Installation

Short version

If you already have Go installed and configured:

go get github.com/thefryscorer/schemer2

Less Short Version

This method doesn't require a GOPATH, but it is recommended that you configure one.

  • Install Go
  • Clone this repository
  • Run 'go build' inside directory with main.go file to build binary
  • Run newly created binary from the command line

Long Version

Installing and configuring Go

To build this program, you will need to have Go installed and properly configured. After installing the Go package, you will need to configure a GOPATH. This is a directory in which Go will keep its programs and source files. I recommend making the GOPATH directory in your home folder. If your GOPATH is in your root directory a kitten will die.

mkdir ~/Go

You will also need to set the GOPATH variable so that Go knows where to put things. You can do this by running:

export GOPATH=$HOME/Go

NOTE: You don't need to (and shouldn't) set the $GOROOT variable. This is handled for you and you shouldn't mess with it.

Installing schemer

You should now be able to install schemer using the command:

go get github.com/thefryscorer/schemer2

And it will be built in your GOPATH directory, in a subdirectory named 'bin'. To run it, you can either add $GOPATH/bin to your system path and run it as you would any other command. Or cd into the bin directory and run it with:

./schemer2
