Static Files

This directory contains the embedded static files for the WhatsHooked landing page.

Files

• index.html - Landing page with API documentation
• logo.png - WhatsHooked logo (from assets/image/whatshooked_tp.png)

How It Works

These files are embedded into the Go binary using go:embed directive in static.go.

When you build the server:

go build ./cmd/server/

The files in this directory are compiled directly into the binary, so the server can run without any external files.

Updating the Landing Page

1. Edit the HTML:

   vim pkg/handlers/static/index.html
   

2. Rebuild the server:

   go build ./cmd/server/
   

3. Restart the server:

   ./server -config bin/config.json
   

The changes will be embedded in the new binary.

Updating the Logo

1. Replace the logo:

   cp path/to/new-logo.png pkg/handlers/static/logo.png
   

2. Rebuild:

   go build ./cmd/server/
   

Routes

• GET / - Serves index.html
• GET /static/logo.png - Serves logo.png
• GET /static/* - Serves any file in this directory

Development Tips

• Files are cached with Cache-Control: public, max-age=3600 (1 hour)
• Force refresh in browser: Ctrl+Shift+R or Cmd+Shift+R
• Changes require rebuild - no hot reload
• Keep files small - they're embedded in the binary

Benefits of Embedded Files

✅ Single binary deployment - No external dependencies ✅ Fast serving - Files loaded from memory ✅ No file system access - Works in restricted environments ✅ Portable - Binary includes everything ✅ Version controlled - Static assets tracked with code
