Using the official Go Docker image to try out a library

We received a Pull Request to add Swagger support to document the Docker API, and @proppy asked if we could make sure we could load the schema in a standard json schema loader, for example gojsonschema

The answer is no, not yet – but we'll work towards it 🙂

But to find out, I added 3 files, a Dockerfile:

FROM golang:onbuild

a Makefile:

default:

docker build -t loadschema .

docker run --rm loadschema

and a tiny 13 line go program:

package main import (

"github.com/xeipuuv/gojsonschema"

)

func main() {

_, err := gojsonschema.NewJsonSchemaDocument("file:///go/src/app/docker-v1.14.json")

if err != nil {

panic(err.Error())

}

}

The golang:onbuild image has ONBUILD instructions to COPY the current context, download the dependencies, build the code, and then sets that application as the default CMD.

AWE.
