Ponzu – An open-source HTTP server framework and CMS in Go

Does look pretty slick, but I imagine the flat nature of the content items will be limiting. In the example, song has an artist. But artist is a string vs a related content item.

I can't tell if that's an MVP type decision and will change later, or a design decision that won't change in the future.

Hi - you can make a relationship using the built in addon package, github.com/bosssauce/reference

The reference is stored as a string (or []string if you opt for a reference.SelectRepeater input func), but the value stored as a reference is actually a URL path to the content as it would be accessed via the Content API. This becomes very powerful when you enable HTTP/2 Server Push, and declare the referenced content to be pushed when it's parent content is requested.

The underlying data looks like this:

Song

id: 1

title: "Take Me Home, Country Roads"

artist: "/api/content?type=Artist&id=2"

If you enable H2 Server Push by implementing the Pushable interface (add a Push method that returns a []string of the JSON field names to push), the server will know to make a response for the referenced Artist field and push it down to the client when the parent Song is requested.

Ahh, okay. That seems straightforward. Might be good to reference that in the main documentation.

Definitely will -- thank you for taking the time to read through.. it's hard for me to know where the docs are too light sometimes. (besides generally everywhere)

Is it flat like wikipedia or flat like S3?

Not sure. I don't see any support for item relationships. It could just be a lack of documentation though.
