The process of creating executables for many platforms can be a little tedious, so I suggest to use a script:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
package=$1
if [[ -z "$package" ]]; then
echo "usage: $0 <package-name>"
exit 1
fi
package_name=$package
#the full list of the platforms: https://golang.org/doc/install/source#environment
platforms=(
"darwin/386"
"dragonfly/amd64"
"freebsd/386"
"freebsd/amd64"
"freebsd/arm"
"linux/386"
"linux/amd64"
"linux/arm"
"linux/arm64"
"netbsd/386"
"netbsd/amd64"
"netbsd/arm"
"openbsd/386"
"openbsd/amd64"
"openbsd/arm"
"plan9/386"
"plan9/amd64"
"solaris/amd64"
"windows/amd64"
"windows/386" )
for platform in "${platforms[@]}"
do
platform_split=(${platform//\// })
GOOS=${platform_split[0]}
GOARCH=${platform_split[1]}
output_name=$package_name'-'$GOOS'-'$GOARCH
if [ $GOOS = "windows" ]; then
output_name+='.exe'
fi
env GOOS=$GOOS GOARCH=$GOARCH go build -o $output_name $package
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
echo 'An error has occurred! Aborting the script execution...'
exit 1
fi
done
I checked this script on OSX only
