myLib program

Description

I wrote this sample program to demonstrate my skills in Go and REST API development.

myLib is a program divided into two projects, a REST API and a CLI client.

The program allows you to manage a personal book collection as follows:

• Add and manage books into the system, including some basic information about those books (title, author, published date, edition, description, genre)
• Create and manage collections of books
• List all books, all collections and filter book lists by author, genre or a range of publication dates.

Documentation

• Step 1: Usage_Step1.md
• Step 2: RestApi_Step2.md
• Step 3: Database_Step3.md

Installation

To install the programs, run:

For the API

make api

For the client:

make client

Run the REST API

myLibApi

Run the Client

myLib

Notes

For this assignment, I only implemented a slice of the program: author management. The client will allow you to create, update and delete authors.

The REST API provides all the methods to create, update and delete authors. It also lists authors and filters the results by the author last name.
