Isomorphic Go App (isogoapp)

A basic, barebones web app, intented to be used as a starting point for developing an Isomorphic Go application.

Installation

The instructions assume that you are using a Unix-like operating system (e.g. BSD, Linux, Mac OS, etc).

If you are using Windows, you may need to adapt the installation instructions, most notably for setting up the ISOGO_APP_ROOT environment variable.

Prerequisites

It is assumed that the latest version of Go is already installed on your system and that you have properly configured your Go workspace.

Get the isogoapp project

go get -u github.com/isomorphicgo/isogoapp

Define the ISOGO_APP_ROOT environment variable.

export ISOGO_APP_ROOT=${GOPATH}/src/github.com/isomorphicgo/isogoapp

Build the Client-Side Go App

cd $ISOGO_APP_ROOT/client

go get ./...

gopherjs build

Run the Web Server Instance

cd $ISOGO_APP_ROOT

go run isogoapp.go

The web server runs locally on port 8080: localhost:8080.

If all goes well, you should see the Isomorphic Go logo, along with a message rendered on the web page.

Where to now?

Kick

Once you've installed, and confirmed, that the basic Isomorphic Go application is working, the next logical step is to install Kick.

Kick automatically recompiles Go code, and it has the ability to take both the go and gopherjs commands into consideration.

Kick performs an instant kickstart of the web server instance, upon the modification of a Go source file. Check out Kick
