Using the Gotoolbox Module 🚀

Refer to the examples in the {{.module_name_pkg}}/examples module to see how to use the module's functions.

---

Usage through the Dagger CLI 🚀

List all the functions available in the module:

# enter into the module's directory
cd gotoolbox

# list all the functions available in the module
dagger develop && dagger functions

Call a function:

# call a function
# dagger call <function-name> [arguments]
dagger call github.com/excoriate/daggerverse/gotoolbox@version <function-name> [arguments]

---

Testing 🧪

This module includes a testing module that aims to test the functionality of the Gotoolbox module. The tests are written in Go and can be run using the following command:

## Run the tests using the just command
just test gotoolbox

Developer Experience 🛠️

If you'd like to contribute, mostly we use Just to automate tasks and Nix to manage the development environment. You can use the following commands to get started:

# initialize the pre-commit hooks
just init
# run CI or common things locally
just golint gotoolbox
# run the tests
just test gotoolbox
# Run the entire CI tasks locally
just cilocal gotoolbox

Examples (aka Recipes) 🍲

Additionally, this module brings a new Daggerverse functionality that allows to automatically generate the module's documentation using an special (sub) module called {{.module_name_pkg}}/examples/sdk. This module contains a set of examples hat demonstrate how to use the module's functions.

To generate the documentation It's important to notice that each example function in order to be rendered in the documentation, it must be preprocessed by module's name, in this case (camelCase) gotoolbox.

NOTE: The just command entails the use of the Justfile for task automation. If you don't have it, don't worry, you just need Nix to run the tasks using the dev-shell built-in command: nix develop --impure --extra-experimental-features nix-command --extra-experimental-features flakes
