			# Flamenco Manager

			This is the Flamenco Manager implementation in Go.

			## Starting development

			`$FM` denotes the directory containing a checkout of Flamenco Manager, that is, the
			absolute path of this `flamenco-manager-go` directory.

			0. Install Go 1.7 or newer
			1. `export GOPATH=$FM`
			2. `cd $FM/src/flamenco-manager`
			3. Download all dependencies with `go get`
			4. Download Flamenco test dependencies with `go get -t ./flamenco`
			5. Run the unittests with `go test ./flamenco`
			6. Build your first Flamenco Manager with `go build`; this will create an executable
			`flamenco-manager` in `$FM/src/flamenco-manager`


			## Known issues & limitations

			1. The downloading of tasks doesn't consider job types. This means that workers can be starved
			waiting for tasks, when there are 1000nds of tasks and workers of type X and only a relatively
			low number of workers and tasks of type Y.


			## TO DO

			In no particular order:

			- Way for Flamenco Server to get an overview of Workers, and set their status.
			- Update worker address upon communication (currently only stored when registering)
			- the Task struct in documents.go should be synced with the Eve schema.
