A very basic demo for a CRUD API built in golang and interfacing with a Postgresql DB

Originally, the intended purpose of this small demo app was to showcase a simple way to provision k8s resources on-demand for feature branches, however the demo may be interesting beyond that use-case, so I've decided to make it available here.

Please note that the example is still WIP and the application currently only exposes two very simple GET endpoints and does not cache anything.

Configuration Options

The easiest way to configure the application is to set the appropriate environment variables.

Available options:
APPLICATION_PORT Port the application server binds to (default: 8080)
ENABLE_DEV Set dev environment
ENABLE_TRACE If set, logger is configured to print file and line it is called from DB_TIMEOUT Database timeout in seconds
DB_HOST Database Hostname DB_PORT Database Port
DB_USER Database User DB_PASS Database Password
DB_NAME Database Name DB_SSL_DISABLE disable ssl mode

Testing locally

You can get started by navigating to the migrations folder and running the run_migration.sh script. It will download the test data, launch a postgres container based on the official image and load the test data to the database
