- Fix version injection in build
- Refactor Makefile
- Add --new-config flag to generate sample config
- Add license
- Remove autogenerated frontend README
- Refactor make dist to do end-to-end build
- Refactor build and add goreleaser conf
This is a big commit that involves drastic changes to how static assets
(.sql and template files, the whole frontend bundle) are handled.
listmonk distribution should be a self-contained single binary
distribution, hence all static assets should be bundled. After
evaluating several solutions, srtkkou/zgok seemed like the best bet but
it lacked several fundamental features, namely the ability to fall back
to the local filesystem in the absence of embedded assets (for instance,
in the dev mode). Moreover, there was a lot of room for cleanup.
After a PR went unanswered, github.com/knadh/stuffbin was created. Just
like zgok, this enables arbitrary files and assets to be embedded into a
compiled Go binary that can be read during runtime. These changes
followed:
- Compress and embed all static files into the binary during
the build (Makefile) to make it standalone and distributable
- Refactor static paths (/public/* for public facing assets,
/frontend/* for the frontend app's assets)
- Add 'logo_url' to config
- Remove 'assets_path' from config
- Tweak yarn build to not produce symbol maps and override
the default /static (%PUBLIC_URL%) path to /frontend
