• Create a new database for tasks.
• Note down the database name, username, and password.

Setting up Redis (Simplified)

• Download Redis for Windows.
• Start Redis service on your machine.

Configuring task_manager_go

By default, the app tries to connect to:

• MySQL at localhost:3306
• Redis at localhost:6379

If your setup is different, you will need to update the configuration inside the app’s settings file (config.yaml or similar).

🔧 How to Use task_manager_go

task_manager_go is an API service. It works by sending requests over the internet to manage tasks. You can use tools like your web browser or software such as Postman to interact with it.

For example, you can:

• Add new tasks
• View task lists for your team
• Change task status (in progress, completed, etc.)
• Delete tasks when they are done

---

📡 Accessing the API

Once task_manager_go runs, use your web browser or any API client to access it.

The API base address is:

http://localhost:8080/api

Try visiting this address in your browser to see if the server responds.

---

🔐 Authentication

task_manager_go uses JWT tokens to control access.

• To access the API, you must log in with valid credentials.
• The app will give you a token after login.
• Use this token in your requests to prove you have permission.

---

📊 Monitoring and Health Checks

This app collects performance data using Prometheus. It also checks its own health and availability.

• You can view these reports at: http://localhost:8080/metrics
• Check the system status at: http://localhost:8080/health

---

🧪 Testing

task_manager_go includes automated tests that developers can run. You do not need to run tests yourself, but they help ensure the app stays reliable.

---

📂 Folder Contents (For Developers)

If you open the source folder, you will find:

• API endpoints and logic
• Database connection settings
