A simple go web app illustrating:

• Reading TOML config files
• Connecting to mySQL DB
• Simple authentication
• Gorilla mux
• Gorilla sessions
• Storing passwords with bcrypt
• Application Context rather than global variables

1. git clone git@github.com:andrewaustin/go-example-webapp.git
2. cd go-example-webapp
3. cp config.example.toml config.toml
4. Modify config.toml to suit your needs.
5. cat schemas/*.sql | mysql -u root -p -D <database name>
6. go run *.go

• Lock down routes
• REST endpoints
• Tests
• Use https://github.com/juju/errgo
