Core Module

Utilises blank import Go functionality to import core modules

• Database module - built on-top of “database/sql” provided natively by Go
• https://eli.thegreenplace.net/2019/design-patterns-in-gos-databasesql-package/
• Run a “register” function in a init() function to register a database, module service or server

Hook Modules

Modules that are used to register middleware and listeners to either the Main Process or Module processes.

You will be registering the modules with the corresponding processes

Type of modules that can be hook modules

• Authentication for Login/Sign Up Authentications
• Adding to existing gRPC modules
  • Add additional logic to those gRPC modules

You can only hook onto one module??? To be determined

gRPC Modules (Still a hook module)

Still technically a hook module as it has to still hook on to the main process to be a part of the data flow.

Built on-top of Cosys’ gRPC wrapper which is built on-top of Go-Plugin by Hashicorp

Every module is will need to be built to output a binary file to run as a separate process

Allows any language that supports gRPC and relies on.
