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

Demo    RealWorld

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

We've gone to great lengths to adhere to the Golang + Revel community styleguides & best practices.

For more information on how to this works with other frontends/backends, head over to the RealWorld repo.

How it works

Below is the recommended layout of a Revel application, supplemented with domain entities and services.

my_gocode/ - GOPATH root
    src/ - GOPATH src/ directory
        github.com/revel/revel/ - Revel source code
        bitbucket.org/me/sample/ - Sample app root
            entities/ - domain entities
            app/ - app sources
                controllers/ - app controllers
                    init.go - interceptor registration
                models/ - app domain models
                jobs/ - app domain jobs
                services/ - app domain services
                routes/ - reverse routes (generated code)
                views/ - templates
                tmp/ - app main file, generated code
            tests/ - test suites
            conf/ - configuration files
                app.conf - main configuration file
                routes - routes definition file
            messages/ - i18n message files
            public/ - static/public assets
                css/ - stylesheet files
                js/ - javascript files

Getting started

1. Install docker and docker-compose to your system
2. Add 127.0.0.1 api.realworld.wip to your /etc/hosts file
3. Copy .env.docker to .env in the project root
4. Start nginx-proxy
5. Generate a Docker bundle from the Compose file docker-compose build
6. Create and start containers docker-compose up

• To start the nginx-proxy, type the following command:

docker run -d -p 80:80 -p 443:443 --name nginx-proxy --net reverse-proxy -v $HOME/certs:/etc/nginx/certs:ro -v /etc/nginx/vhost.d -v /usr/share/nginx/html -v /var/run/docker.sock:/tmp/docker.sock:ro --label com.github.jrcs.letsencrypt_nginx_proxy_companion.nginx_proxy=true jwilder/nginx-proxy
