Handling error - log.Fatalf

Error Handling

Might want to use log.Fatalf judiciously.
Terminating the program on every error might not always be the best approach. Consider whether a non-critical error should instead log a warning or skip to the next contract.
Instead of directly terminating, aggregate errors and report them all at the end (if applicable) , imo..

Maybe create a function ;

func checkError(msg string, err error) { if err != nil { log.Printf("ERROR: %s: %v", msg, err) return } }

Then replace repetitive error handling with:

checkError(fmt.Sprintf("reading artifact %s", name), err)
