Go

To use our example repositories, you must create a Sevalla account. This is an example of how to set up a Go application to deploy on Sevalla’s Application Hosting services from a Git repository.

  1. In Sevalla, click Applications > Add application > select Git repository > Public repository, and complete as follows:
  2. Enter a Name, choose a Location, choose a pod size within Resources, and click Create & deploy.

During deployment, Sevalla automatically detects the Start command for the web process and installs dependencies defined in your go.mod file. The app is available as soon as the deployment finishes, and the Sevalla Welcome page loads at your application’s URL.

Web server setup

Port

Sevalla automatically sets the PORT environment variable. You do not need to define it or hard-code it into the application. Use os.Getenv("PORT") in your code when referring to the server port.

Start command

For this application, the Start command can be left blank. When you add the application, Sevalla automatically detects the required start command for the web process during the first deployment.
