This repository provides go (golang) binary packages for

• AARCH64 (aarch64/arm64v8/arm64)
• ARMv7l (armv7l/arm32v7/armhf)
• X86 (i386/i686/ia32/x86)

as well as the Docker Image used for building the binary packages.

Extract the binary package from ./binary/go<VERSION>.linux-<ARCH>.tar.7z.* to /usr/local/ on the AARCH64 or ARMv7l or X86 machine.

If you don't already have 7-Zip then install it first:

$ sudo apt-get install p7zip

Now extract the binary package:

$ 7zr x -so "binary/go<VERSION>.linux-<ARCH>.tar.7z.001" | sudo tar xf - -C /usr/local/
$ sudo ln -s /usr/local/go/bin/go /usr/local/bin/
$ sudo ln -s /usr/local/go/bin/gofmt /usr/local/bin/

Verify that the binary is OK:

$ export GOROOT=/usr/local/go
$ go version

On the X64/AMD64 host, run:

$ cd cross-build
For AARCH64:
	$ ./build_binary.sh arm64
For ARMv7l:
	$ ./build_binary.sh armhf
For X86:
	$ ./build_binary.sh i386

This will generate the binary package go<VERSION>.linux-<ARCH>.tar.7z.* in ./cross-build/dist/.

Follow above instructions for using the pre-built binary.
You'll just need to replace the path binary/ with dist/.

On the AARCH64 or ARMv7l or X86 machine that you've installed go on run the following commands:

$ cd $HOME
$ mkdir -p mygoapp/{src,bin,pkg}
$ export GOROOT=/usr/local/go
$ export GOPATH=$HOME/mygoapp
$ export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

Now you're ready to compile your go application under ~/mygoapp/.
