prantlf/golang-make repository overview

⁠prantlf/golang-make

Docker⁠ image: Go language on Alpine Linux with Make

This image⁠ is supposed to build and test applications written in Go⁠. They often use make as a build tool, which is added by this image. This image is built automatically on the top of the tag alpine⁠ from the golang repository⁠, so that it always runs the current version of Go⁠ in the latest Alpine Linux⁠. Make⁠ has to be updated from time to time by triggering a new build manually.

⁠Tags

• latest⁠ (1.15)
• 1.15
• 1.14

⁠Install

docker pull prantlf/golang-make
# or a specific tag
docker pull prantlf/golang-make:1.15

⁠Use

Just like the image from the golang repository⁠. You will be able to call make in addition to go. You can either create your own image based on this one, or you can use it directly to build a Go project. For example, build from sources in the current directory, where you have the Makefile:

docker run --rm -it -v "${PWD}":/work -w /work \
  prantlf/golang-make clean all

If you need to install some global dependencies, which go build does not do automatically, or if you need to execute go generate, you can introduce a special target prepare for these steps and insert it between clean and all to the command line, for example.

⁠Build, Test and Publish

The local images are built as golang-make with the appropriate tags and pushed to the docker hub as prantlf/golang-make with the same tags.

# remove the old local images
make clean
# Check the syntax of the Dockerfiles
make lint
# update the local parent images
make pull
# build new local images and tag them
make build
# test the local images
make test
# enter an interactive shell inside a local image
make shell VERSION=latest
# run make using the created image
make run VERSION=latest
# tag the local images tor upload
make tag
# login to the docker hub
make login
# push the local images to the docker hub
make push
