Installation

First, install go using your package manager.

Secondly, you need to set a $GOPATH. I suggest using ~/.go. Do this by adding

set -x GOPATH $HOME/.go/
set -gx PATH  $HOME/.go/bin/ $PATH

to your ~/.config/config.fish or equivilant to your shell rc file.

This also adds the ~/.go/bin/ folder to your $PATH which is useful for some.

After that, the package is installable using the go get github.com/oniichaNj/rssbot command. This will download the sources into the workspace at ~/.go/src/github.com/oniichaNj/rssbot directory.

In this directory, go build will create a binary called rssbot. This is the executable for the bot.

If you wish to add this to your $PATH, run go install, which moves it into ~/.go/bin/.

Bare in mind rssbot uses a relative path for config.json, just move a copy into wherever.
