To compile the Go service, run:

$ go build -buildvcs -o grafana-image-renderer .

The following tools are also useful for engineers:

$ IMAGE=tag-here go test ./tests/acceptance/... -count=1 # run acceptance tests

Release

When you are ready to make a release, tag it in Git (git tag vX.Y.Z; remember the v prefix), then push it. GitHub Actions deals with the build and deployment.
