[Meta] Easiest way to package a Go app for Sandstorm? #31

I'll be doing exactly this very soon. Thanks!

Setting up a go app for sandstorm shouldn't be much different from any other kind of app. I tend to use vagrant-spk so that I can develop on my mac. Vagrant-spk has 'stacks' but does not include go, since I don't think there's a consistent enough deploy strategy to need it. (at least, compared to something like php or rails) I'd use the diy stack.

Then, it's just a matter of modifying setup.sh to get the go build toolchain and then doing the build in build.sh. It's easiest if your app just listens on port 8000, which is what vagrant-spk expects by default.

If you run into issues or have further questions, the sandstorm-dev google group is a great place to ask them.

@mnutt Ha ha, sorry about that! I looked at the source of Davros and https://github.com/zombiezen/filedrop at about the same time and thought Davros was written in Go, which is why I bothered asking about packaging Go apps here :-).
