Bee is a command-line tool facilitating development of Beego-based application.
- Go version >= 1.12.
To install bee
use the go get
command:
go get github.com/beego/bee
Then you can add bee
binary to PATH environment variable in your ~/.bashrc
or ~/.bash_profile
file:
export PATH=$PATH:<your_main_gopath>/bin
If you already have
bee
installed, updatingbee
is simple:
go get -u github.com/beego/bee
Bee provides a variety of commands which can be helpful at various stages of development. The top level commands include:
version Prints the current Bee version
migrate Runs database migrations
api Creates a Beego API application
bale Transforms non-Go files to Go source files
fix Fixes your application by making it compatible with newer versions of Beego
dlv Start a debugging session using Delve
dockerize Generates a Dockerfile for your Beego application
generate Source code generator
hprose Creates an RPC application based on Hprose and Beego frameworks
new Creates a Beego application
pack Compresses a Beego application into a single file
rs Run customized scripts
run Run the application by starting a local development server
To display the current version of bee
, beego
and go
installed on your machine:
$ bee version

Bee also helps you dockerize your Beego application by generating a Dockerfile.
For example, to generate a Dockerfile with Go version 1.6.4
and exposing port 9000
:
$ bee dockerize -image="library/golang:1.6.4" -expose=9000

For more information on the usage, run bee help dlv
.
Because you'll likely type these generator commands over and over, it makes sense to create aliases:
# Generator Stuff
alias g:a="bee generate appcode"
alias g:m="bee generate model"
alias g:c="bee generate controller"
alias g:v="bee generate view"
alias g:mi="bee generate migration"
These can be stored , for example, in your ~/.bash_profile
or ~/.bashrc
files.
To print more information on the usage of a particular command, use bee help <command>
.
For instance, to get more information about the run
command:
$ bee help run
USAGE
bee run [appname] [watchall] [-main=*.go] [-downdoc=true] [-gendoc=true] [-vendor=true] [-e=folderToExclude] [-tags=goBuildTags] [-runmode=BEEGO_RUNMODE]
OPTIONS
-downdoc
Enable auto-download of the swagger file if it does not exist.
-e=[]
List of paths to exclude.
-gendoc
Enable auto-generate the docs.
-main=[]
Specify main go files.
-runmode
Set the Beego run mode.
-tags
Set the build tags. See: https://golang.org/pkg/go/build/
-vendor=false
Enable watch vendor folder.
DESCRIPTION
Run command will supervise the filesystem of the application for any changes, and recompile/restart it.
Bug reports, feature requests and pull requests are always welcome.
We work on two branches: master
for stable, released code and develop
, a development branch.
It might be important to distinguish them when you are reading the commit history searching for a feature or a bugfix,
or when you are unsure of where to base your work from when contributing.
Please submit an issue on GitHub and we will follow up. Even better, we would appreciate a Pull Request with a fix for it!
- If the bug was found in a release, it is best to base your work on
master
and submit your PR against it. - If the bug was found on
develop
(the development branch), base your work ondevelop
and submit your PR against it.
Please follow the Pull Request Guidelines.
Feel free to request a feature by submitting an issue on GitHub and open the discussion.
If you'd like to implement a new feature, please consider opening an issue first to talk about it. It may be that somebody is already working on it, or that there are particular issues that you should be aware of before implementing the change. If you are about to open a Pull Request, please make sure to follow the submissions guidelines.
Before you submit an issue, search the archive, maybe you will find that a similar one already exists.
If you are submitting an issue for a bug, please include the following:
- An overview of the issue
- Your use case (why is this a bug for you?)
- The version of
bee
you are running (include the output ofbee version
) - Steps to reproduce the issue
- Eventually, logs from your application.
- Ideally, a suggested fix
The more information you give us, the more able to help we will be!
- First of all, make sure to base your work on the
develop
branch (the development branch):
# a bugfix branch for develop would be prefixed by fix/
# a bugfix branch for master would be prefixed by hotfix/
$ git checkout -b feature/my-feature develop
-
Please create commits containing related changes. For example, two different bugfixes should produce two separate commits. A feature should be made of commits splitted by logical chunks (no half-done changes). Use your best judgement as to how many commits your changes require.
-
Write insightful and descriptive commit messages. It lets us and future contributors quickly understand your changes without having to read your changes. Please provide a summary in the first line (50-72 characters) and eventually, go to greater lengths in your message's body. A good example can be found in Angular commit message format.
-
Please include the appropriate test cases for your patch.
-
Make sure all tests pass before submitting your changes.
-
Rebase your commits. It may be that new commits have been introduced on
develop
. Rebasing will update your branch with the most recent code and make your changes easier to review:$ git fetch $ git rebase origin/develop
-
Push your changes:
$ git push origin -u feature/my-feature
-
Open a pull request against the
develop
branch. -
If we suggest changes:
-
Please make the required updates (after discussion if any)
-
Only create new commits if it makes sense. Generally, you will want to amend your latest commit or rebase your branch after the new changes:
$ git rebase -i develop # choose which commits to edit and perform the updates
-
Re-run the tests
-
Force push to your branch:
$ git push origin feature/my-feature -f
-
