gopm - Go Package Manager

Gopm(Go Package Manager) is a Go package manage tool for search, install, update and share packages in Go.

Current Version: v0.5.1

Requirement

• Go Development Environment >= 1.1.
• Command ln -s support on Mac OS and Unix-like systems.
• Command mklink -j support on Windows( Windows Vista and later ).

Installation

Because we do NOT offer binaries for now, so before you install the gopm, you should have already installed Go Development Environment with version 1.1 and later.

go get github.com/gpmgo/gopm

The executable will be produced under $GOPATH/bin in your file system; for global use purpose, we recommand you to add this path into your PATH environment variable.

Features

• No requirement for installing any version control system tool like git, svn or hg in order to download packages(although you have to install git for installing gopm though go get for now).
• Download, install or build your packages with specific revisions.
• When build program with gopm build or gopm install, everything just happen in its own GOPATH and do not bother anything you've done.

• Put your Go project on anywhere you want.
