golang-gin-deploy — Containerization & Deployment

Package and deploy Gin APIs to production. This skill covers the essential deployment patterns: multi-stage Docker builds, local dev with docker-compose, and Kubernetes manifests with health checks.

When to Use

• Dockerizing a Go Gin application for the first time
• Setting up local development with docker-compose (app + postgres + redis)
• Deploying a Gin API to Kubernetes
• Configuring health check endpoints and readiness/liveness probes
• Managing configuration with environment variables (12-factor)
• Setting up CI/CD pipelines for a Gin project
