Kubernetes Example

This project demonstrates how to deploy a Go application using the Fiber framework on a Kubernetes cluster.

Prerequisites

Ensure you have the following installed:

• Golang
• Fiber package
• Docker
• Kubernetes
• kubectl
• Minikube (for local development)

Setup

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/gofiber/recipes.git
   cd recipes/k8s

2. Install dependencies:

   go get

3. Build the Docker image:

   docker build -t fiber-k8s-example .

4. Start Minikube (if using Minikube):

   minikube start

5. Deploy the application to Kubernetes:

   kubectl apply -f deployment.yaml

Running the Application

1. Check the status of the pods:

   kubectl get pods

2. Forward the port to access the application:

   kubectl port-forward svc/fiber-k8s-example 3000:3000

3. Access the application at http://localhost:3000.

Example

Here is an example main.go file for the Fiber application:

package main

import (
    "log"
    "github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2"
)

func main() {
    app := fiber.New()

    app.Get("/", func(c *fiber.Ctx) error {
        return c.SendString("Hello, Kubernetes!")
    })

    log.Fatal(app.Listen(":3000"))
}

Here is an example Dockerfile for the application:

FROM golang:1.20-alpine

WORKDIR /app

COPY go.mod ./
COPY go.sum ./
RUN go mod download

COPY *.go ./

RUN go build -o /fiber-k8s-example

EXPOSE 3000

CMD ["/fiber-k8s-example"]

Here is an example deployment.yaml file for deploying the application to Kubernetes:

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: fiber-k8s-example
spec:
  replicas: 2
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: fiber-k8s-example
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        app: fiber-k8s-example
    spec:
      containers:
      - name: fiber-k8s-example
        image: fiber-k8s-example:latest
        ports:
        - containerPort: 3000
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: fiber-k8s-example
spec:
  type: NodePort
  selector:
    app: fiber-k8s-example
  ports:
    - protocol: TCP
      port: 3000
      targetPort: 3000
      nodePort: 30001
