Docker Multi-state Builds and Go

Fri, 07 Oct 2022 19:21:06 -0400

I recently ran into an issue with building my Go app in one container and then running it in another one. I do this to make my container image smaller.

Without CGO_ENABLED=0, in a multi-stage build, it will say something like the following.

exec /app/main: no such file or directory.

FROM golang:1.16 AS builder
WORKDIR /src/
COPY main.go go.mod go.sum /src/
RUN go get
# Without `CGO_ENABLED=0`, in a multi-stage build, it will say something like
# exec /app/main: no such file or directory
RUN CGO_ENABLED=0 go build -o /src/main /src/main.go

FROM alpine:latest
WORKDIR /app/
COPY --from=builder /src/main /app/main
COPY index.html /app/
EXPOSE 8080
ENTRYPOINT [ "/app/main" ]

I recently came across Charm, they build tools to make the command line glamorous.

They’re using SSH keys for authentication, so no one has to create an account. They also have their own Charm cloud, but make it very easy to host your own Charm server. The Charm server can be used with Skate, which is a personal key-value store that is backed up to the cloud.

I also really enjoy their graphics for their products. Check out the Charm website to see what I mean.
