Installation recommendation #15

I tried

go get github.com/globalsign/est
go install github.com/globalsign/est/cmd/estserver
go install github.com/globalsign/est/cmd/estclient

but it gave me these errors:

go install github.com/globalsign/est/cmd/estserver
    go/src/github.com/globalsign/est/internal/mockca/ca.go:39:2: cannot find package "github.com/globalsign/pemfile" in any of:
        /usr/lib/go-1.14/src/github.com/globalsign/pemfile (from $GOROOT)
        /root/go/src/github.com/globalsign/pemfile (from $GOPATH)
go install github.com/globalsign/est/cmd/estclient
cannot find module providing package github.com/globalsign/est/cmd/estclient: working directory is not part of a module

Instead, I just used this for installation:

go get -u github.com/globalsign/est/cmd/estserver
~/go/bin/estserver -version
go get -u github.com/globalsign/est/cmd/estclient
~/go/bin/estclient version

It also took a minute to figure out the help command for the server and client are different:

estserver -help
estclient help

It also took a minute to figure out the help command for the server and client are different:

estserver -help
estclient help

This difference is deliberate, since the client has a command subsystem and the server does not.

estclient -help will give a message showing the correct way to invoke the help system. But estserver help will ignore the argument and start the server. For consistency, this should also show a help message. Separate ticket raised.
