goup

goup is an elegant Go version manager.

Rust Licence Tag

There are a bunch of solutions to install Go or manage Go versions outside of a package manager: golang/dl, getgo, gvm, goenv, to name a few.

goup is an attempt to fulfill the above features and is heavily inspired by Rustup, golang/dl, goup and getgo.

Features

Installation

One-liner

cargo install goup-rs --git https://github.com/thinkgos/goup-rs

or

cargo install goup-rs

Manual

If you want to install manually, there are the steps:

  • Download the latest goup from https://github.com/thinkgos/goup-rs/releases
  • Drop the goup executable to your PATH and make it executable: mv GOUP_BIN /usr/local/bin/goup && chmod +x /usr/local/bin/goup
  • Add the Go bin directory to your shell startup script: echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.goup/current/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc

Quick Start
