GO Feature Flag API - API to configure your feature flag

This repository is a work in progress initiative to create an API to manage your feature flags.

Goals

• Create an API to manage your feature flags
• API should allow to add, modify and delete feature flags.
• Use a database to store the feature flags.
• This API is created to integrate a front end application to manage the feature flags.
• We should manage authentication and authorization to access the API.
  • Authentication should be generic enough to be integrated with any authentication provider.
• We should be able to provide history of a flag to see when it was created, modified and deleted.

Tech stack

• GO API using echo
• Postgres database using sqlx and pq as driver.

How to start the project.

After cloning the project you can start the database (using docker):

make setup-env

It will start an instance of postgres with the following credentials:

• user: goff-user
• password: my-secret-pw

And it will apply the database migrations to your environment.

To start the API:

make build
./out/bin/goff-api

When started you can access the swagger UI at http://localhost:3001/swagger/.
