Getting started

1. Install the projects dependencies

Before we begin, lets install the projects dependencies,

go install

2. Development

We can run and watch for any code changes using a package called Air,

make dev

3. Build and run

Now lets build an executable binary and run the project,

make build && \
./kubernetes-hello-world-api

4. Containerize the project (optional)

To build a Docker image of the project,

make docker-build

This next step is intended for use with the bakeruk/kubernetes-hello-world-kustomization project. This will tag and push the newly built Docker image to the the bakeruk/kubernetes-hello-world-kustomization local registry,

make docker-push-local
