Yes, I can help you set up seeding for a Go server using GitHub Actions. The goal is to ensure that when your server runs in the CI/CD pipeline, it seeds the necessary data into your database. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
Step 1: Write Your Seed Script
First, create a Go script to seed your database. For example, you can create a file named seed.go:
Make sure to replace the connection string and the SQL statements with those relevant to your database and schema.
Step 2: Add Your Seed Script to the Workflow
Next, you need to create a GitHub Actions workflow to run your seed script. Here’s an example .github/workflows/ci.yml file:
name: CI
on:
push:
branches: [ main ]
pull_request:
branches: [ main ]
jobs:
build:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
services:
postgres:
image: postgres:latest
ports:
- 5432:5432
env:
POSTGRES_USER: username
POSTGRES_DB: mydb
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: password
options: >-
--health-cmd pg_isready
--health-interval 10s
--health-timeout 5s
--health-retries 5
steps:
- name: Checkout code
uses: actions/checkout@v2
- name: Set up Go
uses: actions/setup-go@v3
with:
go-version: '1.18'
- name: Build
run: go build -v ./...
- name: Wait for Postgres
run: |
until pg_isready -h localhost -p 5432; do
echo "Waiting for postgres to be ready..."
sleep 1
done
- name: Run Seed Script
run: go run seed.go
env:
DATABASE_URL: postgres://username:password@localhost:5432/mydb?sslmode=disable
- name: Run Tests
run: go test -v ./...
env:
DATABASE_URL: postgres://username:password@localhost:5432/mydb?sslmode=disable
Explanation
Checkout code: This step checks out your code from the repository.
Set up Go: This step sets up the Go environment.
Build: This step builds your Go application.
Wait for Postgres: This step ensures that PostgreSQL is up and running before running your seed script.
Run Seed Script: This step runs the seed.go script to seed your database.
Run Tests: This step runs your Go tests, ensuring that they use the seeded data.
Step 3: Configure Your Seed Script and Tests
Ensure that your seed script and tests are configured to use the DATABASE_URL environment variable. This makes it easier to manage the connection string across different environments (local, CI, production, etc.).
Step 4: Commit and Push
Commit your changes and push them to your repository:
git add .
git commit -m "Add database seeding to GitHub Actions workflow"
git push origin main
This setup ensures that your database is seeded with the necessary data before running tests in the CI/CD pipeline. Modify the seeding logic and the SQL statements in the seed.go script as per your actual requirements.
