varnamd

=============

Varnam daemon which also acts as a HTTP server. This program powers http://varnamproject.com

Installation

You do not have to git clone the repo. Use the following command to clone and install varnamd:

go get github.com/varnamproject/varnamd

You need to have set the $GOPATH environment variable for this to work. Do not worry about the directory structure since it will be created for you by the previous go get.

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/varnamproject/varnamd

go install

The binaries should now be present in $GOPATH/bin/

./$GOPATH/bin/varnamd to run the server
