Integration testing Service Fabric & Traefik with Docker

Here is the plan:

  1. Use docker to run a Service Fabric Linux cluster in a container
  2. Deploy a test app to the cluster and create 25 instances of it

Aim: While developing the Traefik SF integration it will provide a simple cluster to use, debug and perform integration testing.

Autocomplete Kubernetes YAML files in VSCode

I’ve increasingly been working with Kubernetes and hence lots of YAML files.

It’s nice and easy to get autocomplete setup for the Kubernetes YAML using this awesome extension YAML Support by Red Hat

Setup:

  • Install the Extension
  • Add the following to your settings 
    "yaml.schemas": {
  "Kubernetes": "*.yaml"
}
  • Reload the editor

Here is me setting it up and showing it off:

Massive thanks to the team that worked on the extension and language server to support this!

Pass arguments to Golang program when debugging with VSCode

I’m doing some work on a golang project, the code takes a relative file path in as an argument.

Now I have Delve, VSCode and VSCode-Go installed which means I can have a nice interactive debugging session. The only snag I hit was that it wasn’t clear how to pass in my arguments when the debugger started my go code.

The trick is the use a double dash to indicate which arguments should go to the code, other args, before this, will go to the delve debugger. Also don’t forget to use “cwd” to set the working dir used when debugging.

Here is an example with comments

And we’re away…

N.B The behavior is a bit odd, as the code here suggests that the “–” should be appended for you. https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-go/blob/master/src/debugAdapter/goDebug.ts#L306. However, this did not work for me, may be fixed in the future so double check!
