- == Golang
-
- https://golang.org/[Golang] is a modern programming language that can
- compiles to static binaries for most common platforms. This can result
- in incredibly small docker images as you can build it from `scratch`.
-
- I'm increasing usling Golang in favour of Java, Kotlin or Python for
- writing services.
-
- === Handling interrupts
-
- Use the `signal` package to receive signals and put them
- into a channel:
-
- [source]
- ----
- c := make(chan os.Signal, 1)
- signal.Notify(c, os.Interrupt)
- signal.Notify(c, syscall.SIGTERM)
- ----
-
- Then at the end of the main method you can perform a
- blocking read on the channel:
-
- [source]
- ----
- <-c
- ----
