Sortable Example

A drag-and-drop task list built with Go, htmx, and SortableJS. Tasks within a list can be reordered by dragging, and the new order is persisted to PostgreSQL.

Stack

• muxt — template-driven HTTP routing
• htmx + SortableJS — drag-and-drop reordering without a JS framework
• sqlc — type-safe SQL queries
• pgx — PostgreSQL driver

Installing tools

• go install github.com/typelate/muxt@latest
• go install github.com/maxbrunsfeld/counterfeiter/v6@latest

Once they are installed, you can run go generate ./....

Running

Set the DATABASE_URL environment variable and run:

go run github.com/typelate/sortable-example/cmd/server

The server listens on PORT (default 8080).

Goose-like migrations run automatically on startup.

Testing

Unit tests (no database required):

go test ./...

Integration tests in internal/database require a running PostgreSQL instance reachable via DATABASE_URL. They are skipped automatically when the database is unavailable.
