Simple Go/GraphQL/PostgreSQL template

Purpose

Have a good starting point for any project that needs a graphql, go, and postgres backend. It's a very light solution that is meant to be customized and built upon, not a full blown application with opinionated thoughts.

Features

• Creates a connection to a PostgreSQL database through PGX Pool and a url defined in the environment variable DATABASE_URL
• Simple user authentication
• Initial middleware for dependency injection with the database connection
• Initial test showing an example of how to test with a database connection
• Resolvers for logging in and registering a user

To Be Done

• Setup automatic authentication for routes/resolvers through middleware
• Setup frontend application to be served through the static assets route
  • This is for ease of deployment and development, your production needs may be different where the frontend and backend are seperated from each other entirely.
• Integrate GraphQL with the frontend integration

Commands

go run github.com/99designs/gqlgen generate to regenerate the graphql generated files
