REST API Development with Redis

A standardized way to access and interact with resources on the internet using HTTP methods like GET and POST. It ensures uniformity regardless of programming language.

A function hosted on the web that provides a set of APIs (Application Program Interfaces) for consumption by other services. It can be accessed from web apps, mobile apps, or other services.

A data format that uses a human-readable text-based syntax. It's widely used for data exchange on the internet, making it easy to understand and parse.

A method used to represent data in a structured manner, which defines the specific attributes or fields that make up a piece of data. For example, a blog post might be represented as a data structure with fields like 'topic', 'text', and 'comments'.

A type of data structure in the context of a blog, that contains fields like 'topic', 'text', and 'comments' to represent a blog post. It's used to represent and organize the information associated with a blog post.

A function or set of functions that allow different services to interact with each other. These interactions can involve requesting data, performing actions, or exchanging information.

A key-value database that provides a simple and efficient way to store and retrieve data. It is often used as a mock database for applications in development or for applications that require fast data access.

A programming language that is popular for its simplicity and performance. It is commonly used for building web services, network applications, and system administration.

A data structure in a RESTful API representing a specific resource, accessed through a unique URL path.

The method used to interact with the API, such as GET, POST, PUT, or DELETE, defining the action to be performed on the resource.

A function that maps an HTTP Method and URL Path to a specific processing logic, handling requests and generating responses.

A type of URL parameter used to define the unique identifier of a resource, like a post ID or user ID.

A function in Go that converts a string representation of an integer into an integer value.

A function in Go that encodes data into JSON format.

A function in Go that decodes data from JSON format into a Go data structure.

A software component that acts as an intermediary between the user's request and the database, managing data access and operations.

A format for writing data to the database, often used for structured storage and retrieval.

The process of reading and interpreting data from the request body, often sent from a client application to the server.

A function that retrieves all entries from a database, often returning a collection of resources.

A process to limit the amount of data accepted from a request to prevent potential attacks.

A function that retrieves a specific resource from a database, often using a unique identifier like an ID.

A function that creates a new entry in the database, often based on data provided in the request.

A function in Go that's executed automatically when the program starts. It's used for initializing variables, connecting to databases, or performing other essential setup tasks.

Go's way of dealing with missing values. When you create a structure or object, and don't provide values for all fields, they are automatically set to their default value.

The process of converting data from one format to another, specifically from Go's data structures to JSON strings.

A way to store data in Redis. Key-value pairs are used to store information, with each key representing a unique identifier.

A function in Go that retrieves all posts from the database. This function is typically called by the application's API endpoint to provide a list of all available posts.

A function in Go that retrieves a specific post based on its ID. It's used to fetch the details of a particular post from the database.

A function in Go that creates a new post and saves it to the database. Typically called by an API endpoint when a user submits a new post.

A Go library used to interact with Redis, allowing you to perform operations like storing and retrieving data from a Redis database.

A popular web framework for creating web applications in Go. It provides features like routing, middleware, and template rendering.

The act of checking for errors in a program's execution and handling them gracefully. It's essential for maintaining stability and preventing crashes.
