go_docker_env: A Go repository from surenderthakran

Go Docker Environment

Salient Features:

Runs on Go 1.7.3
Docker images based on Ubuntu 16.04
Architecture and dependencies are encapsulated in docker images hence making the dev and production environment COMPLETELY independent of host machine.
Package dependencies are auto installed on image creation.
In Development Environment:
- Provides simple development environment setup with docker-compose.
- Provides save detection and auto restart using reflex.

How To Use:

To build docker image for the go application:

docker build --no-cache=true -t go_app .

To run docker container:

docker run -it -d --name go_app_1 --net=host go_app

With --net=host the container will listen for requests on port 18770.

To listen on a different port (ex: 80) run:

docker run -it -d --name go_app_1 -p 80:18770 go_app

To set up development environment:

docker-compose build
docker-compose up

Above commands will run the blogger docker container with the src/my_go_project folder volume mounted. These will also start reflex watcher to restart service on save in any Go files under src/my_go_project. Restarting the service involves:

Running gofmt on all files under src/my_go_project
Installing service
Running test cases
Running service
