Go Client Now Available
Blog post from Stream
Go's popularity as a programming language is reflected in the development of the official Go API client for the Stream service, which is now available on GitHub. This new client, a refined and more accessible iteration of the earlier community-contributed version by MrHenry and HyperWorks, boasts a significantly reduced codebase, utilizing about 57% fewer lines of code. Key features include comprehensive test coverage of Stream API endpoints, extensive use of functional options for clarity and future extensibility, and utilities for client initialization from environment variables. The client supports complete endpoints, offers pagination and filtering options, and allows activities to be added or removed from feeds. Moreover, the client is designed to follow Go's best coding practices, ensuring a clean and idiomatic interface.
