Add to an existing project
You can adopt the SDK one module at a time. Start with initialization and the module that solves your immediate need.
1. Install the version
go get github.com/colibriproject-dev/colibri-sdk-go@v0.2.2
2. Configure the required variables
ENVIRONMENT=development
APP_NAME=my-existing-service
APP_TYPE=service
CLOUD=none
InitializeApp() automatically looks for a .env file in the working
directory. In production, prefer variables injected by the platform.
3. Initialize the application
import colibri "github.com/colibriproject-dev/colibri-sdk-go"
func main() {
colibri.InitializeApp()
// Existing application initialization.
}
The alias is optional: the root package is already named colibri.
4. Adopt a module
To migrate an existing HTTP server:
import "github.com/colibriproject-dev/colibri-sdk-go/pkg/web/restserver"
func main() {
colibri.InitializeApp()
restserver.AddRoutes(routes)
restserver.ListenAndServe()
}
Database, cache, messaging, and storage have their own Initialize() function.
See the application lifecycle.
Migration notes
ListenAndServe()blocks; call it after registering routes and middleware.- Do not initialize modules the service does not use.
- Propagate
context.Contextthrough handlers, use cases, and infrastructure. - Run existing tests after migrating each module.
- Check compatibility before upgrading.
