Other Architecture Builds
Closed this issue · 3 comments
Maybe you could add some info to the README on how to compile it for other targets as well.
Something like:
"""
To compile for other architectures or OSs just add the desired line to the build target.
E.g. for linux/arm64:
CGO_ENABLED=0 GOARCH=arm64 GOOS=linux go build -ldflags="$(LDFLAGS) -s -w" -o bin/reverse-ssh-arm64 .
A list of available targets can be obtained via go tool dist list.
"""
Or even allow specific target selection via environment variables or build targets.
Great idea!
I went ahead with 1f0f9a9 and added a plain build target that can be used to override GOOS and GOARCH as needed.
Implementing it this way felt a little more "clean" than adding even more targets for other operating systems or architectures.
I hope this works for you!
Nice, good solution!
There is just one thing slightly sub-optimal with this way - the resulting binary is always called reverse-ssh, with all the others having an explicit postfix, identifying its target.
As long as you know what you're doing this should be fine though.
I agree, adding a matching suffix would be a nice touch.
Nonetheless, I would consider cross-compiling somewhat advanced and thus expect any user doing it to figure that the plain one is the correct binary.
