hmarr/golang-runtime repository overview

⁠google/golang-runtime

hmarr/golang-runtime⁠ is a docker⁠ base image that makes it easy to dockerize standard golang⁠ applications that use godep⁠ for dependency management.

It can automatically bundle a golang application with its dependencies (managed via godep) and set the default entrypoint to the compiled binary with no additional Dockerfile instructions.

It is based on google/golang⁠ base image.

⁠Usage

• Create a Dockerfile in your golang application directory with the following content:

    FROM google/golang-runtime
  

  Copy

• Build your container image by running the following command in your application directory:

    docker build -t app .
  

  Copy

⁠Notes

The image assumes that your application:

• has a main package
• listens on port 8080
• may have a .godir file containing the import path for your application if it vendors its dependencies
• may have a Godep directory

When building your application docker image, ONBUILD triggers fetch non-vendored dependencies of your application using godep get.
