JoJo

JoJo makes is easy to transform your scripts into an api.

I wanted something stupid easy to install that could be 100% repeated with code from configuration management. With this, I can create machines that have a single responsibility. I can also quit logging in from one machine into another.

Note

This is a rather dirty proof of concept and one of my first go projects...it could be better. If you'd like to contribute or make the go code better, I would be happy to accept pull requests.

Options

--config 'config file'
--host 'host'
--port 'port'
--cert '/path/to/cert'
--key '/path/to/key'
--user 'http basic user'
--password 'http basic password'

Get started

1. compile jojo (I'll eventually make a little repository, but it will probably be a while)
2. create a config file - this is where you tell jojo about your scripts and what url to serve them from
3. create an init file - jojo just logs to stderr and stdout - capture those in your logs however you like

Warning

This tool is a really sharp knife. You can do really stupid things with it. Use at your own risk and under close supervision from someone comfortable with doing dumb things in a safe way.
