I’ve just seen a Twitter post by Russ Cox which said, in order to install a trial version of Go generics, all one had to do was to run…
go install golang.org/dl/gotip@latest
gotip download
the first line seems to run okay, but the gotip download line fails with a command not found: gotip.
Does anyone have a working guide to how to get gotip running?
Hi @carlca,
Type “go env GOBIN” in your terminal. The output is the path where go install installs the compiled binary. If the output is empty, type “go env GOPATH” and add /bin - this is the default install path when GOBIN is not set.
Now verify if that path is part of your $PATH variable. Chances are it’s not, and that’s probably why your shell cannot find the command.
Thanks! That sorted it.
