Hash Directives Overview (Advanced) - Go

🎯 What Are Hash Directives?

Hash directives in TuskLang (#web, #api, #cli, #cron, etc.) are special config keys that trigger advanced, executable logic. This file provides an advanced summary for Go developers.

🚀 Why Hash Directives Matter

- Enable dynamic, context-aware config - Power web, API, CLI, cron, middleware, auth, cache, and more

📋 Hash Directive Types

- #web — Web routes, middleware, static files - #api — REST, GraphQL, WebSocket, rate limiting - #cli — CLI commands, flags, help - #cron — Scheduled jobs, error handling, logging - #middleware — Request pipeline, CORS, auth - #auth — Auth methods, rules, sessions, tokens - #cache — Caching, TTL, invalidation, storage - #rate_limit — Throttling, burst, IP/user limits - #monitoring — Metrics, alerts, logging, tracing - #deployment — Strategies, containers, infra, envs - #scaling — HPA, VPA, custom scaling - #security — Encryption, RBAC, compliance - #orchestration — Workflows, dependencies, distributed jobs - #feature_flag — Feature toggles, rollout - #envs — Multi-environment overrides - #secrets — Secret management - #logging — Log levels, outputs, format - #audit — Audit logging, retention, compliance - #backup — Backup scheduling, retention, recovery

🔧 Example

web_routes: #web("GET / -> handlers.Home")
api_endpoints: #api("GET /users -> handlers.GetUsers")
cli_commands: #cli("users list -> List all users")
cron_jobs: #cron("0 0   * -> handlers.Cleanup")
...

🎯 Go Integration

- Use Go struct tags to map hash directives - Use the Go SDK to load and resolve all directives at runtime

🛡️ Best Practices

- Document all custom directives - Validate directive parameters - Use sandboxing for executable logic

⚡ Summary

Hash directives are the backbone of TuskLang's power. They make Go apps dynamic, secure, and production-ready. See individual directive files for deep dives.
