How to use Golang to build services

In the development process, using Golang to build services has become a common way. Golang is a modern, high-performance programming language that is particularly suitable for building high-concurrency network applications and services. Today, more and more developers use Golang as the preferred language to implement server-side projects. This article will introduce how to use Golang to build services.

1. Installing Golang
   First, we need to install Golang. You can download the latest installation package from the official website for installation. You can obtain the Golang installation package from the following link: https://golang.org/dl/.
2. Create Project
   In this step, we need to create a new project. Please use the command line to create a folder and enter the folder. Use the command "go mod init " to initialize a new Golang project.

mkdir myapp
cd myapp
go mod init myapp

3. Write the basic code
   Next, we need to create a main.go file in the project folder, which contains the basic code to start and listen to the HTTP service. The following is a simple example:

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "net/http"
)

func main() {
    // 设置路由规则
    http.HandleFunc("/", func(writer http.ResponseWriter, request *http.Request) {
        fmt.Fprintf(writer, "你好，世界！")
    })
    // 启动HTTP服务
    http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil)
}

In the sample code, we use the "net/http" package in the Go standard library to implement a simple Hello World service. Use the function "http.HandleFunc" to set routing rules, and then use the function "http.ListenAndServe" to start the HTTP service and listen for requests on port 8080.

4. Run the project
   We have completed a simple service and can now run the service using the following command:

go run main.go

Now, you can open a browser And visit "http://localhost:8080" to see if the service is running normally. If everything is fine, you will see "Hello, world!" displayed on the page.

5. Implementing other routes and handlers
   In the real world, we need to handle multiple types of requests and routes based on needs. Below is a sample program in which different types of routing and processing functions are implemented.

package main

import (
    "encoding/json"
    "fmt"
    "log"
    "net/http"
)

// 返回JSON数据的处理函数
type user struct {
    Name string
}

func helloHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    fmt.Fprintln(w, "Hello, world!")
}

func jsonHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    user := &User{Name: "Gopher"}
    json.NewEncoder(w).Encode(user)
}

func main() {
    http.HandleFunc("/", helloHandler)
    http.HandleFunc("/json", jsonHandler)

    log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil))
}

In the sample code, we wrote routing processing functions for "Hello, world" and return JSON data respectively. Use HTTP "GET" requests to access the root URL path for "Hello, world" output, and use HTTP "GET" requests to access the "/json" path to obtain a JSON response.

6. Publishing Service
   Finally, after development is completed, we need to deploy the project to the production environment. You can use the following command to compile the Go code into an executable file:

CGO_ENABLED=0 GOOS=linux go build -a -installsuffix cgo -o myapp .

Package the generated myapp file together with your Dockerfile file and upload it to your server.
