How to Set Up and Use Nunu

Nunu is a Go application scaffolding CLI that generates production-ready project structures following clean layered architecture and domain-driven design principles. It integrates popular Go libraries including Gin for HTTP routing, GORM for database access, Wire for dependency injection, Viper for configuration, and Zap for structured logging. Developers use Nunu to bootstrap new Go services quickly with best-practice layouts, then generate individual handlers, services, and repositories as the project grows.

Prerequisites

Go 1.19 or later installed and GOPATH/bin added to PATH
Git installed (used internally by nunu for template fetching)
Docker (optional, for containerized development)
MySQL 5.7+ and/or Redis (optional, depending on your project template)

Install the Nunu CLI

Install the nunu binary globally using go install. Make sure your GOBIN directory (usually ~/go/bin) is on your system PATH.

go install github.com/go-nunu/nunu@latest

Verify installation

Confirm nunu is accessible from your terminal.

nunu --version

Create a new project

Scaffold a new Go project. Nunu will create the full directory structure including cmd, config, internal (handlers, services, repositories), pkg, and test folders.

nunu new myproject

Generate individual components

Inside your project, generate handlers, services, and repositories for a domain entity. The 'all' subcommand generates all three at once.

nunu create all user
# Or individually:
nunu create handler user
nunu create service user
nunu create repository user

Run the project with hot reload

Start the development server with automatic hot reload so changes are picked up without restarting manually.

nunu run

Compile Wire dependency injection

When you add or modify providers, regenerate the Wire dependency injection graph.

nunu wire

Nunu Examples

Client configuration

Claude Desktop configuration to expose Nunu as an MCP server. Note: Nunu is primarily a CLI scaffolding tool; the MCP interface wraps its CLI commands.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nunu": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["nunu"]
    }
  }
}

Prompts to try

Example prompts for working with Go projects using Nunu's scaffolding capabilities.

- "Create a new Go project called billing-service using nunu"
- "Generate a handler, service, and repository for the order entity"
- "Start the project with hot reload so I can develop interactively"
- "Regenerate the Wire dependency injection graph after my changes"
- "What is the recommended directory structure for a nunu project?"

Troubleshooting Nunu

'nunu' command not found after installation

The nunu binary is placed in your GOBIN directory (usually ~/go/bin). Add it to PATH: export PATH=$PATH:$(go env GOPATH)/bin — and add this line to your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc.

Wire compilation fails with missing provider errors

Run 'nunu wire' from the project root rather than a subdirectory. Ensure all providers referenced in wire.go files are imported and have correct function signatures.

Hot reload via 'nunu run' does not detect file changes

Verify you are running nunu run from the project root. On Linux, inotify watch limits can prevent detection — increase them with: echo fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288 | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf && sudo sysctl -p
