I'm running Ubuntu 16.04 and I installed the golang package. When I use the instructions in the README I get

$ go get github.com/ChrisRx/dungeonfs...        
package github.com/ChrisRx/dungeonfs...: cannot expand ... in "github.com/ChrisRx/dungeonfs..."

Am I missing a required package?

ChrisRx commented 7 years ago

Hmmm, try go get github.com/ChrisRx/dungeonfs/... instead. It looks like it is failing when the directory doesn't already exist with the other command.

Here's the instructions I needed to get it installed.

sudo apt install golang
sudo su
export GOPATH="/usr/share/go/"
go get -u github.com/ChrisRx/dungeonfs...

did you try go get github.com/ChrisRx/dungeonfs/...? I believe that would have fixed your issue.

maxolasersquad commented 7 years ago

Yes. It gave me permission errors trying to create directories under /usr/share/go

ChrisRx commented 7 years ago

Ok good that means that it would have indeed fixed your issue. You ran into those errors because your Go environment was setup incorrectly. With all version of Go before 1.7 you must set your GOPATH and have it set to something that your user has the permissions to run. By setting your GOPATH it resolved your environment issue.
