v2ray-configurator

Go, GORM, and gRPC

v2ray-core is written in Go.

So I tried GORM as yet another alternative to SQLAlchemy and Django. GORM can manage the database by migration just as Django does, and this part works fluently.

As to the config side, it feels uncomfortably hard to implement a model-based configurator in Go. Despite I can get all the struct directly from v2ray-core, they come with very strict type definitions. Implementing another model feels unnecessary, and is troublesome too - no type union, no constructor, no default value for functions. Indeed, Go is not an object-oriented language.

For scenarios where performance is not a problem, Python will do so I am going to save the trouble of reimplementing the whole project yet again in Go.

However, I do still need Go for gRPC for some features of v2ray to work. I can either use a Python package for that, or I can use the GORM model defined earlier to write gRPC directly in Go. The first approach is considered better in the long run because I can save the trouble of aligning the Python and Go ORM model.
