history
Project history and usage
Gebug is a command-line developer tool for debugging Dockerized Go applications. Its README describes debugger and hot-reload workflows driven by generated Dockerfile, Docker Compose, and project configuration files.
Project history
The public GitHub repository was created in July 2020. The README presents Gebug as a Go application debugging environment for containers, with commands to initialize, start, clean, destroy, and manage a web UI for a project.
Adoption history
The official installation instructions support Homebrew on Linux and macOS and `go install` on Go-supported platforms. The README also documents an upgrade path from v1.x to v2.0, which suggests existing users had generated project configuration that needed regeneration.
How it is used
Practitioners run `gebug init` inside a Go application, edit generated files under `.gebug` when needed, and run `gebug start` or `gebug ui` to work with hot reload, Delve debugging, exposed ports, environment variables, and Docker networking.
Why package nerds care
For package users, Gebug is interesting as a Go CLI that packages a repeatable local container-debugging stack. It turns a set of Docker, Compose, Delve, and rebuild conventions into a command users can install through Homebrew or Go tooling.
Timeline
- 2020: Public GitHub repository created.
- 2020s: README documents Homebrew and Go installation paths.
- 2026: README documents v2.0 upgrade notes, including newer Go, runtime image, web UI, and Docker image defaults.
Related projects
- Gebug is closely related to Go, Docker, Docker Compose, Delve, and hot-reload tooling for containerized development.
