# Self.js [![GoDoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/nmerouze/selfjs?status.png)](https://godoc.org/github.com/nmerouze/selfjs)

Wrapper around [v8worker](https://github.com/ry/v8worker) and `net/http`. Run Universal React applications faster than Node.js.

# Setup

First you need to install [v8worker](https://github.com/ry/v8worker). Then:

```

go get -u github.com/nmerouze/selfjs

```

# Usage

``` go

import (

  "io/ioutil"

  "net/http"

  "runtime"

  "github.com/nmerouze/selfjs"

)

func main() {

  runtime.GOMAXPROCS(runtime.NumCPU())

  js, _ := ioutil.ReadFile("path/to/file.js")

  http.Handle("/", selfjs.New(runtime.NumCPU(), `

    selfjs.handleRequest = function(req, res) {

      res.write('Hello World!');

    }

  `))

  http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil)

}

```

# Example

```

cd example

npm install

npm run build

go run server.go

open http://localhost:8080

```

The application is rendered on the server. Both the client and the server share the same file (universal.js) with a few conditions to select the right rendering function. The code also runs on Node.js, just run `node server.js`. Self.js is 50% than Node.js while Node.js consumes 50% memory.
