A server to serve movies

The server component is written entirely in Go, and requires version >= 1.1

The tests are written with Python 2.7 and the environment is set up with virtualenv. To install virtualenv, run

$ pip install virtualenv

If you haven't set $GOPATH on your machine, you should run the following commands before installing:

$ mkdir -p $HOME/gocode
$ export $GOPATH=$HOME/gocode
$ export $PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin

The $GOPATH location above is just an example. You can use any directory. You may want to store the above commands in your .bashrc or another configuration file.

To install or update the movie server, run the following code:

$ go get -u github.com/manugoyal/movieserver

This should install all of the server's dependencies as well.

To build the testing virtualenv, execute

$ make testdeps

To run the server:

$ movieserver -path [location-name]=[path-to-directory] [-path ...]

There are a number of settings you can tweak via command line flags. To get a complete description of the settings, run

$ movieserver -help

To run the tests, execute

$ make test

Note: On Macs, Python may not know where to find certain MySQL client dylibs when importing the _mysql library. In order to fix this, set the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to the location of your MySQL installation's library directory (possibly /usr/local/mysql/lib)
