Godo

Godo is a build tool for executing consistent, reproducible builds inside Docker containers.

The only dependencies to use godo are a working Docker installation and the godo binary installed.

Usage

Godo loosely resembles make, except the commands and scripts that you tell it to execute must be inside a Docker conainer.

Like make, it operates on build targets and ships with the following targets pre-configured, out of the box:

• build - build your Go code inside a container (soon to be deprecated)
• docker-build - build an image with your Go program inside it
• docker-push - push your image to a Docker repository

Configuration

Project structures and settings vary significantly, so each of those targets are configurable in a gci.yaml file (to be changed soon). See Godo's own gci.yaml file for an example

Features Not Yet Implemented

The following high level features are planned, but not yet implemented:

• Target dependencies (https://github.com/arschles/godo/issues/18)
• Custom targets (https://github.com/arschles/godo/issues/17)
• CI Server (https://github.com/arschles/godo/issues/19)

Development

Writing code for Godo is simple. Since it's a build tool, it can bootstrap itself by running godo build in the root of the repo.

Assuming you don't have a godo binary available, you can build it with the standard go toolchain as well. Here's what you'll need:

• Go 1.6+
• Glide 0.8+

Once you ensure that you have both dependencies, simply:

glide install
go install

Ensure that you have $GOPATH/bin somewhere on your $PATH, and now you can execute godo targets.

When you're ready to write code, simply fork and open a pull request.
