Installation error - make command

Closed this issue · 3 comments

Hello,
I am trying to install openhue-cli to try and control a standard Phillips Hue bridge with more control than is given in the standard app. I am currently trying to install on a Kali Linux machine and am running into the following error after following the tutorial:
image
the [Makefile:30: build] Error 127 output was not initally helpful for troubleshooting. Additionally, based on what the help command is giving me, I should expect an executable in the ./dist folder, but that's not in the current directory. Is there anything that I missed in downloading that would alleviate the issue? Is there something else that I'm missing in the instructions? Any guidance would be helpful.

Hi @DomTranch, could you please verify if you've installed GoReleaser?


GoReleaser is indeed marked as optional in the Prerequisites section, I should perhaps mark it as required.

Yes, that indeed fixed it. Thank you! For anyone else, these are the specific lines that I ran (and apologies for any command line issues, I can't GitHub well):

echo 'deb [trusted=yes] https://repo.goreleaser.com/apt/ /' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/goreleaser.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install goreleaser

After that,

make build

ran without error. Definitely recommend GoReleaser as a required tool.

Thanks @DomTranch for confirming that it is now working well.

Documentation has been fixed as part of #58, and I also introduced an additional check in the Makefile to verify that GoReleaser in available before running the make build command.
