The goal of this project is to create a simple server with a small, well-defined API to support a notification system across several applications.

The project uses go 1.4.x is set up to use gb for building and vendoring:

# First make sure you have go installed
$ brew install go

Next, make sure that your GOPATH environment variable is set in your .bash_profile and that its bin directory is added to your PATH:

# add to your .bash_profile
export GOPATH="${HOME}/devdt/go"
export PATH="${GOPATH}/bin:${PATH}"

# Make sure you have gb installed (it will build and end up in ${GOPATH}/bin)
$ go get github.com/constabulary/gb/...

# Now clone the repo and build
$ git clone git@github.com:nivaha/notify.git
$ cd notify
$ gb build

You can get help by typing ./bin/notify -h

If you are using the Atom editor, we recommend using go-plus package

$ apm install go-plus

Doesn't really do anything yet - just set up for talking to the db and for handling routing.
