A sample Go application to deploy to Cloud Foundry using dep

This basic example uses a custom router and serves 2 endpoints /health and / it uses the environment var VERSION defined in the manifest.yml the one later is returned when querying the /health endpoint.

The application has the following structure:

|-- app
|     `--hello
|       `--hello.go
|-- health.go
|-- main.go
`-- manifest.yml

Install and set your GO environment

For example using $HOME/go for your workspace

$ export GOPATH=$HOME/go

Create the directory:

$ mkdir -p $HOME/go/src/github.com/swisscom

Clone project into that directory:

$ git clone https://github.com/swisscom/cf-sample-app-go-dep.git $HOME/go/src/github.com/swisscom/cf-sample-app-go-dep

git is required to clone the repository.

To test the app locally before deploying it in to app-cloud, build it by just typing make:

$ cd $HOME/go/src/github.com/swisscom/cf-sample-app-go-dep
$ make

After make finishes you can run the app:

$ ./cf-sample-app-go-dep
2018/07/06 13:39:12 Adding path: /health [ALL]
2018/07/06 13:39:12 Adding path: / [ALL]

This steps requires dep

Visit http://localhost:8080

If you tested locally, remove the vendor directory or simply use:

$ make clean

Then just use:

$ cf push
