gcs-api
This is a toy API for GCS. It serves as an example of how an API can retrieve information from a database and serve it back in a useable JSON format.
How to build the code?
This is a Go application, so it may require you to go get the application
dependencies that are needed for the application itself.
Using Go, you can then build the binary like so:
CGO_ENABLED=0 GOOS=linux go build -a -installsuffix cgo -o gcsapi .
Another dependency of this application is that a MySQL database is needed. See
the testdata.sql as a starting point for setting it up. Also, take a look at
the database helper.
How to run?
You should be able to run it using the binary:
./gcsapi
Note: Pay attention to your platform (see: GOOS in the build line)!
How to run with Docker?
First, you need to build the binary: See the building section above.
Next, you need to build the image:
docker build -t gcsapi .
Once that has been done we can run it:
docker run -d -p 8080:8080 gcsapi gcsapi
