How to deploy Golang web application on Windows

Golang is a modern, high-performance programming language known for its excellent performance and reliability. In recent years, Golang has developed rapidly and has been a hot topic in the web development community. As its popularity continues to rise and it is increasingly used in web development, this article will introduce how to deploy Golang web applications on Windows.

1. Installing Golang

First, you need to install Golang on your Windows system. Visit the Golang official website (https://golang.org) to download the latest version of the Golang installer. Then, follow the prompts on the installer to install Golang.

2. Get your Golang web application

Before you start deploying your Golang web application, you need to make sure you have obtained the code for the application. If you haven't developed this application yet, you need to develop it first. If you have developed it, then make sure you have copied the code for this application to your Windows machine.

3. Compile your Golang web application

Next, you need to use the Golang compiler to compile your Golang web application. You need to open your terminal, go to the directory of your application, and enter the following command:

go build

If all goes well, the compiler will compile and generate an executable file.

4. Deploy your Golang Web application

Now, you need to deploy your Golang Web application to your Windows system. You can use any web server you like to deploy this application, but you need to make sure this web server supports Golang.

Some web servers that support Golang are:

• Nginx
• Apache
• Caddy

Here, We will use Nginx as the web server. Please follow the steps below for this process:

• Install Nginx and start it
• Open your Nginx configuration file and add the following content in the server block:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name YOURSERVERNAME;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:8080;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    }
}

• Modify YOURSERVERNAME to your server name
• Run the following command in the terminal:

sudo ln -s /path/to/your/app /usr/share/nginx/html

Check whether your application can be accessed in the browser.

5. Start your Golang web application

Now, you need to start your Golang web application by running the following command:

./your-app-name

This will run your application on your server and listen on port 8080. You can also use the following command to specify a different port number:

./your-app-name -http :YOURPORT

Check whether your application can be accessed in the browser. If it can run normally, congratulations on successfully deploying one on your Windows system. Golang web application.

Summary

In this article, we introduced how to deploy Golang-based web applications on Windows. We discussed how to get your application code, how to compile your application, how to deploy it, how to start it, and how to check that it has run successfully. If you are an experienced Golang developer, then you should be able to easily translate this process to the application deployment process for any other web server and operating system.
