go-rtb

OpenRTB v2.3 types for Go programming language (golang)

Warning! This package is considered unstable, consider using glide for vendoring specific version (commit hash).

Guidelines

Naming convention

• UpperCamelCase
• Capitalized abbreviations (e.g., AT, COPPA, PMP etc.)
• Capitalized ID keys

Types

• Key types should be chosen according to OpenRTB v2.3 specification (attribute types)
• Numeric types:
  • architecture-independent, e.g., int32 instead of int
  • signed integral types should be used only when absolutely needed (value may contain negative numbers), unsigned integral types are preferred
  • enumerations should be represented with minimal integral types, e.g., uint8 or int8 for enumerations with <= 256 variants
  • for floating-point attributes only float64 type should be used

Documentation

• Godoc: documenting Go code
• Each entity (type or struct key) should be documented
• Comments for entities should be copy-pasted "as-is" from OpenRTB specification

Code organization

• Each RTB type should be kept in its own file, named after type
• File names are in underscore_case, e.g., type BidRequest should be declared in bid_request.go
• go fmt your code
