Code examples

In this section you'll discover how to create code examples for Testcontainers for Go, which are almost the same as Go modules, but without exporting any public API.

Their main goal is to create shareable code snippets on how to use certain technology (e.g. a database, a web server), in order to explore its usage before converting the example module into a real Go module exposing a public API.

Please refer to the documentation of the code generation tool here.
