This repository is a seed for API projects developed in Go. It contains the dependencies, basic structure, test scripts and coverage. It is possible to easily integrate it with other services like Travis Ci, Heroku and Coveralls.

Assuming a recent version installed of Go and the variables GOROOT and GOPATH already defined, the set of commands below should recreate this project locally on a machine. Otherwise, this installation guide available in official of the Golang site will help.

In addition, to manage possible dependencies this project use a vendor folder. Is possible restore dependencies using govendor whose installation instructions are available here or Godep whose installations instructions are available here.

Using govendor the following instructions should work fine, otherwise check the dependency manager documentation.

On Windows

> go get -u github.com/crissilvaeng/goseed
> cd %GOPATH%\github.com\crissilvaeng\goseed
> govendor sync
> go get
> goseed

On Linux

$ go get -u github.com/crissilvaeng/goseed
$ cd $GOPATH/github.com/crissilvaeng/goseed
$ govendor sync
$ go get
$ goseed

To test, run this command PORT=5000 go run main.go.

Then check the results with curl -i http://localhost:5000/v1/hello. If all went well, the following results should be obtained:
