A quick and easy way to compile reproducible binaries with Golang.

For a full walkthrough on how to use this repo, check out the Hackernoon article. Otherwise, read below for a quick overview.

This repo contains a Dockerfile and a Makefile to build reproducible Go binaries across 30 different build combinations.

If you want to build a reproducible binary for a specific operating system/system architecture, first copy the Dockerfile into the root directory of your project. Then create a new Makefile in the root of your project. Lastly find the OS/system architecture you are looking for in the Makefile located in the root of this repo. Copy and paste it into your Makefile and you are good to go. Make sure to give your binary file a name by assigning BUILDARCH to a value at the top of your Makefile.

You can also copy the Makefile in the all_builds directory instead to have a lightweight way to easily build reproducible binaries for all 30 build combinations.
