# Backend Architecture (Go)
|
|
|
|
The LLM Proxy backend is implemented in Go, focusing on high performance, clear concurrency patterns, and maintainability.
|
|
|
|
## Core Technologies
|
|
|
|
- **Runtime:** Go 1.22+
|
|
- **Web Framework:** [Gin Gonic](https://github.com/gin-gonic/gin) - Fast and lightweight HTTP routing.
|
|
- **Database:** [sqlx](https://github.com/jmoiron/sqlx) - Lightweight wrapper for standard `database/sql`.
|
|
- **SQLite Driver:** [modernc.org/sqlite](https://modernc.org/sqlite) - CGO-free SQLite implementation for ease of cross-compilation.
|
|
- **Config:** [Viper](https://github.com/spf13/viper) - Robust configuration management supporting environment variables and files.

|
## Key Components
|
|
|
|
### 1. Provider Interface (`internal/providers/provider.go`)
|
|
Standardized interface for all LLM backends:
|
|
```go
|
|
type Provider interface {
|
|
Name() string
|
|
ChatCompletion(ctx context.Context, req *models.UnifiedRequest) (*models.ChatCompletionResponse, error)
|
|
ChatCompletionStream(ctx context.Context, req *models.UnifiedRequest) (<-chan *models.ChatCompletionStreamResponse, error)
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 2. Asynchronous Logging (`internal/server/logging.go`)
|
|
Uses a buffered channel and background worker to log every request to SQLite without blocking the client response. It also broadcasts logs to the WebSocket hub for real-time dashboard updates.
|
|
|
|
### 3. Session Management (`internal/server/sessions.go`)
|
|
Implements HMAC-SHA256 signed tokens for dashboard authentication. Sessions are stored in-memory with configurable TTL.
|
|
|
|
### 4. WebSocket Hub (`internal/server/websocket.go`)
|
|
A centralized hub for managing WebSocket connections, allowing real-time broadcast of system events and request logs to the dashboard.
|
|
|
|
## Concurrency Model
|
|
|
|
Go's goroutines and channels are used extensively:
|
|
- **Streaming:** Each streaming request uses a goroutine to read and parse the provider's response, feeding chunks into a channel.
|
|
- **Logging:** A single background worker processes the `logChan` to perform database writes.
|
|
- **WebSocket:** The `Hub` runs in a dedicated goroutine, handling registration and broadcasting.
|
|
|
|
## Security
|
|
|
|
- **Encryption Key:** A mandatory 32-byte key is used for both session signing and encryption of sensitive data in the database.
|
|
- **Auth Middleware:** Verifies client API keys against the database before proxying requests to LLM providers.
|
|
- **Bcrypt:** Passwords for dashboard users are hashed using Bcrypt with a work factor of 12.
