Monolith Database and Services
Use this skill when
- •Modifying DB initialization or model migration behavior.
- •Implementing external integrations in
app/services/.
Database flow
- •Initialized by
db.InitDB(). - •Uses GORM with SQLite driver by default.
- •AutoMigrate runs for registered models at startup.
Model registration rule
Any new model must be included in db/db.go AutoMigrate call.
The model generator handles this automatically.
Services pattern
- •Service code belongs under
app/services/(e.g.,app/services/email). - •Keep HTTP controllers thin; push external API logic into services.
- •Source environment settings from
app/config/config.go.
Email specifics
- •Uses
MAILGUN_DOMAIN,MAILGUN_API_KEY, andMAILGUN_API_BASE. - •Missing mail variables are warned by config init.
