Installation/Startup instructions about concourse-up HOT 4 CLOSED

@brasskazoo (cc @DanielJonesEB )

I've updated our CI pipeline to publish a windows binary, which you can download here: https://github.com/EngineerBetter/concourse-up/releases/tag/0.6.1

Please note that we don't currently have a way to test concourse-up on windows so although we do intensive system tests for the linux build — you'll have to use the windows build "at your own risk"

cheers,

Hi @brasskazoo,

We stopped publishing Windows releases of the binary as we had no means of testing them. Hence, you'll need to compile from source code using build_local.sh in an environment where you've got Bash.

build_local.sh itself calls go build, so you'll need to have a working Golang setup, and have concourse-up cloned in a proper $GOPATH.

If you have Golang installed already, try using go get github.com/EngineerBetter/concourse-up to get the code cloned to your $GOPATH, change into that dir, and then run build_local.sh.

Let us know how you get on!

Thanks for that guys, the windows release didn't work for me (I can sympathise with your issues testing on windows). I've ended up creating a centos vagrant environment for concourse, just using the standalone version for now.

Once I know what I'm doing a bit more I'll introduce the concourse-up build to that centos box!

@brasskazoo @DanielJonesEB if your using the windows binary are you still on your own? Just tried to run an info command on our deployment and got an error. It work fine when using bash on windows. My colleagues use Mac & Ubuntu and am used to being the odd one out lol - but just thought I would check. Thanks
