question about go install and webapp structure

[Yan Dai]

Hi,

I have question about go install and a go webapp structure.

Currently, I have a webapp which the project structure is look like:

                                     myproject/

                                              bin/

                                              src/

                                                   mygoproject/

                                                                       main.go

                                                                       views/

                                                                                 index.gtpl

Then I do go install inside the mygoproject/. There will be binary file built in the /bin folder. However, the web pages in views is not copyed to bin/.

When I run the binary file in the bin/, it will not found the webpages and throw exceptions so I have to manually copy the views/ folder to the bin/.

Is this correct?should the vies also be included in the binary file?

regards,

Yan

Yes, this is correct. go install only deals with Go code and binaries.

If your app needs other files to work, then you should either include those files in the binary (maybe using the new go generate command) or don't use go install (directly, at least).
