divanvisagie / go-inventory-tracker

An example of a swagger first API for tracking inventory items

You will find many kinds of projects on here, from contributions to Open Source libraries I tried to use and then broke and decided to fix, to projects to back up my blogposts, to just random experiments that I find useful to keep.

While I write mainly backend microservice stuff by day, on here I pretty much just solve any computer related problem I have with code; whether it's controlling my fan speed or solving my 20GB Skyrim save file problem it's all fair game for this polyglot programmer.

You will find the projects I am most proud of pinned below.

go-inventory-tracker's Issues

Load testing

Run some locust load tests against it

Move logic out of the restapi

The logic should be moved into a service or something, would be nice to find a neat way to do this, priority though should be moving it out and connecting it to a real database

• Move logic out
• Set up database
• Use database instead of local tracking

Load balancing

Add some load balancing in docker

Handle high loads

Having a single database is causing issues with with high RPSs because we run out of connections, especially when scaling out the service. Should look into how to solve this.

Investigate using a gokit generator instead

The service is generated off of the swagger definition, need to find a way to generate a gokit service instead of whatever the heck the thing it's generating now is.

Add license

Gotta license this thing
