Vim-Tips.com is a site to share tips for Vim.

The first version of Vim-Tips.com is written by Rails.

Now I re-designed this whole site and implemented it by Go & Martini web framework.

• Go environment is needed.
• MongoDB is installed.

Download sample DB from: https://github.com/TimothyYe/vim-tips-web/tree/master/db

• Unzip the database, the DB directory is: vim_tips
• Restore it to MongoDB

mongorestore -h localhost -u user -p pass -d vim_tips ./vim_tips

Note that username and password is the id and password for your MongoDB, for the default, -u & -p is not needed.

• Get source code from Github:

git clone https://github.com/TimothyYe/vim-tips-web.git

• Go into the source code directory, get related library and then build it:

cd vim-tips-web
go get
go build

• Run vim-tips-web site:

nohup ./vim-tips-web &

• Now, type http://localhost:3000 in web browser to visit the site.

Use default username & password to logon admin panel:

• Username is:[email protected]
• Password is:111
