FightDB.org system walkthrough
Architecture overview
This page shows how the site moves from a browser request, through the VPS and Go application, into PostgreSQL, and how the Python data pipeline keeps the database up to date.
At a glance
Each layer of the stack
Go with mostly standard packages
The app uses net/http for routing and
database/sql with pgx for database work,
which keeps dependencies small and the request path predictable.
PostgreSQL
Fighter, event, and matchup data lives in Postgres so the Go app can serve structured pages and queries reliably.
Python scraper pipeline
Python scripts use BeautifulSoup 4 to scrape source sites and
psycopg2 to normalize and insert fresh data.
Hetzner VPS on Ubuntu
Cloudflare handles DNS, Caddy terminates HTTPS, and the Go service runs behind the reverse proxy on the VPS.
