⁠go-dev

Golang development container - a good starting point for general Golang development in a docker container

⁠Usage

Simple Go container with dep installed

docker-compose up &

For a more generic installation, checkout of the docker-compose-vanilla.yml file. It's a useful recipe for leveraging the latest golang docker image.

docker-compose -f docker-compose-vanilla.yml up

If you wish to use dep for dependency management in your vanilla container run the /scripts/dep.sh script or /scripts/glide.sh script inside your container.

⁠Recompile

Connect to your container. Change "hello" to the name of your project. From within the container run the following.

go install hello

Then restart your container

⁠Hugo

Install Hugo

docker exec -it golang_dev /scripts/hugo.sh

⁠Container

To connect to the container

docker exec -it golang_dev /bin/bash

⁠Debugging

Change the entry point in your docker-compose file to be some file or log.

e.g. tail -f /var/log/bootstrap.log

entrypoint:
	- tail
	- -f
	- /var/log/bootstrap.log

This will allow you to figure out why your code is not compiling. You cannot run the docker container if you do not have a valid entrypoint (e.g. go routine)
