Go Releaser

version.go - Example of a version command

Uploading Binaries Only

You can use the binary format in the builds section.

One MacOS when you download the binary you need to do two things to make it executable

  • chmod +x ${BINARY}

  • Run the following command or open it in terminal from finder to remove the macos permission issue

    xattr -d com.apple.quarantine ${BINARY}

  • If finder isn’t showing the terminal application as an option to open it, make sure the drop down says “show all applications” not just recommended applications.

Testing GHA Workflows

  • You can create a release from the branch using the CLI e.g.
gh release create v0.0.1-pre1 -p --target=jlewi/kubedr --title="goreleaser test" --notes="goreleaser test"

Testing LDFlags in the goreleaser config

  1. Run a snapshot build goreleaser release –snapshot –clean

  2. Check the version on the newly built binary ./dist/foyle_darwin_arm64/foyle version

    It should be something like foyle 0.0.1-next, commit 416e3d5610d5bc21f9dcd82bd1f17c58a13457ca, built at 2024-04-06T23:39:07Z by goreleaser
