Common Go Tools

Shared components we found ourselves building time and time again, so we collected them in one place!

• config

  Enables strongly typed config throughout your application. Offers a way to represent config in go structs. takes care of parsing, validating and watching for changes on config.

• cli/pflags

  Tool to generate a pflags for all fields in a given struct.

To create a new release, follow these steps:

• Create a PR with your changes.

• [Optional] Create an alpha tag on your branch and push that.

  • First get existing tags git describe --abbrev=0 --tags

  • Figure out the next alpha version (e.g. if tag is v1.2.3 then you should create a v1.2.4-alpha.0 tag)

  • Create a tag git tag v1.2.4-alpha.0

  • Push tag git push --tags

• Merge your changes and checkout master branch git checkout master && git pull

• Bump version tag and push to branch.

  • First get existing tags git describe --abbrev=0 --tags

  • Figure out the next release version (e.g. if tag is v1.2.3 then you should create a v1.2.4 tag or v1.3.0 or a v2.0.0 depending on what has changed. Refer to Semantic Versioning for information about when to bump each)

  • Create a tag git tag v1.2.4
