Go Micro is a microservices library which provides the fundamental building blocks for writing fault tolerant distributed systems at scale. It is part of the Micro toolchain.

An example server can be found in examples/server.

Features

  • Discovery
  • Client
  • Server
  • Pub/Sub

Prerequisites

Consul is the default discovery mechanism provided in go-micro. Discovery is however pluggable.

Install Consul

https://www.consul.io/intro/getting-started/install.html

Getting Started

Run Consul

$ consul agent -server -bootstrap-expect 1 -data-dir /tmp/consul

Run Service

$ go run examples/server/main.go --logtostderr

Test Service

$ go run examples/client/main.go 
go.micro.srv.example-59b6e0ab-0300-11e5-b696-68a86d0d36b6: Hello John

Writing a service

Create request/response proto

go-micro/examples/server/proto/example/example.proto:

syntax = "proto3";

message Request {
        string name = 1;
}

message Response {
        string msg = 1;
}

Compile proto protoc -I$GOPATH/src --go_out=$GOPATH/src $GOPATH/src/github.com/myodc/go-micro/examples/server/proto/example/example.proto

Create request handler

go-micro/examples/server/handler/example.go:

package handler

import (
	log "github.com/golang/glog"
	c "github.com/myodc/go-micro/context"
	example "github.com/myodc/go-micro/examples/server/proto/example"
	"github.com/myodc/go-micro/server"

	"golang.org/x/net/context"
)

type Example struct{}

func (e *Example) Call(ctx context.Context, req *example.Request, rsp *example.Response) error {
	md, _ := c.GetMetadata(ctx)
	log.Infof("Received Example.Call request with metadata: %v", md)
	rsp.Msg = server.Config().Id() + ": Hello " + req.Name
	return nil
}

Init server

go-micro/examples/server/main.go:

package main

import (
	log "github.com/golang/glog"
	"github.com/myodc/go-micro/cmd"
	"github.com/myodc/go-micro/examples/server/handler"
	"github.com/myodc/go-micro/server"
)

func main() {
	// optionally setup command line usage
	cmd.Init()

	// Initialise Server
	server.Init(
		server.Name("go.micro.srv.example"),
	)

	// Register Handlers
	server.Handle(
		server.NewHandler(
			new(handler.Example),
		),
	)

	// Run server
	if err := server.Run(); err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
}

Run service

$ go run examples/server/main.go --logtostderr
