Make available as static binary

Open yeroc opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Is it possible to make protoscope available as a binary for the common platforms (at least Linux)? For anyone not using go as their language it's rather unfriendly to require the whole language toolchain etc. to install.

Thanks!

not really. if you replaced "go" with some old crappy language sure, but the download is only 68 MB:

> curl -I https://dl.google.com/go/go1.22.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz
HTTP/2 200
content-length: 68958123

and building is literally go build, thats it. no other downloads, no other commands, nothing.
