Docker container to run JetBrains GoLand (https://www.jetbrains.com/go/)

Usage

docker run --rm \
  -e DISPLAY=${DISPLAY} \
  -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
  -v ~/.GoLand:/home/developer/.GoLand \
  -v ~/.GoLand.java:/home/developer/.java \
  -v ~/Project/go:/home/developer/go \
  --security-opt=seccomp:unconfined \

rycus86/goland:${IDE_VERSION}

Docker Hub Page: https://hub.docker.com/r/rycus86/goland/ (available versions)

OS X instructions

1. Install XQuartz from https://www.xquartz.org/releases/
2. Configure Allow connections from network clients in the settings
   • Restart the system (needed only once when this is enabled)
3. Run xhost +localhost in a terminal to allow connecting to X11 over the TCP socket
4. Use -e DISPLAY=host.docker.internal:0 for passing the ${DISPLAY} environment

For Windows hosts (simplified):

docker.exe run --rm -d ^
     --name goland ^
     -e DISPLAY=YOUR_IP_ADDRESS:0.0 ^
     -v %TEMP%\.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix ^
     -v %USERPROFILE%\goland:/home/developer ^
     rycus86/goland:%IDE_VERSION%

Notes

You'll still need a license to use the application!

The IDE will have a recent Go version installed. Project folders need to be mounted like -v ~/Project/go:/home/developer/go (GOPATH will point to this). The actual name can be anything - I used something random to be able to start multiple instances if needed. You might want to consider using --network=host if you're running servers from the IDE.
