How to run it:

First you need universal-ctags. As soon as it installed put it to run like:

ctags --recurse=yes --fields=* --output-format=json -f ctags.json $DIR

where $DIR is the directory that you want to index.

After that you have to move the ctags.json to the mongodb.

You do it using the tool index-go. It should be called like:

./index-go $MONGODB $MYCTAGSJSON

where $MONGODB is the ip of your mongodb server and $MYCTAGSJSON your ctags.json

then import source code from $DIR

./import-go $MONGODB $DB code $DIR # the collection is hardcoded in the web-go, we have to fix it

After that, starts the server rom web-go as:

./web-go $MONGODB $DB $COLLECTION

Now you can point your browser to http://$SERVER:8080/ and you are able to search for your tags

Running mongodb with Docker:

To do it you have to do the following:

docker build -t ctags-web .

and after that you enter in the bash:

docker run -ti -v "$PWD:/ctags-web" ctags-web /bin/bash

If you get a # then you are ready to go!

Start mongodb with the command:

bash scripts/start_mongo.sh

TODO: put the script to run as ENTRYPOINT

now you have a mongodb up and running. You can connect with it, giving the ip (172.17.0.2)
