gopack

Gopack is a software dependency management tool for Go.

Gopack keeps package's dependency information to build the GOPATH variable. It also keeps remote locations where to publish and get packages.

It can then deliver:

Building commands
- compile. Single platform or cross compile
- test. Run them on the go or cross compile them for later tests.
Managing commands
- list all dependencies (recursively)
- find and list missing imports, and fix them
- search for packages by name ( find the right version)
Sharing commands
- download packages from remote locations
- publish packages and binaries to remote locations
- search packages or imports in remote locations

Getting Started

This section is still under development, it is kind of sparse (sorry)

installing it

Very soon, gopack will be available for direct download in every supported platform. Meanwhile, you still need to build it.

Linux

 
git clone https://github.com/gopack/gpk.git
cd gpk/
GOPATH=`pwd` go install ./src/...
sudo cp ./bin/gpk /usr/bin/gpk

Now you should get something like

$>gpk help

Hello World

The purpose is to show the smallest possible Helloworld project. Create the Workspace layout.

$> mkdir test
$> cd test
$> gpk init -c -n mypath/test -l ASF
    new name:mypath/test
    new license:"Apache License 2.0"

Creates the workspace, and the directory layout. Its time to populate it with the helloworld.go file

$> vi src/mypath/test/helloworld.go

Edit the helloworld.go file and make it:

package main
import "fmt"
func main() {
    fmt.Println("Hello, World")
}

Then Compile, and run

$> gpk compile
$> ./bin/test
