Embed Resources

Ship a single binary that contains its own HTML, CSS, and images. Go’s embed package compiles the files in, and app.StaticFS serves them. Nothing needs to be copied next to the executable at deploy time.

package main

import (
  "embed"
  "io/fs"
  "log"

  "github.com/0mjs/zinc"
)

//go:embed public
var assets embed.FS

func main() {
  public, err := fs.Sub(assets, "public")
  if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
  }

  app := zinc.New()
  if err := app.StaticFS("/", public); err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
  }

  log.Fatal(app.Listen())
}

Files under public/ are now part of the executable. Configure zinc.WithStaticIndex("index.html") for a different index filename or zinc.WithStaticBrowse(true) to allow directory listings.
