Hacker News Golang articles extractor

This repository contains the code written for a presentation at the Golang London Meetup on April 15th, 2020. It is purely for illustrative purposes.

This is a small app that:

  • periodically scraps the Hacker News homepage to look for articles about the Go language
  • stores these articles in a database

We are trying to propose some default structure to start a new app by:

  • clearly separating the core business logic, from the external services (like Hacker News), and from internal services (like the database we store articles in)
  • adopting a test-driven approach as much as possible
  • allow for rapid prototyping
