Golang on CircleCI

1 min read

TL;DR This post provides a quick guide to setting up Continuous Integration for Go projects on CircleCI. It includes a sample circle.yml configuration for dependencies, testing, and environment setup. Get started with automated builds and tests for your Go applications.

As some of you may know, our team has been working with Go for some time and we have always been using CircleCI to run our test suites, we would like to share our circle.yml file, it would help for your Go projects.


machine:
  environment:
    GOPATH: /home/ubuntu/.go_workspace
    IMPORT_PATH: "github.com/$CIRCLE_PROJECT_USERNAME/$CIRCLE_PROJECT_REPONAME"

dependencies:
  pre:
    - go get -d ./...

  override:
    - mkdir -p "$GOPATH/$IMPORT_PATH"
    - rsync -azC --delete ./ "$GOPATH/$IMPORT_PATH"

test:
  override:
    - cd "$GOPATH/$IMPORT_PATH"
    - go vet "$IMPORT_PATH/..."
    - go test "$IMPORT_PATH/..." --race --cover

test:
  override:
    - go vet ./...
    - go test -v ./... --race --cover

Enjoy!
