personal project, using go, beego and mongo to implement a new navigation page

you should install begoo at first, Run snp as a begoo project.

snp only provide apis at 8080 port(or others you pointed), it renders no pages/views, so it need a http server before it.

make a vhost rooted at paht/to/snp/html, that is the html folder under project. proxy all request to snp server except the index.html request, for:

all requests are pointed to index.html under html. using try_files to redirect api requests to snp, so you should config you vhost as below(using nginx):

upstream go_snp {
    server 127.0.0.1:8080;
    keepalive 300;
}

location / {
    try_files $uri /index.html;
    root   E:\go\src\snp\html;
    index  index.html index.htm;
}

location /api {
    proxy_pass http://go_snp;
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_set_header Connection "";
}

this config is a little tedious... though it is a really bad design, i like it. because i build it.

what you should do before run snp in your server is config the MongoDB. config it at /path/to/project/conf/app.conf replace the mgo host, port, username and password with your own.

this project is partly RESTful implemented, that is, for some apis they meet RESTful requires, but others designed at first does not.

1. one important thing is to change all apis to meet RESTful
2. for now, Package without a forkFrom property, so can't trace back where a forked package from...
