Golang Template

Hi there, does anyone have a golang template with go version 1.22 or 1.23? The base golang image from coder has a too old version for me and I haven't figured out yet how to install a newer version in the coder workspace Thanks in advance!

# Install latest golang version

source /home/coder/.bashrc

when conncting which is a bit annoying

hi @RainyDev, which template are you using?

RainyDev•2mo ago

https://github.com/sharkymark/v2-templates/tree/main/src/docker-intellij-gateway I think it was that one that I modified a bit (added go install script etc but didnt quite work)

i see I would recommend starting over with our Docker template and adding our JetBrains Gateway module to it that way you actually control the Dockerfile that is used within the workspace :-)

RainyDev•2mo ago

Will that work on Kubernetes? Sorry havent digged too deep into Coder yet

Phorcys•2mo ago

oh sory, did not know you were using Kubernetes

RainyDev•2mo ago

Yeah, sorry 😄

Phorcys•2mo ago

you probably did not use this one then since it's for IntelliJ on Docker

RainyDev•2mo ago

Oh no i wasn't sorry picked the wrong one one moment please

It was that one I think

Phorcys•2mo ago

oh alright

RainyDev•2mo ago

And the go version there is too low for my required go modules I need 1.22 at least and 1.23.1 would be optimal

Phorcys•2mo ago

yeah so in that case honestly just reuse the template but make it use your own image do you have any CI/CD setup?

RainyDev•2mo ago

I do have gitea hosted with CI, yes. But honestly I haven't digged too deep into creating images for coder 😄 Is there any docs on that?

Phorcys•2mo ago

I don't really think there is so what you'll want to do is either create a Dockerfile that calls FROM <image> (where <image> is the image used in your template) and updates it. or look into how to make your own image from scratch and install Go there https://github.com/coder/coder/blob/main/examples/templates/docker/build/Dockerfile then push the resulting image to a registry (I think Gitea has one) and edit the template to pull that image instead

RainyDev•2mo ago

Hmm okay, I'll have to look into this. Thanks tho!

Phorcys•2mo ago

otherwise using devcontainers might be easier i've got to go but feel free to ask any questions and i'll answer them when I come back

RainyDev•2mo ago

Alright, thank you so much 🙂

Phorcys•2mo ago
