docker runx Go Toolbox

This is an opinionated set of tools to work with Go codebases.

On the most opinionated side, it requires a specific layout for you Go codebase, where the entrypoint is defined in cmd/<NAME>/main.go and will produce a NAME binary that will be put in a dist/ folder.

This is designed to be used with docker runx.

Image is available on Docker Hub.

$ docker runx eunomie/runx-go --help

If you want to make it easier to use, create a .docker/runx.yaml file in your project folder with the following content:

ref: eunomie/runx-go
images:
  eunomie/runx-go:
    all-actions:
      opts:
        bin_name: <NAME>
    actions:
      go:build:all:
        opts:
          platforms: linux/amd64,linux/arm64

That way, inside the project folder, you can simply run:

$ docker runx go:build
