Prerequisites

You need to have Go installed on your computer. Or you may use docker and docker compose for dev purpose

Get started

• Clone or download this repository to your filesystem.

$ git clone https://github.com/samvimes01/news-api-go-app
$ cd news-api-go-app
$ docker compose up

• Deploy is possible to fly.io. It automativally detects Dockerfile. Without it assets aren't deployed and app fails

$ fly auth login
$ flyctl launch // No for deploy since there are env secrets
$ fly secrets set NEWS_API_KEY=blah // het your key at newsapi.org; secrets are available ar runtime as env vars
$ flyctl deploy
