# Quotation Explorer :earth_americas: :speech_balloon:
I wanted to write an web app using only the Golang standard library for routing. I also wanted a simple web API for getting a random quote as JSON.
This app fulfills both my goals: it is [a web app that uses the stdlib for routing, that allows you to click on a single word to quickly and easily
explore quotations](https://quotes.schollz.com) as well as [a way to get quotation JSONs with GET requests](https://quotes.schollz.com/random/3.json).
## Installation
```
git clone https://github.com/schollz/quotation-explorer.git
cd quotation-explorer
go get github.com/boltdb/bolt/...
go get gopkg.in/cheggaaa/pb.v1
go build
./quotation-explorer (this will load the quotations.json into db)
./quotation-explorer (this will now run the app!)
```
## Usage
Open a web browser and explore quotations! Explore over 120,000 quotes, with the click of a mouse.
## More information
The quotations are stored in the BoltDB `quotations.db`. The quotations themselves are stored in a bucket `data` and indexed in a bucket `index`.
