Websocket chat written on golang

P.S. This project was written in 2017 and became outdated. New version could be found here

In this project I try to understand, how to create web apps using golang.

There are so many examples about creating simple chats, but unfortunately to little about creating complex web solutions with authentication and config management, etc.

So in this project I try to discribe as many different web problem solving, as I can.

To start server you need to copy example.json to config.json and change values, configure database connection

cp example.json config.json

Also you need to install all dependencies using Govendor tool

go get -u github.com/kardianos/govendor
govendor sync

Than you need to build binary file

go build -o output_binary .

And run binary file

./output_binary
