Features

• Authentication & Authorization: JWT-based auth, role-based access control
• CRUD Operations: Complete Create, Read, Update, Delete functionality
• Database Integration: Support for multiple database backends
• Middleware: Request logging, CORS, rate limiting
• Testing Environment: Perfect for API testing and development
• Docker Support: Easy containerization and deployment

Prerequisites

• Go 1.24 or higher
• Database (PostgreSQL or MySQL)
• Docker

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/sudo-which-qp/sandbox_api
cd sandbox_api

2. Install dependencies:

go mod download

3. Set up environment variables:

cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your configuration

4. Run database migrations:

make migrate-up

Usage

Starting the Server

There are two docker files available: Dockerfile and Dockerfile.dev. On the docker-compose.yml you can change it there for dev or production. But you can also run the server with the go command: go run cmd/api/main.go. if you don't have docker installed. I will recommend you to using Air if you want to use docker. As Air is already installed in the project, you can run the server with the air command.

# Development mode
docker-compose up --build
