Go Mini Wiki: Zero-Dependency High-Integrity File Store
The Systems Logic: The service implements a Zero-Dependency architecture, utilizing Go’s native http.ServeMux for routing. To ensure security and maintainability, I utilized Higher-Order Functions (MakeHandler) to create a centralised validation layer for all incoming requests. Data integrity is managed through Atomic File I/O, ensuring that page saves are deterministic and protected against partial writes. The project also showcases modern Go practices with Structured Logging (slog) for high-fidelity diagnostics.
The Forge Specs
- ✦ Pattern: Higher-order Closures for centralised request validation and middleware-like orchestration
- ✦ Security: Strict Regex-validated routing and context-aware HTML escaping via html/template
- ✦ Persistence: High-integrity file-system mapping using the os package for reliable data storage
- ✦ Diagnostics: Integrated slog (Structured Logging) for machine-readable, searchable system logs.
- ✦ Architecture: Framework-independent design with a Zero-Dependency footprint for maximum execution speed and zero maintenance debt.
- ✦ Deployed: on Render (Note: Cold starts may apply)
