gotify
Create sample config.yml during first start
During first start the directorys "images" and "plugins" and the db are created, but no default config.yml file.
images/
plugins/
gotify.db
It yould be very helpful (not onyl for beginners) to create a sample/default config.yml in the same directory where the binary is.
But we would have no idea on whether you want your config file to be placed in working dir or /etc/gotify/, also I cannot predict whether you might want to use environment variables for configuration.
But I think we can include a default config in the release package, so when you decompress the archive the config file is extracted as well.
I propose to create it in the same directory where the gotify "data/" folder which its subfolders is created. So all relevant folders, datas and configs are in the same place.
(When you create an official *.deb file then you can place the config file in "/etc/gotify".)
Having a sample config file in the release package would be a "quick win". Good idea.
I still prefer my solution. The data directory does not necessarily exist: current references to that directory are only in the default configuration and user might want to override that.
I agree with @eternal-flame-AD, lets include a default-config.yml in the zip.
