Talkie is a framework for developing Microservices in Go. It leverages Bazel to abstract and generate boilerplate code involved in a Microservice system.
Part of this is accomplished by generating the main entrypoint of the Microservice, requesting from the user a gRPC service definition (the Proto library) and the gRPC service implementation (the Go library).
Common features (e.g. tracing and logging) can all be injected from this main entrypoint. Images and deployment manifests can also be generated from this framework. These opinionated features make the overall system consistent, focusing on the developer productivity implementing the business logic of the system instead of dealing with toil work.
See the examples directory for a glimpse of how to use this framework.
To update go targets and dependencies, make the required changes to the go files (import and use), then run:
bazel run tidy
To find all targets available from a talkie macro, run:
bazel query //{talkie macro folder name}:all
ex:
bazel query //examples/helloworld_http:all
should see response similar to:
//examples/helloworld_http:helloworld_http_client
//examples/helloworld_http:helloworld_http_entrypoints
//examples/helloworld_http:helloworld_http
then, you can run the server to start the service:
bazel run //examples/helloworld_http
This will start the service and expose all the endpoints as you created them.
