Go Patterns

A curated collection of idiomatic design & application patterns for Go language.

Creational Patterns

Pattern	Description	Status
Abstract Factory抽象工厂	Provides an interface for creating families of releated objects	✘
Builder 生成器	Builds a complex object using simple objects	✔
Factory Method 工厂模式	Defers instantiation of an object to a specialized function for creating instances	✔
Object Pool 对象池模式	Instantiates and maintains a group of objects instances of the same type	✔
Singleton 单例模式	Restricts instantiation of a type to one object	✔

Structural Patterns

Pattern	Description	Status
Bridge桥接模式	Decouples an interface from its implementation so that the two can vary independently	✘
Composite 组合模式	Encapsulates and provides access to a number of different objects	✘
Decorator 装饰器模式	Adds behavior to an object, statically or dynamically	✔
Facade 门面模式	Uses one type as an API to a number of others	✘
Flyweight 享元模式	Reuses existing instances of objects with similar/identical state to minimize resource usage	✘
Proxy 代理模式	Provides a surrogate for an object to control it's actions	✔

Behavioral Patterns

Pattern	Description	Status
Chain of Responsibility 责任链模式	Avoids coupling a sender to receiver by giving more than object a chance to handle the request	✘
Command 命令模式	Bundles a command and arguments to call later	✘
Mediator 终结者模式	Connects objects and acts as a proxy	✘
Memento 备忘录模式	Generate an opaque token that can be used to go back to a previous state	✘
Observer 观察者模式	Provide a callback for notification of events/changes to data	✔
Registry 注册模式	Keep track of all subclasses of a given class	✘
State 状态模式	Encapsulates varying behavior for the same object based on its internal state	✘
Strategy 策略模式	Enables an algorithm's behavior to be selected at runtime	✔
Template 模版模式	Defines a skeleton class which defers some methods to subclasses	✘
Visitor 访问者模式	Separates an algorithm from an object on which it operates	✘

Synchronization Patterns

Pattern	Description	Status
Condition Variable 条件变量模式	Provides a mechanism for threads to temporarily give up access in order to wait for some condition	✘
Lock/Mutex 互斥锁模式	Enforces mutual exclusion limit on a resource to gain exclusive access	✘
Monitor 监听者模式	Combination of mutex and condition variable patterns	✘
Read-Write Lock 读写锁模式	Allows parallel read access, but only exclusive access on write operations to a resource	✘
Semaphore 信号模式	Allows controlling access to a common resource	✔

Concurrency Patterns

Pattern	Description	Status
N-Barrier	Prevents a process from proceeding until all N processes reach to the barrier	✘
Bounded Parallelism	Completes large number of independent tasks with resource limits	✔
Broadcast	Transfers a message to all recipients simultaneously	✘
Coroutines 协程模式	Subroutines that allow suspending and resuming execution at certain locations	✘
Generators 生成器模式	Yields a sequence of values one at a time	✔
Reactor 反应器模式	Demultiplexes service requests delivered concurrently to a service handler and dispatches them syncronously to the associated request handlers	✘
Parallelism 并行模式	Completes large number of independent tasks	✔
Producer Consumer 生产者消费者模式	Separates tasks from task executions	✘

Messaging Patterns

Pattern	Description	Status
Fan-In 流水线模式	Funnels tasks to a work sink (e.g. server)	✔
Fan-Out 流水线模式	Distributes tasks among workers (e.g. producer)	✔
Futures & Promises	Acts as a place-holder of a result that is initially unknown for synchronization purposes	✘
Publish/Subscribe	Passes information to a collection of recipients who subscribed to a topic	✔
Push & Pull	Distributes messages to multiple workers, arranged in a pipeline	✘

Stability Patterns

Pattern	Description	Status
Bulkheads	Enforces a principle of failure containment (i.e. prevents cascading failures)	✘
Circuit-Breaker	Stops the flow of the requests when requests are likely to fail	✔
Deadline	Allows clients to stop waiting for a response once the probability of response becomes low (e.g. after waiting 10 seconds for a page refresh)	✘
Fail-Fast	Checks the availability of required resources at the start of a request and fails if the requirements are not satisfied	✘
Handshaking	Asks a component if it can take any more load, if it can't, the request is declined	✘
Steady-State	For every service that accumulates a resource, some other service must recycle that resource	✘

Profiling Patterns

Pattern	Description	Status
Timing Functions	Wraps a function and logs the execution	✔

Idioms

Pattern	Description	Status
Functional Options	Allows creating clean APIs with sane defaults and idiomatic overrides	✔

Anti-Patterns

Pattern	Description	Status
Cascading Failures	A failure in a system of interconnected parts in which the failure of a part causes a domino effect	✘
