The Mongoose OS command line tool

Installing on Windows

Installing on Ubuntu Linux

Use PPA:

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mongoose-os/mos
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install mos

Note: to use the very latest version instead of the released one, the last command should be sudo apt-get install mos-latest

Installing on Arch Linux

Use PKGBUILD:

$ git clone https://github.com/cesanta/mos-tool
$ cd mos-tool/mos/archlinux_pkgbuild/mos-release
$ makepkg
$ pacman -U ./mos-*.tar.xz

Note: to use the very latest version from the git repo, instead of the released one, invoke makepkg from mos-tool/mos/archlinux_pkgbuild/mos-latest.

Installing Mac OS

Use homebrew:

$ brew tap cesanta/mos
$ brew install mos

Building manually

Minimal required Go version is 1.8.

Go and other required tools can be installed on Ubuntu 16.10 as follows:

sudo apt install golang-go build-essential python python-git libftdi-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev

Make sure you have GOPATH set, and PATH should contain $GOPATH/bin. It can be done by adding this to your ~/.bashrc:

export GOPATH="$HOME/go"
export PATH="$PATH:$GOPATH/bin"

Install govendor:

go get github.com/kardianos/govendor

Now clone the mos-tool repository into the proper location and cd to it

git clone https://github.com/cesanta/mos-tool $GOPATH/src/cesanta.com
cd $GOPATH/src/cesanta.com

Fetch all vendored packages and save them under the vendor dir:

$ govendor sync -v

Now, mos tool can be built:

make -C mos install

It will produce the binary $GOPATH/bin/mos.
