Chi: Hi all, who's using chi in production?

[pkieltyka]

Hey everyone, I'm curious to hear which companies are using chi in production, if you see this post and use it in your products, please let me know. I'd like to include a list in the README, it's inspiring to hear all the awesome companies using chi and it helps other get comfortable to adopt it with success from others.

[pkieltyka]

Pressly.com is of course using chi :)

[pkieltyka]

cc`ing a few contributors and devs I spoke with previously: @cyx @ustrajunior @Vektah @xiam @kanocz @november-eleven @mrcpvn @elithrar @ChrisHines @lxfontes @lwc @abh1nav

if you guys have some feedback please let me know as I prepare a blog post about chi and how to write RESTful services in Go.

[kanocz]

I'm using it in few project for the moment... only one (very small, https://github.com/kanocz/minisv) is open source and public, but used on about 20 servers :)

[buro9]

Cloudflare are using it within a helper package that wraps internal JSON REST services.

[cyx]

Heroku is about to use it -- the branch we have is still being tested in a sandbox

[vektah]

99designs uses it as a router in front of our app servers.

We, Origami Inc., uses it for our new API server(actually, it is not released yet but coming soon).

[jhngrant]

IT Jobs Watch uses it for internal applications.

[kanocz]

if non-open-source project also "accepted" than we use it for part of REST (and also non-REST) API for https://homebeat.live (HomeBeat.Live GmbH)

[pkieltyka]

thanks everyone for letting us know :) this is great and makes us want to make chi even better

[zxr90]

Call levels use it in one of our internal applications. Might plan to use it for our new API server.

[abh1nav]

@pkieltyka CrowdRiff uses it for ~80% of our internal services as well as powering our public API 👍

[mvdan]

I'm using chi for a new project, nothing live yet though.

[ustrajunior]

I'm using on https://github.com/ustrajunior/minion and working on a big refactor that will be using chi through minion.

[tors]

pocketmath.com is using chi for some internal apps. keep up the good work!

[stefanwuthrich]

wondering, if there is somebody using chi in combination with authboss ( https://github.com/go-authboss/authboss ) ?

[mgenware]

coldfunction is using chi as the only HTTP router behind nginx, all our code is written in Go.

[pengsrc]

QingCloud is using pressly/chi in some of our internal services.

[cyx]

[dannyvankooten]

We are using chi for our shop platform & API on https://platform.boxzillaplugin.com. Nothing too crazy, about 80 routes total. Also running behind NGINX.

[rafaeljesus]

We are using at @hellofresh as well cc/ @italolelis

[italolelis]

Janus Gateway is also using it: https://github.com/hellofresh/janus/blob/master/Gopkg.toml#L43
This is the gateway that powers the @hellofresh architecture.

[djui]

Betalo is using it for all its backend services.

[kifirkin]

Example for QOR SDK just moved from Gin to Chi

[shenshouer]

Autohome Inc. using it for the API server.

[alehano]

Hi. I'm using chi in my web framework https://github.com/alehano/gobootstrap

[egtann]

We're using chi at Abot for our website and our back-end dashboard/APIs. https://www.abotlabs.com

[maknahar]

We are using chi at Justickets in a couple of services.

[guiferpa]

@diegobernardes

[mcastilho]

We are using it at https://www.smsjunk.com

I wrote an article about using Chi here: https://medium.com/smsjunk/an-in-depth-look-at-our-docker-and-ecs-stack-for-golang-b89dfe7cff5c

[chenjie4255]

we are using it at https://moreless.io as App Tide 's backend.

[kinqsley]

@chenjie4255 Your app is awesome, I have using it to focus on my work!

[cemremengu]

Using it for a BI tool soon going in prod.

The selling points of Chi was it's simplicity; doing what it's supposed to do good by focusing on usability and functionality instead of bragging about performance

[lansana]

Using it for a cryptocurrency payment service.

Works really nicely, especially the scoping of routes with Group and the ability to add custom middleware to a particular group. Allows me to be very expressive with my route definitions.

Can't achieve this with Gin, for instance. At least not the last time I used it, which is why I made the move to Chi.

[ernsheong]

Netlify is using it at https://github.com/netlify/gotrue

(I am not affiliated with Netlify)

[anurag]

Render is using it in production for everything: https://render.com

[thedevsaddam]

Using the package for several micro services at Pathao Limited

[PlkMarudny]

A bunch of microservices at mbc.net

[devypt]

Hi @pkieltyka

This comment extends from #501 https://github.com/go-chi/chi/issues/501#issuecomment-611007771
The question is mainly to ask where test coverage is, but you don't answer. If you are available, please share with me. Thanks.

About the library choice of decision for me, I have no big question about this.
This library has provided a completed introduction.

Individually, I like it's made by std lib, no syntactic sugar. However, it means that it doesn't need to learn specified knowledge or method from some libraries. The main operation method can refer to the official site. So, I plan to introduce my colleagues who are no Golang experience and I hope that they won't learn much tricky skills when learning Golang.

---

About benchmark rank, it's from techempower round 18

If you wouldn't click the link, I have attached a file as below:

The Golang version is 1.12. I think if use 1.14, I believe the official Golang team is evolving the standard libraries and it will perform better.

[pkieltyka]

@TonyPythoneer thanks for sharing those benchmarks -- glad to see chi reaching for the top of the list in real-world`ish tests :)

as for test coverage, the router trie is covered extensively in tree_test.go and the mux is covered in mux_test.go -- I think you can see from how few bug reports and how little the code changes the project is quite robust. Feel free to run a code coverage tool to figure out the % of surface area of test coverage. Test coverage % however does not represent the true integrity of a project, as its easy to cover an area of code but miss all of the deep edge cases in the argument space, and this is where tree_test and mux_test go deep. The middlewares could use more test cases for sure, happy to accept PRs from the community. But middlewares gain a lot of use through all the infrastructure in my own professional projects, as well from hundreds (thousands?) of other companies -- so I think you're safer than most projects out there.

[edwardsb]

Malwarebytes is using Chi for internal APIs.

[aaronjheng]

@pkieltyka Maybe a ADOPTERS.md file will be better for reference.

[JRaspass]

Code Golf is using it after switching from julienschmidt/httprouter so that parameters could overlap with literal slugs e.g.

r.Get("/{hole}", routes.Hole)
r.Get("/about", routes.About)

[markuswustenberg]

We used chi when I was at Uber, on the storage platform team, for internal infrastructure tools.
