Go Micro Examples

This directory contains runnable examples demonstrating various go-micro features and patterns.

Quick Start

Each example can be run with go run . from its directory.

Examples

hello-world

Basic RPC service demonstrating core concepts:

• Service creation and registration
• Handler implementation
• Client calls
• Health checks

Run it:

cd hello-world
go run .

web-service

HTTP web service with service discovery:

• HTTP handlers
• Service registration
• Health checks
• JSON REST API

Run it:

cd web-service
go run .

Coming Soon

The following examples are planned:

• pubsub-events - Event-driven architecture with NATS
• grpc-integration - Using go-micro with gRPC
• production-ready - Complete production-grade service with observability

Prerequisites

Some examples require external dependencies:

• NATS: docker run -p 4222:4222 nats:latest
• Consul: docker run -p 8500:8500 consul:latest agent -dev -ui -client=0.0.0.0
• Redis: docker run -p 6379:6379 redis:latest

Contributing

To add a new example:

1. Create a new directory
2. Add a descriptive README.md
3. Include working code with comments
4. Add to this index
5. Ensure it runs with go run .
