What is a Golang map? Why is it useful? How does it compare to a slice? How do you declare a map? How do you initialize a map in Go? Fear not; all these questions are answered in this friendly introduction to one of Go’s most powerful features. Call ’em what you like—hashes, dictionaries, associative […]
Structured logging involves producing log records in a well-defined format (usually JSON), which adds a level of organization and consistency to application logs, making them easier to process. Such log records are composed of key-value pairs that capture relevant contextual information about the event being logged, such as the severity level, timestamp, source code location, […]
The Framework In my exploration of Golang, I wanted to take a deeper dive into some areas that I found interesting about the language. Though conceptually similar to the way other languages handle concurrency, I didn’t have much production-level knowledge surrounding goroutines and concurrency. As an engineer, I have the compulsion to pull things apart […]
Go’s defer keyword is a powerful tool that allows you to specify a function call to be executed later, usually after the surrounding function has returned. Although it may seem like a simple concept, the defer keyword can be used in several advanced ways to improve the efficiency and reliability of your Go code. This […]
A new Golang hash table based on SwissTable that is faster and uses less memory than Golang’s built-in map. We’ll cover the motivation, design and implementation of this new package and give you some reasons to try it. This blog is part of our deep-dive series on the Go programming language. Past iterations include posts about concurrency, “inheritance”, and managing […]
