Developing Powerful CLIs using Go

Wed, 28 Aug 2019 00:00:00 +0000

In this meetup, I talked about how to develop powerful CLIs with Go. Custom CLIs are important tools in any automation. I went through a few use-cases where developing custom CLIs makes sense.

Go is the “goto” programming language for the DevOps. We will understand how to start with Go development, local IDE setup, and explore popular packages written in go.

I demonstrated all of it by creating a custom CLI using Go and utilized it to automate a few CI/CD tasks.

In this meetup, I went through the process of automating AWS infrastructure and follow Infrastructure as Code (IaC) principles using AWS CloudFormation.

I went through the best practices of writing AWS CloudFormation templates, IDE support available for CF schema validation, and tools to use to test it during the build time.

I also explored when it makes sense to use AWS CloudFormation over Terraform.

This meetup was organized by Cloud Collective meetup group and event details are available here.
