This repository contains sources for the Go App Engine Flex build pipeline. This build pipeline utilizes Google Cloud Build to produce the application image. The
go-1.x.yamlconfiguration files are used in the build pipeline. User can now specify a Go version in app.yaml via
runtime: go1.x, where
1.xcan be 1.8, 1.9, etc. The resulting application image uses gcr.io/distroless/base as the base image, which contains a minimal Linux, glibc-based system.
The builder image
gcr.io/gcp-runtimes/go1-builderis tagged with supported Go major versions for builds to be able to target specific Go version to build against. Run the following gcloud command to list supported versions --
$ gcloud container images list-tags gcr.io/gcp-runtimes/go1-builder
Use only the Go major version tags e.g. 1.8, 1.9, instead of the unique version-datetime tags.
There are different ways to reuse the
go1-builderimage outside of AppEngine Flex. Here are a couple of examples.
Multi-stage Dockerfile
Read up on how to use Docker's multi-stage builds.
Following is a trivial example of a Dockerfile with multi-stage build using the
go1-builderimage to bring in the Go SDK. The Go SDK is located under /usr/local/go of the builder image.
FROM gcr.io/gcp-runtimes/go1-builder:1.9 as builderWORKDIR /go/src/app COPY main.go .
RUN /usr/local/go/bin/go build -o app .
Application image.
FROM gcr.io/distroless/base:latest
COPY --from=builder /go/src/app/app /usr/local/bin/app
CMD ["/usr/local/bin/app"]
Google Cloud Build
Read up on Google Cloud Build.
You can use one of the
go-1.x.yamlfiles for configuration file. The builder image's
ENTRYPOINTis the
go-build.shscript, which expects a certain layout of the uploaded directory. In particular, it expects --
-
_gopath/src
directory containing Go source files within package directory structure. -
_gopath/main-package-path
file containing the import path of the main application to be built. - top level directory can contain resource files that will be bundled into the
application image's
/app
directory.
The build script will build the application as referenced in
_gopath/main-package-pathfile and produce an application Dockerfile which the next step will run a docker build on.
You can customize your own cloudbuild.yaml file with your own Dockerfile.
