GoCrasHttp

Small Golang expirement 😄

Currently up as an alpine container on heroku

Docker

Only use Docker to build the image if using containerization technologies like:

1. Docker Swarm
2. Kubernetes (k8s)
3. Google Container Platform
4. Heroku (ex: heroku container:push web --app <app_name>)
5. AWS/Azure Container Solutions (Ex: Fargate)
6. A VPS with only Docker as a dependency (Digital Ocean/Linode box)

The image for production is using Alpine Linux.

Very small so no need to worry about bandwith.

Build times are very fast, even from scratch!

Development

Use a local Go install to develop this software.

Get Gin and GoConvey for dev:

Linux:

go get github.com/codegangsta/gin \
  && go get github.com/smartystreets/goconvey \
  && source ~/.bashrc

macOS:

go get github.com/codegangsta/gin \
  && go get github.com/smartystreets/goconvey \
  && source ~/.bash_profile

Use Gin for dev:

./scripts/dev.sh

OR

gin run main.go

Use Convey for dev:

Open a new pane/tab in your terminal and just run $GOPATH/bin/goconvey

This will watch your files, run tests on save, and display really good information about your tests on http://127.0.0.1:8080

Refer to the ./scripts dir for other tasks that can be run
