Templates don't seem to be found #18

Open ismith opened 7 years ago

ismith commented 7 years ago

If I cd to $GOPATH/src/github.com/flexd/slackinviter/main.go, slackinviter -h runs fine; if not, main.go can't find templates/index.tmpl.

It searches for the templates relative to the binary. When you run go run main.go the binary ends up in /tmp somewhere, and the templates are not copied there. I want to embed the templates in the future, but I'm also lazy and it works for us 😛

You can use something like this to find the directory corresponding to an import path inside GOPATH, and os.Chdir into it during command initialization:

Not the go run case - slackinviter is in my PATH, so it can be run from any cwd; but parseFiles loads relative to the cwd. I'll open a PR if I can figure out a way to do this that doesn't break the build. (go-bindata uses go generate, which is nice, but isn't integrated with go build AFAIK.)

I suspect the same issue affects the contents of static/.
