oh-wo / acgtweet-go

Fun project to try out using go and the google app engine.

Acgtweet

Requirements

• Postgress
• Google app engine SDK.
• mysql brew install mysql unset TMPDIR mysql_install_db --verbose --user=whoami --basedir="$(brew --prefix mysql)" --datadir=/usr/local/var/mysql
• To use psql acgtweet on the command line:
  echo 'export PATH="/Applications/Postgres.app/Contents/Versions/9.4/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile

Installation

1. All packages will automatically download (are already downloaded?) with the exception of the following:

• go get github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql

Development

1. Start mysql mysql.server start
2. To run the local environment goapp serve hello.go

• This will start a local server running at localhost:8080
• Will watch files and auto recompile.
• Note that there is no need for a main() because we use the google app engine. TODO: To make the code more portable we could include a main which would call hello.go.

Deployment

1. To upload to google app engine: appcfg.py -A acgtweet -V v1 update ./ (goapp deploy may also work if your pc is setup...)

Mysql

• Connect mysql -u root -p (password==password).
• Create user CREATE USER 'user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password'; GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON * . * TO 'user'@'localhost'; Reload privileges FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
• connect acgtweet
