paphos-backend

This is the backend for the official Pygmalion service.

Very early work-in-progress, not usable in any capacity. Also my first time writing Go, so very likely non-idiomatic.

Contributing

If you wish to contribute, this section contains some relevant information.

The stack is:

• Golang as the language of choice
• Buffalo as the web framework
• PostgreSQL as the main database

To get started, you need all of the above installed and functional on your machine.

For development, the default configuration expects a paphos user with password paphos to be available. You can then create the databases manually, or use buffalo pop create -a.

With PostgreSQL up and running and the development database created, you can apply the migrations:

$ buffalo pop migrate

And then boot up the development server:

$ PORT=3000 buffalo dev

The API should then be reachable at http://localhost:3000/.
