Cloud-native Go dev-environment: a year later | Christian Weichel

Talk recording from GoDays Berlin 2020 (https://www.godays.io/) This recordings is sponsored by https://cloudical.io/ » Lecture title: Cloud-native Go dev-environment: a year later » Speaker: Christian Weichel TALK DESCRIPTION Go powers the cloud. Yet, most Go code is still written offline. With the advent of a new generation of Cloud IDEs, such as Eclipse Theia, this is changing. In this talk I will show how we integrated Kubernetes, Telepresence, Jenkins, Athens and Gitpod into the cloud-native Go dev environment we've been using in production for about a year now. This talk is very much a real-world experience report from a core developer working in the trenches of a cloud native SaaS product, obviously including live demos. Our dev setup centers around a VS-code like online (read, in-the-browser) IDE with Docker-backed terminals, integrates a Git-ops approach with pre-built workspaces (`go get/vet/build` running before you open your IDE), Athens as Go module proxy making our builds fast, in-cluster debugging using Telepresence, and a ready-to-go `kubectl` setup for each member of the team. As a boon, workspaces are isolated and thus no longer mess up our local setups or interfere with each other. We aim to show how modern, cloud-native dev environments can immensely benefit us as Go developers. Packed with real-world examples this talk will leave the audience with loads of new ideas of how they can improve their own dev environment.
