app

Overview ¶

Package app is the public entry point for embedding artel as a library.

internal/app cannot be imported outside this module (Go's internal-package rule), so an external repo that wants to build artel from source without forking it depends on github.com/ruf-dev/artel and imports this package instead:

import "github.com/ruf-dev/artel/pkg/app"

func main() {
	a, err := app.New()
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal().Err(err).Msg("Failed to create application")
	}

	err = a.Start()
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal().Err(err).Msg("Failed to start application")
	}
}

The resulting binary still needs the config/ directory (or -config) next to it at runtime, same as cmd/service.
