ChristmasList

to use:

1. cd /opt && sudo git clone https://github.com/sharkpick/ChristmasList
2. cd ChristmasList && go build
3. ./christmaslist

this will get you to the basic running version. It uses a sqlite3 database on the backend which it will create. you do not need sqlite3 installed on the machine (but will need to download some dependencies for dealing with the database anyhow - see the go.mod file and read error output during go build step to see which packages you're missing. install them with go get -u <packagename>)

to make a service:

1. change the christmaslist.service file
   • under [Service] change User to the desired username
   • under [Service] change ExecStart and WorkingDirectory to point to the correct directory, if you chose an alternative install location.
2. sudo cp christmaslist.service /etc/systemd/system/
3. sudo systemctl daemon-reload
4. sudo systemctl start christmaslist.service
5. optional: enable (automatically restart at reboot):
   • sudo systemctl enable christmaslist.service
