After a while of absence, I’m getting back into Go programming and I was wondering: What’s new in terms of quality control tooling? What are you running on your CI/CD ? Any suggestions?
Decouple!
CI should just build container images and do testing. CircleCI, Github Actions, Gitlab, Travis… Jenkins if you don’t have any other choice…
CD should manage the deployment of that compiled code into a working environment… Renovate Bot, Argo CD/Rollouts, Flux… Ansible if you’re still doing things the old way…
If you are still stuck doing stuff the old ways (bare metal, VMs, ansible, etc), packer is great for building immutable images so you can hopefully dump config management entirely.
Thanks for the suggestions.
I’m looking more for go specific tooling advice, like
govet,goimports,golangcitools,nilawayor similar.We are running Tekton for CI/CD, highly recommend fyi
gotestsum, gocover-cobertura, go vet, govulncheck, nancy, osv-scanner
I’m running tests and deploying binaries, nothing special.
I actually use GitHub Actions, even though the project is hosted on Codeberg. I’m too embarrassed to ask for Woodpecker CI/CD for such a small (and not that active) project lol
