Shoutr is an example Golang web application. You can register for accounts, sign in and shout your opinions on the Internet. It has two tiers: A Golang web app and a MySQL database.
Clone the repository into $GOPATH/src/github.com/honeycombio/examples.
Create database in MySQL.
$ mysql -uroot -e 'create database shoutr;'
Run app.
$ export HONEYCOMB_WRITEKEY=<writekey>
$ go run main.go
The whole webapp can be run in Docker (Compose).
Set your Honeycomb write key to
HONEYCOMB_WRITEKEY, or edit the docker-compose.yml. The shoutr database in
MySQL will be created automatically.
$ export HONEYCOMB_WRITEKEY=<writekey>
Then:
$ docker-compose build && docker-compose up
