I have a simple Go application, it has a few template files where I render some text. After I build my binary with Go build I try to run the file and I get the error:
panic: html/template: pattern matches no files:
public/*.html
I am using the Echo framework and have followed their steps on adding a render for templates.
Here is the code in my main.go file
// TemplateRenderer is a custom html/template renderer for Echo framework
type TemplateRenderer struct {
templates *template.Template
}
// Render renders a template document
func (t *TemplateRenderer) Render(w io.Writer, name string, data interface{}, c echo.Context) error {
return t.templates.ExecuteTemplate(w, name, data)
}
func main() {
// Create a new instance of Echo
e := echo.New()
e.Use(middleware.Logger())
e.Use(middleware.Recover())
renderer := &TemplateRenderer{
templates: template.Must(template.ParseGlob("public/*.html")),
}
e.Renderer = renderer
e.GET("/", func(context echo.Context) error {
return context.Render(http.StatusOK, "index.html", api.FetchCoinList())
})
}
Is there something I have to do to package my templates up in the binary? It works perfectly when I run go run main.go
