RealWorld Example App

Build Status codecov License: MIT GoDoc

Golang/Gin/Slowpoke codebase containing real world examples (CRUD, auth, advanced patterns, etc) that adheres to the RealWorld spec and API.

This codebase was created to demonstrate a fully fledged fullstack application built with Golang/Gin including CRUD operations, authentication, routing, pagination, and more.

This app use slowpoke as database. Package slowpoke implements a low-level key/value store in pure Go.

don't use this code in production I just ported this project https://github.com/gothinkster/golang-gin-realworld-example-app from sqlite to my database - but i don't do any code review

My app, as this app - absolutely ugly. It does tons of database requests on each web request That's a terrible part of code what i don't fix, sorry for that.. I feel shame I just learned golang on this project.

I fixed it and write high load optimized code in another project, similar to real world - https://github.com/recoilme/tgram

➜  echo $PATH
...:/usr/local/go/bin:/Users/zitwang/test//bin:/usr/local/go//bin

Install Govendor & Fresh

I used Govendor manage the package, and Fresh can help build without reload

https://github.com/pilu/fresh

cd 
go get -u github.com/kardianos/govendor
go get -u github.com/pilu/fresh
