Sample Go API service review
This sample shows the shape of the paid deliverable. A real review is tailored from the buyer's Go service repo, route list, database shape, logs, and deployment target.
Example finding
- Service state: Gin routes, JWT auth, Swagger docs, file uploads, and GORM migrations are wired in one startup path, so environment or database failures can block unrelated route checks.
- Main risk: auto-migrating production tables, loading `.env` as a hard requirement, and using broad CORS defaults can turn a demo service into a fragile deployment.
- Reliability decision: separate config validation, database connectivity, migration policy, route registration, and upload storage checks before deploying behind a public proxy.
Example next experiments
- Add a startup checklist for required environment variables, DB reachability, migration mode, upload directory, and JWT secret presence.
- Test unauthenticated, authenticated, and role-sensitive routes with table-driven HTTP tests.
- Move Swagger/CORS settings behind explicit environment profiles before public deployment.
- Only then package the service with repeatable run, migration, backup, and rollback commands.
