Im even willing to work on making a PKGBUILD (once i learn how they work) to download the latest release they have from github and install it
Hi,
If you want to create a caddy2-bin
aur package, please feel free to do so.
My understanding is that -git
packages are packages that both pull their sources from a git repo and automatically get the latest commit without PKGBUILD modification needed. This package (caddy2
) pins the source repository to stable release tags which excludes it from this definition.
Furthermore, the official caddy
package's PKGBUILD on next
does work that way, pulling caddy's git repo and pinning to stable release tags.
If the official caddy
package ever chose to to distribute official binaries instead of a custom compiled one, the caddy2
aur package would still have to work that way because distributing binaries on an aur package means it has to be suffixed with -bin
(per the AUR submission guidelines wiki page).
I would be happy to help you with your compilation errors, however please provide a full log of the build without any modification of the PKGBUILD
. Please also note that caddy 2.1.2 (latest stable version) doesn't build with go 1.15 (current official arch go
package version) so please stay with go 1.14 for now.
I'm closing this issue, but feel free to reply and I'll reopen it.

Okay mini rant, sorry if this part is agressive Please for the love of god provide a
-bin
version of this, not everyone has time to spend compiling and downloading toolchains just to run a simple webserver, i cant even install it because of a error that i have no clue what the hell it means, so please. provide a binary repo or rename this one to have-git
on the aur, having to run caddy through docker is not exactly the preferred way of doing things with caddyserver,
