issue with pflag flagset
My understanding is that you can use pflag as a drop in replacement of the standard lib's flag (import flag "github.com/spf13/pflag"). So it can be used as a standalone lib I suppose.
-
Which packages do you recommend for building cli tools?
I realy enjoyed the patched version from spf13 with "--" support https://github.com/spf13/pflag
-
Define custom command-line flag types in Go 1.19
Nice, but Cobra (with pflag underneath) is so, so better.
-
-h --help -help help --? -? ????
Not by default on stdlib. There are libraries available though - https://github.com/spf13/pflag
-
Coral, a friendly Cobra fork with nearly all its features, but only 4 dependencies
Flag functionality is provided by the pflag library, a fork of the flag standard library which maintains the same interface while adding POSIX compliance.
-
xflags: An approach to command line flags with support for subcommands, positional args, environment variables, etc.
How does it compare to https://github.com/spf13/pflag ?
-
The flag package: strange but good?
spf13 has a drop in pflag that does the - short and -- long flags.
-
What are your favorite packages to use?
oklog/ulid to generate IDs. coreos/go-oidc for validating JWTs I get from auth. google/go-cmp for comparing structs in tests (unless the project is already using Testify). spf13/pflag because life's too short for Go's flag handling. getkin/kin-openapi for validating reqests/responses against my OpenAPI spec (in tests).
-
akamensky/argparse: Argparse for Golang. Just because "flag" sucks!
What are the benefits of this package over the widely used spf13/pflag?
-
Go’s highly modular nature makes it particularly good for situations where requirements are changing or evolving.

Migrating Next.js App to GO + Templ & HTMX
sqlx for the database driver.

Python: Just Write SQL
We've always used https://github.com/jmoiron/sqlx which is just the standard package + mapping to/from structs.
-
Golang equivalent of MyBatis/iBatis
You can use this https://github.com/jmoiron/sqlx
-
REST API with Go, Chi, MySQL and sqlx
I will be using sqlx to execute queries and map columns to struct fields and vice versa, sqlx is a library which provides a set of extensions on go's standard database/sql library.
- PHP to Golang
-
Best sqlc alternative for dynamic queries?
sqlx + squirrel ftw
-
Does Go, has something similar to Laravel eloquent (ORM) ?
I'd rather suggest the use of tools more aligned with the core concepts of the language such as sqlx, which is an extension of the database/sql standard library. It allows you to use models/structs to map your tables but you have more control over the SQL statements you use to perform queries and the like. You can combine sqlx with Squirrel to build queries from composable parts.

Tools besides Go for a newbie
IDE: use whatever make you productive. I personally use vscode. VCS: git, as golang communities use github heavily as base for many libraries. AFAIK Linter: use staticcheck for linting as it looks like mostly used linting tool in go, supported by many also. In Vscode it will be recommended once you install go plugin. Libraries/Framework: actually the standard libraries already included many things you need, decent enough for your day-to-day development cycles(e.g. `net/http`). But here are things for extra: - Struct fields validator: validator - Http server lib: chi router , httprouter , fasthttp (for non standard http implementations, but fast) - Web Framework: echo , gin , fiber , beego , etc - Http client lib: most already covered by stdlib(net/http), so you rarely need extra lib for this, but if you really need some are: resty - CLI: cobra - Config: godotenv , viper - DB Drivers: sqlx , postgre , sqlite , mysql - nosql: redis , mongodb , elasticsearch - ORM: gorm , entgo , sqlc(codegen) - JS Transpiler: gopherjs - GUI: fyne - grpc: grpc - logging: zerolog - test: testify , gomock , dockertest - and many others you can find here

Where Is the Spring Framework for Go?
This is the same situation I saw 20 years ago. Back then, all the managers were pushing development in Oracle tools. Those managers grew up on Oracle and Java was too modern for them. Now the situation is similar. Managers used to do things in Java and now they are still pushing Java. In fact, today Java brings nothing but problems. When I see a new project starting on Java it is always some big desperation. For a comparison of Java and Go, just look at the documentation for SQL. For go: https://pkg.go.dev/database/sql (31 pages) and maybe https://jmoiron.github.io/sqlx/ (12 pages). In Java only one class is 59 pages (https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/sql/ResultSet.html) and look how many of those documents there are: https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/13/docs/api/java.sql/java/sql/package-summary.html and on top of that we have javax.sql - https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/javax/sql/package-summary.html And even then you use Hibernate for example, where the documentation has 11 manuals and of those the User Guide has 353 pages - https://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/orm/6.2/userguide/html\_single/Hibernate\_User\_Guide.html
