go-api-now

This is a very basic HTTP API that returns current time and environment in Go.

In default, the api server is listening to tcp/8000. You can change the port by specifying PORT environment variable.

Why?

Sometimes I want to test Docker integration so I need a container image suitable for testing.

e.g.

• AWS ECS integration
• AWS CodeDeploy integration
• Kubernetes integration
• Heroku integration
• ...

Endpoints

• GET /
  • returns the current environment variables
  • ?sleep=<duration>: sleep <duration> before returns a response
• GET /json
  • returns the large JSON file
• GET /_stats
  • returns the current Go's runtime stats

Usage

Build:

$ docker build -t nabeken/go-api-now:latest .

Run:

$ docker run -d -p 8000:8000 nabeken/go-api-now:latest
$ curl -i http://<docker>:8000

Or

$ docker run -d -p 9999:9999 -e PORT=9999 nabeken/go-api-now:latest
$ curl -i http://<docker>:9999
