From a very high-level view, we recognize 4 major components of the system.
Client
The client is a user, powered by go binary with module support. At the moment of writing this document, it is go1.11
VCS
VCS is an external source of data for Athens. Athens scans various VCSs such as github.com and fetches sources from there.
Proxy
We intend proxies to be deployed primarily inside of enterprises to:
- Host private modules
- Exclude access to public modules
- Cache public modules
Importantly, a proxy is not intended to be a complete mirror of an upstream proxy. For public modules, its role is to cache and provide access control.
