GolangCI is a popular code analysis tool used for Go projects. It is widely used in the Go community and provides an easy way to detect code issues or vulnerabilities. In this tutorial, we will be covering the installation of GolangCI on Linux Mint.
The first step is to install Go on your system. To do this, open your terminal and type the following commands:
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install golang-go
The next step is to download and install GolangCI. You can do this by following the steps below:
Open your terminal and type the following command to download GolangCI:
$ curl -sfL https://install.goreleaser.com/github.com/golangci/golangci-lint.sh | sh -s v1.42.0
Once downloaded, move GolangCI to the system's executable path by running the following command:
$ sudo mv ./bin/golangci-lint /usr/local/bin/
To verify if the installation was successful, run the following command:
$ golangci-lint --version
This should display the GolangCI version that was installed.
In this tutorial, we have gone through the steps to install GolangCI on Linux Mint. Once the process is complete, GolangCI can help to identify potential issues with your Go code and help to ensure its quality.
