API Server

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a standardized approach to building reliable and maintainable HTTP services, REST APIs, and middleware in Golang, reducing boilerplate and promoting best practices.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Standardized Routing: Offers guidance on choosing and implementing routers like net/http, Echo, or Gin.
• Graceful Shutdown: Ensures applications handle termination signals correctly, preventing data loss.
• Middleware Implementation: Details patterns for common middleware concerns like logging, authentication, and recovery.
• Use Case: Develop a new microservice that exposes a REST API for user management, ensuring it can be gracefully shut down during deployments and includes essential middleware for logging and request tracing.

Quick Start

Use the API Server skill to create a new Golang HTTP service using the Echo framework with graceful shutdown implemented.
