Installation with "go get" does not handle version

Pharb commented 3 years ago

Summary

"go get" installation does not handle version and produces binary incompatible with gopassbridge (version mismatch).

Steps To Reproduce

go get github.com/gopasspw/gopass-jsonapi

The first problem is this error complaining about uninitialized gopass store. If possible it shouldn't be necessary to have an initialized store to run "help", "version" or "configure".

Failed to initialize gopass API: store not initialized. run gopass init first

Second error only happens when using "go get" for to compile the binary:

$ ./gopass-jsonapi --version Incorrect Usage. flag provided but not defined: -version

Expected behavior

Following command completes successfully and outputs the latest released version of gopass-jsonapi:

docker run --rm golang bash -c 'go get github.com/gopasspw/gopass-jsonapi && ./bin/gopass-jsonapi --version'

Environment

OS: checked with Docker on Mac, probably independent of OS
OS version: Linux ef82b619761e 4.19.121-linuxkit #1 SMP Tue Dec 1 17:50:32 UTC 2020 x86_64 GNU/Linux
gopass-jsonapi Version: gopass-jsonapi version 1.11.1
Installation method: compiled from source

gopass itself updates the file version.go on every release. This is then checked in to git and available when fetching with go get.

I've update the post-release helper in gopasspw/gopass to also write a version.go into the integrations. This should be automatically fixed with the next release.
