Cauldron

Project generator using Catalyst as a template.

Cauldron will generate a fully configured project along with a sample set so you can check whether everything is working fine.

The sample set covers request response lifecycle handling of basic CRUD operations. So you can use them as an example to create your REST API.

The project that will be created uses go.mod for dependency management. This will enable you to create and run projects outside of the GOPATH.

Visit the Catalyst base project for more information.

Version 1 vs Version 2

Version 1 of Cauldron supports creating projects using Catalyst versions v1.0.0 to v2.3.x.

Version 2 of Cauldron supports creating projects using Catalyst version v2.4.0 and upwards.

Installation

go get github.com/kosatnkn/cauldron

Usage

Command

cauldron -n Sample -s github.com/username [-t v1.0.0]

cauldron --name Sample --namespace github.com/username [--tag v1.0.0]

Input Parameters

• -n --name Project name (ex: ProjectOne). The name will be converted to lowercase to be used in module path.
• -s --namespace Namespace for the project (ex: github.com/example)
