Docker Setup for Go Development

This is a short and sweet article on running a Go application using Docker. This is a generic example and many use-cases will differ and so have totally different setups. In our examples we’re also using Docker and docker-compose both of which you will need already installed and setup on your machine for this to work.

#docker #setup #development #docker-compose #alpine #env #dockerfile

Using a .env File & Environment Variables

Environment variables are used throughout the coding ecosystem as a way of keeping secrets out of the code. They’re also useful as a way of keeping the code the same between environments, e.g. live, uat and test servers but functionality might work differently.

#environment #variables #set #get #env #file #local #development
