@err0r500 thanks for your amazing work! Go is just a hobby for me and I'm having fun. I'm learning a lot from your project.

I'm trying to understand if multi-tenancy column/table based is something to be "included", if it is "related to" the repository, usecase or handler level.

Example

Adding tenant.go model like this:

package domain

type Tenant struct {
	ID   int64  `json:"id"`
	Name string `json:"name"`
}

to other models like this:

package domain

type User struct {
	Address string
	TenantID  int64  `json:"tenant_id"` // <--- here
	Tenant               *Tenant // <--- here
	UserAddressChecker
}

Question

Let's say my tenant_id is a field of a User struct in context on every request (authenticated by a third party middleware).

Where do you think I should do something like below? In handler, usecase or repository?

tenantID := GetTenantIDFromUserInContext()
article.TenantID = tenantID

Doubts about fetch queries

Today, before I discover the amazing "clean architecture", I'm using a where clause in my SQL queries (go-pg/pg#1179), like this:

// Used as: "q.Apply(FilterByTenant(ctx))"
func FilterByTenant(ctx context.Context) func(q *orm.Query) (*orm.Query, error) {
	user := ctx.Value(auth.CTXKeyUser).(*models.User)
	return func(q *orm.Query) (*orm.Query, error) {
		q = q.Where("tenant_id = ?", user.TenantID)
		return q, nil
	}
}

I think maybe the concept of FilterByTenant in the usecase layer is an unnecessary repetition and should belong to lower levels like repositories?

But I also think that the main multi-tenancy logic does not change with the change of possible repository types (Postgres, Mysql, Mongo, microservices).

What do you think about it?
