In this tutorial, you will learn how to install Gonic on Arch Linux.
Before installing Gonic, it is recommended you first update your system packages using the following command:
sudo pacman -Syu
Gonic requires some dependencies to be installed on your system to function properly.
To install these dependencies, run the following command:
sudo pacman -S git go
Next, you will need to clone the Gonic repository from Github.
To do that, run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/sentriz/gonic.git
This will download the Gonic source code into a new directory called "gonic" in your current location.
To build and install Gonic from the source code, you need to be in the "gonic" directory.
Navigate to it using:
cd gonic
Next, run the following commands to build and install Gonic:
go mod tidy
go build .
After the build is complete, install the executable using:
sudo cp ./gonic /usr/local/bin/
To verify that Gonic has been successfully installed on your system, run the following command:
gonic version
If everything has been installed correctly, you should see a message indicating the version of Gonic that is installed on your system.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Gonic on your Arch Linux system. You can now start using Gonic to build your web applications.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
