Golang News, Tutorials, Go Libraries and Golang Jobs
The author has never been a fan of dynamic languages in general and Python in particular. But working a lot with Ansible he feels that sometimes an ansible role doesn’t cut it, and it would be better to write a module. I’ve recently started playing around with Golang, and I feel it could potentially be utilized for such […]
What’s the role of Golang in a universe where Rust exists? Imagine you’re a developer who mainly works with Golang. You go to an event and, while chatting with some people, you decide to share with them the news that you wrote a small tool that does something. You claim that since you wrote it in […]
Uber has adopted Golang (Go for short) as a primary programming language for developing microservices. Our Golang monorepo consists of about 50 million lines of code (and growing) and contains approximately 2,100 unique Golang services (and growing). Go makes concurrency a first-class citizen; prefixing function calls with the go keyword runs the call asynchronously. These asynchronous function calls in […]
In this tutorial, you will learn how to build a web scraper with Golang and Colly. Sometimes some things just don’t have an API. In those kinds of cases, you can always just write a little web scraper to help you get the data you need. The author going to be working with Golang and […]
With the breakthrough of microservices in today’s world, the increasing number of users, requests, and demands have made this job very difficult. In the cloud-based microservices era, our services are constantly changing due to all kinds of different situations such as autoscaling, failures, and upgrades. As a result of these changes, they continuously get their new […]
In this article, the author going to talk about how to build concurrent programs combining select, goroutines, and channels in Golang. I’d recommend reading these two articles first to get familiar with the concepts of concurrency, channels, and goroutines. Concurrency in Golang, Goroutines, and Channels Explained File Processing Using Concurrency With GoLang Golang Select Statement […]
A Go struct is a typed collection of fields, useful for grouping data into records. This allows all the data relating to one entity to be neatly encapsulated in one lightweight type definition, behavior can then be implemented by defining functions on the struct type. This Golang blog post tries to explain how we can […]
In Golang, you can use fixed-size datasets like arrays as well as dynamic-size datasets like slices. But have you ever wondered how the performance of your application changes when you choose one over the other? Today, we’ll explore both variants and find out which is faster and how big the difference is. As a small […]
The lack of a standard causes many new Gophers to question the best way to structure a project, A question the author still sees to this today. This article will share how the author structure Golang Top Projects for backend services, similar but slightly different from how I structure Command-Line Projects. While this article reiterates […]
Learn how to create a generic struct to make the most of this feature Since Go 1.18, we finally have the power of generics. In this post, we can learn from a great example of how to create structs using generics with Go. Read the full post about Golang Generics and Structs
