Netflix Eureka client in golang. Named for the show Eureka.

c = fargo.NewConn("http://127.0.0.1:8080/eureka/v2")
c.GetApps() // returns a map[String]fargo.Application

Tests can be executed using docker container. See the below section to build and start all the required containers. Once the Eureka containers are running, and fargo image is built then you can run the command as follows:

Run:

docker run --rm -v "$PWD":/go/src/github.com/hudl/fargo -w /go/src/github.com/hudl/fargo hudloss/fargo:master go test -v ./...

Note: If you are running bash for Windows add MSYS_NO_PATHCONV=1 at the beginning.

The tests may need to be run a couple of times to allow changes to propagate between the two Eureka servers. If the tests are failing, try running them again approximately 30 seconds later.

If you are adding new packages to godep you may want to update the hudloss/fargo image first.

Until this PR is in an official vagrant release, the Fedora 19 opscode box will fail when setting up private networks in vagrant 1.2.5 and later.

Q: Is this a full client?

A: Not yet. It's very much a work in progress, and it's also being built with consideration for Go idioms, which means some Java-isms will never be included.

Q: Does it cache?

A: No, it does not support caching records.

Q: Can I integrate this into my Go app and have it manage hearbeats to Eureka?

A: Glad you asked, of course you can. Just grab an application (for this example, "TESTAPP")

// register a couple instances, and then set up to only heartbeat one of them
e, _ := fargo.NewConnFromConfigFile("/etc/fargo.gcfg")
app, _ := e.GetApp("TESTAPP")
// starts a goroutine that updates the application on poll interval
e.UpdateApp(&app)
for {
    for _, ins := range app.Instances {
        fmt.Printf("%s, ", ins.HostName)
    }
    fmt.Println(len(app.Instances))
    <-time.After(10 * time.Second)
}
// You'll see all the instances at first, and within a minute or two all the
// ones that aren't heartbeating will disappear from the list. Note that after
// calling `UpdateApp` there's no need to manually update

• Actually do something with AWS availability zone info
• Currently the load balancing is random, and does not give preference to servers within a zone.
• Make releases available on gopkg.in

go get github.com/hudl/fargo

package main

import (
    "github.com/hudl/fargo"
)

func main() {
    e, _ := fargo.NewConnFromConfigFile("/etc/fargo.gcfg")
    e.AppWatchChannel
}

go test is your friend. I use the excellent goconvey library in addition to the standard lib's testing package. If you add something, write a test. If something is broken, write a test that reproduces your issue or post repro steps to the issues on this repository. The tests require that you have a eureka install and are designed to run against the included vagrant specs.

We're on semver and tag releases accordingly. The releases are signed and can be verified with git tag --verify vA.B.C.

Fargo is tested against two eureka versions, v1.1.147 and v1.3.1. To support testing, we provide Docker containers that supply Eureka locally. Here's how to get started.

1. Clone Fargo
2. If you don't have it, install Docker.

# Defaults to 1.1.147, can be set to 1.3.1
EUREKA_VERSION=1.1.147

cp docker-compose.override.yml.dist docker-compose.override.yml

docker-compose up -d

# Run the tests
