Installation

Make sure to do gowall -v and compare it against the release page version, since the docs only show the commands/flags and capabilities of the latest released version. You can find the currently released version here

Grab the binary from the release section (Stable Release)​

Head over to the release section

Choose the latest version of gowall. You should see a .tar.gz for your operating system and architecture. Simply Extract the binary inside and place it inside your $PATH

sudo cp gowall /usr/local/bin/

Otherwise you can also just build the project yourself check the section below

Build from source (Cutting Edge)​

🔨 Clone the repo, build the project and move it inside your $PATH

Linux & MacOS​

git clone https://github.com/Achno/gowall
cd gowall
go build -v
sudo cp gowall /usr/local/bin/
gowall

Windows (Or any OS if git cloning and go build did not work)​

For Windows we need to install zig & go to build it. I advise you to use a package manager like scoop to install it. Obviously you can just go the zig website and download the installer, it doesn't really matter, the zig binary needs to be in your $PATH.

scoop install main/zig # or just go to the website and download zig if you don't want to use a package manager
git clone https://github.com/Achno/gowall
cd gowall

export CGO_ENABLED=1 # if you are using powershell : $env:CGO_ENABLED=1
export CC="zig cc" # if you are using powershell : $env:CC="zig cc"
export CXX="zig c++" # if you are using powershell : $env:CXX="zig c++"

go clean -cache 
go build -v

# then simply add the binary to your PATH

Go install​

if you have $GOPATH setup correctly Eg. you have the following in your .zshrc / .bashrc

export GOPATH=$(go env GOPATH)
export GOBIN=$GOPATH/bin
export PATH=$PATH:$GOBIN

And simply use go install

go install github.com/Achno/gowall@latest
