Package websocket implements the WebSocket protocol defined in RFC 6455. The Conn type represents a WebSocket connection. A server application calls the Upgrader.Upgrade method from an HTTP request handler to get a *Conn: Call the connection's WriteMessage and ReadMessage methods to send and receive messages as a slice of bytes. This snippet of code shows how to echo messages using these methods: In above snippet of code, p is a []byte and messageType is an int with value websocket.BinaryMessage or websocket.TextMessage. An application can also send and receive messages using the io.WriteCloser and io.Reader interfaces. To send a message, call the connection NextWriter method to get an io.WriteCloser, write the message to the writer and close the writer when done. To receive a message, call the connection NextReader method to get an io.Reader and read until io.EOF is returned. This snippet shows how to echo messages using the NextWriter and NextReader methods: The WebSocket protocol distinguishes between text and binary data messages. Text messages are interpreted as UTF-8 encoded text. The interpretation of binary messages is left to the application. This package uses the TextMessage and BinaryMessage integer constants to identify the two data message types. The ReadMessage and NextReader methods return the type of the received message. The messageType argument to the WriteMessage and NextWriter methods specifies the type of a sent message. It is the application's responsibility to ensure that text messages are valid UTF-8 encoded text. The WebSocket protocol defines three types of control messages: close, ping and pong. Call the connection WriteControl, WriteMessage or NextWriter methods to send a control message to the peer. Connections handle received close messages by calling the handler function set with the SetCloseHandler method and by returning a *CloseError from the NextReader, ReadMessage or the message Read method. The default close handler sends a close message to the peer. Connections handle received ping messages by calling the handler function set with the SetPingHandler method. The default ping handler sends a pong message to the peer. Connections handle received pong messages by calling the handler function set with the SetPongHandler method. The default pong handler does nothing. If an application sends ping messages, then the application should set a pong handler to receive the corresponding pong. The control message handler functions are called from the NextReader, ReadMessage and message reader Read methods. The default close and ping handlers can block these methods for a short time when the handler writes to the connection. The application must read the connection to process close, ping and pong messages sent from the peer. If the application is not otherwise interested in messages from the peer, then the application should start a goroutine to read and discard messages from the peer. A simple example is: Connections support one concurrent reader and one concurrent writer. Applications are responsible for ensuring that no more than one goroutine calls the write methods (NextWriter, SetWriteDeadline, WriteMessage, WriteJSON, EnableWriteCompression, SetCompressionLevel) concurrently and that no more than one goroutine calls the read methods (NextReader, SetReadDeadline, ReadMessage, ReadJSON, SetPongHandler, SetPingHandler) concurrently. The Close and WriteControl methods can be called concurrently with all other methods. Web browsers allow Javascript applications to open a WebSocket connection to any host. It's up to the server to enforce an origin policy using the Origin request header sent by the browser. The Upgrader calls the function specified in the CheckOrigin field to check the origin. If the CheckOrigin function returns false, then the Upgrade method fails the WebSocket handshake with HTTP status 403. If the CheckOrigin field is nil, then the Upgrader uses a safe default: fail the handshake if the Origin request header is present and the Origin host is not equal to the Host request header. The deprecated package-level Upgrade function does not perform origin checking. The application is responsible for checking the Origin header before calling the Upgrade function. Connections buffer network input and output to reduce the number of system calls when reading or writing messages. Write buffers are also used for constructing WebSocket frames. See RFC 6455, Section 5 for a discussion of message framing. A WebSocket frame header is written to the network each time a write buffer is flushed to the network. Decreasing the size of the write buffer can increase the amount of framing overhead on the connection. The buffer sizes in bytes are specified by the ReadBufferSize and WriteBufferSize fields in the Dialer and Upgrader. The Dialer uses a default size of 4096 when a buffer size field is set to zero. The Upgrader reuses buffers created by the HTTP server when a buffer size field is set to zero. The HTTP server buffers have a size of 4096 at the time of this writing. The buffer sizes do not limit the size of a message that can be read or written by a connection. Buffers are held for the lifetime of the connection by default. If the Dialer or Upgrader WriteBufferPool field is set, then a connection holds the write buffer only when writing a message. Applications should tune the buffer sizes to balance memory use and performance. Increasing the buffer size uses more memory, but can reduce the number of system calls to read or write the network. In the case of writing, increasing the buffer size can reduce the number of frame headers written to the network. Some guidelines for setting buffer parameters are: Limit the buffer sizes to the maximum expected message size. Buffers larger than the largest message do not provide any benefit. Depending on the distribution of message sizes, setting the buffer size to a value less than the maximum expected message size can greatly reduce memory use with a small impact on performance. Here's an example: If 99% of the messages are smaller than 256 bytes and the maximum message size is 512 bytes, then a buffer size of 256 bytes will result in 1.01 more system calls than a buffer size of 512 bytes. The memory savings is 50%. A write buffer pool is useful when the application has a modest number writes over a large number of connections. when buffers are pooled, a larger buffer size has a reduced impact on total memory use and has the benefit of reducing system calls and frame overhead. Per message compression extensions (RFC 7692) are experimentally supported by this package in a limited capacity. Setting the EnableCompression option to true in Dialer or Upgrader will attempt to negotiate per message deflate support. If compression was successfully negotiated with the connection's peer, any message received in compressed form will be automatically decompressed. All Read methods will return uncompressed bytes. Per message compression of messages written to a connection can be enabled or disabled by calling the corresponding Conn method: Currently this package does not support compression with "context takeover". This means that messages must be compressed and decompressed in isolation, without retaining sliding window or dictionary state across messages. For more details refer to RFC 7692. Use of compression is experimental and may result in decreased performance.

Package sdk is the official AWS SDK for the Go programming language. The AWS SDK for Go provides APIs and utilities that developers can use to build Go applications that use AWS services, such as Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) and Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3). The SDK removes the complexity of coding directly against a web service interface. It hides a lot of the lower-level plumbing, such as authentication, request retries, and error handling. The SDK also includes helpful utilities on top of the AWS APIs that add additional capabilities and functionality. For example, the Amazon S3 Download and Upload Manager will automatically split up large objects into multiple parts and transfer them concurrently. See the s3manager package documentation for more information. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-go/api/service/s3/s3manager/ Checkout the Getting Started Guide and API Reference Docs detailed the SDK's components and details on each AWS client the SDK supports. The Getting Started Guide provides examples and detailed description of how to get setup with the SDK. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-go/v1/developer-guide/welcome.html The API Reference Docs include a detailed breakdown of the SDK's components such as utilities and AWS clients. Use this as a reference of the Go types included with the SDK, such as AWS clients, API operations, and API parameters. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-go/api/ The SDK is composed of two main components, SDK core, and service clients. The SDK core packages are all available under the aws package at the root of the SDK. Each client for a supported AWS service is available within its own package under the service folder at the root of the SDK. aws - SDK core, provides common shared types such as Config, Logger, and utilities to make working with API parameters easier. awserr - Provides the error interface that the SDK will use for all errors that occur in the SDK's processing. This includes service API response errors as well. The Error type is made up of a code and message. Cast the SDK's returned error type to awserr.Error and call the Code method to compare returned error to specific error codes. See the package's documentation for additional values that can be extracted such as RequestId. credentials - Provides the types and built in credentials providers the SDK will use to retrieve AWS credentials to make API requests with. Nested under this folder are also additional credentials providers such as stscreds for assuming IAM roles, and ec2rolecreds for EC2 Instance roles. endpoints - Provides the AWS Regions and Endpoints metadata for the SDK. Use this to lookup AWS service endpoint information such as which services are in a region, and what regions a service is in. Constants are also provided for all region identifiers, e.g UsWest2RegionID for "us-west-2". session - Provides initial default configuration, and load configuration from external sources such as environment and shared credentials file. request - Provides the API request sending, and retry logic for the SDK. This package also includes utilities for defining your own request retryer, and configuring how the SDK processes the request. service - Clients for AWS services. All services supported by the SDK are available under this folder. The SDK includes the Go types and utilities you can use to make requests to AWS service APIs. Within the service folder at the root of the SDK you'll find a package for each AWS service the SDK supports. All service clients follows a common pattern of creation and usage. When creating a client for an AWS service you'll first need to have a Session value constructed. The Session provides shared configuration that can be shared between your service clients. When service clients are created you can pass in additional configuration via the aws.Config type to override configuration provided by in the Session to create service client instances with custom configuration. Once the service's client is created you can use it to make API requests the AWS service. These clients are safe to use concurrently. In the AWS SDK for Go, you can configure settings for service clients, such as the log level and maximum number of retries. Most settings are optional; however, for each service client, you must specify a region and your credentials. The SDK uses these values to send requests to the correct AWS region and sign requests with the correct credentials. You can specify these values as part of a session or as environment variables. See the SDK's configuration guide for more information. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-go/v1/developer-guide/configuring-sdk.html See the session package documentation for more information on how to use Session with the SDK. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-go/api/aws/session/ See the Config type in the aws package for more information on configuration options. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-go/api/aws/#Config When using the SDK you'll generally need your AWS credentials to authenticate with AWS services. The SDK supports multiple methods of supporting these credentials. By default the SDK will source credentials automatically from its default credential chain. See the session package for more information on this chain, and how to configure it. The common items in the credential chain are the following: Environment Credentials - Set of environment variables that are useful when sub processes are created for specific roles. Shared Credentials file (~/.aws/credentials) - This file stores your credentials based on a profile name and is useful for local development. EC2 Instance Role Credentials - Use EC2 Instance Role to assign credentials to application running on an EC2 instance. This removes the need to manage credential files in production. Credentials can be configured in code as well by setting the Config's Credentials value to a custom provider or using one of the providers included with the SDK to bypass the default credential chain and use a custom one. This is helpful when you want to instruct the SDK to only use a specific set of credentials or providers. This example creates a credential provider for assuming an IAM role, "myRoleARN" and configures the S3 service client to use that role for API requests. See the credentials package documentation for more information on credential providers included with the SDK, and how to customize the SDK's usage of credentials. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-go/api/aws/credentials The SDK has support for the shared configuration file (~/.aws/config). This support can be enabled by setting the environment variable, "AWS_SDK_LOAD_CONFIG=1", or enabling the feature in code when creating a Session via the Option's SharedConfigState parameter. In addition to the credentials you'll need to specify the region the SDK will use to make AWS API requests to. In the SDK you can specify the region either with an environment variable, or directly in code when a Session or service client is created. The last value specified in code wins if the region is specified multiple ways. To set the region via the environment variable set the "AWS_REGION" to the region you want to the SDK to use. Using this method to set the region will allow you to run your application in multiple regions without needing additional code in the application to select the region. The endpoints package includes constants for all regions the SDK knows. The values are all suffixed with RegionID. These values are helpful, because they reduce the need to type the region string manually. To set the region on a Session use the aws package's Config struct parameter Region to the AWS region you want the service clients created from the session to use. This is helpful when you want to create multiple service clients, and all of the clients make API requests to the same region. See the endpoints package for the AWS Regions and Endpoints metadata. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-go/api/aws/endpoints/ In addition to setting the region when creating a Session you can also set the region on a per service client bases. This overrides the region of a Session. This is helpful when you want to create service clients in specific regions different from the Session's region. See the Config type in the aws package for more information and additional options such as setting the Endpoint, and other service client configuration options. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-go/api/aws/#Config Once the client is created you can make an API request to the service. Each API method takes a input parameter, and returns the service response and an error. The SDK provides methods for making the API call in multiple ways. In this list we'll use the S3 ListObjects API as an example for the different ways of making API requests. ListObjects - Base API operation that will make the API request to the service. ListObjectsRequest - API methods suffixed with Request will construct the API request, but not send it. This is also helpful when you want to get a presigned URL for a request, and share the presigned URL instead of your application making the request directly. ListObjectsPages - Same as the base API operation, but uses a callback to automatically handle pagination of the API's response. ListObjectsWithContext - Same as base API operation, but adds support for the Context pattern. This is helpful for controlling the canceling of in flight requests. See the Go standard library context package for more information. This method also takes request package's Option functional options as the variadic argument for modifying how the request will be made, or extracting information from the raw HTTP response. ListObjectsPagesWithContext - same as ListObjectsPages, but adds support for the Context pattern. Similar to ListObjectsWithContext this method also takes the request package's Option function option types as the variadic argument. In addition to the API operations the SDK also includes several higher level methods that abstract checking for and waiting for an AWS resource to be in a desired state. In this list we'll use WaitUntilBucketExists to demonstrate the different forms of waiters. WaitUntilBucketExists. - Method to make API request to query an AWS service for a resource's state. Will return successfully when that state is accomplished. WaitUntilBucketExistsWithContext - Same as WaitUntilBucketExists, but adds support for the Context pattern. In addition these methods take request package's WaiterOptions to configure the waiter, and how underlying request will be made by the SDK. The API method will document which error codes the service might return for the operation. These errors will also be available as const strings prefixed with "ErrCode" in the service client's package. If there are no errors listed in the API's SDK documentation you'll need to consult the AWS service's API documentation for the errors that could be returned. Pagination helper methods are suffixed with "Pages", and provide the functionality needed to round trip API page requests. Pagination methods take a callback function that will be called for each page of the API's response. Waiter helper methods provide the functionality to wait for an AWS resource state. These methods abstract the logic needed to to check the state of an AWS resource, and wait until that resource is in a desired state. The waiter will block until the resource is in the state that is desired, an error occurs, or the waiter times out. If a resource times out the error code returned will be request.WaiterResourceNotReadyErrorCode. This example shows a complete working Go file which will upload a file to S3 and use the Context pattern to implement timeout logic that will cancel the request if it takes too long. This example highlights how to use sessions, create a service client, make a request, handle the error, and process the response.

Package validator implements value validations for structs and individual fields based on tags. It can also handle Cross-Field and Cross-Struct validation for nested structs and has the ability to dive into arrays and maps of any type. see more examples https://github.com/go-playground/validator/tree/master/_examples Validator is designed to be thread-safe and used as a singleton instance. It caches information about your struct and validations, in essence only parsing your validation tags once per struct type. Using multiple instances neglects the benefit of caching. The not thread-safe functions are explicitly marked as such in the documentation. Doing things this way is actually the way the standard library does, see the file.Open method here: The authors return type "error" to avoid the issue discussed in the following, where err is always != nil: Validator only InvalidValidationError for bad validation input, nil or ValidationErrors as type error; so, in your code all you need to do is check if the error returned is not nil, and if it's not check if error is InvalidValidationError ( if necessary, most of the time it isn't ) type cast it to type ValidationErrors like so err.(validator.ValidationErrors). Custom Validation functions can be added. Example: Cross-Field Validation can be done via the following tags: If, however, some custom cross-field validation is required, it can be done using a custom validation. Why not just have cross-fields validation tags (i.e. only eqcsfield and not eqfield)? The reason is efficiency. If you want to check a field within the same struct "eqfield" only has to find the field on the same struct (1 level). But, if we used "eqcsfield" it could be multiple levels down. Example: Multiple validators on a field will process in the order defined. Example: Bad Validator definitions are not handled by the library. Example: Baked In Cross-Field validation only compares fields on the same struct. If Cross-Field + Cross-Struct validation is needed you should implement your own custom validator. Comma (",") is the default separator of validation tags. If you wish to have a comma included within the parameter (i.e. excludesall=,) you will need to use the UTF-8 hex representation 0x2C, which is replaced in the code as a comma, so the above will become excludesall=0x2C. Pipe ("|") is the 'or' validation tags deparator. If you wish to have a pipe included within the parameter i.e. excludesall=| you will need to use the UTF-8 hex representation 0x7C, which is replaced in the code as a pipe, so the above will become excludesall=0x7C Here is a list of the current built in validators: Tells the validation to skip this struct field; this is particularly handy in ignoring embedded structs from being validated. (Usage: -) This is the 'or' operator allowing multiple validators to be used and accepted. (Usage: rgb|rgba) <-- this would allow either rgb or rgba colors to be accepted. This can also be combined with 'and' for example ( Usage: omitempty,rgb|rgba) When a field that is a nested struct is encountered, and contains this flag any validation on the nested struct will be run, but none of the nested struct fields will be validated. This is useful if inside of your program you know the struct will be valid, but need to verify it has been assigned. NOTE: only "required" and "omitempty" can be used on a struct itself. Same as structonly tag except that any struct level validations will not run. Allows conditional validation, for example if a field is not set with a value (Determined by the "required" validator) then other validation such as min or max won't run, but if a value is set validation will run. Allows to skip the validation if the value is nil (same as omitempty, but only for the nil-values). This tells the validator to dive into a slice, array or map and validate that level of the slice, array or map with the validation tags that follow. Multidimensional nesting is also supported, each level you wish to dive will require another dive tag. dive has some sub-tags, 'keys' & 'endkeys', please see the Keys & EndKeys section just below. Example #1 Example #2 Keys & EndKeys These are to be used together directly after the dive tag and tells the validator that anything between 'keys' and 'endkeys' applies to the keys of a map and not the values; think of it like the 'dive' tag, but for map keys instead of values. Multidimensional nesting is also supported, each level you wish to validate will require another 'keys' and 'endkeys' tag. These tags are only valid for maps. Example #1 Example #2 This validates that the value is not the data types default zero value. For numbers ensures value is not zero. For strings ensures value is not "". For booleans ensures value is not false. For slices, maps, pointers, interfaces, channels and functions ensures the value is not nil.

For slices, maps, pointers, interfaces, channels and functions ensures the value is not nil. For structs ensures value is not the zero value. Examples: This validates that the value is the default value and is almost the opposite of required. For numbers, length will ensure that the value is equal to the parameter given. For strings, it checks that the string length is exactly that number of characters. For slices, arrays, and maps, validates the number of items. Example #1 Example #2 (time.Duration) For time.Duration, len will ensure that the value is equal to the duration given in the parameter. For numbers, max will ensure that the value is less than or equal to the parameter given. For strings, it checks that the string length is at most that number of characters. For slices, arrays, and maps, validates the number of items. Example #1 Example #2 (time.Duration) For time.Duration, max will ensure that the value is less than or equal to the duration given in the parameter. For numbers, min will ensure that the value is greater or equal to the parameter given. For strings, it checks that the string length is at least that number of characters. For slices, arrays, and maps, validates the number of items. Example #1 Example #2 (time.Duration) For time.Duration, min will ensure that the value is greater than or equal to the duration given in the parameter. For strings & numbers, eq will ensure that the value is equal to the parameter given. For slices, arrays, and maps, validates the number of items. Example #1 Example #2 (time.Duration) For time.Duration, eq will ensure that the value is equal to the duration given in the parameter. For strings & numbers, ne will ensure that the value is not equal to the parameter given. For slices, arrays, and maps, validates the number of items. Example #1 Example #2 (time.Duration) For time.Duration, ne will ensure that the value is not equal to the duration given in the parameter. For strings, ints, and uints, oneof will ensure that the value is one of the values in the parameter. The parameter should be a list of values separated by whitespace. Values may be strings or numbers. To match strings with spaces in them, include the target string between single quotes. Kind of like an 'enum'. Works the same as oneof but is case insensitive and therefore only accepts strings. For numbers, this will ensure that the value is greater than the parameter given. For strings, it checks that the string length is greater than that number of characters. For slices, arrays and maps it validates the number of items. Example #1 Example #2 (time.Time) For time.Time ensures the time value is greater than time.Now.UTC(). Example #3 (time.Duration) For time.Duration, gt will ensure that the value is greater than the duration given in the parameter. Same as 'min' above. Kept both to make terminology with 'len' easier. Example #1 Example #2 (time.Time) For time.Time ensures the time value is greater than or equal to time.Now.UTC(). Example #3 (time.Duration) For time.Duration, gte will ensure that the value is greater than or equal to the duration given in the parameter. For numbers, this will ensure that the value is less than the parameter given. For strings, it checks that the string length is less than that number of characters. For slices, arrays, and maps it validates the number of items. Example #1 Example #2 (time.Time) For time.Time ensures the time value is less than time.Now.UTC().

Alias Validators and Tags NOTE: When returning an error, the tag returned in "FieldError" will be the alias tag unless the dive tag is part of the alias. Everything after the dive tag is not reported as the alias tag. Also, the "ActualTag" in the before case will be the actual tag within the alias that failed. Here is a list of the current built in alias tags: Validator notes: A collection of validation rules that are frequently needed but are more complex than the ones found in the baked in validators. A non standard validator must be registered manually like you would with your own custom validation functions. Example of registration and use: Here is a list of the current non standard validators: This package panics when bad input is provided, this is by design, bad code like that should not make it to production.

Package jsoniter implements encoding and decoding of JSON as defined in RFC 4627 and provides interfaces with identical syntax of standard lib encoding/json. Converting from encoding/json to jsoniter is no more than replacing the package with jsoniter and variable type declarations (if any). jsoniter interfaces gives 100% compatibility with code using standard lib. "JSON and Go" (https://golang.org/doc/articles/json_and_go.html) gives a description of how Marshal/Unmarshal operate between arbitrary or predefined json objects and bytes, and it applies to jsoniter.Marshal/Unmarshal as well. Besides, jsoniter.Iterator provides a different set of interfaces iterating given bytes/string/reader and yielding parsed elements one by one. This set of interfaces reads input as required and gives better performance.

Package validator implements value validations for structs and individual fields based on tags. It can also handle Cross-Field and Cross-Struct validation for nested structs and has the ability to dive into arrays and maps of any type. see more examples https://github.com/go-playground/validator/tree/v9/_examples Doing things this way is actually the way the standard library does, see the file.Open method here: The authors return type "error" to avoid the issue discussed in the following, where err is always != nil: Validator only InvalidValidationError for bad validation input, nil or ValidationErrors as type error; so, in your code all you need to do is check if the error returned is not nil, and if it's not check if error is InvalidValidationError ( if necessary, most of the time it isn't ) type cast it to type ValidationErrors like so err.(validator.ValidationErrors). Custom Validation functions can be added. Example: Cross-Field Validation can be done via the following tags: If, however, some custom cross-field validation is required, it can be done using a custom validation. Why not just have cross-fields validation tags (i.e. only eqcsfield and not eqfield)? The reason is efficiency. If you want to check a field within the same struct "eqfield" only has to find the field on the same struct (1 level). But, if we used "eqcsfield" it could be multiple levels down. Example: Multiple validators on a field will process in the order defined. Example: Bad Validator definitions are not handled by the library. Example: Baked In Cross-Field validation only compares fields on the same struct. If Cross-Field + Cross-Struct validation is needed you should implement your own custom validator. Comma (",") is the default separator of validation tags. If you wish to have a comma included within the parameter (i.e. excludesall=,) you will need to use the UTF-8 hex representation 0x2C, which is replaced in the code as a comma, so the above will become excludesall=0x2C. Pipe ("|") is the 'or' validation tags deparator. If you wish to have a pipe included within the parameter i.e. excludesall=| you will need to use the UTF-8 hex representation 0x7C, which is replaced in the code as a pipe, so the above will become excludesall=0x7C Here is a list of the current built in validators: Tells the validation to skip this struct field; this is particularly handy in ignoring embedded structs from being validated. (Usage: -) This is the 'or' operator allowing multiple validators to be used and accepted. (Usage: rbg|rgba) <-- this would allow either rgb or rgba colors to be accepted. This can also be combined with 'and' for example ( Usage: omitempty,rgb|rgba) When a field that is a nested struct is encountered, and contains this flag any validation on the nested struct will be run, but none of the nested struct fields will be validated. This is useful if inside of your program you know the struct will be valid, but need to verify it has been assigned. NOTE: only "required" and "omitempty" can be used on a struct itself. Same as structonly tag except that any struct level validations will not run. Allows conditional validation, for example if a field is not set with a value (Determined by the "required" validator) then other validation such as min or max won't run, but if a value is set validation will run. This tells the validator to dive into a slice, array or map and validate that level of the slice, array or map with the validation tags that follow. Multidimensional nesting is also supported, each level you wish to dive will require another dive tag. dive has some sub-tags, 'keys' & 'endkeys', please see the Keys & EndKeys section just below. Example #1 Example #2 Keys & EndKeys These are to be used together directly after the dive tag and tells the validator that anything between 'keys' and 'endkeys' applies to the keys of a map and not the values; think of it like the 'dive' tag, but for map keys instead of values. Multidimensional nesting is also supported, each level you wish to validate will require another 'keys' and 'endkeys' tag. These tags are only valid for maps. Example #1 Example #2 This validates that the value is not the data types default zero value. For numbers ensures value is not zero. For strings ensures value is not "". For slices, maps, pointers, interfaces, channels and functions ensures the value is not nil. The field under validation must be present and not empty only if any of the other specified fields are present. For strings ensures value is not "". For slices, maps, pointers, interfaces, channels and functions ensures the value is not nil. Examples: The field under validation must be present and not empty only if all of the other specified fields are present. For strings ensures value is not "". For slices, maps, pointers, interfaces, channels and functions ensures the value is not nil. Example: The field under validation must be present and not empty only when any of the other specified fields are not present. For strings ensures value is not "". For slices, maps, pointers, interfaces, channels and functions ensures the value is not nil. Examples: The field under validation must be present and not empty only when all of the other specified fields are not present. For strings ensures value is not "". For slices, maps, pointers, interfaces, channels and functions ensures the value is not nil. Example: This validates that the value is the default value and is almost the opposite of required. For numbers, length will ensure that the value is equal to the parameter given. For strings, it checks that the string length is exactly that number of characters. For slices, arrays, and maps, validates the number of items. For numbers, max will ensure that the value is less than or equal to the parameter given. For strings, it checks that the string length is at most that number of characters. For slices, arrays, and maps, validates the number of items. For numbers, min will ensure that the value is greater or equal to the parameter given. For strings, it checks that the string length is at least that number of characters. For slices, arrays, and maps, validates the number of items. For strings & numbers, eq will ensure that the value is equal to the parameter given. For slices, arrays, and maps, validates the number of items. For strings & numbers, ne will ensure that the value is not equal to the parameter given. For slices, arrays, and maps, validates the number of items. For strings, ints, and uints, oneof will ensure that the value is one of the values in the parameter. The parameter should be a list of values separated by whitespace. Values may be strings or numbers. For numbers, this will ensure that the value is greater than the parameter given. For strings, it checks that the string length is greater than that number of characters. For slices, arrays and maps it validates the number of items. Example #1 Example #2 (time.Time) For time.Time ensures the time value is greater than time.Now.UTC(). Same as 'min' above. Kept both to make terminology with 'len' easier. Example #1 Example #2 (time.Time) For time.Time ensures the time value is greater than or equal to time.Now.UTC(). For numbers, this will ensure that the value is less than the parameter given. For strings, it checks that the string length is less than that number of characters. For slices, arrays, and maps it validates the number of items. Example #1 Example #2 (time.Time) For time.Time ensures the time value is less than time.Now.UTC(). Same as 'max' above. Kept both to make terminology with 'len' easier. Example #1 Example #2 (time.Time) For time.Time ensures the time value is less than or equal to time.Now.UTC(). This will validate the field value against another fields value either within a struct or passed in field. Example #1: Example #2: Field Equals Another Field (relative) This does the same as eqfield except that it validates the field provided relative to the top level struct. This will validate the field value against another fields value either within a struct or passed in field. Examples: Field Does Not Equal Another Field (relative) This does the same as nefield except that it validates the field provided relative to the top level struct. Only valid for Numbers and time.Time types, this will validate the field value against another fields value either within a struct or passed in field. usage examples are for validation of a Start and End date: Example #1: Example #2: This does the same as gtfield except that it validates the field provided relative to the top level struct. Only valid for Numbers and time.Time types, this will validate the field value against another fields value either within a struct or passed in field. usage examples are for validation of a Start and End date: Example #1: Example #2: This does the same as gtefield except that it validates the field provided relative to the top level struct.

This does the same as contains except for struct fields. It should only be used with string types. See the behavior of reflect.Value.String() for behavior on other types. This does the same as excludes except for struct fields. It should only be used with string types. See the behavior of reflect.Value.String() for behavior on other types. For arrays & slices, unique will ensure that there are no duplicates. For maps, unique will ensure that there are no duplicate values.

Package mapstructure exposes functionality to convert one arbitrary Go type into another, typically to convert a map[string]interface{} into a native Go structure. The Go structure can be arbitrarily complex, containing slices, other structs, etc. and the decoder will properly decode nested maps and so on into the proper structures in the native Go struct. See the examples to see what the decoder is capable of. The simplest function to start with is Decode. When decoding to a struct, mapstructure will use the field name by default to perform the mapping. For example, if a struct has a field "Username" then mapstructure will look for a key in the source value of "username" (case insensitive). You can change the behavior of mapstructure by using struct tags. The default struct tag that mapstructure looks for is "mapstructure" but you can customize it using DecoderConfig. To rename the key that mapstructure looks for, use the "mapstructure" tag and set a value directly. For example, to change the "username" example above to "user": Embedded structs are treated as if they're another field with that name. By default, the two structs below are equivalent when decoding with mapstructure: This would require an input that looks like below: If your "person" value is NOT nested, then you can append ",squash" to your tag value and mapstructure will treat it as if the embedded struct were part of the struct directly. Example: Now the following input would be accepted: When decoding from a struct to a map, the squash tag squashes the struct fields into a single map. Using the example structs from above: Will be decoded into a map: DecoderConfig has a field that changes the behavior of mapstructure to always squash embedded structs. If there are any unmapped keys in the source value, mapstructure by default will silently ignore them. You can error by setting ErrorUnused in DecoderConfig. If you're using Metadata you can also maintain a slice of the unused keys. You can also use the ",remain" suffix on your tag to collect all unused values in a map. The field with this tag MUST be a map type and should probably be a "map[string]interface{}" or "map[interface{}]interface{}". See example below: Given the input below, Other would be populated with the other values that weren't used (everything but "name"): When decoding from a struct to any other value, you may use the ",omitempty" suffix on your tag to omit that value if it equates to the zero value. The zero value of all types is specified in the Go specification. For example, the zero type of a numeric type is zero ("0"). If the struct field value is zero and a numeric type, the field is empty, and it won't be encoded into the destination type. Since unexported (private) struct fields cannot be set outside the package where they are defined, the decoder will simply skip them. For this output type definition: Using this map as input: The following struct will be decoded: mapstructure is highly configurable. See the DecoderConfig struct for other features and options that are supported.

Package wire contains directives for Wire code generation. For an overview of working with Wire, see the user guide at https://github.com/google/wire/blob/master/docs/guide.md The directives in this package are used as input to the Wire code generation tool. The entry point of Wire's analysis are injector functions: function templates denoted by only containing a call to Build. The arguments to Build describes a set of providers and the Wire code generation tool builds a directed acylic graph of the providers' output types. The generated code will fill in the function template by using the providers from the provider set to instantiate any needed types.

`grpc_middleware` is a collection of gRPC middleware packages: interceptors, helpers and tools. gRPC is a fantastic RPC middleware, which sees a lot of adoption in the Golang world. However, the upstream gRPC codebase is relatively bare bones. This package, and most of its child packages provides commonly needed middleware for gRPC: client-side interceptors for retires, server-side interceptors for input validation and auth, functions for chaining said interceptors, metadata convenience methods and more. By default, gRPC doesn't allow one to have more than one interceptor either on the client nor on the server side. `grpc_middleware` provides convenient chaining methods Simple way of turning a multiple interceptors into a single interceptor. Here's an example for server chaining: These interceptors will be executed from left to right: logging, monitoring and auth. Here's an example for client side chaining: These interceptors will be executed from left to right: monitoring and then retry logic. The retry interceptor will call every interceptor that follows it whenever when a retry happens. Implementing your own interceptor is pretty trivial: there are interfaces for that. But the interesting bit exposing common data to handlers (and other middleware), similarly to HTTP Middleware design. For example, you may want to pass the identity of the caller from the auth interceptor all the way to the handling function. For example, a client side interceptor example for auth looks like: Unfortunately, it's not as easy for streaming RPCs. These have the `context.Context` embedded within the `grpc.ServerStream` object. To pass values through context, a wrapper (`WrappedServerStream`) is needed. For example:

Package validator implements value validations for structs and individual fields based on tags. It can also handle Cross-Field and Cross-Struct validation for nested structs and has the ability to dive into arrays and maps of any type. Why not a better error message? Because this library intends for you to handle your own error messages. Why should I handle my own errors? Many reasons. We built an internationalized application and needed to know the field, and what validation failed so we could provide a localized error. Doing things this way is actually the way the standard library does, see the file.Open method here: The authors return type "error" to avoid the issue discussed in the following, where err is always != nil: Validator only returns nil or ValidationErrors as type error; so, in your code all you need to do is check if the error returned is not nil, and if it's not type cast it to type ValidationErrors like so err.(validator.ValidationErrors). Custom functions can be added. Example: Cross-Field Validation can be done via the following tags: If, however, some custom cross-field validation is required, it can be done using a custom validation. Why not just have cross-fields validation tags (i.e. only eqcsfield and not eqfield)? The reason is efficiency. If you want to check a field within the same struct "eqfield" only has to find the field on the same struct (1 level). But, if we used "eqcsfield" it could be multiple levels down.

It is used when a field is a Pointer, Interface or Invalid and you wish to validate that it exists. Example: want to ensure a bool exists if you define the bool as a pointer and use exists it will ensure there is a value; couldn't use required as it would fail when the bool was false. exists will fail is the value is a Pointer, Interface or Invalid and is nil. Allows conditional validation, for example if a field is not set with a value (Determined by the "required" validator) then other validation such as min or max won't run, but if a value is set validation will run. This tells the validator to dive into a slice, array or map and validate that level of the slice, array or map with the validation tags that follow. Multidimensional nesting is also supported, each level you wish to dive will require another dive tag. Example #1 Example #2 This validates that the value is not the data types default zero value. For numbers ensures value is not zero. For strings ensures value is not "". For slices, maps, pointers, interfaces, channels and functions ensures the value is not nil. For numbers, max will ensure that the value is equal to the parameter given. For strings, it checks that the string length is exactly that number of characters. For slices, arrays, and maps, validates the number of items. For numbers, max will ensure that the value is less than or equal to the parameter given. For strings, it checks that the string length is at most that number of characters. For slices, arrays, and maps, validates the number of items. For numbers, min will ensure that the value is greater or equal to the parameter given. For strings, it checks that the string length is at least that number of characters. For slices, arrays, and maps, validates the number of items. For strings & numbers, eq will ensure that the value is equal to the parameter given. For slices, arrays, and maps, validates the number of items. For strings & numbers, ne will ensure that the value is not equal to the parameter given. For slices, arrays, and maps, validates the number of items. For numbers, this will ensure that the value is greater than the parameter given. For strings, it checks that the string length is greater than that number of characters. For slices, arrays and maps it validates the number of items. Example #1 Example #2 (time.Time) For time.Time ensures the time value is greater than time.Now.UTC(). Same as 'min' above. Kept both to make terminology with 'len' easier. Example #1 Example #2 (time.Time) For time.Time ensures the time value is greater than or equal to time.Now.UTC(). For numbers, this will ensure that the value is less than the parameter given. For strings, it checks that the string length is less than that number of characters. For slices, arrays, and maps it validates the number of items. Example #1 Example #2 (time.Time) For time.Time ensures the time value is less than time.Now.UTC(). Same as 'max' above. Kept both to make terminology with 'len' easier. Example #1 Example #2 (time.Time) For time.Time ensures the time value is less than or equal to time.Now.UTC().

Package blackfriday is a markdown processor. It translates plain text with simple formatting rules into an AST, which can then be further processed to HTML (provided by Blackfriday itself) or other formats (provided by the community). The simplest way to invoke Blackfriday is to call the Run function. It will take a text input and produce a text output in HTML (or other format). A slightly more sophisticated way to use Blackfriday is to create a Markdown processor and to call Parse, which returns a syntax tree for the input document. You can leverage Blackfriday's parsing for content extraction from markdown documents. You can assign a custom renderer and set various options to the Markdown processor. If you're interested in calling Blackfriday from command line, see https://github.com/russross/blackfriday-tool. Blackfriday includes an algorithm for creating sanitized anchor names corresponding to a given input text. This algorithm is used to create anchors for headings when AutoHeadingIDs extension is enabled. The algorithm is specified below, so that other packages can create compatible anchor names and links to those anchors. The algorithm iterates over the input text, interpreted as UTF-8, one Unicode code point (rune) at a time. All runes that are letters (category L) or numbers (category N) are considered valid characters. They are mapped to lower case, and included in the output. All other runes are considered invalid characters. Invalid characters that precede the first valid character, as well as invalid character that follow the last valid character are dropped completely. All other sequences of invalid characters between two valid characters are replaced with a single dash character '-'. SanitizedAnchorName exposes this functionality, and can be used to create compatible links to the anchor names generated by blackfriday. This algorithm is also implemented in a small standalone package at github.com/shurcooL/sanitized_anchor_name. It can be useful for clients that want a small package and don't need full functionality of blackfriday.

Package validator implements value validations for structs and individual fields based on tags. It can also handle Cross-Field and Cross-Struct validation for nested structs and has the ability to dive into arrays and maps of any type. see more examples https://github.com/go-playground/validator/tree/v9/_examples Doing things this way is actually the way the standard library does, see the file.Open method here: The authors return type "error" to avoid the issue discussed in the following, where err is always != nil: Validator only InvalidValidationError for bad validation input, nil or ValidationErrors as type error; so, in your code all you need to do is check if the error returned is not nil, and if it's not check if error is InvalidValidationError ( if necessary, most of the time it isn't ) type cast it to type ValidationErrors like so err.(validator.ValidationErrors). Custom Validation functions can be added. Example: Cross-Field Validation can be done via the following tags: If, however, some custom cross-field validation is required, it can be done using a custom validation. Why not just have cross-fields validation tags (i.e. only eqcsfield and not eqfield)? The reason is efficiency. If you want to check a field within the same struct "eqfield" only has to find the field on the same struct (1 level). But, if we used "eqcsfield" it could be multiple levels down. Example: Multiple validators on a field will process in the order defined. Example: Bad Validator definitions are not handled by the library. Example: Baked In Cross-Field validation only compares fields on the same struct. If Cross-Field + Cross-Struct validation is needed you should implement your own custom validator. Comma (",") is the default separator of validation tags. If you wish to have a comma included within the parameter (i.e. excludesall=,) you will need to use the UTF-8 hex representation 0x2C, which is replaced in the code as a comma, so the above will become excludesall=0x2C. Pipe ("|") is the 'or' validation tags deparator. If you wish to have a pipe included within the parameter i.e. excludesall=| you will need to use the UTF-8 hex representation 0x7C, which is replaced in the code as a pipe, so the above will become excludesall=0x7C Here is a list of the current built in validators: Tells the validation to skip this struct field; this is particularly handy in ignoring embedded structs from being validated. (Usage: -) This is the 'or' operator allowing multiple validators to be used and accepted. (Usage: rbg|rgba) <-- this would allow either rgb or rgba colors to be accepted. This can also be combined with 'and' for example ( Usage: omitempty,rgb|rgba) When a field that is a nested struct is encountered, and contains this flag any validation on the nested struct will be run, but none of the nested struct fields will be validated. This is useful if inside of your program you know the struct will be valid, but need to verify it has been assigned. NOTE: only "required" and "omitempty" can be used on a struct itself. Same as structonly tag except that any struct level validations will not run. Allows conditional validation, for example if a field is not set with a value (Determined by the "required" validator) then other validation such as min or max won't run, but if a value is set validation will run. This tells the validator to dive into a slice, array or map and validate that level of the slice, array or map with the validation tags that follow. Multidimensional nesting is also supported, each level you wish to dive will require another dive tag. dive has some sub-tags, 'keys' & 'endkeys', please see the Keys & EndKeys section just below. Example #1 Example #2 Keys & EndKeys These are to be used together directly after the dive tag and tells the validator that anything between 'keys' and 'endkeys' applies to the keys of a map and not the values; think of it like the 'dive' tag, but for map keys instead of values. Multidimensional nesting is also supported, each level you wish to validate will require another 'keys' and 'endkeys' tag. These tags are only valid for maps. Example #1 Example #2 This validates that the value is not the data types default zero value. For numbers ensures value is not zero. For strings ensures value is not "". For slices, maps, pointers, interfaces, channels and functions ensures the value is not nil. The field under validation must be present and not empty only if any of the other specified fields are present. For strings ensures value is not "". For slices, maps, pointers, interfaces, channels and functions ensures the value is not nil. Examples: The field under validation must be present and not empty only if all of the other specified fields are present. For strings ensures value is not "". For slices, maps, pointers, interfaces, channels and functions ensures the value is not nil. Example: The field under validation must be present and not empty only when any of the other specified fields are not present. For strings ensures value is not "". For slices, maps, pointers, interfaces, channels and functions ensures the value is not nil. Examples: The field under validation must be present and not empty only when all of the other specified fields are not present. For strings ensures value is not "". For slices, maps, pointers, interfaces, channels and functions ensures the value is not nil. Example: This validates that the value is the default value and is almost the opposite of required. For numbers, length will ensure that the value is equal to the parameter given. For strings, it checks that the string length is exactly that number of characters. For slices, arrays, and maps, validates the number of items. For numbers, max will ensure that the value is less than or equal to the parameter given. For strings, it checks that the string length is at most that number of characters. For slices, arrays, and maps, validates the number of items. For numbers, min will ensure that the value is greater or equal to the parameter given. For strings, it checks that the string length is at least that number of characters.

For slices, arrays, and maps, validates the number of items. For strings & numbers, ne will ensure that the value is not equal to the parameter given. For slices, arrays, and maps, validates the number of items. For strings, ints, and uints, oneof will ensure that the value is one of the values in the parameter. The parameter should be a list of values separated by whitespace. Values may be strings or numbers. For numbers, this will ensure that the value is greater than the parameter given. For strings, it checks that the string length is greater than that number of characters. For slices, arrays and maps it validates the number of items. Example #1 Example #2 (time.Time) For time.Time ensures the time value is greater than time.Now.UTC(). Same as 'min' above. Kept both to make terminology with 'len' easier. Example #1 Example #2 (time.Time) For time.Time ensures the time value is greater than or equal to time.Now.UTC(). For numbers, this will ensure that the value is less than the parameter given.

This does the same as contains except for struct fields. It should only be used with string types. See the behavior of reflect.Value.String() for behavior on other types. This does the same as excludes except for struct fields. It should only be used with string types. See the behavior of reflect.Value.String() for behavior on other types. For arrays & slices, unique will ensure that there are no duplicates. For maps, unique will ensure that there are no duplicate values.

Package hcl decodes HCL into usable Go structures. hcl input can come in either pure HCL format or JSON format. It can be parsed into an AST, and then decoded into a structure, or it can be decoded directly from a string into a structure. If you choose to parse HCL into a raw AST, the benefit is that you can write custom visitor implementations to implement custom semantic checks. By default, HCL does not perform any semantic checks.

Package promptui is a library providing a simple interface to create command-line prompts for go. It can be easily integrated into spf13/cobra, urfave/cli or any cli go application. promptui has two main input modes: Prompt provides a single line for user input. It supports optional live validation, confirmation and masking the input. Select provides a list of options to choose from. It supports pagination, search, detailed view and custom templates. This is an example for the Prompt mode of promptui. In this example, a prompt is created with a validator function that validates the given value to make sure its a number. If successful, it will output the chosen number in a formatted message. This is an example for the Select mode of promptui. In this example, a select is created with the days of the week as its items. When an item is selected, the selected day will be displayed in a formatted message.

Package imaging provides basic image processing functions (resize, rotate, crop, brightness/contrast adjustments, etc.). All the image processing functions provided by the package accept any image type that implements image.Image interface as an input, and return a new image of *image.NRGBA type (32bit RGBA colors, non-premultiplied alpha).

Package ebiten provides graphics and input API to develop a 2D game. You can start the game by calling the function RunGame. In the API document, 'the main thread' means the goroutine in init(), main() and their callees without 'go' statement. It is assured that 'the main thread' runs on the OS main thread. There are some Ebitengine functions (e.g., DeviceScaleFactor) that must be called on the main thread under some conditions (typically, before ebiten.RunGame is called). `EBITENGINE_SCREENSHOT_KEY` environment variable specifies the key to take a screenshot. For example, if you run your game with `EBITENGINE_SCREENSHOT_KEY=q`, you can take a game screen's screenshot by pressing Q key. This works only on desktops and browsers. `EBITENGINE_INTERNAL_IMAGES_KEY` environment variable specifies the key to dump all the internal images. This is valid only when the build tag 'ebitenginedebug' is specified. This works only on desktops and browsers. `EBITENGINE_GRAPHICS_LIBRARY` environment variable specifies the graphics library. If the specified graphics library is not available, RunGame returns an error. This environment variable works when RunGame is called or RunGameWithOptions is called with GraphicsLibraryAuto. This can take one of the following value: `EBITENGINE_DIRECTX` environment variable specifies various parameters for DirectX. You can specify multiple values separated by a comma. The default value is empty (i.e. no parameters). The options taking arguments are exclusive, and if multiples are specified, the lastly specified value is adopted. The possible values for the option "version" are "11" and "12". If the version is not specified, the default version 11 is adopted. On Xbox, the "version" option is ignored and DirectX 12 is always adopted. The option "featurelevel" is valid only for DirectX 12. The possible values are "11_0", "11_1", "12_0", "12_1", and "12_2". The default value is "11_0". `ebitenginedebug` outputs a log of graphics commands. This is useful to know what happens in Ebitengine. In general, the number of graphics commands affects the performance of your game. `ebitenginegldebug` enables a debug mode for OpenGL. This is valid only when the graphics library is OpenGL. This affects performance very much. `ebitenginesinglethread` disables Ebitengine's thread safety to unlock maximum performance. If you use this you will have to manage threads yourself. Functions like `SetWindowSize` will no longer be concurrent-safe with this build tag. They must be called from the main thread or the same goroutine as the given game's callback functions like Update `ebitenginesinglethread` works only with desktops and consoles. `ebitenginesinglethread` was deprecated as of v2.7. Use RunGameOptions.SingleThread instead. `microsoftgdk` is for Microsoft GDK (e.g. Xbox). `nintendosdk` is for NintendoSDK (e.g. Nintendo Switch). `nintendosdkprofile` enables a profiler for NintendoSDK. `playstation5` is for PlayStation 5.

Package middleware `middleware` is a collection of gRPC middleware packages: interceptors, helpers and tools. gRPC is a fantastic RPC middleware, which sees a lot of adoption in the Golang world. However, the upstream gRPC codebase is relatively bare bones. This package, and most of its child packages provides commonly needed middleware for gRPC: client-side interceptors for retires, server-side interceptors for input validation and auth, functions for chaining said interceptors, metadata convenience methods and more. Simple way of turning a multiple interceptors into a single interceptor. Here's an example for server chaining: These interceptors will be executed from left to right: logging, monitoring and auth. Here's an example for client side chaining: These interceptors will be executed from left to right: monitoring and then retry logic. The retry interceptor will call every interceptor that follows it whenever when a retry happens. Implementing your own interceptor is pretty trivial: there are interfaces for that. But the interesting bit exposing common data to handlers (and other middleware), similarly to HTTP Middleware design. For example, you may want to pass the identity of the caller from the auth interceptor all the way to the handling function. For example, a client side interceptor example for auth looks like: Unfortunately, it's not as easy for streaming RPCs. These have the `context.Context` embedded within the `grpc.ServerStream` object. To pass values through context, a wrapper (`WrappedServerStream`) is needed. For example:

Package presignedurl provides the customizations for API clients to fill in presigned URLs into input parameters.

Package pflag is a drop-in replacement for Go's flag package, implementing POSIX/GNU-style --flags. pflag is compatible with the GNU extensions to the POSIX recommendations for command-line options. See http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Argument-Syntax.html Usage: pflag is a drop-in replacement of Go's native flag package. If you import pflag under the name "flag" then all code should continue to function with no changes. There is one exception to this: if you directly instantiate the Flag struct there is one more field "Shorthand" that you will need to set. Most code never instantiates this struct directly, and instead uses functions such as String(), BoolVar(), and Var(), and is therefore unaffected. Define flags using flag.String(), Bool(), Int(), etc. This declares an integer flag, -flagname, stored in the pointer ip, with type *int. If you like, you can bind the flag to a variable using the Var() functions. Or you can create custom flags that satisfy the Value interface (with pointer receivers) and couple them to flag parsing by For such flags, the default value is just the initial value of the variable. After all flags are defined, call to parse the command line into the defined flags. Flags may then be used directly. If you're using the flags themselves, they are all pointers; if you bind to variables, they're values. After parsing, the arguments after the flag are available as the slice flag.Args() or individually as flag.Arg(i). The arguments are indexed from 0 through flag.NArg()-1. The pflag package also defines some new functions that are not in flag, that give one-letter shorthands for flags. You can use these by appending 'P' to the name of any function that defines a flag. Shorthand letters can be used with single dashes on the command line. Boolean shorthand flags can be combined with other shorthand flags. Command line flag syntax: Unlike the flag package, a single dash before an option means something different than a double dash. Single dashes signify a series of shorthand letters for flags. All but the last shorthand letter must be boolean flags. Flag parsing stops after the terminator "--". Unlike the flag package, flags can be interspersed with arguments anywhere on the command line before this terminator. Integer flags accept 1234, 0664, 0x1234 and may be negative. Boolean flags (in their long form) accept 1, 0, t, f, true, false, TRUE, FALSE, True, False. Duration flags accept any input valid for time.ParseDuration. The default set of command-line flags is controlled by top-level functions. The FlagSet type allows one to define independent sets of flags, such as to implement subcommands in a command-line interface. The methods of FlagSet are analogous to the top-level functions for the command-line flag set.

Package tcell provides a lower-level, portable API for building programs that interact with terminals or consoles. It works with both common (and many uncommon!) terminals or terminal emulators, and Windows console implementations. It provides support for up to 256 colors, text attributes, and box drawing elements. A database of terminals built from a real terminfo database is provided, along with code to generate new database entries. Tcell offers very rich support for mice, dependent upon the terminal of course. (Windows, XTerm, and iTerm 2 are known to work very well.) If the environment is not Unicode by default, such as an ISO8859 based locale or GB18030, Tcell can convert input and output, so that your terminal can operate in whatever locale is most convenient, while the application program can just assume "everything is UTF-8". Reasonable defaults are used for updating characters to something suitable for display. Unicode box drawing characters will be converted to use the alternate character set of your terminal, if native conversions are not available. If no ACS is available, then some ASCII fallbacks will be used. Note that support for non-UTF-8 locales (other than C) must be enabled by the application using RegisterEncoding() -- we don't have them all enabled by default to avoid bloating the application unnecessarily. (These days UTF-8 is good enough for almost everyone, and nobody should be using legacy locales anymore.) Also, actual glyphs for various code point will only be displayed if your terminal or emulator (or the font the emulator is using) supports them. A rich set of key codes is supported, with support for up to 65 function keys, and various other special keys.

Package fx is a framework that makes it easy to build applications out of reusable, composable modules. Fx applications use dependency injection to eliminate globals without the tedium of manually wiring together function calls. Unlike other approaches to dependency injection, Fx works with plain Go functions: you don't need to use struct tags or embed special types, so Fx automatically works well with most Go packages. Basic usage is explained in the package-level example. If you're new to Fx, start there! Advanced features, including named instances, optional parameters, and value groups, are explained in this section further down. To test functions that use the Lifecycle type or to write end-to-end tests of your Fx application, use the helper functions and types provided by the go.uber.org/fx/fxtest package. Fx constructors declare their dependencies as function parameters. This can quickly become unreadable if the constructor has a lot of dependencies. To improve the readability of constructors like this, create a struct that lists all the dependencies as fields and change the function to accept that struct instead. The new struct is called a parameter struct. Fx has first class support for parameter structs: any struct embedding fx.In gets treated as a parameter struct, so the individual fields in the struct are supplied via dependency injection. Using a parameter struct, we can make the constructor above much more readable: Though it's rarelly necessary to mix the two, constructors can receive any combination of parameter structs and parameters. Result structs are the inverse of parameter structs. These structs represent multiple outputs from a single function as fields. Fx treats all structs embedding fx.Out as result structs, so other constructors can rely on the result struct's fields directly. Without result structs, we sometimes have function definitions like this: With result structs, we can make this both more readable and easier to modify in the future: Some use cases require the application container to hold multiple values of the same type. A constructor that produces a result struct can tag any field with `name:".."` to have the corresponding value added to the graph under the specified name. An application may contain at most one unnamed value of a given type, but may contain any number of named values of the same type. Similarly, a constructor that accepts a parameter struct can tag any field with `name:".."` to have the corresponding value injected by name. Note that both the name AND type of the fields on the parameter struct must match the corresponding result struct. Constructors often have optional dependencies on some types: if those types are missing, they can operate in a degraded state. Fx supports optional dependencies via the `optional:"true"` tag to fields on parameter structs. If an optional field isn't available in the container, the constructor receives the field's zero value. Constructors that declare optional dependencies MUST gracefully handle situations in which those dependencies are absent. The optional tag also allows adding new dependencies without breaking existing consumers of the constructor. The optional tag may be combined with the name tag to declare a named value dependency optional. To make it easier to produce and consume many values of the same type, Fx supports named, unordered collections called value groups. Constructors can send values into value groups by returning a result struct tagged with `group:".."`. Any number of constructors may provide values to this named collection, but the ordering of the final collection is unspecified. Value groups require parameter and result structs to use fields with different types: if a group of constructors each returns type T, parameter structs consuming the group must use a field of type []T. Parameter structs can request a value group by using a field of type []T tagged with `group:".."`. This will execute all constructors that provide a value to that group in an unspecified order, then collect all the results into a single slice. Note that values in a value group are unordered. Fx makes no guarantees about the order in which these values will be produced. By default, when a constructor declares a dependency on a value group, all values provided to that value group are eagerly instantiated. That is undesirable for cases where an optional component wants to constribute to a value group, but only if it was actually used by the rest of the application. A soft value group can be thought of as a best-attempt at populating the group with values from constructors that have already run. In other words, if a constructor's output type is only consumed by a soft value group, it will not be run. Note that Fx randomizes the order of values in the value group, so the slice of values may not match the order in which constructors were run. To declare a soft relationship between a group and its constructors, use the `soft` option on the input group tag (`group:"[groupname],soft"`). This option is only valid for input parameters. With such a declaration, a constructor that provides a value to the 'server' value group will be called only if there's another instantiated component that consumes the results of that constructor. NewHandlerAndLogger will be called because the Logger is consumed by the application, but NewHandler will not be called because it's only consumed by the soft value group. By default, values of type T produced to a value group are consumed as []T. This means that if the producer produces []T, the consumer must consume [][]T. There are cases where it's desirable for the producer (the fx.Out) to produce multiple values ([]T), and for the consumer (the fx.In) consume them as a single slice ([]T). Fx offers flattened value groups for this purpose. To provide multiple values for a group from a result struct, produce a slice and use the `,flatten` option on the group tag. This indicates that each element in the slice should be injected into the group individually. By default, a type that embeds fx.In may not have any unexported fields. The following will return an error if used with Fx. If you have need of unexported fields on such a type, you may opt-into ignoring unexported fields by adding the ignore-unexported struct tag to the fx.In. For example,

Package generated provides a function that parses a source file and reports whether it contains a "// Code generated … DO NOT EDIT." line comment. It implements the specification at https://go.dev/s/generatedcode. The first priority is correctness (no false negatives, no false positives). It must return accurate results even if the input source code is formatted unconventionally. The second priority is performance. The current version uses bufio.Reader and ReadBytes. Performance can be optimized further by using lower level I/O primitives and allocating less. That can be explored later.

Package ebiten provides graphics and input API to develop a 2D game. You can start the game by calling the function RunGame. In the API document, 'the main thread' means the goroutine in init(), main() and their callees without 'go' statement. It is assured that 'the main thread' runs on the OS main thread. There are some Ebiten functions that must be called on the main thread under some conditions (typically, before ebiten.RunGame is called). `EBITEN_SCREENSHOT_KEY` environment variable specifies the key to take a screenshot. For example, if you run your game with `EBITEN_SCREENSHOT_KEY=q`, you can take a game screen's screenshot by pressing Q key. This works only on desktops. `EBITEN_INTERNAL_IMAGES_KEY` environment variable specifies the key to dump all the internal images. This is valid only when the build tag 'ebitendebug' is specified. This works only on desktops. `ebitendebug` outputs a log of graphics commands. This is useful to know what happens in Ebiten. In general, the number of graphics commands affects the performance of your game. `ebitengl` forces to use OpenGL in any environments.

Package endpointdiscovery provides a feature implemented in the AWS SDK for Go V2 that allows client to fetch a valid endpoint to serve an API request. Discovered endpoints are stored in an internal thread-safe cache to reduce the number of calls made to fetch the endpoint. Endpoint discovery stores endpoint by associating to a generated cache key. Cache key is built using service-modeled sdkId and any service-defined input identifiers provided by the customer. Endpoint cache keys follow the grammar: The endpoint discovery cache implementation is internal. Clients resolves the cache size to 10 entries. Each entry may contain multiple host addresses as returned by the service. Each discovered endpoint has a TTL associated to it, and are evicted from cache lazily i.e. when client tries to retrieve an endpoint but finds an expired entry instead. Endpoint discovery feature can be turned on by setting the `AWS_ENABLE_ENDPOINT_DISCOVERY` env variable to TRUE. By default, the feature is set to AUTO - indicating operations that require endpoint discovery always use it. To completely turn off the feature, one should set the value as FALSE. Similar configuration rules apply for shared config file where key is `endpoint_discovery_enabled`.

Package blackfriday is a markdown processor. It translates plain text with simple formatting rules into an AST, which can then be further processed to HTML (provided by Blackfriday itself) or other formats (provided by the community). The simplest way to invoke Blackfriday is to call the Run function. It will take a text input and produce a text output in HTML (or other format). A slightly more sophisticated way to use Blackfriday is to create a Markdown processor and to call Parse, which returns a syntax tree for the input document. You can leverage Blackfriday's parsing for content extraction from markdown documents. You can assign a custom renderer and set various options to the Markdown processor. If you're interested in calling Blackfriday from command line, see https://github.com/russross/blackfriday-tool.

(These days UTF-8 is good enough for almost everyone, and nobody should be using legacy locales anymore.) Also, actual glyphs for various code point will only be displayed if your terminal or emulator (or the font the emulator is using) supports them. A rich set of keycodes is supported, with support for up to 65 function keys, and various other special keys.

Package attributevalue provides marshaling and unmarshaling utilities to convert between Go types and Amazon DynamoDB AttributeValues. These utilities allow you to marshal slices, maps, structs, and scalar values to and from AttributeValue type. These utilities make it easier to convert between AttributeValue and Go types when working with DynamoDB resources. This package only converts between Go types and DynamoDB AttributeValue. See the feature/dynamodbstreams/attributevalue package for converting to DynamoDBStreams AttributeValue types. The FromDynamoStreamsDBMap, FromDynamoStreamsDBList, and FromDynamoDBStreams functions provide the conversion utilities to convert a DynamoDBStreams AttributeValue type to a DynamoDB AttributeValue type. Use these utilities when you need to convert the AttributeValue type between the two APIs. To marshal a Go type to an AttributeValue you can use the Marshal, MarshalList, and MarshalMap functions. The List and Map functions are specialized versions of the Marshal for serializing slices and maps of Attributevalues. The following example uses MarshalMap to convert a Go struct, Record to a AttributeValue. The AttributeValue value is then used as input to the PutItem operation call. To unmarshal an AttributeValue to a Go type you can use the Unmarshal, UnmarshalList, UnmarshalMap, and UnmarshalListOfMaps functions. The List and Map functions are specialized versions of the Unmarshal function for unmarshal slices and maps of Attributevalues. The following example will unmarshal Items result from the DynamoDB's Scan API operation. The Items returned will be unmarshaled into the slice of the Records struct. The AttributeValue Marshal and Unmarshal functions support the `dynamodbav` struct tag by default. Additional tags can be enabled with the EncoderOptions and DecoderOptions, TagKey option. See the Marshal and Unmarshal function for information on how struct tags and fields are marshaled and unmarshaled.

Gnostic is a tool for building better REST APIs through knowledge. Gnostic reads declarative descriptions of REST APIs that conform to the OpenAPI Specification, reports errors, resolves internal dependencies, and puts the results in a binary form that can be used in any language that is supported by the Protocol Buffer tools. Gnostic models are validated and typed. This allows API tool developers to focus on their product and not worry about input validation and type checking. Gnostic calls plugins that implement a variety of API implementation and support features including generation of client and server support code.

Package bluemonday provides a way of describing an allowlist of HTML elements and attributes as a policy, and for that policy to be applied to untrusted strings from users that may contain markup. All elements and attributes not on the allowlist will be stripped. The default bluemonday.UGCPolicy().Sanitize() turns this: Into the more harmless: And it turns this: Into this: Whilst still allowing this: To pass through mostly unaltered (it gained a rel="nofollow"): The primary purpose of bluemonday is to take potentially unsafe user generated content (from things like Markdown, HTML WYSIWYG tools, etc) and make it safe for you to put on your website. It protects sites against XSS (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-site_scripting) and other malicious content that a user interface may deliver. There are many vectors for an XSS attack (https://www.owasp.org/index.php/XSS_Filter_Evasion_Cheat_Sheet) and the safest thing to do is to sanitize user input against a known safe list of HTML elements and attributes. Note: You should always run bluemonday after any other processing. If you use blackfriday (https://github.com/russross/blackfriday) or Pandoc (http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/) then bluemonday should be run after these steps. This ensures that no insecure HTML is introduced later in your process. bluemonday is heavily inspired by both the OWASP Java HTML Sanitizer (https://code.google.com/p/owasp-java-html-sanitizer/) and the HTML Purifier (http://htmlpurifier.org/). We ship two default policies, one is bluemonday.StrictPolicy() and can be thought of as equivalent to stripping all HTML elements and their attributes as it has nothing on its allowlist. The other is bluemonday.UGCPolicy() and allows a broad selection of HTML elements and attributes that are safe for user generated content. Note that this policy does not allow iframes, object, embed, styles, script, etc. The essence of building a policy is to determine which HTML elements and attributes are considered safe for your scenario. OWASP provide an XSS prevention cheat sheet ( https://www.google.com/search?q=xss+prevention+cheat+sheet ) to help explain the risks, but essentially:

Package blackfriday is a Markdown processor. It translates plain text with simple formatting rules into HTML or LaTeX. Blackfriday includes an algorithm for creating sanitized anchor names corresponding to a given input text. This algorithm is used to create anchors for headings when EXTENSION_AUTO_HEADER_IDS is enabled. The algorithm is specified below, so that other packages can create compatible anchor names and links to those anchors. The algorithm iterates over the input text, interpreted as UTF-8, one Unicode code point (rune) at a time. All runes that are letters (category L) or numbers (category N) are considered valid characters. They are mapped to lower case, and included in the output. All other runes are considered invalid characters. Invalid characters that preceed the first valid character, as well as invalid character that follow the last valid character are dropped completely. All other sequences of invalid characters between two valid characters are replaced with a single dash character '-'. SanitizedAnchorName exposes this functionality, and can be used to create compatible links to the anchor names generated by blackfriday. This algorithm is also implemented in a small standalone package at github.com/shurcooL/sanitized_anchor_name. It can be useful for clients that want a small package and don't need full functionality of blackfriday.

Package validator implements value validations for structs and individual fields based on tags. It can also handle Cross Field and Cross Struct validation for nested structs. Validate A simple example usage: The error can be used like so Both StructErrors and FieldError implement the Error interface but it's intended use is for development + debugging, not a production error message. Why not a better error message? because this library intends for you to handle your own error messages Why should I handle my own errors? Many reasons, for us building an internationalized application I needed to know the field and what validation failed so that I could provide an error in the users specific language. The hierarchical error structure is hard to work with sometimes.. Agreed Flatten function to the rescue! Flatten will return a map of FieldError's but the field name will be namespaced. Custom functions can be added Cross Field Validation can be implemented, for example Start & End Date range validation Multiple validators on a field will process in the order defined Bad Validator definitions are not handled by the library NOTE: Baked In Cross field validation only compares fields on the same struct, if cross field + cross struct validation is needed your own custom validator should be implemented. NOTE2: comma is the default separator of validation tags, if you wish to have a comma included within the parameter i.e. excludesall=, you will need to use the UTF-8 hex representation 0x2C, which is replaced in the code as a comma, so the above will become excludesall=0x2C Here is a list of the current built in validators: Validator notes: This package panics when bad input is provided, this is by design, bad code like that should not make it to production.

Package null contains SQL types that consider zero input and null input as separate values, with convenient support for JSON and text marshaling. Types in this package will always encode to their null value if null. Use the zero subpackage if you want zero values and null to be treated the same.

Package svg generates SVG as defined by the Scalable Vector Graphics 1.1 Specification (<http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/>). Output goes to the specified io.Writer. Shapes, lines, text Paths Image and Gradients Transforms Filter Effects Metadata elements Usage: (assuming GOPATH is set) You can use godoc to browse the documentation from the command line: a minimal program, to generate SVG to standard output. Drawing in a web server: (http://localhost:2003/circle) Many functions use x, y to specify an object's location, and w, h to specify the object's width and height. Where applicable, a final optional argument specifies the style to be applied to the object. The style strings follow the SVG standard; name:value pairs delimited by semicolons, or a series of name="value" pairs. For example: `"fill:none; opacity:0.3"` or `fill="none" opacity="0.3"` (see: <http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/styling.html>) The SVG type: Most operations are methods on this type, specifying the destination io.Writer. The Offcolor type: is used to specify the offset, color, and opacity of stop colors in linear and radial gradients The Filterspec type: is used to specify inputs and results for filter effects Package svg provides an API for generating Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG)

Package wtxmgr provides an implementation of a transaction database handling spend tracking for a bitcoin wallet. Its primary purpose is to save transactions with outputs spendable with wallet keys and transactions that are signed by wallet keys in memory, handle spend tracking for unspent outputs and newly-inserted transactions, and report the spendable balance from each unspent transaction output. It uses walletdb as the backend for storing the serialized transaction objects in buckets. Transaction outputs which are spendable by wallet keys are called credits (because they credit to a wallet's total spendable balance). Transaction inputs which spend previously-inserted credits are called debits (because they debit from the wallet's spendable balance). Spend tracking is mostly automatic. When a new transaction is inserted, if it spends from any unspent credits, they are automatically marked spent by the new transaction, and each input which spent a credit is marked as a debit. However, transaction outputs of inserted transactions must manually marked as credits, as this package has no knowledge of wallet keys or addresses, and therefore cannot determine which outputs may be spent. Details regarding individual transactions and their credits and debits may be queried either by just a transaction hash, or by hash and block. When querying for just a transaction hash, the most recent transaction with a matching hash will be queried. However, because transaction hashes may collide with other transaction hashes, methods to query for specific transactions in the chain (or unmined) are provided as well.

Package mimetype uses magic number signatures to detect the MIME type of a file. File formats are stored in a hierarchy with application/octet-stream at its root. For example, the hierarchy for HTML format is application/octet-stream -> text/plain -> text/html. Pure io.Readers (meaning those without a Seek method) cannot be read twice. This means that once DetectReader has been called on an io.Reader, that reader is missing the bytes representing the header of the file. To detect the MIME type and then reuse the input, use a buffer, io.TeeReader, and io.MultiReader to create a new reader containing the original, unaltered data. If the input is an io.ReadSeeker instead, call input.Seek(0, io.SeekStart) before reusing it. Use Extend to add support for a file format which is not detected by mimetype. https://www.garykessler.net/library/file_sigs.html and https://github.com/file/file/tree/master/magic/Magdir have signatures for a multitude of file formats. Considering the definition of a binary file as "a computer file that is not a text file", they can differentiated by searching for the text/plain MIME in their MIME hierarchy.

Package workerpool queues work to a limited number of goroutines. The purpose of the worker pool is to limit the concurrency of tasks executed by the workers. This is useful when performing tasks that require sufficient resources (CPU, memory, etc.), and running too many tasks at the same time would exhaust resources. A task is a function submitted to the worker pool for execution. Submitting tasks to this worker pool will not block, regardless of the number of tasks. Incoming tasks are immediately dispatched to an available worker. If no worker is immediately available, or there are already tasks waiting for an available worker, then the task is put on a waiting queue to wait for an available worker. The intent of the worker pool is to limit the concurrency of task execution, not limit the number of tasks queued to be executed. Therefore, this unbounded input of tasks is acceptable as the tasks cannot be discarded. If the number of inbound tasks is too many to even queue for pending processing, then the solution is outside the scope of workerpool. It should be solved by distributing load over multiple systems, and/or storing input for pending processing in intermediate storage such as a database, file system, distributed message queue, etc. This worker pool uses a single dispatcher goroutine to read tasks from the input task queue and dispatch them to worker goroutines. This allows for a small input channel, and lets the dispatcher queue as many tasks as are submitted when there are no available workers. Additionally, the dispatcher can adjust the number of workers as appropriate for the work load, without having to utilize locked counters and checks incurred on task submission. When no tasks have been submitted for a period of time, a worker is removed by the dispatcher. This is done until there are no more workers to remove. The minimum number of workers is always zero, because the time to start new workers is insignificant. It is advisable to use different worker pools for tasks that are bound by different resources, or that have different resource use patterns. For example, tasks that use X Mb of memory may need different concurrency limits than tasks that use Y Mb of memory. When there are no available workers to handle incoming tasks, the tasks are put on a waiting queue, in this implementation. In implementations mentioned in the credits below, these tasks were passed to goroutines. Using a queue is faster and has less memory overhead than creating a separate goroutine for each waiting task, allowing a much higher number of waiting tasks. Also, using a waiting queue ensures that tasks are given to workers in the order the tasks were received. This implementation builds on ideas from the following: http://marcio.io/2015/07/handling-1-million-requests-per-minute-with-golang http://nesv.github.io/golang/2014/02/25/worker-queues-in-go.html

bindata converts any file into managable Go source code. Useful for embedding binary data into a go program. The file data is optionally gzip compressed before being converted to a raw byte slice. The following paragraphs cover some of the customization options which can be specified in the Config struct, which must be passed into the Translate() call. When used with the `Debug` option, the generated code does not actually include the asset data. Instead, it generates function stubs which load the data from the original file on disk. The asset API remains identical between debug and release builds, so your code will not have to change. This is useful during development when you expect the assets to change often. The host application using these assets uses the same API in both cases and will not have to care where the actual data comes from. An example is a Go webserver with some embedded, static web content like HTML, JS and CSS files. While developing it, you do not want to rebuild the whole server and restart it every time you make a change to a bit of javascript. You just want to build and launch the server once. Then just press refresh in the browser to see those changes. Embedding the assets with the `debug` flag allows you to do just that. When you are finished developing and ready for deployment, just re-invoke `go-bindata` without the `-debug` flag. It will now embed the latest version of the assets. The `NoMemCopy` option will alter the way the output file is generated. It will employ a hack that allows us to read the file data directly from the compiled program's `.rodata` section. This ensures that when we call call our generated function, we omit unnecessary memcopies. The downside of this, is that it requires dependencies on the `reflect` and `unsafe` packages. These may be restricted on platforms like AppEngine and thus prevent you from using this mode. Another disadvantage is that the byte slice we create, is strictly read-only. For most use-cases this is not a problem, but if you ever try to alter the returned byte slice, a runtime panic is thrown. Use this mode only on target platforms where memory constraints are an issue. The default behaviour is to use the old code generation method. This prevents the two previously mentioned issues, but will employ at least one extra memcopy and thus increase memory requirements. For instance, consider the following two examples: This would be the default mode, using an extra memcopy but gives a safe implementation without dependencies on `reflect` and `unsafe`: Here is the same functionality, but uses the `.rodata` hack. The byte slice returned from this example can not be written to without generating a runtime error. The NoCompress option indicates that the supplied assets are *not* GZIP compressed before being turned into Go code. The data should still be accessed through a function call, so nothing changes in the API. This feature is useful if you do not care for compression, or the supplied resource is already compressed. Doing it again would not add any value and may even increase the size of the data. The default behaviour of the program is to use compression. The keys used in the `_bindata` map are the same as the input file name passed to `go-bindata`. This includes the path. In most cases, this is not desireable, as it puts potentially sensitive information in your code base. For this purpose, the tool supplies another command line flag `-prefix`. This accepts a portion of a path name, which should be stripped off from the map keys and function names. For example, running without the `-prefix` flag, we get: Running with the `-prefix` flag, we get: With the optional Tags field, you can specify any go build tags that must be fulfilled for the output file to be included in a build. This is useful when including binary data in multiple formats, where the desired format is specified at build time with the appropriate tags. The tags are appended to a `// +build` line in the beginning of the output file and must follow the build tags syntax specified by the go tool.

Package cbind provides tcell key event encoding, decoding and handling. The NewConfiguration example demonstrates how to use cbind. There are some limitations on reading keyboard input, which is explained in the tcell.EventKey documentation: https://godoc.org/github.com/gdamore/tcell#EventKey

Package null contains SQL types that consider zero input and null input as separate values, with convenient support for JSON and text marshaling. Types in this package will always encode to their null value if null. Use the zero subpackage if you want zero values and null to be treated the same.

Package run implements an actor-runner with deterministic teardown. It is somewhat similar to package errgroup, except it does not require actor goroutines to understand context semantics. This makes it suitable for use in more circumstances; for example, goroutines which are handling connections from net.Listeners, or scanning input from a closable io.Reader.

Package expression provides types and functions to create Amazon DynamoDB Expression strings, ExpressionAttributeNames maps, and ExpressionAttributeValues maps. The package represents the various DynamoDB Expressions as structs named accordingly. For example, ConditionBuilder represents a DynamoDB Condition Expression, an UpdateBuilder represents a DynamoDB Update Expression, and so on. The following example shows a sample ConditionExpression and how to build an equivalent ConditionBuilder In order to retrieve the formatted DynamoDB Expression strings, call the getter methods on the Expression struct. To create the Expression struct, call the Build() method on the Builder struct. Because some input structs, such as QueryInput, can have multiple DynamoDB Expressions, multiple structs representing various DynamoDB Expressions can be added to the Builder struct. The following example shows a generic usage of the whole package. The ExpressionAttributeNames and ExpressionAttributeValues member of the input struct must always be assigned when using the Expression struct because all item attribute names and values are aliased. That means that if the ExpressionAttributeNames and ExpressionAttributeValues member is not assigned with the corresponding Names() and Values() methods, the DynamoDB operation will run into a logic error.

Package demotools provides a set of tools that help you write code examples. **FileSystem** The filesystem is used to abstract the os module and allow for variations to be swapped out, such as mocks for testing. Package demotools provides a set of tools that help you write code examples. **Pausable** The pausable interface creates an easy to mock pausing object for testing. Package demotools provides a set of tools that help you write code examples. **Questioner** The questioner is used in interactive examples to ask for input from the user at a command prompt, validate the answer, and ask the question again, if needed. It is exposed through an interface so that it can be mocked for unit testing. A pre-written mock is provided in the testtools package.

Package vfsgen takes an http.FileSystem (likely at `go generate` time) and generates Go code that statically implements the provided http.FileSystem. Features: - Efficient generated code without unneccessary overhead. - Uses gzip compression internally (selectively, only for files that compress well). - Enables direct access to internal gzip compressed bytes via an optional interface. - Outputs `gofmt`ed Go code. This code will generate an assets_vfsdata.go file with `var assets http.FileSystem = ...` that statically implements the contents of "assets" directory. vfsgen is great to use with go generate directives. This code can go in an assets_gen.go file, which can then be invoked via "//go:generate go run assets_gen.go". The input virtual filesystem can read directly from disk, or it can be more involved.

Package csrf (gorilla/csrf) provides Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) prevention middleware for Go web applications & services. It includes: * The `csrf.Protect` middleware/handler provides CSRF protection on routes attached to a router or a sub-router. * A `csrf.Token` function that provides the token to pass into your response, whether that be a HTML form or a JSON response body. * ... and a `csrf.TemplateField` helper that you can pass into your `html/template` templates to replace a `{{ .csrfField }}` template tag with a hidden input field. gorilla/csrf is easy to use: add the middleware to individual handlers with the below: ... and then collect the token with `csrf.Token(r)` before passing it to the template, JSON body or HTTP header (you pick!). gorilla/csrf inspects the form body (first) and HTTP headers (second) on subsequent POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE/etc. requests for the token. Note that the authentication key passed to `csrf.Protect([]byte(key))` should be 32-bytes long and persist across application restarts. Generating a random key won't allow you to authenticate existing cookies and will break your CSRF validation. Here's the common use-case: HTML forms you want to provide CSRF protection for, in order to protect malicious POST requests being made: Note that the CSRF middleware will (by necessity) consume the request body if the token is passed via POST form values. If you need to consume this in your handler, insert your own middleware earlier in the chain to capture the request body. You can also send the CSRF token in the response header. This approach is useful if you're using a front-end JavaScript framework like Ember or Angular, or are providing a JSON API: If you're writing a client that's supposed to mimic browser behavior, make sure to send back the CSRF cookie (the default name is _gorilla_csrf, but this can be changed with the CookieName Option) along with either the X-CSRF-Token header or the gorilla.csrf.Token form field. In addition: getting CSRF protection right is important, so here's some background: * This library generates unique-per-request (masked) tokens as a mitigation against the BREACH attack (http://breachattack.com/). * The 'base' (unmasked) token is stored in the session, which means that multiple browser tabs won't cause a user problems as their per-request token is compared with the base token. * Operates on a "whitelist only" approach where safe (non-mutating) HTTP methods (GET, HEAD, OPTIONS, TRACE) are the *only* methods where token validation is not enforced. * The design is based on the battle-tested Django (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/ref/csrf/) and Ruby on Rails (http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionController/RequestForgeryProtection.html) approaches. * Cookies are authenticated and based on the securecookie (https://github.com/gorilla/securecookie) library. They're also Secure (issued over HTTPS only) and are HttpOnly by default, because sane defaults are important. * Go's `crypto/rand` library is used to generate the 32 byte (256 bit) tokens and the one-time-pad used for masking them. This library does not seek to be adventurous.

Package selenium provides a client to drive web browser-based automation and testing. See the example below for how to get started with this API. This package can depend on several binaries being available, depending on which browsers will be used and how. To avoid needing to manage these dependencies, use a cloud-based browser testing environment, like Sauce Labs, BrowserStack or similar. Otherwise, use the methods provided by this API to specify the paths to the dependencies, which will have to be downloaded separately. This example shows how to navigate to a http://play.golang.org page, input a short program, run it, and inspect its output. If you want to actually run this example:

pflag is a drop-in replacement for Go's flag package, implementing POSIX/GNU-style --flags. pflag is compatible with the GNU extensions to the POSIX recommendations for command-line options. See http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Argument-Syntax.html Usage: pflag is a drop-in replacement of Go's native flag package. If you import pflag under the name "flag" then all code should continue to function with no changes. There is one exception to this: if you directly instantiate the Flag struct there is one more field "Shorthand" that you will need to set. Most code never instantiates this struct directly, and instead uses functions such as String(), BoolVar(), and Var(), and is therefore unaffected. Define flags using flag.String(), Bool(), Int(), etc. This declares an integer flag, -flagname, stored in the pointer ip, with type *int. If you like, you can bind the flag to a variable using the Var() functions. Or you can create custom flags that satisfy the Value interface (with pointer receivers) and couple them to flag parsing by For such flags, the default value is just the initial value of the variable. After all flags are defined, call to parse the command line into the defined flags. Flags may then be used directly. If you're using the flags themselves, they are all pointers; if you bind to variables, they're values. After parsing, the arguments after the flag are available as the slice flag.Args() or individually as flag.Arg(i). The arguments are indexed from 0 through flag.NArg()-1. The pflag package also defines some new functions that are not in flag, that give one-letter shorthands for flags. You can use these by appending 'P' to the name of any function that defines a flag. Shorthand letters can be used with single dashes on the command line. Boolean shorthand flags can be combined with other shorthand flags. Command line flag syntax: Unlike the flag package, a single dash before an option means something different than a double dash. Single dashes signify a series of shorthand letters for flags. All but the last shorthand letter must be boolean flags. Flag parsing stops after the terminator "--". Unlike the flag package, flags can be interspersed with arguments anywhere on the command line before this terminator. Integer flags accept 1234, 0664, 0x1234 and may be negative. Boolean flags (in their long form) accept 1, 0, t, f, true, false, TRUE, FALSE, True, False. Duration flags accept any input valid for time.ParseDuration. The default set of command-line flags is controlled by top-level functions. The FlagSet type allows one to define independent sets of flags, such as to implement subcommands in a command-line interface. The methods of FlagSet are analogous to the top-level functions for the command-line flag set.

bindata converts any file into manageable Go source code. Useful for embedding binary data into a go program. The file data is optionally gzip compressed before being converted to a raw byte slice. The following paragraphs cover some of the customization options which can be specified in the Config struct, which must be passed into the Translate() call. When used with the `Debug` option, the generated code does not actually include the asset data. Instead, it generates function stubs which load the data from the original file on disk. The asset API remains identical between debug and release builds, so your code will not have to change. This is useful during development when you expect the assets to change often. The host application using these assets uses the same API in both cases and will not have to care where the actual data comes from. An example is a Go webserver with some embedded, static web content like HTML, JS and CSS files. While developing it, you do not want to rebuild the whole server and restart it every time you make a change to a bit of javascript. You just want to build and launch the server once. Then just press refresh in the browser to see those changes. Embedding the assets with the `debug` flag allows you to do just that. When you are finished developing and ready for deployment, just re-invoke `go-bindata` without the `-debug` flag. It will now embed the latest version of the assets. The `NoMemCopy` option will alter the way the output file is generated. It will employ a hack that allows us to read the file data directly from the compiled program's `.rodata` section. This ensures that when we call call our generated function, we omit unnecessary memcopies. The downside of this, is that it requires dependencies on the `reflect` and `unsafe` packages. These may be restricted on platforms like AppEngine and thus prevent you from using this mode. Another disadvantage is that the byte slice we create, is strictly read-only. For most use-cases this is not a problem, but if you ever try to alter the returned byte slice, a runtime panic is thrown. Use this mode only on target platforms where memory constraints are an issue. The default behaviour is to use the old code generation method. This prevents the two previously mentioned issues, but will employ at least one extra memcopy and thus increase memory requirements. For instance, consider the following two examples: This would be the default mode, using an extra memcopy but gives a safe implementation without dependencies on `reflect` and `unsafe`: Here is the same functionality, but uses the `.rodata` hack. The byte slice returned from this example can not be written to without generating a runtime error. The NoCompress option indicates that the supplied assets are *not* GZIP compressed before being turned into Go code. The data should still be accessed through a function call, so nothing changes in the API. This feature is useful if you do not care for compression, or the supplied resource is already compressed. Doing it again would not add any value and may even increase the size of the data. The default behaviour of the program is to use compression. The keys used in the `_bindata` map are the same as the input file name passed to `go-bindata`. This includes the path. In most cases, this is not desirable, as it puts potentially sensitive information in your code base. For this purpose, the tool supplies another command line flag `-prefix`. This accepts a portion of a path name, which should be stripped off from the map keys and function names. For example, running without the `-prefix` flag, we get: Running with the `-prefix` flag, we get: With the optional Tags field, you can specify any go build tags that must be fulfilled for the output file to be included in a build. This is useful when including binary data in multiple formats, where the desired format is specified at build time with the appropriate tags. The tags are appended to a `// +build` line in the beginning of the output file and must follow the build tags syntax specified by the go tool.
