Adding A New Sql Crud Microservice

Step 1: Determine the Noun and Hostname

Determine the singular noun representing the object being persisted, for example, "User", "Notebook", "Sales Order", etc. In subsequent steps, mynoun is used as a placeholder for the lowercase form of this noun with spaces removed (e.g. user, notebook, salesorder).

Determine the hostname. The hostname is how this microservice will be addressable. It must be unique across the application. Use reverse domain notation based on the module path, up to and including the name of the project. For example, if the module path is github.com/mycompany/myproject/some/path/mynoun, set the hostname to mynoun.path.some.myproject. Only letters a-z, numbers 0-9, hyphens - and the dot . separator are allowed in the hostname.

Step 2: Create a Directory Structure for the New Microservice

Each microservice must be placed in a separate directory. Create a new directory for the new microservice. For the directory name, use mynoun with only lowercase letters a through z, for example, user, notebook or salesorder.

In smaller projects, place the new directory under the root directory of the project. In larger projects, consider using a nested directory structure to group similar microservices together.

mkdir -p mynoun

Step 3: Copy Template Files

The .claude/skills/sequel/add-microservice/busstop directory contains the canonical implementation code for the noun BusStop. Use cp or a similar tool to copy verbatim the content of the busstop template directory to the microservice's directory mynoun. Do not read the files.

The directory structure should look like this.

myproject/
└── mynoun/
    ├── busstopapi/
    └── resources/

IMPORTANT: File names in the following steps are relative to the new microservice directory mynoun, unless indicated otherwise.

Rename the directory busstopapi to mynounapi.

The directory structure should look like this.

myproject/
└── mynoun/
    ├── mynounapi/
    └── resources/

Step 4: Find and Replace

CRITICAL: This step must be scoped to the microservice directory only. Do not perform it on the project root.

Use sed or a similar tool to perform the following case-sensitive find-and-replace operations on ALL files in the microservice directory. Do not read the files.

Perform these replacements in order:

1. Replace github.com/microbus-io/fabric/busstop with the package path of this microservice, e.g. github.com/mycompany/myproject/mynoun
2. Replace busstopapi with the name of the API directory mynounapi
3. Replace busstop.hostname with the hostname of this microservice
4. Replace BusStop with the singular noun of this microservice in PascalCase, i.e. MyNoun
5. Replace bus stops with the plural noun of this microservice in lower case (with spaces between words), i.e. my nouns
6. Replace bus stop with the singular noun of this microservice in lower case (with spaces between words), i.e. my noun
7. Replace busstop with the singular noun of this microservice in lowercase (no spaces between words), i.e. mynoun
8. Replace bus_stop with the singular noun of this microservice in snake_case, i.e. my_noun
9. Replace bus-stop with the singular noun of this microservice in kebab-case, i.e. my-noun
10. Replace _CIPHER_KEY_____________________ with a unique 32-character random base64 string (characters A-Z, a-z, 0-9, +, /)
11. Replace _CIPHER_NONCE___________________ with a 32-character random base64 string (characters A-Z, a-z, 0-9, +, /)
12. Replace _SEQUENCE_ with an 8-character random hexadecimal string

Run go fmt on the microservice directory to reformat the Go source files.

Step 5: Add to Main App

Find main/main.go relative to the project root. Add the new microservice to the app in the main function. Add the appropriate import statement at the top of the file.

import (
	// ...
	"github.com/mycompany/myproject/mynoun"
)

func main() {
	// ...
	app.Add(
		// HINT: Add solution microservices here
		mynoun.NewService(),
	)
	// ...
}

Step 6: Add to Config File

Look for config.local.yaml at the root of the project. If the file does not exist, create it.

If a value already exists for SQLDataSourceName under all in config.local.yaml, skip the remainder of this step.

Add the data source name secrets under all.
