Go Foundation Series: 2. Environment construction

I will explain the construction under Linux, Windows and Mac systems one by one, including the configuration of the editor.

What to prepare?

  1. Go installation package: Win Go installation package,Linux Go package (binary),Mac Go package

  2. Git environment, Go downloads dependent packages with the help of GIT tools, which will not be explained here.

Test for installation

If the version command is output normally, it indicates that it has been installed.

go version

### output

go version go1.16.4 windows/amd64

Windows

  1. After obtaining the installation package, you can directly go to the next fool installation and remember your installation location.

  1. To configure environment variables, some unnecessary ones are not set, such as GOBIN.

  • GO111MODULE: on, open the gomod management pack

  • GOPROXY: https://goproxy.cn , set up the agent to speed up the download of dependent packages

  • GOPATH: C:\workspace\go (self defined), working directory

  • PATH: add C:\Program Files\Go\bin and C:\workspace\go\bin

  1. Run the Go environment command
go env

### Output, part of the content is omitted, and only the key points are selected

set GO111MODULE=on

...

set GOPATH=C:\workspace\go

...

set GOPROXY=https://goproxy.cn

...

The Windows environment will be configured. It's simple. Go down and directly look down at the editor's configuration.

Mac

  1. After downloading the installation package in the Mac environment, install it directly

  1. Environment configuration (explained in Windows)
### gomod, managing third-party packages

echo 'export GO111MODULE=on' >> ~/.bash_profile

### Agent, accelerate dependent package download

echo 'export GOPROXY=https://goproxy.cn' >> ~/.bash_profile

### Working directory, customizing

echo 'export GOPATH=/Users/miaogaolin/workspace/go' >> ~/.bash_profile

### Join PATH

echo 'echo PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin' >> ~/.bash_profile

### Environment variable validation

source ~/.bash_profile

After installing the Mac environment, turn down the editor installation.

Linux

Choosing the installation package I provided above is a common way under Linux. Is there any other simpler way? Answer: Yes.

Ubuntu

sudo apt-get golang-go

Centos

sudo yum install go -y

recommend

  1. Download installation package
wget https://studygolang.com/dl/golang/go1.16.4.linux-amd64.tar.gz
  1. decompression
tar -xvf go1.16.4.linux-amd64.tar.gz

The full directory path I extracted is / mnt/c/Users/owner/go, which can be moved to the location I want to place.

  1. Configure environment variables
### GOROOT, installation path configuration

echo 'export GOROOT=/mnt/c/Users/owner/go' >> ~/.bash_profile

### gomod, managing third-party packages

echo 'export GO111MODULE=on' >> ~/.bash_profile

### Agent, accelerate dependent package download

echo 'export GOPROXY=https://goproxy.cn' >> ~/.bash_profile

### Working directory, customizing

echo 'export GOPATH=/Users/miaogaolin/workspace/go' >> ~/.bash_profile

### Join PATH

echo 'export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin:$GOPATH/bin' >> ~/.bash_profile

### Environment variable validation

source ~/.bash_profile

editor

Here I recommend Golan. Download the link: https://www.jetbrains.com/go/download.

The installation process will not be described, but directly start from the configuration. If you want to crack the little partner, you can ask me quietly.

  1. Open the project directory, file > Settings > project structure. If it is not set, click + Add Content Root to set it.

  1. Check GOROOT, file > Settings > Go > GOROOT, if not, as shown in the figure. Click and select Local to load the Go directory you installed.

  1. i check GOPATH, file > Settings > go > GOPATH. If there is no problem when configuring environment variables, the path of GOPATH will be displayed automatically.

  1. Configure two tools
  • goimports, which automatically imports the third-party package when writing code. It needs to be downloaded. After running the following command, a binary file will be generated in $GOPATH/bin.
go get [golang.org/x/tools/cmd/goimports](http://golang.org/x/tools/cmd/goimports)
  • gofmt, automatic formatting, self-contained, no need to download

Next, configure the two tools in Golan, open file > Settings > Tools > file watchers, and click the plus sign as shown in the figure to import.

  1. After configuration, let's have a "Hello World" code experience. Let's see how the directory is built.

  • Bin: automatically generated. When you run the go get command above, a bin directory is automatically generated to place the runnable binary files.

  • pkg: automatically generated. The generated third-party package will be automatically placed in this directory.

  • src: manually create a new directory. gobasic is the directory where I write code. You can also create other directories under src.

The code of hellworld.go file is as follows:

// Package name of the entry file

package main

// Reference package

import "fmt"

// Entry function

func main() {

    // console output 

   fmt.Println("Hello World!")

}

The console runs the following commands:

### Initialize gomod 

go mod init

### function

go run hellworld.go

### output

Hello World!
