gopherjs-electron

Atom/Electron (https://github.com/atom/electron/) desktop apps with Go. Package use https://github.com/gopherjs/gopherjs.

I am developing on OSX, but testing on Windows and Ubuntu.

Install

Package require electron-prebuilt npm-module

npm install -g electron-prebuilt

Usage

Look in cmd for basic example.

# Kick off backend and front end together.
go run all.go

Roadmap

  • DONE: When Electron starts, start / spawn the Golang backend web server
  • DONE: Get basic communication between Backend and Frontend working.
  • Package the FrontEnd into the golang binary.
  • Packaging for all OS's
    • icons
    • taskbar
    • notifications
    • exe (windows), mdg (osx), ? (liux)
  • More gopherjs modules: Polymer, etc, etc
  • Add BoltDB for a Desktop and Mobile DB
  • Add Cordova Packaging so it runs on mobile.

Test

For tests used Jasmine (http://jasmine.github.io/) and adapter fo go https://github.com/arvitaly/gopherjs-jasmine

go get github.com/arvitaly/gopherjs-jasmine
npm install electron-prebuilt -g
npm install
