Go REST API - Learning Project

This project is a personal learning exercise to build a simple REST API using Go and Next.js. The goal is to practice building APIs with the following tools and libraries:

• go-chi/chi: A lightweight, idiomatic HTTP router for Go.
• rs/zerolog: A high-performance, structured logging library.
• stretchr/testify: A testing toolkit for Go with a variety of helpers for assertions and mocking.

Install & Run

git clone https://github.com/mmadariaga/go-api.git
cd go-api
docker-compose up

Features

Currently, the API only has two routes:

• GET /ping: Returns a simple "pong" response.
• GET /races/{year}: Returns application_races.RacesByYearResponse json object with a summary of all the races of the year 2024 in f1. This endpoint requires Basic Auth (go:api)
• GET /races/drivers: Returns domain_model.Driver json object array with the drivers that participated in the last race. This endpoint requires Basic Auth (go:api)

Example:

$ curl http://localhost:8080/ping
pong

WIP

• Create a web interface with next.js and tailwind
