GoEngine Boilerplate is combination of serveral different repositories, some made for Go some not.
The project is built using with Sinatra style routing and MySQL support. HTML Structure and design using h5bp(http://html5boilerplate.com) and Twitter Bootstrap(http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap). Javascript templating is done with mustache.js, but has not been baked into requireJS. The javascript component incorporates RequireJS for dependency management.
IMPORTANT: If you are using Google AppEngine, use the gae branch.
You can deploy this app manually or using Capistrano. If you choose to use Capistrano, here's an example to prompt for populating the ConnectionString so you can keep it out of your public repo for testing purposes:
default_run_options[:pty] = true
ssh_options[:forward_agent] = true
set :application, "ApplicationName"
set :appname, "application-name"
set :repository, "git@github.com:youraccount/yourrepo.git"
set :scm, :git
set :scm_passphrase, ""
set :user, "linuxuser"
role :web, "server1.address.com", "server2.address.com"
role :app, "server1.address.com", "server2.address.com"
set :deploy_to, "/home/#{user}/#{application}"
set :deploy_via, :remote_cache
set :use_sudo, false
set :sudo_prompt, ""
set :normalize_asset_timestamps, false

set(:database_username) { Capistrano::CLI.ui.ask("Database Username:") }
set(:database_password) { Capistrano::CLI.password_prompt("Database Password:") }

end
task :start do ; end
task :stop do
kill_processes_matching "#{appname}"
end
task :restart do
restart_cmd = "#{current_release}/#{appname} -http=127.0.0.1:8080 -path=#{deploy_to}/current/"
run "nohup sh -c '#{restart_cmd} &' > nohup.out"

def kill_processes_matching(name)
run "ps -ef | grep #{name} | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2}' | sudo xargs kill -2 || echo 'no process with name #{name} found'"
endDepending on the server you're on, you may need to define the path of the application as a flag in the deployment script or when running manually on the server. The reason for that is the server may have issues pathing the static files in the project. The example in the script above should help get the deployment working properly with the right static file paths.
mustache.js has been converted to use [[ ]] as delimiters so it can play nice with golang's html/template package.
