Encore Go Infrastructure Declaration

Instructions

Encore Go uses declarative infrastructure - you define resources as package-level variables and Encore handles provisioning:

• Locally (encore run) - Encore runs infrastructure in Docker (Postgres, Redis, etc.)
• Production - Deploy via Encore Cloud to your AWS/GCP, or self-host using generated infrastructure config

Critical Rule

All infrastructure must be declared at package level, not inside functions.

Databases (PostgreSQL)

package user

import "encore.dev/storage/sqldb"

// CORRECT: Package level
var db = sqldb.NewDatabase("userdb", sqldb.DatabaseConfig{
    Migrations: "./migrations",
})

// WRONG: Inside function
func setup() {
    db := sqldb.NewDatabase("userdb", sqldb.DatabaseConfig{...})
}

Migrations

Create migrations in the migrations/ directory:

user/
├── user.go
├── db.go
└── migrations/
    ├── 1_create_users.up.sql
    └── 2_add_email_index.up.sql

Migration naming: {number}_{description}.up.sql

Pub/Sub

Topics

package events

import "encore.dev/pubsub"

type OrderCreatedEvent struct {
    OrderID string `json:"order_id"`
    UserID  string `json:"user_id"`
    Total   int    `json:"total"`
}

// Package level declaration
var OrderCreated = pubsub.NewTopic[*OrderCreatedEvent]("order-created", pubsub.TopicConfig{
    DeliveryGuarantee: pubsub.AtLeastOnce,
})

Publishing

msgID, err := events.OrderCreated.Publish(ctx, &events.OrderCreatedEvent{
    OrderID: "123",
    UserID:  "user-456",
    Total:   9999,
})

Subscriptions

package notifications

import (
    "context"
    "myapp/events"
    "encore.dev/pubsub"
)

var _ = pubsub.NewSubscription(events.OrderCreated, "send-confirmation-email",
    pubsub.SubscriptionConfig[*events.OrderCreatedEvent]{
        Handler: sendConfirmationEmail,
    },
)

func sendConfirmationEmail(ctx context.Context, event *events.OrderCreatedEvent) error {
    // Send email...
    return nil
}

Topic References

Pass topic access to library code while maintaining static analysis:

// Create a reference with publish permission
ref := pubsub.TopicRef[pubsub.Publisher[*OrderCreatedEvent]](OrderCreated)

// Use the reference in library code
func publishEvent(ref pubsub.Publisher[*OrderCreatedEvent], event *OrderCreatedEvent) error {
    _, err := ref.Publish(ctx, event)
    return err
}

Cron Jobs

package cleanup

import (
    "context"
    "encore.dev/cron"
)

// The cron job declaration
var _ = cron.NewJob("cleanup-sessions", cron.JobConfig{
    Title:    "Clean up expired sessions",
    Schedule: "0 * * * *",  // Every hour
    Endpoint: CleanupExpiredSessions,
})

//encore:api private
func CleanupExpiredSessions(ctx context.Context) error {
    // Cleanup logic
    return nil
}

Schedule Formats

Object Storage

package uploads

import "encore.dev/storage/objects"

// Package level
var Uploads = objects.NewBucket("user-uploads", objects.BucketConfig{})

// Public bucket
var PublicAssets = objects.NewBucket("public-assets", objects.BucketConfig{
    Public: true,
})

Operations

// Upload (streaming pattern)
writer := Uploads.Upload(ctx, "path/to/file.jpg")
_, err := io.Copy(writer, dataReader)
if err != nil {
    writer.Abort()
    return err
}
err = writer.Close()

// Download
reader := Uploads.Download(ctx, "path/to/file.jpg")
if err := reader.Err(); err != nil {
    return err
}
defer reader.Close()
data, _ := io.ReadAll(reader)

// Check existence
exists, err := Uploads.Exists(ctx, "path/to/file.jpg")

// Get attributes (size, content type, ETag)
attrs, err := Uploads.Attrs(ctx, "path/to/file.jpg")

// List objects
for err, entry := range Uploads.List(ctx, &objects.Query{}) {
    if err != nil {
        return err
    }
    fmt.Println(entry.Key, entry.Size)
}

// Delete
err := Uploads.Remove(ctx, "path/to/file.jpg")

// Public URL (only for public buckets)
url := PublicAssets.PublicURL("image.jpg")

Signed URLs

Generate temporary URLs for upload/download without exposing your bucket:

import "time"

// Signed upload URL (expires in 2 hours)
url, err := Uploads.SignedUploadURL(ctx, "user-uploads/avatar.jpg",
    objects.WithTTL(time.Duration(7200)*time.Second))

// Signed download URL
url, err := Uploads.SignedDownloadURL(ctx, "documents/report.pdf",
    objects.WithTTL(time.Duration(7200)*time.Second))

Bucket References

Pass bucket access with specific permissions to library code:

// Create a reference with download permission only
ref := objects.BucketRef[objects.Downloader](Uploads)

// Create a reference with multiple permissions
type myPerms interface {
    objects.Downloader
    objects.Uploader
}
ref := objects.BucketRef[myPerms](Uploads)

// Permission types: Downloader, Uploader, Lister, Attrser, Remover,
// SignedDownloader, SignedUploader, ReadWriter

Secrets

package email

var secrets struct {
    SendGridAPIKey string
    SMTPPassword   string
}

func sendEmail() error {
    apiKey := secrets.SendGridAPIKey
    // Use the secret...
}

Set secrets via CLI:

encore secret set --type prod SendGridAPIKey

Config Values

package myservice

import "encore.dev/config"

var cfg struct {
    MaxRetries config.Int
    BaseURL    config.String
    Debug      config.Bool
}

func doSomething() {
    if cfg.Debug() {
        log.Println("Debug mode enabled")
    }
}

Guidelines

• Infrastructure declarations MUST be at package level
• Use descriptive names for resources
• Keep migrations sequential and numbered
• Subscription handlers must be idempotent (at-least-once delivery)
• Secrets are accessed by calling them as functions
• Cron endpoints should be private (internal only)
• Each service typically has its own database
