halp is a simple cli tool written in Go for small helper functions.

To install/update halp on an OSX build, you can do so using Homebrew. If you have not already, add the halp tap to your brew taps:

brew tap josh5276/halp [email protected]:josh5276/halp

Once tapped, you can install/upgrade/remove halp using the regular brew methods

brew update && brew install halp

brew update && brew upgrade halp

brew uninstall halp

• Run all tests
  • make tests
• Run linting
  • make lint

The release for halp includes a few things:

1. Building of the Go binary
2. Debian build for Linux installations
3. Brew build for OSX installations (this includes the formula.rb generation)
4. Archive build of tar.gz files
5. Drafting of a new release in github.

Once you have completed the prereqs, you should be able to draft a new release using make:

• make release
  Note: this requires a clean git status and a new git tag. If you are wanting to test this release, run make testrelease

Halp uses a go-key library that has a dependency on an Go Sqlite library. Sqlite requires C and has a dependency on the GCC build, which is not compatible.

To get around this, you can manually install the linux gcc libraries by running

brew install FiloSottile/musl-cross/musl-cross

• NOTE: the goreleaser file already contains the arguments to reference the linux-gcc builds.

See: mattn/go-sqlite3#384 for more information.
