💡 Idea

Define a powerful template that quickly creates a new Go module. Not only does it provide a starting point for new projects, but it comes equipped with pre-configured ci/cd and inventory.

🏆 Motivation

At OctoLab, we want to start new projects faster using best practices with a predefined structure and focusing on core ideas implementation rather than wasting time on environment configuration and copying boilerplate code.

🤼‍ How to

Build your own module

  1. Generate a new repository from the template.
  2. Clone the repository locally.
  3. Update the desired files as needed, e.g., run init my.new/module.
  4. Write your code and tests.
  5. 🚀

Contribute to the template

  1. Read the contribution guidelines.
  2. Fork the repository.
  3. Make your changes.
  4. Send a pull request.
  5. 🤗

Before you start, please make sure your changes are in demand. The best for that is to create a new discussion, or if you find an issue, report it first.
