Membina API RESTful dengan Go Fiber: Plat Dandang Berinspirasi Ekspres

A boilerplate/starter project for quickly building RESTful APIs using Go, Fiber, and PostgreSQL. Inspired by the Express boilerplate.

The app comes with many built-in features, such as authentication using JWT and Google OAuth2, request validation, unit and integration tests, docker support, API documentation, pagination, etc. For more details, check the features list below.

API Documentation

To view the list of available APIs and their specifications, run the server and go to http://localhost:3000/v1/docs in your browser.

This documentation page is automatically generated using the Swag definitions written as comments in the controller files.

See ? Declarative Comments Format.

API Endpoints

List of available routes:

Auth routes:\
POST /v1/auth/register - register\
POST /v1/auth/login - login\
POST /v1/auth/logout - logout\
POST /v1/auth/refresh-tokens - refresh auth tokens\
POST /v1/auth/forgot-password - send reset password email\
POST /v1/auth/reset-password - reset password\
POST /v1/auth/send-verification-email - send verification email\
POST /v1/auth/verify-email - verify email\
GET /v1/auth/google - login with google account

User routes:\
POST /v1/users - create a user\
GET /v1/users - get all users\
GET /v1/users/:userId - get user\
PATCH /v1/users/:userId - update user\
DELETE /v1/users/:userId - delete user

Error Handling

The app includes a custom error handling mechanism, which can be found in the src/utils/error.go file.

It also utilizes the Fiber-Recover middleware to gracefully recover from any panic that might occur in the handler stack, preventing the app from crashing unexpectedly.

The error handling process sends an error response in the following format:

{
  "code": 404,
  "status": "error",
  "message": "Not found"
}

Fiber provides a custom error struct using fiber.NewError(), where you can specify a response code and a message. This error can then be returned from any part of your code, and Fiber's ErrorHandler will automatically catch it.

For example, if you are trying to retrieve a user from the database but the user is not found, and you want to return a 404 error, the code might look like this:

func (s *userService) GetUserByID(c *fiber.Ctx, id string) {
    user := new(model.User)

    err := s.DB.WithContext(c.Context()).First(user, "id = ?", id).Error

    if errors.Is(err, gorm.ErrRecordNotFound) {
        return fiber.NewError(fiber.StatusNotFound, "User not found")
    }
}

Validation

Request data is validated using Package validator. Check the documentation for more details on how to write validations.

The validation schemas are defined in the src/validation directory and are used within the services by passing them to the validation logic. In this example, the CreateUser method in the userService uses the validation.CreateUser schema to validate incoming request data before processing it. The validation is handled by the Validate.Struct method, which checks the request data against the schema.

import (
    "app/src/model"
    "app/src/validation"

    "github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2"
)

func (s *userService) CreateUser(c *fiber.Ctx, req validation.CreateUser) (*model.User, error) {
    if err := s.Validate.Struct(&req); err != nil {
        return nil, err
    }
}

Authentication

To require authentication for certain routes, you can use the Auth middleware.

import (
    "app/src/controllers"
    m "app/src/middleware"
    "app/src/services"

    "github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2"
)

func SetupRoutes(app *fiber.App, u services.UserService, t services.TokenService) {
  userController := controllers.NewUserController(u, t)
    app.Post("/users", m.Auth(u), userController.CreateUser)
}

These routes require a valid JWT access token in the Authorization request header using the Bearer schema. If the request does not contain a valid access token, an Unauthorized (401) error is thrown.

Generating Access Tokens:

An access token can be generated by making a successful call to the register (POST /v1/auth/register) or login (POST /v1/auth/login) endpoints. The response of these endpoints also contains refresh tokens (explained below).

An access token is valid for 30 minutes. You can modify this expiration time by changing the JWT_ACCESS_EXP_MINUTES environment variable in the .env file.

Refreshing Access Tokens:

After the access token expires, a new access token can be generated, by making a call to the refresh token endpoint (POST /v1/auth/refresh-tokens) and sending along a valid refresh token in the request body. This call returns a new access token and a new refresh token.

A refresh token is valid for 30 days. You can modify this expiration time by changing the JWT_REFRESH_EXP_DAYS environment variable in the .env file.

Authorization

The Auth middleware can also be used to require certain rights/permissions to access a route.

import (
    "app/src/controllers"
    m "app/src/middleware"
    "app/src/services"

    "github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2"
)

func SetupRoutes(app *fiber.App, u services.UserService, t services.TokenService) {
  userController := controllers.NewUserController(u, t)
    app.Post("/users", m.Auth(u, "manageUsers"), userController.CreateUser)
}

In the example above, an authenticated user can access this route only if that user has the manageUsers permission.

The permissions are role-based. You can view the permissions/rights of each role in the src/config/roles.go file.

If the user making the request does not have the required permissions to access this route, a Forbidden (403) error is thrown.

Logging

Import the logger from src/utils/logrus.go. It is using the Logrus logging library.

Logging should be done according to the following severity levels (ascending order from most important to least important):

import "app/src/utils"

utils.Log.Panic('message') // Calls panic() after logging
utils.Log.Fatal('message'); // Calls os.Exit(1) after logging
utils.Log.Error('message');
utils.Log.Warn('message');
utils.Log.Info('message');
utils.Log.Debug('message');
utils.Log.Trace('message');

Note:
API request information (request url, response code, timestamp, etc.) are also automatically logged (using Fiber-Logger).

Linting

Linting is done using golangci-lint

See ? How to install golangci-lint

To modify the golangci-lint configuration, update the .golangci.yml file.
