+# go-postgres-react
+
+This is for creating a Contacts application with the following components:
+
+- [x] a Golang backend
+- [x] a Postgresql database for saving data
+      -- the corresponding Volume for persistent storage
+- [] a react frontend app for serving the UI
+
+## Create a volume and deploy postgresql
+
+```console
+$ cd github.com/kraftcloud/examples/postgres
+
+github.com/kraftcloud/examples/postgres$ kraft cloud volume create --name postgres --size 200
+
+github.com/kraftcloud/examples/postgres$ kraft cloud deploy --metro fra0 -M 1024 -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=unikraft -e PGDATA=/volume/postgres -v postgres:/volume -p 5432:5432/tls .
+(Search for `service group` in the output)
+
+# Port-forward postgresql to localhost
+github.com/kraftcloud/examples/postgres$ kraft cloud tunnel <SERVICE_GROUP_FROM_ABOVE> 5432:5432
+
+
+$ psql -U postgres -h localhost
+Password for user postgres: unikraft
+psql (16.2)
+Type "help" for help.
+
+postgres=# CREATE TABLE contacts (id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT, email TEXT);
+CREATE TABLE
+postgres=#
+
+
+```
+
+## Deploy the backend:
+
+```console
+github.com/kraftcloud/examples/go-postgres-react/go$ kraft cloud deploy --metro fra0 -p 443:8080 .
+(Search for `domain` in the output)
+
+# Ensure that the backend API works fine by talking to the db
+
+# Empty response first
+$ curl -vv https://DOMAIN_FROM_ABOVE.fra0.kraft.host/contacts
+null
+
+# Create contact next
+$ curl -v https://DOMAIN_FROM_ABOVE.fra0.kraft.host/contacts -d '{ "name": "example1", "email": "one@example.com" }'
+
+# Ensure the new contact is saved and retrieved from db via the backend
+$ curl https://DOMAIN_FROM_ABOVE.fra0.kraft.host/contacts
+[{"name":"example1","email":"one@example.com"}]
+
+# Above backend API confirms data is saved, but let us check in DB also
+$ psql -U postgres -h localhost
+Password for user postgres: unikraft
+psql (16.2)
+Type "help" for help.
+
+postgres=# select * from contacts;
+ id |   name   |      email
+----+----------+-----------------
+  1 | example1 | one@example.com
+(1 row)

+# Simple Go 1.21 HTTP Server
+
+This is a simple HTTP server written in the [Go](https://go.dev/) programming language.
+
+To run this example on KraftCloud, first [install the `kraft` CLI tool](https://unikraft.org/docs/cli).
+Then clone this examples repository and `cd` into this directory, and invoke:
+
+```console
+kraft cloud deploy --metro fra0 -p 443:8080 .
+```
+
+The command will build and deploy the `server.go` source code file.
+
+After deploying, you can query the service using the provided URL.
