A skeleton project for GAE/Go + Dart + Polymer.dart.

You can see the actual website on App Engine at http://gae-go-dart-skeleton.appspot.com/

1. Setup Google App Engine/Go environment.

2. Setup Dart enviroment.

3. Clone the repository.

4. Set GOPATH like the following

   • For Windows: <path to repository>\vendor;<path to repository>
   • For Linux: <path to repository>/vendor:<path to repository>

5. Execute goapp get google.golang.org/appengine in repository root.

6. Execute pub get inside src/web directory to get packages.

7. Execute goapp serve at the repository root to start a local server, and access http://localhost:8080/ with Dartium to check if it's working.

8. Execute pub build inside src/web directory to convert dart files to JavaScript. You will have to change the app.yaml handlers according to which files you want to serve with goapp. You will also have to change the root directory path in main.go.

   • Handler for dev server

     - url: /(.*\.dart)
       static_files : web/web/\1
       upload: web/web/(.*\.dart)
     

   • Handler for deployed server (after pub build)

     - url: /(.*\.js)
       static_files : web/build/web/\1
       upload: web/build/web/(.*\.js)
     

   • root directory for dev server

       rootDirectory string = "web/web"
     

   • root directory for deployed server (after pub build)

       rootDirectory string = "web/build/web"
     

9. Change the application ID inside app.yaml to an ID that matches your own app ID, and execute appcfg.py update . inside src to upload to App Engine.

Contains the Go backend code for the server.

Contains the Dart frontend code for the client.

Contains all web components used in the web app.

Contains all external Go packages. The GOPATH must be set correctly for this directory to work properly. This directory is empty at the beginning, and external code + libraries will be created by goapp after goapp get.
