Welcome to app.go v3.0
app.go is a simple web framework for use in Google AppEngine. Just copy the app folder to your working folder and import it from your main program. That's it. A web application ready to run in no time. Also, app.go comes with a powerful datastore manager to simplify your interactions with BigTable, making your code cleaner and safer.
Here is the Guestbook example from AppEngine rewritten using app.go
package hello
import(
"app"
"models"
)
func init() {
app.Start()
app.Get ("/index", index)
app.Post("/sign" , sign )
}
func index(ctx app.Context) {
recs := models.GetGreetings(ctx,10)
ctx.Render("index",recs)
}
func sign(ctx app.Context) {
rec := models.Greeting{
Author : ctx.User.Nick,
Content: ctx.GetValue("content"),
}
models.NewGreeting(ctx,rec)
ctx.Redirect("/")
}
As you can see, with app.go we make it really easy to write web apps in go. We welcome your feedback for any special request or bug fix.
Enjoy!
