Highly opinionated lib that contains utility functions.

• req/: HTTP request utility
• res/: HTTP response utility
• ptr/: Conversion of object from and to pointer values (one-liners without nil checks)
• auth/: Passing tokens across app layers with context.Context

Some verbose operations in Golang can distract and take one's mind off the business logic and to solve this, I create util functions to pkg/ to reduce repetition. This was okay, until I had to work on many HTTP projects.

I have created this package to reduce repetitive copying of my pkg/ helper functions from project to project.

• I've named the package lordvidex/x because many of the functionalities that are either upgrades or that the Go (Golang) maintainers wish were in the standard library are typically placed in the golang.org/x package.
• Package name lordvidex/x is relatively short, thereby easy to remember and import

err := req.I().Will().Bind(r, &v).Validate(v).Err()

• Functions should be designed in a way that it feels as natural as speaking English language.
• Functions should reduce boilerplate code required to parse and validate JSON.

• Use interfaces where necessary for req/
• More flexible response struct in res/
• Add more functions that are often repeated.
