Overview

This is an example Go module which can be downloaded and executed by a single go run command. It is designed to read JSON from STDIN, and output JSON to STDOUT, as part of a bare-bones simple xyOps Event Plugin.

Here is the Plugin command for this package:

go run github.com/pixlcore/xyplug-sample-go@v1.0.1

Here is an example invocation with some test data piped in:

echo '{"xy":1,"test":[2,3]}' | go run github.com/pixlcore/xyplug-sample-go@v1.0.1

Expected output:

Read JSON from STDIN:
{
  "test": [
    2,
    3
  ],
  "xy": 1
}

{ "xy":1, "code":0 }

Note: The pretty-printed JSON key ordering may vary. xyOps will ignore and pass through the pretty-printed output, and only consume the compact message at the end.

Instructions

• Ensure you have Go installed and configured (go version).
• Make sure your repository root contains a proper go.mod with module github.com/pixlcore/xyplug-sample-go.
• The main.go at the repo root provides the main package entrypoint required by go run.
• Tag the repo to match the version in the docs (currently v1.0.1):

git tag v1.0.1
git push origin v1.0.1

Implementation notes

• Uses Go's standard library encoding/json to parse and pretty-print.
• Pulls in a 3rd party dependency (github.com/fatih/color) to prove that it is auto-installed.
• Reads all input from STDIN; if no input is provided, only the final JSON line is printed.
• Always prints the final line: { "xy":1, "code":0 } before exiting.
