Example full stack app with an API-first and Database-first approach with OpenAPI v3, sqlc+xo codegen, generated backend, frontend client and validators and an unimaginative title.

Your OpenAPI v3 spec and database schema become a real single source of truth. Any change to it is validated and cascades down to:

• frontend: autogenerated complex and customizable UI forms based on OpenAPI spec converted to JSON schema. Generated API queries (orval). User-friendly generated client-side validation (via openapi-typescript-validator and customized kin-openapi error messages).

• backend: generated Gin server (custom oapi-codegen and post-generation). Request and response validation (kin-openapi). Generated CRUD and index queries via xo and custom queries via sqlc by leveraging custom xo template generation that ensures compatibility. Integrated OpenID Connect client via zitadel/oidc (and dockerized authorization server for development in cmd/oidc-server based on reusable mock server with generics in oidc-server).

  Queries generated by xo use pgx exclusively and includes pagination, indexes, soft delete handling, extensible queries and joins via options, and much more (see xo integration tests) that will get you 95% there without resorting to ad-hoc query. Found an edge case or want additional functionality just for your DB needs? Just edit xo-templates/, since codegen is interpreted by yaegi. Additionally, by using pgx, models can be easily re-exported as usable OpenAPI schemas via openapi-go and some magic Bash and Go utility programs that keeps generated code in order.

  Since using DB models in all backend layers is considered an anti-pattern at some level of model complexity, you're not tied to generated schemas from DB models. Any struct can become a spec schema via openapi-go struct tags and some simple bash code behind to grab them, with minimal caveats. See rest package. It is even possible to reference openapi spec models in your xo generated models, as long as they don't create any circular dependencies. Since at the last generation step we generate all spec schemas back to Go models with oapi-codegen to a shared models package, this is not an issue (although you'd have to choose what models to use, since there'll duplication for the models that were already generated by openapi-go in the first place - ideally, use the originals).

Additionally, it features OpenTelemetry in both browser (automatic and manual instrumentation) and backend services (manual instrumentation) via Jaeger, TimescaleDB and Promscale (certified storage backend).

You get dynamic x function and x options parameters documentation and autocompletion (complete -C project project) for free (from your own source itself and comments) so they're always up to date without any repetitive work: add/remove functions and flags at will.

All calls to x functions are logged (distinguishing stdout and stderr) for easier parallel execution and nested calls tracking:

And help for any x function is easily searchable when the app inevitably grows with --x-help:

Fill in .env.template's:

find . -name ".env*.template"

Assuming a recent Ubuntu release:

sudo apt install direnv
direnv allow # you can also customize direnv with .envrc.local as you would a regular .envrc, see example

cp openapi-go.code-workspace.example openapi-go.code-workspace # edit as desired

project bootstrap # dependency and tools interactive installation
project gen
project run-dev

Docs WIP:

• Backend generation pipeline
• Frontend generation pipeline
• External tooling summary and upgrades

Simplified:

• v0.2: discard OpenAPITools/openapi-generator with custom postgeneration for deepmap/oapi-codegen. Any change to fix broken generator functionality requires opening a PR or a disturbing amount of postgeneration code. Templates getting out of hand and also require a PR for custom functions. oapi-codegen much more extensible and idiomatic being already Go and properly maintained.

• Nested functions in project's x functions will break automatic documentation for that particular function due to a bug in declare where the last nested function line number is returned instead of the parent.

• Meaningful project name.

• System design docs/diagrams.

• Oauth2 as openapi spec with endpoints clearly documented based on RFCs Can generate a mock with e.g. openapi-mock.
