Fist of all instal go tools 'https://golang.org/doc/install#install'
create a directory of your wish, for example Users/john/go
inside this directory create three folders:
- src (source code, all .go files)
- bin (compiled binary files)
- pkg (packages objects, all .a files) clone this project inside src directory
it is important to set 3 environment variables in your .bashrc or .zshrc
export GOPATH=/Users/john/go
export GOBIN=$GOPATH/bin
export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin
you can check that the environment variables are set by command go env GOPATH
any time you import a package as import "foo/bar" it would be searched in:
- $GOROOT (env var already set in installation)
- $GOPATH
with the command 'go install' the program would be compiled and the binary would be save in $GOBIN path
as GOPATH/bin is added to PATH list variable you can execute the program wherever you want as bcexplore-struct-sfr
