IBM Core Golang Gin Generator

Overview

This generator produces a simple Gin-based Golang server application, with all the ingredients you need for a good start at building a cloud native application. It can be run locally or remotely (e.g. IBM Cloud).

Pre-requisites

• Install Yeoman

npm install -g yo

• If you don't have it already, download Go
• Set up a GOPATH

Installation

npm install -g generator-ibm-core-golang-gin

Usage

yo ibm-core-golang-gin

This will create an application in your $GOPATH/src/<application-name> directory.

Following command line arguments are supported:

• --bluemix='{"name":"<application-name>","backendPlatform":"GO"}'.
• --bluemix='{"name":"<application-name>"' --spec='{"applicationType":"<application-type>"}'.
• The three valid application types are: WEBAPP, MS, and BLANK
• You can alternatively supply a local file containing compatible JSON object by using --bluemix file:path/to/file.json
• If you specifiy the bluemix argument, your application will be generated in your current working directory.
