level                     APP_LOG_LEVEL                     info
App.Log.Human                     -app-log-human                     APP_LOG_HUMAN
App.AdminServer.Enabled           -app-adminserver-enabled           APP_ADMINSERVER_ENABLED           true
App.AdminServer.Addr              -app-adminserver-addr              APP_ADMINSERVER_ADDR              localhost:9000
App.AdminServer.With.DebugURLs    -app-adminserver-with-debugurls    APP_ADMINSERVER_WITH_DEBUGURLS    true
App.AdminServer.With.Metrics      -app-adminserver-with-metrics      APP_ADMINSERVER_WITH_METRICS      true
App.AdminServer.With.Probes       -app-adminserver-with-probes       APP_ADMINSERVER_WITH_PROBES       true
App.Shutdown.GracePeriod          -app-shutdown-graceperiod          APP_SHUTDOWN_GRACEPERIOD          3s
App.Shutdown.Timeout              -app-shutdown-timeout              APP_SHUTDOWN_TIMEOUT              5s

There is a special option to print out the default configuration in env or yaml format: go run . -app-config-output=env.

APP_LOG_LEVEL=info
APP_LOG_HUMAN=
APP_ADMINSERVER_ENABLED=true
APP_ADMINSERVER_ADDR=localhost:9000
APP_ADMINSERVER_WITH_DEBUGURLS=true
APP_ADMINSERVER_WITH_METRICS=true
APP_ADMINSERVER_WITH_PROBES=true
APP_SHUTDOWN_GRACEPERIOD=3s
APP_SHUTDOWN_TIMEOUT=5s
APP_CONFIG_OUTPUT=

Version can be overwritten in compile time using -ldflags:

-ldflags="-X main.version=v0.0.1"
