5. Enjoy this project

## Initalization

`go mod init` creating a go mod file (like a node file for nodejs projects)

## Required Packages

1. `go get github.com/githubnemo/CompileDaemon` and install it, so that it can be run as command-line tool `go install github.com/githubnemo/CompileDaemon` watch files for changes and rebuild
2. `go get github.com/joho/godotenv` Easy to load environment variables
3. `go get -u github.com/gin-gonic/gin` Gin Framework for Http Server
4. `go get -u gorm.io/gorm` and `go get -u gorm.io/driver/postgres` Go ORM Library for Go
5. `go get -u github.com/sirupsen/logrus` Package for logging in a Gin application
6. `go get github.com/redis/go-redis/v9` Package for Redis go

#### for JWT authentication

## Declaring Models

https://gorm.io/docs/models.html visit the link to see how to declare your models.
we are using the following model

```go

type User struct {
gorm.Model
Name string
}
// equals
type User struct {
ID uint `gorm:"primaryKey"`
CreatedAt time.Time
UpdatedAt time.Time
DeletedAt gorm.DeletedAt `gorm:"index"`
Name string
```

to make auto `db.AutoMigrate(&Product{})` visit link https://gorm.io/docs/index.html

as migrate/migrate.go is created run the migration using
`go run migrate/migrate.go`, It will make the posts table in the database.

## Go ORM Create

visit the link https://gorm.io/docs/create.html for Go ORM

## Important Commands

- `docker-compose up --build`
