Run on Google Cloud

This demo application can be used as a stub image for newly created Cloud Run services.

The application is written in Go.

The default page prints the environment variables and a few critical GCP metadata, such as "project," "zone," etc.

Additionally, the application exposes a few extra endpoints:

  • /speed - to measure download speed from ipv4.download.thinkbroadband.com
  • /ip - to show the service public internet IP
  • /fs - to browse the service file system
  • /ls - to browse the service file system with more details

Note: The application is for educational purposes.
