• bluemonday for HTML sanitizing
• bleve for searching within the documents
• Bolt for document storage
• Bootstrap basic UI design

• Bootstrap Tags Input for tag input :-P
• typeahead.js also for tag input

Compile

To compile you could simply use go build or if you want some extra analyzers for the search engine build with go build -tags "icu libstemmer" For more information about additional search engine features see bleve...

Executing

Copy the compiled executable in the same directory as the static and the templates directory. If you want you can create a config.json

{
    "HttpAddr": ":12345",               // port / address for the http server
    "DataDir": "/var/knowledgedb/data", // directory to store the database and fulltext-search-index
    "DefaultAnalyzer": "standard"       // Textanalyzer for the bleve search.
}
