Sending an event

1

Creating an account

First things first, get signed in and create your team.

2

Creating an app

In Sailhouse, apps are the logical separators for your topics. This could be environments, projects or both!

3

Create a token

To send an event to an application, we need a token to pass into our SDK.

Go to your new app > Settings > Create

4

Start sending events

First, adding the SDK package

Adding the package
go get -u github.com/sailhouse/sdk-go/sailhouse

Then, a basic example which reads the token from an environment variable SAILHOUSE_TOKEN.

main.go
package main

import (
    "github.com/sailhouse/go-sdk/sailhouse"
)

func main() {
  client := sailhouse.NewSailhouseClient(os.Getenv("SAILHOUSE_TOKEN"))

  client.Publish("awesome-example", map[string]string{
    "message": "Hello World!",
  })
}
