devcontainer-k3d-tilt-go

Example of developing go microservices locally using tilt inside a devcontainer and deployed into Kubernetes (k3d)

tutorial

1. Open this repo in locally in a vscode devcontainer or on Github Codespaces (not tested)
2. Once the devcontainer is setup without errors, run tilt up in the terminal
3. In another terminal run curl localhost:8080 and see the response "Hello World!"
4. Modify main.go to return a different message
5. Within a second or so run curl localhost:8080 to see your updated message

debugging

• If you have issues with the k3d cluster, run k3d cluster delete followed by k3d cluster create --registry-create k3d-registry:127.0.0.1:5432
• If you have issues with tilt not reloading the code type s in the tilt console to see the log or open the tilt UI
