Improvements on precompiled binaries

shawark commented 3 years ago

Had a working session with a customer which did not progress far since cannot find a suitable binary that could work for them. This is a blocker as the customer may not have permission or have difficulties to build themselves (thus build task eventually fall onto us)

Things as following

All precompiled binaries are the same (which is for mac)

MD5 (agent_darwin_amd64) = 6d070eb3a0de36f7c366cc9bf5b76bb9
MD5 (agent_linux_amd64) = 6d070eb3a0de36f7c366cc9bf5b76bb9
MD5 (agent_windows_amd64) = 6d070eb3a0de36f7c366cc9bf5b76bb9

not sure if linux version works the same for Debian-like or RH-like, hence if we need to provide more precompiled distributions
May need to set up jenkins or automated compile mechanism
when I try to build, it requires golang version 1.13 that does not work on the latest version

[root@ad4a569153ef agent]# go build
go: github.com/machinebox/progress@v0.1.0: reading github.com/machinebox/progress/go.mod at revision v0.1.0: unknown revision v0.1.0

Upload windows and centos6 build just in case is useful agent_windows.zip agent_centos6.tar.gz

fwiw I had no issues building with 1.15.5 on windows

release v0.1.0 has a proper windows binary, but it won't run unless you rename it to include a .exe file extension

instaclustr / supportCenter
