A Cloud Foundry buildpack for Go(lang) based apps.
This is based on the [Heroku buildpack] (https://github.com/kr/heroku-buildpack-go).
Additional documentation can be found at CloudFoundry.org.
This buildpack will get used if you have any files with the .go extension in your repository.
cf push my_app -b https://github.com/cloudfoundry/buildpack-go.gitThe primary purpose of extending the heroku buildpack is to cache system dependencies for firewalled or other non-internet accessible environments. This is called 'offline' mode.
'offline' buildpacks can be used in any environment where you would prefer the system dependencies to be cached instead of fetched from the internet.
The list of what is cached is maintained in bin/package.
Using cached system dependencies is accomplished by overriding curl during staging. See bin/compile
Offline mode expects each app to use Godep to manage dependencies. The Godep folder should be populated before pushing your app.
Deprecated
A .godir file containing the name of your application can be used to build the project.
- Make sure you have fetched submodules
git submodule update --init- Build the buildpack
bin/package [ online | offline ]-
Use in Cloud Foundry
Upload the buildpack to your Cloud Foundry and optionally specify it by name
cf create-buildpack custom_go_buildpack go_buildpack-offline-custom.zip 1 cf push my_app -b custom_go_buildpack
See the Machete CF buildpack test framework for more information.

Early versions of this buildpack required users to
create a .godir file in the root of the project,
containing the application name in order to build the
project. While using a .godir file is still supported,
it has been deprecated in favor of using
godep in your project to
manage dependencies, and including the generated Godep
directory in your git repository.
