Hi, For what you described, I wouldn't even use Docker (not trying to get into flame wars, just my opinion that not using it will keep your setup even simpler)
Some time ago I wrote this https://github.com/fmpwizard/mrwilson/tree/master/ansible it's a complete ansible set of playbooks, roles, etc that take a new fresh server running Fedora (so bare that it doesn't even have python) to a fully running server that has systemd setup for the service I'm deploying, sets some SELinux things, opens/closes ports using a firewall, etc. It assumes a few things: 1. you compile your go program locally (or from a ci server where you run the ansible playbook) 2. your user can already ssh into the server At work we use something similar, where our ci server running jenkins has a job that once triggered, it calls ansible, copies our files to the servers and then restarts the services Hope it helps.
