Google Cloud Client Libraries for Go
Google Cloud Client Libraries for Go
The Cloud Client Libraries are the recommended way to access Google Cloud APIs programmatically. The Cloud Client Libraries support accessing Google Cloud services in a way that significantly reduces the boilerplate code you have to write. The libraries provide high-level API abstractions so they're easier to understand. They embrace idioms of the language, work well with the standard library, and integrate better with your codebase. By default, each API will use Google Application Default Credentials for authorization credentials used in calling the API endpoints. This will allow your application to run in many environments without requiring explicit configuration. -

Gocache
Go cache library that brings you multiple ways to manage caches
Guess what is Gocache? a Go cache library. This is an extendable cache library that brings you a lot of features for caching data. Multiple cache stores: actually in memory, redis, or your own custom store. A chain cache: use multiple cache with a priority order (memory then fallback to a redis shared cache for instance) A loadable cache: allow you to call a callback function to put your data back in cache. A metric cache to let you store metrics about your caches usage (hits, miss, set success, set error, ...) A marshaler to automatically marshal/unmarshal your cache values as a struct. Define default values in stores and override them when setting data. Cache invalidation by expiration time and/or using tags. Use of Generics. To begin working with the latest version of gocache, you can import the library in your project. -

Vegeta
HTTP load testing tool and library. It's over 9000!
Vegeta is a versatile HTTP load testing tool built out of a need to drill HTTP services with a constant request rate. It can be used both as a command line utility and a library. You can install Vegeta using the Homebrew package manager on Mac OS X. Both the library and the CLI are versioned with SemVer v2.0.0. After v8.0.0, the two components are versioned separately to better isolate breaking changes to each. CLI releases are tagged with cli/vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH and published on the Github releases page. As for the library, new versions are tagged with both lib/vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH and vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH. The latter tag is required for compatibility with go mod. The JSON format makes integration with programs that produce targets dynamically easier. Each target is one JSON object in its own line. The method and url fields are required. If present, the body field must be base64 encoded. The generated JSON Schema defines the format in detail. -

Interactsh
An OOB interaction gathering server and client library
Interactsh is an open-source tool for detecting out-of-band interactions. It is a tool designed to detect vulnerabilities that cause external interactions. Interactsh Cli client requires go1.17+ to install successfully. interactsh-client with -sf, -session-file flag can be used store/read the current session information from user defined file which is useful to resume the same session to poll the interactions even after the client gets stopped or closed. Running the interactsh-client in verbose mode (v) to see the whole request and response, along with an output file to analyze afterwards. Using the server flag, interactsh-client can be configured to connect with a self-hosted Interactsh server, this flag accepts single or multiple server separated by comma. Default servers are subject to change/rotate/down at any time, thus we recommend using a self-hosted interactsh server if you are experiencing issues with the default server. -

XLSX
Go (golang) library for reading and writing XLSX files
xlsx is a library to simplify reading and writing the XML format used by recent version of Microsoft Excel in Go programs. Version 3.0.0 introduces some more breaking changes in the API. All methods that can return an `xlsx.File` struct now accept zero, one or many `xlsx.FileOption` functions as their final arguments. These can be used to modify the behavior of the resultant struct, in particular they replace the `…WithRowLimit` variants of those methods with the result of calling `xlsx.RowLimit` and they add the ability to define a custom backing store for the spreadsheet data to be held in whilst processing. The full API docs can be viewed using go’s built in documentation tool. -

env
A simple and zero-dependencies library to parse environment variables
Parse environment variables to structs in Go. In Go, it’s dead simple to get the value from an environment variable. If you have a type that is not supported out of the box by the lib, you are able to use (or define) and pass custom parsers (and their associated reflect.Type) to the env.ParseWithFuncs() function. Env supports by default anything that implements the TextUnmarshaler interface. That includes things like time.Time for example. The upside is that depending on the format you need, you don't need to change anything. The downside is that if you do need time in another format, you'll need to create your own type. By default, slice types will split the environment value on ,; you can change this behavior by setting the envSeparator tag. If you set the envExpand tag, environment variables (either in ${var} or $var format) in the string will be replaced according with the actual value of the variable. -

gqlgen
Go generate based graphql server library
gqlgen is a Go library for building GraphQL servers without any fuss. You get to Define your API using the GraphQL Schema Definition Language. You should never see map[string]interface{} here. We generate the boring bits, so you can focus on building your app quickly. Still not convinced enough to use gqlgen? Compare gqlgen with other Go graphql implementations. You need to tell gqlgen that it should only fetch friends if the user requested it. gqlgen will be able to automatically bind to strings or ints for models you have written yourself. gqlgen is a schema-first library, before writing code, you describe your API using the GraphQL Schema Definition Language. By default this goes into a file called schema.graphql but you can break it up into as many different files as you want. By default gqlgen will use any models in the model directory that match on name. -

kafka-go
Kafka library in Go
We rely on both Go and Kafka a lot at Segment. Unfortunately, the state of the Go client libraries for Kafka at the time of this writing was not ideal. sarama, which is by far the most popular but is quite difficult to work with. It is poorly documented, the API exposes low level concepts of the Kafka protocol, and it doesn't support recent Go features like contexts. It also passes all values as pointers which causes large numbers of dynamic memory allocations, more frequent garbage collections, and higher memory usage. confluent-kafka-go is a cgo based wrapper around librdkafka, which means it introduces a dependency to a C library on all Go code that uses the package. It has much better documentation than sarama but still lacks support for Go contexts. goka is a more recent Kafka client for Go which focuses on a specific usage pattern. It provides abstractions for using Kafka as a message passing bus between services rather than an ordered log of events. -

koanf
Simple, lightweight, extensible, configuration management library
koanf (pronounced conf; a play on the Japanese Koan) is a library for reading configurations from different sources in different formats in Go applications. It is a cleaner, lighter alternative to spf13/viper with better abstractions and extensibility, and fewer dependencies. koanf comes with built-in support for reading configuration from files, command line flags, and environment variables, and can parse JSON, YAML, TOML, and Hashicorp HCL. Any external dependencies are detached from the core into sub-packages, so only the ones that are explicitly referenced get compiled into an application. Once loaded into koanf, configuration are values queried by a delimited key path syntax. eg: app.server.port. Any delimiter can be chosen. Configuration from multiple sources can be loaded and merged into a koanf instance, for example, load from a file first and override certain values with flags from the command line. -

xdg
Go implementation of the XDG Base Directory Specification
Provides an implementation of the XDG Base Directory Specification. The specification defines a set of standard paths for storing application files, including data and configuration files. For portability and flexibility reasons, applications should use the XDG-defined locations instead of hardcoding paths. The package also includes the locations of well-known user directories, as well as other common directories such as fonts and applications. The current implementation supports most flavors of Unix, Windows, macOS and Plan 9. On Windows, where XDG environment variables are not usually set, the package uses Known Folders as defaults. Therefore, appropriate locations are used for common folders which may have been redirected. -

Amazon EC2 Instance Selector
A CLI tool and go library which recommends instance types
A CLI tool and go library which recommends instance types based on resource criteria like vcpus and memory. There are over 270 different instance types available on EC2 which can make the process of selecting appropriate instance types difficult. Instance Selector helps you select compatible instance types for your application to run on. The command-line interface can be passed resource criteria like vcpus, memory, network performance, and much more and then return the available, matching instance types. If you are using spot instances to save on costs, it is a best practice to use multiple instances types within your auto-scaling group (ASG) to ensure your application doesn't experience downtime due to one instance type being interrupted. Instance Selector will help to find a set of instance types that your application can run on. -

Casbin
An authorization library that supports access control models
An authorization library that supports access control models like ACL, RBAC, ABAC for Golang, Java, C/C++, Node.js, Javascript, PHP, Laravel, Python, .NET (C#), Delphi, Rust, Ruby, Swift (Objective-C), Lua (OpenResty), Dart (Flutter) and Elixir. In Casbin, an access control model is abstracted into a CONF file based on the PERM metamodel (Policy, Effect, Request, Matchers). So switching or upgrading the authorization mechanism for a project is just as simple as modifying a configuration. Besides memory and file, Casbin policy can be stored into lots of places. Currently, dozens of databases are supported, from MySQL, Postgres, Oracle to MongoDB, Redis, Cassandra, AWS S3. Check the full supported list at: adapters. Casbin is implemented in Golang, Java, PHP and Node.js. All implementations share the same API and behaviors. You can learn Casbin once and use it everywhere. In Casbin, the policy storage is implemented as an adapter(aka middleware for Casbin). -

Cobra
A Commander for modern Go CLI interactions
Cobra is a library for creating powerful modern CLI applications, and at the same time a program to generate applications and command files. It provides a simple interface for creating powerful CLI interfaces, and will also generate application scaffolding so you can quickly develop your Cobra-based application. This scaffolding includes easy subcommand-based CLIs, fully POSIX-compliant flags, global, local and cascading flags, among many others. The structure of Cobra is based on commands, flags and arguments. The commands represent actions, the central point of the application; flags modify the behavior of commands; while arguments are things. With these easy-to-use concepts, users will natively understand how to use the application. -

Ebiten
A dead simple 2D game library for Go
Ebiten is an open source game library for the Go programming language. Ebiten's simple API allows you to quickly and easily develop 2D games that can be deployed across multiple platforms. In Ebiten, everything is an image: the screen, data from an image file, and even offscreen items are all represented as image objects. Most rendering operations consist of drawing one image on top of another. Ebiten games work on desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux, and FreeBSD), web browsers (through WebAssembly), and even on mobile (Android and iOS)! Plus, Ebiten is implemented in pure Go on Windows, so Windows developers do not need to install a C compiler. Nintendo Switch™ is also supported! While Ebiten's drawing API is very simple, Ebiten games run very fast with GPU power. Multiple images are integrated into a texture atlas internally, and drawing operations are automatically performed in batch when possible. -

Functional programming library golang
functional programming library for golang
This library aims to provide a set of data types and functions that make it easy and fun to write maintainable and testable code in Golang. Write many small, testable, and pure functions, i.e. functions that produce output only depending on their input and that do not execute side effects. Offer helpers to isolate side effects into lazily executed functions (IO). Expose a consistent set of compositions to create new functions from existing ones. For each data type, there exists a small set of composition functions. These functions are called the same across all data types, so you only have to learn a small number of function names. The semantic of functions of the same name is consistent across all data types. -

Go gRPC Middleware
Golang gRPC Middlewares: interceptor chaining, auth, logging, retries
gRPC Go has support for "interceptors", i.e. middleware that is executed either on the gRPC Server before the request is passed onto the user's application logic, or on the gRPC client either around the user call. It is a perfect way to implement common patterns: auth, logging, tracing, metrics, validation, retries, rate limiting, and more, which can be great generic building blocks that make it easy to build multiple microservices. Especially for observability signals (logging, tracing, metrics) interceptors offer semi-auto-instrumentation that improves the consistency of your observability and allows great correlation techniques (e.g. exemplars and trace ID in logs). Demo-ed in examples. This repository offers ready-to-use middleware that implements gRPC interceptors with examples. In some cases, dedicated projects offer great interceptors, so this repository skips those, and we link them in the interceptors list. -

Grafana Operator
An operator for Grafana that installs and manages Grafana instances
The Grafana Operator is a Kubernetes operator built to help you manage your Grafana instances and its resources in and outside of Kubernetes. Whether you’re running one Grafana instance or many, the Grafana Operator simplifies the processes of installing, configuring, and maintaining Grafana and its resources. Additionally, it's perfect for those who prefer to manage resources using infrastructure as code or using GitOps workflows through tools like ArgoCD and Flux CD. -

M3U8
Parser and generator of M3U8-playlists for Apple HLS. Library for Go
This is the most complete open-source library for parsing and generating of M3U8 playlists used in HTTP Live Streaming (Apple HLS) for internet video translations. M3U8 is a simple text format and parsing library for it must be simple too. It does not offer ways to play HLS or handle playlists over HTTP. -

go-datastructures
A collection of useful, performant, and threadsafe Go datastructures
Go-datastructures is a collection of useful, performant, and threadsafe Go datastructures. Interval tree for collision in n-dimensional ranges. Implemented via a red-black augmented tree. Extra dimensions are handled in simultaneous inserts/queries to save space although this may result in suboptimal time complexity. Intersection determined using bit arrays. In a single dimension, inserts, deletes, and queries should be in O(log n) time. Bitarray used to detect existence without having to resort to hashing with hashmaps. Requires entities have a uint64 unique identifier. Two implementations exist, regular and sparse. Sparse saves a great deal of space but insertions are O(log n). There are some useful functions on the BitArray interface to detect intersection between two bitarrays. This package also includes bitmaps of length 32 and 64 that provide increased speed and O(1) for all operations by storing the bitmaps in unsigned integers rather than arrays. -
25
go-github
Go library for accessing the GitHub API
go-github is a Go client library for accessing the GitHub API v3. Currently, go-github requires Go version 1.13 or greater. go-github tracks Go's version support policy. We do our best not to break older versions of Go if we don't have to, but due to tooling constraints, we don't always test older versions. If you're interested in using the GraphQL API v4, the recommended library is shurcooL/githubv4. go-github is compatible with modern Go releases in module mode. Resolve and add the package to the current development module, along with its dependencies. Alternatively the same can be achieved if you use import in a package. Construct a new GitHub client, then use the various services on the client to access different parts of the GitHub API. Some API methods have optional parameters that can be passed. Using the context package, one can easily pass cancelation signals and deadlines to various services of the client for handling a request.
