Simple example in Go using CloudEvents SDK

Simple CloudEvents Application using Go and Gorilla MUX

Simple example in Go using CloudEvents SDK. This example exposes two HTTP REST endpoints, a producer and a consumer of CloudEvents.

• /produce accepts a POST request and produce a CloudEvent to the SINK that by default is http://localhost:8080/

This example uses Gorilla MUX to handle different requests to different endpoints.

The application by default runs on port 8081, this can be overriden by exporting an environment variable SERVER_PORT.

Building and running the application

If you want to build from source and run it you need to have Go installed.

To simple run the application:

go run main.go

You can use Google ko to build an image and push a docker image, if you have ko installed you can run:

ko publish main.go

To build, publish and run a docker image with ko:

docker run -p 8081:8081 $(ko publish fmtok8s-go-cloudevents.go)

Or if you just want to use Docker:

docker run -e SINK=http://localhost:8080 -p 8081:8081 salaboy/fmtok8s-go-cloudevents.go

Sending Requests and CloudEvents

Send a POST request to produce a CloudEvent, that will be sent to a downstream service.

curl -X POST localhost:8081/produce -v

Consume a CloudEvent and print it out:

curl -X POST http://localhost:8081/ -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "ce-type: MyCloudEvent"  -H "ce-id: 123"  -H "ce-specversion: 1.0" -H "ce-source: curl-command" -d '{"myData" : "hello from curl", "myCounter" : 1 }'
