This project demonstrates the development of a RESTful API service using the Go programming language. It aims to provide a solid foundation for building your own APIs, adhering to common patterns and conventions.
- RESTful API design following best practices (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE for CRUD operations)
- Modular code structure with clear separation of concerns (handlers, models, database access, etc.)
- Built-in unit tests for core functionalities
Prerequisites:
Go version 1.x or later (check with go version) A code editor or IDE with Go support
Install dependencies:
go mod tidy
Run the API:
go run ./cmd/api-serverThis will start the API server on port 8080 by default (adjust the port if needed).
POST /news - Create a new news resource GET /news - Retrieve a list of all news GET /news/:id - Get details of a specific news by ID PUT /news/:id - Update an existing news DELETE /news/:id - Delete a news
Unit tests are crucial for ensuring code quality. You can run your tests with:
