GoNCS is a suite of modular networking functions built in Docker containers. The containers include a reverse proxy, dns, logging manager, and a dashboard. These containers communicate with each other through network requests in order to stay independent of one another and stay isolated on the network.
Once you have cloned the project, run go get to retrieve all the dependencies you will need for development.
git clone https://github.com/mattackard/project-1.git
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/mattackard/project-1/
go get ./...
Docker build will automatically get the dependencies for your containers during the build process, but having the dependencies locally will provide your IDE with code sensing and prevent any warnings.
To get started working with the source code, you will need to create a .env file in the root project directory containing your DNS container's address for requests, and your authentication credentials being used in the reverse proxy. Once the env has been created you can run make all to build and run the docker containers.
make all flag=docker-compose_build_flag_here
This command will run docker-compose build to build all the containers using a build stage to create a lightweight container with only the go binary. It will then run docker-compose up to run all your containers.
Once your docker containers are running, you will see log files are generating outlining the communication between each of the containers.
To deploy the containers onto a live system, create an image containing only the go binary. From there follow the steps outlined in the docker documentation to deploy the docker compose application.
