Docker Golang

again this is for my self reference or for easy copy-paste for new projects.

Assume this is the production grade program we need to dockerize and run.

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
     fmt.Println("saying hello to the world")
}

Basic

#-NAME: Dockerfile multistage build

FROM golang:1.14-alpine as builder
WORKDIR /go/src/github.com/shabinesh/prog
COPY main.go  .
COPY vendor ./vendor
RUN go build -o main .

FROM alpine:latest 
RUN apk --no-cache add ca-certificates
WORKDIR /
COPY --from=0 /go/src/github.com/shabinesh/prog/main .
CMD ["./main"]

If the service depends on private repositor

  • set the `GOPRIVATE`
  • Update the git to include github token (in this case)
FROM golang:1.14-alpine AS builder
 
ARG GITHUB_TOKEN
 
WORKDIR /go/src/github.com/my-org/hello-service
 
RUN apk add --update bash make git curl ca-certificates
 
# Patch git to use a private token if one was provided
 
RUN if [ ! -z "${GITHUB_TOKEN}" ]; then \
    git config --global --add url."https://${GITHUB_TOKEN}@github.com/my-org/".insteadOf "git@github.com:my-org/" && \
    git config --global --add url."https://${GITHUB_TOKEN}@github.com/my-org/".insteadOf "https://github.com/my-org/" && \
    git config --global --add url."https://${GITHUB_TOKEN}@github.com/my-org/".insteadOf "https://git@github.com/my-org/"; \
fi
 
RUN go mod vendor
RUN go build -o main .
