🧠 Architecture Overview

Provider → Processor Chain → Formatter → Output

Pipeline Components

Component	Purpose	Examples
Provider	Fetch data from sources	Mock, CSV, Database, API
Processor	Transform data step-by-step	Filter, Validate, Transform
Formatter	Convert to output format	JSON, CSV, YAML
Output	Deliver the final report	Console, File, Slack, Email

---

🧰 Quick Start

1. Using Configuration Files (Recommended)

Create a config.yaml file:

provider:
  type: mock
  params: {}

processors:
  - type: min_score_filter
    params:
      min_score: "90"

formatter:
  type: json
  params:
    indent: "2"

output:
  type: console
  params: {}

Load and run:

package main

import (
    "log"
    "github.com/AshishBagdane/go-report-engine/internal/config"
)

func main() {
    // One-step load and build
    engine, err := config.LoadAndBuild("config.yaml")
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatalf("Failed to create engine: %v", err)
    }

    // Run the engine
    if err := engine.Run(); err != nil {
        log.Fatalf("Execution failed: %v", err)
    }
}

2. Using Builder Pattern

package main

import (
    "context"
    "fmt"
    "log"
    "github.com/AshishBagdane/go-report-engine/internal/engine"
    "github.com/AshishBagdane/go-report-engine/internal/provider"
    "github.com/AshishBagdane/go-report-engine/internal/processor"
    "github.com/AshishBagdane/go-report-engine/internal/formatter"
    "github.com/AshishBagdane/go-report-engine/internal/output"
    "github.com/AshishBagdane/go-report-engine/internal/registry"
)

func init() {
    // Register components
    registry.RegisterProvider("mock", func() provider.ProviderStrategy {
        return provider.NewMockProvider([]map[string]interface{}{
            {"id": 1, "name": "Alice", "score": 95},
            {"id": 2, "name": "Bob", "score": 88},
        })
    })

    registry.RegisterFormatter("json", func() formatter.FormatStrategy {
        return formatter.NewJSONFormatter("  ")
    })

    registry.RegisterOutput("console", func() output.OutputStrategy {
        return output.NewConsoleOutput()
    })
}

func main() {
    // Build engine with builder pattern
    eng, err := engine.NewEngineBuilder().
        WithProviderType("mock").
        WithFormatterType("json").
        WithOutputType("console").
        Build()

    if err != nil {
        log.Fatalf("Failed to build engine: %v", err)
    }

    // Run with context
    ctx := context.Background()
    if err := eng.RunWithContext(ctx); err != nil {
        fmt.Println("Error during execution:", err)
    }
}

3. Using Configuration Presets

package main

import (
    "log"
    "github.com/AshishBagdane/go-report-engine/internal/config"
)

func main() {
    // Use built-in preset configurations

    // For development
    engine, err := config.BuildFromDevelopment()
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatalf("Failed: %v", err)
    }

    // Or for production
    // engine, err := config.BuildFromProduction()

    // Or for testing
    // engine, err := config.BuildFromTesting()

    engine.Run()
}

⚙️ Configuration

Configuration File Formats

The engine supports both YAML and JSON configuration formats:

# config.yaml
provider:
  type: mock
  params:
    data_source: "test"

processors:
  - type: filter
    params:
      field: "score"
      min: "80"

formatter:
  type: json
  params:
    indent: "2"

output:
  type: console
  params: {}

{
  "provider": {
    "type": "mock",
    "params": {}
  },
  "processors": [],
  "formatter": {
    "type": "json",
    "params": {
      "indent": "2"
    }
  },
  "output": {
    "type": "console",
    "params": {}
  }
}

Environment Variable Overrides

Override configuration at runtime using environment variables:

# Set environment variables
export ENGINE_PROVIDER_TYPE=postgres
export ENGINE_PROVIDER_PARAM_HOST=localhost
export ENGINE_PROVIDER_PARAM_PORT=5432
export ENGINE_FORMATTER_TYPE=json
export ENGINE_OUTPUT_TYPE=file

# Load config with overrides
engine, err := config.LoadAndBuildWithEnv("config.yaml")

Supported Environment Variables:

• ENGINE_PROVIDER_TYPE - Override provider type
• ENGINE_FORMATTER_TYPE - Override formatter type
• ENGINE_OUTPUT_TYPE - Override output type
• ENGINE_PROVIDER_PARAM_<KEY> - Override provider parameters
• ENGINE_FORMATTER_PARAM_<KEY> - Override formatter parameters
• ENGINE_OUTPUT_PARAM_<KEY> - Override output parameters

Configuration Presets

The engine includes built-in configuration presets:

Preset	Provider	Formatter	Output	Use Case
Default	mock	json	console	Development/testing
Development	mock	json	console	Local development
Production	mock	json	file	Production deployment
Testing	mock	json	console	Unit/integration tests

// Use presets
engine := config.MustBuildFromDefault()
engine := config.MustBuildFromDevelopment()
engine := config.MustBuildFromProduction()
engine := config.MustBuildFromTesting()

Integration Functions

Convenient one-step functions for common patterns:

// Load config file and build engine
engine, err := config.LoadAndBuild("config.yaml")

// Load with environment overrides
engine, err := config.LoadAndBuildWithEnv("config.yaml")

// Build from raw bytes
yamlBytes := []byte(`provider: {type: mock}...`)
engine, err := config.BuildFromBytes(yamlBytes, "yaml")

// Load with fallback to default
cfg, err := config.LoadOrDefault("config.yaml")
engine, err := config.ValidateAndBuild(*cfg)

// Must variants (panic on error - for init functions)
engine := config.MustLoadAndBuild("config.yaml")
engine := config.MustBuildFromDefault()

💡 Advanced Usage

Structured Logging

The engine includes comprehensive structured logging with slog:

// Logging output example
{"time":"2024-11-24T10:30:45Z","level":"INFO","component":"engine","msg":"starting report generation","request_id":"req-123"}
{"time":"2024-11-24T10:30:45Z","level":"INFO","component":"provider.mock","msg":"fetch completed","provider_type":"mock","duration_ms":0,"duration_us":42,"record_count":2}
{"time":"2024-11-24T10:30:45Z","level":"INFO","component":"formatter.json","msg":"formatting completed","formatter_type":"json","record_count":2,"output_size_bytes":156,"duration_ms":1}

Context Support

Use context for request tracking and cancellation:

import (
    "context"
    "github.com/AshishBagdane/go-report-engine/internal/logging"
)

// Add request ID to context
ctx := logging.WithRequestID(context.Background(), "req-123")
ctx = logging.WithCorrelationID(ctx, "corr-456")

// Run with context
if err := engine.RunWithContext(ctx); err != nil {
    log.Printf("Failed: %v", err)
}

Panic Recovery

// Run with automatic panic recovery
err := engine.RunWithRecovery()
if err != nil {
    // Panics are converted to errors
    log.Printf("Pipeline failed: %v", err)
}

Error Context Extraction

if engineErr, ok := err.(*errors.EngineError); ok {
    fmt.Printf("Stage: %s\n", engineErr.Stage)
    fmt.Printf("Type: %s\n", engineErr.ErrorType)
    fmt.Printf("Component: %s\n", engineErr.Component)

    // Check if retriable
    if engineErr.IsRetriable() {
        // Implement retry logic
    }
}

Custom Processors

Implement your own processing logic:

type MinScoreFilter struct {
    MinScore int
}

func (f *MinScoreFilter) Keep(row map[string]interface{}) bool {
    if score, ok := row["score"].(int); ok {
        return score >= f.MinScore
    }
    return false
}

func (f *MinScoreFilter) Configure(params map[string]string) error {
    minScoreStr, ok := params["min_score"]
    if !ok {
        return api.ErrMissingParam("min_score")
    }
    score, err := strconv.Atoi(minScoreStr)
    if err != nil {
        return fmt.Errorf("min_score must be an integer: %w", err)
    }
    f.MinScore = score
    return nil
}

// Register the custom processor
func init() {
    registry.RegisterFilter("min_score_filter", &MinScoreFilter{})
}
