Dash Annotations

a Dash 3 compatible annotations server written in go

features

• tiny footprint & minimal dependencies
• supports mysql & sqlite3
• full offline support (annotation rendering does not load bootstrap from cdn)

Usage

Assuming you're trying to get the annotations backend up and running for the first time:

• create a mysql db, I'll call mine dash3

• build the project:

  ```$ gb build```
  

• run the migrations:

  $ ./bin/migrate -datasource="root:@/dash3?parseTime=true" -driver=mysql

• start the api:

  $ ./bin/server -datasource="root@/dash3" -driver=mysql

• lastly, instruct dash to talk to your API instead of the public api:

  defaults write com.kapeli.dashdoc AnnotationsCustomServer "http://localhost:8000"
