golangid/candi

Candi is a modular Go framework that provides a standardized infrastructure for building microservices, featuring a CLI for project scaffolding and a factory-based architecture for managing application lifecycle. It offers built-in support for multiple communication protocols including REST, gRPC, GraphQL, and various message brokers like Kafka, RabbitMQ, and Redis. The system includes comprehensive utilities for caching, distributed locking, background job scheduling, and task queue management, all integrated with OpenTelemetry for observability and structured logging.

How it got here

2020 · Candi library v1.20.0 release and repository restructuring

This period marks the transition of the codebase from a monolithic application to a reusable library and CLI tool, centered around the Candi library v1.20.0 release. The work involved a comprehensive refactoring of configuration, dependency injection, and server implementations, while introducing new features like GraphQL support, cron workers, and interactive CLI scaffolding.

2021–2022 · Event-driven architecture and testing infrastructure

The codebase introduced new workers for PostgreSQL CDC and RabbitMQ, alongside a centralized application factory for environment-based configuration. This period also established a comprehensive testing infrastructure by generating mocks for core interfaces and utilities, supporting the new asynchronous and scheduled components.

About this page

  • The description of this project is derived from its own commit history, not from its README.
  • The score is its highest published measurement, taken on 3 August 2026 at a pinned commit. It is not a live figure and does not change until the project is measured again.
  • Measured at commit 21d242732f — the exact code this score is about.
  • Scored under rubric rubric-2026.08.19. Score the same commit under that rubric and you get the same number.
