Running GPTS directly from executables¶
Using prebuilt binaries¶
GPTS binaries can be downloaded directly from releases page of project's repository.
Manually building binaries¶
Prerequisites
In order to proceed, you must prepare following prerequisites:
- Go language, version 1.19 or later.
Cloning the repository¶
First thing you have to do in order to compile application on your own is cloning the project's repository:
git clone https://github.com/Icikowski/GPTS.git
git clone git@github.com:Icikowski/GPTS.git
Downloading dependencies¶
After cloning the source files, you should download all of the project's dependencies. You can do it by executing following command inside application subdirectory of GPTS repository:
go get ./...
Example command execution & output
go get ./...
go: downloading github.com/rs/zerolog v1.25.0
go: downloading github.com/heptiolabs/healthcheck v0.0.0-20180807145615-6ff867650f40
go: downloading github.com/gorilla/mux v1.8.0
go: downloading gopkg.in/yaml.v2 v2.4.0
go: downloading github.com/prometheus/client_golang v1.11.0
go: downloading golang.org/x/sys v0.0.0-20210910150752-751e447fb3d0
go: downloading github.com/prometheus/client_model v0.2.0
go: downloading github.com/prometheus/common v0.30.0
go: downloading github.com/golang/protobuf v1.5.2
go: downloading github.com/prometheus/procfs v0.7.3
go: downloading github.com/cespare/xxhash/v2 v2.1.2
go: downloading github.com/beorn7/perks v1.0.1
go: downloading google.golang.org/protobuf v1.27.1
go: downloading github.com/matttproud/golang_protobuf_extensions v1.0.1
Building binary¶
The last step is to build binary file. It is done by executing go build command:
go build .
Alternatively, you can use Makefile target:
make build
By default, compiled binary will be named gpts (or gpts.exe on Windows), but you can change it, as well as target OS and architecture, accordingly to docs available after executing command:
go help build
