A simple cron-like Windows service

2016-10-07

A couple of days ago, I uploaded a generic service in GitHub that has a feature of updating itself. Check out the post here. Today, I uploaded the actual service I’m using in our CI environment, excluding the configuration file. Check out the source code here.

A Windows service with an http endpoint for uploading a new version of itself

2016-09-27

Recently, I’ve been working on a service that runs on a lot of VM’s across different locations. If I have a new service build, updating all of the running instances quickly became a bit of a pain. I have to log in to every VM (in some cases through a VPN) and then do a manual upgrade. Now, there are probably tools that already exist for this type of use case but since I’m still learning Go at the moment, I thought this would be a good exercise.
