Install for go 1.18+

[Lehp]

Go dropped go get for cmd-tools.

executing go install github.com/githubnemo/COmpileDaemon/cmd does not work.

[ugurozsahin]

go install github.com/githubnemo/CompileDaemon@latest

this worked for me!

[Sebastian-Moctezuma]

When I execute the command it brings a lot of messages, and all of them contains "go:linkname must refer to declared function or variable"

[Lehp]

Well can you provide us with those messages? Maybe @latest is not the smartest. It was only to get the version which supports go 1.18 modules

This is what I get when I try to install it

With go 1.19, I'm also facing the above issue.

$ go install github.com/githubnemo/CompileDaemon@latest

Tried using absolute version instead of latest and got the same results. Does anyone know any workarounds for this?

[jodegaard-receptiviti]

I got things working with go 1.19.2 on os x 12.6 by running the following from within a go module:

go get -u github.com/githubnemo/CompileDaemon
go install github.com/githubnemo/CompileDaemon
go mod tidy

The trailing go mod tidy was to remove CompileDaemon entries from the go.mod dependencies.

I got things working with go 1.20 on an Apple Silicon device os x 13.1. Download the code, build it manually, make it executable and then move the binary to your local bin folder.

git clone github.com/githubnemo/CompileDaemon
cd CompileDaemon
go build -o CompileDaemon .
chmod +x CompileDaemon
sudo mv CompileDaemon /usr/local/bin

go install github.com/githubnemo/CompileDaemon@latest

this worked for me!

I did this and also restarted my system and it worked.
