Prerequisites

• Go ^1.19.1
• Docker ^4.12.0
• Docker Compose ^2.10.2
• jq ^1.6.0
• swaggo ^1.16.2
• air ^1.45.0

Getting Started

1. Initialize the app for the first time:

   make provision

2. Generate swagger API docs:

   make specs

3. Run the development server:

   make dev

4. Documentation Apis: GoCore uses swagger open api, navigate to /docs/index.html for getting the list endpoints. The application runs as an HTTP server at port 8080. You can log in as superadmin to the application by:

POST /login HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:8080
Content-Type: application/json

{
    "username": "superadmin",
    "password": "superadmin123!@#"
}

Then grab the access_token for authorization HTTP header:

GET /v1/users HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:8080
Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ...
