comp698-final

Final project is to replicate the architecture we have worked on this semester with a new project. Follow the tasks below and when you're done, ensure your README.md file contains an explaination of the project. Ensure the README.md file contains a summary of the project which includes at a minimum the following information:

• Why use git?
• Why write an application in golang?
• What purpose does Travis CI serve?
• What is the purpose of terraform?
• Why use virtualized resources?
• Include a diagram of the architecture from laptop to GCP
• Why use bash commands vs clicking through UI?
• Why docker vs installing application directly on the host?
• What protections are there against accidentally introducing bad code into production?

Along the way, make sure that you:

• use meaningful commit messages
• make all changes beyond initial setup are made through pull requests

Tasks:

1. Create a new Github repo

• repository should be named comp698-final
• initialize it with a README.md
• clone it to your laptop
• configure the Github repo to protect your master branch
  • require status checks before merging
  • including administrators

2. initial hello world application

• create a hello world server using this source helloworld-source

3. add Dockerfile

• Create a Dockerfile based on the content here helloworld-dockerfile or see the diff of what is changed diff

4. add travis ci PR validation

• add a .travis.yml file through a PR based on this source helloworld-travisci or see the diff of what is changed diff

5. update travis ci for PR validation and functional testing

• trigger a build and make sure it passes

6. add GCP build trigger

• trigger should build new docker images based on changes to master
• publish images to your GCP project with the gcr.io/$PROJECT_ID/$REPO_NAME:$COMMIT_SHA format
• ensure the comp698-final repo is able to build a new image by triggering a build

7. create terrform to deploy hello world version to 1 staging server

• add terraform configuartion files to your github repo in a terraform subdirectory
• use the terraform-configuration server to deploy a hello world server to a "staging" server with an external ip address
• ensure your webpage loads

8. update application code to full

• update your application code to a javascript bootstrapped server based on the source bootstrap-source or see the diff of what is changed diff
• from the next version of the application bootstrap-source
  • update the main.go, main_test.go, Dockerfile, functional-test.sh files
  • include the static directory
• ensure the merged changes successfully build a new image in GCP

9. update terraform to deploy full app to 1 staging server and hello world to 1 prod server

• update the terraform configuration files
• use the terraform-configuration server to move the hello world server to a "prod" instance and the bootstrap server to a "staging" server
• ensure the "prod" server loads a hello world response
• ensure the "staging" server loads a bootstrap server (use a http://[ip address]/home)
