GolangCI is a powerful and fast linter for Go that can outperform other popular tools like Gometalinter or Sonarlint. In this tutorial, we will explain the step-by-step process to install GolangCI on NetBSD.
If you haven't installed Go on your NetBSD system yet, you can easily do so by running the following command:
pkgin install go
You can download the latest version of the GolangCI package from its website https://golangci.com/. In this tutorial, we will be using version 1.42.0. To download the package, run the following command:
wget https://github.com/golangci/golangci-lint/releases/download/v1.42.0/golangci-lint-1.42.0-linux-amd64.tar.gz
Now that you have downloaded the GolangCI package, you need to extract its contents. Use the following command to extract the package:
tar xvf golangci-lint-1.42.0-linux-amd64.tar.gz
This will create a directory called golangci-lint-1.42.0-linux-amd64.
Now that you have extracted the GolangCI package, you need to move its executable file to the /usr/local/bin directory. Use the following command to move the file:
sudo mv golangci-lint-1.42.0-linux-amd64/golangci-lint /usr/local/bin/
To verify that the installation was successful, you can run the following command:
golangci-lint --version
This will display the version of GolangCI that you have installed on your system.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed GolangCI on your NetBSD system. You can now use this powerful linter to ensure the quality of your Go code.
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!
