Fresh

Fresh is a command line tool that builds and (re)starts your web application everytime you save a Go or template file.

If the web framework you are using supports the Fresh runner, it will show build errors on your browser.

It currently works with Traffic, Martini and gocraft/web.

Installation

go get github.com/openself/fresh

Usage

cd /path/to/myapp

Start fresh:

fresh

Fresh will watch for file events, and every time you create/modify/delete a file it will build and restart the application. If go build returns an error, it will log it in the tmp folder.

Traffic already has a middleware that shows the content of that file if it is present. This middleware is automatically added if you run a Traffic web app in dev mode with Fresh. Check the _examples folder if you want to use it with Martini or Gocraft Web.

fresh uses ./runner.conf for configuration by default, but you may specify an alternative config filepath using -c:

fresh -c other_runner.conf

Here is a sample config file with the default settings:

root:              .
tmp_path:          ./tmp
include:           ./path1:./path2
build_name:        runner-build
build_log:         runner-build-errors.log
valid_ext:         .go, .tpl, .tmpl, .html
no_rebuild_ext:    .tpl, .tmpl, .html
ignored:           assets, tmp
build_delay:       600
colors:            1
log_color_main:    cyan
log_color_build:   yellow
log_color_runner:  green
log_color_watcher: magenta
