func Bootstrap ¶ added in v0.1.1

func Bootstrap(configPtr interface{}) bool

Bootstrap - bootstraps the configuration loading, parsing and reporting for a service through cmd flags. The argument configPtr should be a pointer to a serializable configuration object with all default values.

Bootstrap allows a user to do the following: - Print version and build info and exit - Load an optional configuration file (supports JSON, YAML) - Print the config file (supports JSON, YAML) and exit

NOTE: The user may request a version and build time stamp, in which case Bootstrap will print the values of util.version and util.dateBuilt. To populate those values you must run go build with the following:

-ldflags "-X github.com/jeffail/leaps/util.version $(VERSION) \
	-X github.com/jeffail/leaps/util.dateBuilt $(DATE)"

Returns a flag indicating whether the service should continue or not.
