Installation

Zinc is a normal Go module.

Requirements​

  • Go 1.25 or newer
  • An existing Go module, or a new one created with go mod init

Install​

go get github.com/0mjs/zinc

Most applications also use Zinc's first-party middleware package:

import (
	"github.com/0mjs/zinc"
	"github.com/0mjs/zinc/middleware"
)

The middleware package is part of the same module, so no extra install command is needed.

Create a module​

For a new project:

mkdir hello-zinc
cd hello-zinc
go mod init example.com/hello-zinc
go get github.com/0mjs/zinc

Then create main.go and continue with the Quick Start.

Check the version​

Use the normal Go tooling to inspect the selected version:

go list -m github.com/0mjs/zinc

Zinc is currently pre-1.0, so read release notes before upgrading production services.
