Go Compiler Installation

Install Go compiler on Linux for Go project development, compilation, and testing.

Use Cases

  • Go project development
  • Running unit tests
  • Compiling Go programs

    • Installation Steps

    1. Check System Architecture

    uname -m

    x86_64 = amd64
    

    aarch64 = arm64

    2. Download and Install

    amd64 (x86_64): 

    cd /tmp
curl -LO https://go.dev/dl/go1.22.0.linux-amd64.tar.gz
tar -xzf go1.22.0.linux-amd64.tar.gz
mv go ~/go-sdk
rm go1.22.0.linux-amd64.tar.gz

    arm64 (aarch64): 

    cd /tmp
curl -LO https://go.dev/dl/go1.22.0.linux-arm64.tar.gz
tar -xzf go1.22.0.linux-arm64.tar.gz
mv go ~/go-sdk
rm go1.22.0.linux-arm64.tar.gz

    3. Configure Environment Variables

    export PATH=$PATH:~/go-sdk/bin
export GOPATH=~/go
export GOROOT=~/go-sdk

    4. Persist Configuration

    Add to ~/.bashrc or ~/.profile:

    echo 'export PATH=$PATH:~/go-sdk/bin' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'export GOPATH=~/go' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'export GOROOT=~/go-sdk' >> ~/.bashrc

    5. Verify Installation

    go version
go env GOPATH GOROOT
