013: Go's concurrency to the rescue

Go's worker queue pattern:

type WorderPool struct {
queue chan int
}

func (wp *WorkerPool) start() {
for i := 0; i < 500; i++ {
go funcIO {
for id := range wp.queue {
doSomething(id)
}
}()
}
}

func (wp *WorkerPool) add(id int) {
wp.queue <- id
}

Best way to show support for the pod is by sharing it around and buying my course.

Let's talk about Go's concurrency. It's a powerful tool to have at your disposal but a hard one to master and use correctly.

If you want to support the pod the best way is to purchase my course (thanks).

This is the last episode of 2022. Those are my thoughts about how I think we should try to help more as user of open source project and librairies.

This episode content was inspired by the Gorilla Web Tool Kit archiving their Go projects.

On that note, I'll be back with more Go content on January, and will try to keep my 1 episode per two weeks plan for 2023.

Thank you!
