Golang Vagrant Environment
Golang has a slightly more complex setup procedure compared to other languages as it uses a workspace concept. Getting the environment wrong means many of the go commands fail with some what confusing errors.
This repo aims to alleviate the problems starting a golang project by providing a vagrant environment and puppet script that will setup and prepare all the required prerequisites.
Requirements
In order to use this repository you need the following:
Using vagrant-golang
This repo was developed to be copied and re-used as needed in other projects. It is only meant to make per project golang environments easier to manage. I have tried other golang modules for puppet and they didn't work as expected.
Clone or copy the repo and do the following:
$ cd /path/to/repo
$ vagrant up
$ vagrant ssh
# ...
$ go version
$ go install hello
$ hello
# hello, world
Choosing golang version
This repo is hardcoded to use 1.9 although this can easily be changed after
cloning. If you want to use another version simply set the $version parameter
when calling the class. The version string is taken from the
golang downloads list. Once changed you can either call
vagrant up if you haven't already setup the vagrant box or vagrant provision
if the machine is already up.
