Speed Up Your Go App Startup with Parallel Dependency Injection

#go #performance #concurrency #programming

I built Kessoku to solve a simple problem: Go apps start too slowly.

Your app probably initializes services like this:

DB (300ms) → Cache (200ms) → Auth (100ms) = 600ms 😴
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Kessoku runs them in parallel:

DB (300ms) ┐ Cache (200ms) ├─ = 300ms 🚀 Auth (100ms) ┘
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Quick Example 

//go:generate go tool kessoku $GOFILE var _ = kessoku.Inject[*App]("InitApp", kessoku.Async(kessoku.Provide(NewDB)), // These run kessoku.Async(kessoku.Provide(NewCache)), // at the same kessoku.Async(kessoku.Provide(NewAuth)), // time! kessoku.Provide(NewApp), )
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Get Started 

go get -tool github.com/mazrean/kessoku/cmd/kessoku
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

That's it. Your app now starts faster.

Why Kessoku?

  • Compile-time: Zero runtime overhead (unlike uber/fx)
  • Automatic: Just add Async() to parallelize
  • Compatible: Drop-in replacement for google/wire

Perfect for microservices, serverless functions, or any app with multiple slow initializations.
