Architecture

GoEcosystem Architecture

This document outlines the overall architecture and design principles for GoEcosystem projects.

Repository Structure

GoEcosystem is organized into several repository categories:

  1. Templates
    • go-template: Standard Go application template
    • go-library-template: Template for Go libraries
  2. Core Infrastructure
    • go-utils: Shared utilities
    • go-docs: Organization-wide documentation
  3. Applications
    • webscraper: Web scraping application
    • Other application repositories
  4. Libraries
    • Various libraries for specific functionality

Standard Project Structure

All Go projects follow this structure:

.
├── cmd/                # Application entrypoints 
├── internal/           # Private code
├── pkg/                # Public libraries
├── docs/               # Documentation
├── test/               # Integration tests
├── go.mod              # Go module file
├── LICENSE             # MIT License
└── README.md           # Project documentation

Dependency Management

  • All projects use Go modules
  • Dependencies are pinned to specific versions
  • Shared code is extracted to separate repositories

Continuous Integration

All repositories use:

  • GitHub Actions for testing and linting
  • Branch protection rules for main
  • Pull request reviews

Design Principles

  1. Simplicity: Keep code simple and maintainable
  2. Modularity: Create small, focused packages
  3. Testability: Design for testability
  4. Documentation: Document all exported APIs
  5. Reusability: Extract common functionality to shared libraries
