dns-lookup-service

Dev Setup

git clone https://github.com/philip1986/dns-lookup-service.git
cd dns-lookup-service
docker-compose up --build

• Load the app in browser by opening: http://localhost:5000/

• Client side changes are reflected immediately via webpack hot-reload

• Test backend api via curl:

curl 'http://localhost:5000/api/v1/lookup/domain/tesla.com/recordtype/A?nserver=default'  

• after backend changes the golang server needs to be re-build and restarted. Just stop and re-run docker-compose up --build

Prod Setup

docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d --build

• The assets will be build in production mode (minified) and bundled as static files.
• Static file serving is done by Nginx
