Go-Docker-Test

Description:

This project is a simple Go application that demonstrates how to build and run a Docker image. It's a great starting point for learning how to containerize Go applications.

Prerequisites:

• Git: To clone the repository and manage version control.
• Docker: To build and run the Docker image.

Cloning the Repository:

1. Initialize a new local repository:

   git init

2. Add a remote:

   git remote add origin git@github.com:samucodesh/Go-Docker-Test.git

Note

Replace git@github.com:samucodesh/Go-Docker-Test.git with your ssh link

3. Clone the repository:

   git pull origin main

Building the Image:

Navigate to the root directory of the project and run the following command:

docker build -t mygoapp .

This will build the Docker image from the Dockerfile in the current directory and tag it as mygoapp.

Running the Image:

To run the image in a container, use the following command:

docker run -p 8080:8080 mygoapp

This will start a container from the mygoapp image and map port 8080 of the container to port 8080 of your local machine. You can access your application at http://localhost:8080.
