Service Scaffold Template

Generate a complete service skeleton with all standard directories and stub files.

Placeholders

• {{Name}} — PascalCase service/aggregate name (e.g., Training)
• {{name}} — camelCase (e.g., training)
• {{name_snake}} — snake_case (e.g., training)
• {{name_lower}} — all lowercase (e.g., training)
• {{module}} — Go module path from go.mod

Files to Create

1. domain/{{name_lower}}/{{name_snake}}.go

package {{name_lower}}

import (
	"errors"
	"time"
)

type {{Name}} struct {
	uuid      string
	createdAt time.Time
}

func New{{Name}}(uuid string) (*{{Name}}, error) {
	if uuid == "" {
		return nil, errors.New("empty {{name_lower}} uuid")
	}

	return &{{Name}}{
		uuid:      uuid,
		createdAt: time.Now(),
	}, nil
}

func Unmarshal{{Name}}FromDatabase(uuid string, createdAt time.Time) *{{Name}} {
	return &{{Name}}{
		uuid:      uuid,
		createdAt: createdAt,
	}
}

func (t {{Name}}) UUID() string {
	return t.uuid
}

func (t {{Name}}) CreatedAt() time.Time {
	return t.createdAt
}

2. domain/{{name_lower}}/repository.go

package {{name_lower}}

import "context"

type Repository interface {
	Get{{Name}}(ctx context.Context, uuid string) (*{{Name}}, error)
	Update{{Name}}(ctx context.Context, uuid string,
		updateFn func(t *{{Name}}) (*{{Name}}, error)) error
}

3. domain/{{name_lower}}/errors.go

package {{name_lower}}

import "errors"

var (
	ErrNotFound = errors.New("{{name_lower}} not found")
)

4. app/app.go

package app

import (
	"{{module}}/app/command"
	"{{module}}/app/query"
)

type Application struct {
	Commands Commands
	Queries  Queries
}

type Commands struct {
	// Add command handlers here, e.g.:
	// Create{{Name}} command.Create{{Name}}Handler
}

type Queries struct {
	// Add query handlers here, e.g.:
	// {{Name}}ByUUID query.{{Name}}ByUUIDHandler
}

5. app/command/.gitkeep

Create empty directory placeholder.

6. app/query/.gitkeep

Create empty directory placeholder.

7. ports/http.go

package ports

import (
	"{{module}}/app"
)

type HttpServer struct {
	app app.Application
}

func NewHttpServer(application app.Application) HttpServer {
	return HttpServer{app: application}
}

8. adapters/memory_{{name_snake}}_repository.go

package adapters

import (
	"context"
	"sync"

	"{{module}}/domain/{{name_lower}}"
)

type Memory{{Name}}Repository struct {
	{{name_lower}}s map[string]{{name_lower}}.{{Name}}
	mu             sync.RWMutex
}

func NewMemory{{Name}}Repository() *Memory{{Name}}Repository {
	return &Memory{{Name}}Repository{
		{{name_lower}}s: make(map[string]{{name_lower}}.{{Name}}),
	}
}

func (r *Memory{{Name}}Repository) Get{{Name}}(ctx context.Context, uuid string) (*{{name_lower}}.{{Name}}, error) {
	r.mu.RLock()
	defer r.mu.RUnlock()

	t, ok := r.{{name_lower}}s[uuid]
	if !ok {
		return nil, {{name_lower}}.ErrNotFound
	}

	return &t, nil
}

func (r *Memory{{Name}}Repository) Update{{Name}}(
	ctx context.Context,
	uuid string,
	updateFn func(t *{{name_lower}}.{{Name}}) (*{{name_lower}}.{{Name}}, error),
) error {
	r.mu.Lock()
	defer r.mu.Unlock()

	current, ok := r.{{name_lower}}s[uuid]
	if !ok {
		return {{name_lower}}.ErrNotFound
	}

	updated, err := updateFn(&current)
	if err != nil {
		return err
	}

	r.{{name_lower}}s[uuid] = *updated
	return nil
}

9. service/application.go

package service

import (
	"context"

	"{{module}}/adapters"
	"{{module}}/app"
)

func NewApplication(ctx context.Context) app.Application {
	{{name_lower}}Repository := adapters.NewMemory{{Name}}Repository()
	_ = {{name_lower}}Repository // wire into handlers

	return app.Application{
		Commands: app.Commands{},
		Queries:  app.Queries{},
	}
}

Post-Creation Instructions

After creating the service skeleton:

1. Add your first command with /threedots scaffold command <ActionName>
2. Add your first query with /threedots scaffold query <QueryName>
3. Wire them in service/application.go
4. Add HTTP/gRPC handlers in ports/
