Similar to Docker in Practice this book is all about tips, tricks and techniques related to the Go programming language. My favorites, in order of appearance, are:
- Graceful shutdown using manners
- Several techniques for recovering from panics
- Embedding files in a binary
- Passing and handling errors over HTTP
- Chapter 10: Communication between cloud services
- Chapter 11: Reflection and code generation
Really happy with this book, it complements Go In Action and Go Web Programming.
