TPL-GO Developer Guide

Build Commands

• make - Format and build project
• make deps - Get all dependencies
• make test - Run all tests

Test Commands

• go test -v ./... - Run all tests verbosely
• go test -v -run=TestName - Run a specific test by name

Code Style

• Use goimports for formatting (run via make)
• Follow standard Go formatting conventions
• Group imports: standard library first, then third-party
• Use PascalCase for exported types/methods, camelCase for variables
• Add comments for public API and complex logic
• Place related functionality in logically named files

Error Handling

• Use custom Error type with detailed context
• Include error wrapping with Unwrap() method
• Return errors with proper context information (line, position)

Testing

• Write table-driven tests with clear input/output expectations
• Use package tpl_test for external testing perspective
• Include detailed error messages (expected vs. actual)
• Test every exported function and error case

Dependencies

• Minimum Go version: 1.23.0
• External dependencies managed through go modules

Modernization Notes

• Use errors.Is() and errors.As() for error checking
• Replace interface{} with any type alias
• Replace type assertions with type switches where appropriate
• Use generics for type-safe operations
• Implement context cancellation handling for long operations
• Add proper docstring comments for exported functions and types
• Use log/slog for structured logging
• Add linting and static analysis tools
