[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/pilu/fresh.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/pilu/fresh)

Fresh is a command line tool that builds and (re)starts your web application everytime you save a Go or template file.

If the web framework you are using supports the Fresh runner, it will show build errors on your browser.

It currently works with [Traffic](https://github.com/pilu/traffic), [Martini](https://github.com/codegangsta/martini) and [gocraft/web](https://github.com/gocraft/web).

## Installation

    go get github.com/pilu/fresh

## Usage

    cd /path/to/myapp

Start fresh:

    fresh

Fresh will watch for file events, and every time you create/modify/delete a file it will build and restart the application.

If `go build` returns an error, it will log it in the tmp folder.

[Traffic](https://github.com/pilu/traffic) already has a middleware that shows the content of that file if it is present. This middleware is automatically added if you run a Traffic web app in dev mode with Fresh.

Check the `_examples` folder if you want to use it with Martini or Gocraft Web.

`fresh` uses `./runner.conf` for configuration by default, but you may specify an alternative config filepath using `-c`:

    fresh -c other_runner.conf

Here is a sample config file with the default settings:

    root:              .

    tmp_path:          ./tmp

    build_name:        runner-build

    build_log:         runner-build-errors.log

    valid_ext:         .go, .tpl, .tmpl, .html

    no_rebuild_ext:    .tpl, .tmpl, .html

    ignored:           assets, tmp

    build_delay:       600

    colors:            1

    log_color_main:    cyan

    log_color_build:   yellow

    log_color_runner:  green

    log_color_watcher: magenta
