Deploy golang app using drone with Kubernetes

See the chinese blog

write simple golang app

see the main.go

package main

import (
	"log"
	"net/http"
	"os"
	"strings"
)

var version = "master"

func showVersion(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	log.Println(version)
	w.Write([]byte(version))
}

func sayHello(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	message := r.URL.Path
	message = strings.TrimPrefix(message, "/")
	message = "Hello, got the message: " + message
	log.Println(message)
	w.Write([]byte(message))
}

func main() {
	// use PORT environment variable, or default to 8080
	port := "8080"
	if fromEnv := os.Getenv("PORT"); fromEnv != "" {
		port = fromEnv
	}
	http.HandleFunc("/version", showVersion)
	http.HandleFunc("/", sayHello)
	log.Println("Listen server on " + port + " port")
	if err := http.ListenAndServe(":"+port, nil); err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
}

write app version using -ldflags. see the following example:

build:
ifneq ($(DRONE_TAG),)
    go build -v -ldflags "-X main.version=$(DRONE_TAG)" -a -o release/linux/amd64/hello
else
    go build -v -ldflags "-X main.version=$(DRONE_COMMIT)" -a -o release/linux/amd64/hello
endif

how to build binary using drone?

pipeline:
  build_linux_amd64:
    image: golang:1.10
    group: build
    environment:
      - GOOS=linux
      - GOARCH=amd64
      - CGO_ENABLED=0
    commands:
      - cd example19-deploy-with-kubernetes && make build

upload to dockerhub

See the drone config:

docker_golang:
  image: plugins/docker:17.12
  secrets: [ docker_username, docker_password ]
  repo: appleboy/golang-http
  dockerfile: example19-deploy-with-kubernetes/Dockerfile
  default_tags: true
  when:
    event: [ push, tag ]

rolling update using kubernetes

Please preare the following drone secrets

1. KUBERNETES_SERVER
2. KUBERNETES_CERT
3. KUBERNETES_TOKEN

then see the drone config

deploy:
  image: sh4d1/drone-kubernetes
  kubernetes_template: example19-deploy-with-kubernetes/deployment.yml
  kubernetes_namespace: default
  secrets: [ kubernetes_server, kubernetes_cert, kubernetes_token ]

see the deployment.yaml
